In ESPN Australia and ESPN FC; Deep in the heart of Texas, the Socceroos had theirs broken. 🔗: www.espn.com/soccer/story... .

Renowned football writer @davidgoldblatt.bsky.social did not mince his words when talking about FIFA at our European Parliament event this week. #football #soccer #worldcup

So good @cathywilcox.bsky.social The go-to cartoonist …. #auspol

Hydration break!

OMFG Metcalfe channelled Holman there. Also too two ratings on FotMob were the two guys currently playing in the A-League. Best league in the world. #AUSTUR

There it is. The first ad break. Thanks Gianni, you dodgy fecker

Here we gooooo.

Very proud to be on the advisory board for this campaign. If of interest, please sign and share. ——— Infantino isn’t fit to lead FIFA. 
And FIFA isn’t fit to govern football. Agree? Add your name to this mass complaint: rebootfifa.com/sign?utm_sou...

This is amazing, and @fakehistoryhunter.net would be pleased not a helmet with horns in sight

Love the #ALeagueGF "I’ve never lifted the toilet seat as captain" - Ryan Grant. football360.com.au/rhyan-grant-... That a competing captain calls it that is brilliant

Good news! Sydney to keep Kisnorbo on for next season. For me, going past the sugar hit of mugging MV at home and overcoming the Jets over two legs to make the GF, it's his faith in young players and getting new things out of them that mean he's won me over #ALeague sydneyfc.com/news/sydney-...

I was annoyed that I couldn't find a database of David Attenborough documentaries where I could search for a specific episode by topic. So I made it. attenborough-100.vercel.app

A class at my kids’ school put up little statements about the good they want to do in the world and I was over the moon about this one - then I learned they meant to say “teach people in jail” which is also good!

🎧 PODCAST OUT…:FINALLY 🎧 Had some technical difficulties that are mainly fixed 🙌 Chatted through Nestory Irankunda’s potential move to one of the Big 5 leagues, Mo Toure on target again, Harry Souttar’s solid performance and the drama of the A-League finals. Enjoy! 😊

We all known A*azon tends to sell books bellow list prices, but I've recently found them selling books at below WHOLESALE prices. I know this because I own a store. That's fucked up. Anyways, support your local book stores. Shit's tough.

Social media apps as Lord of the Rings characters, a thread: Twitter: Twitter is Gollum. Began as a normal halfling. Overexposure to evil left it thin and stretched and bitter.

After almost twenty years on the platform, EFF is logging off of X. This isn’t a decision we made lightly, but it might be overdue. 🧵 (1/5) www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

This is an excellent summary of the US War on Iran current situation. I’m an existentialist and borderline absurdist and even I struggle with the current moment. This summary is just fantastic.

My cartoon pitches for Melania 2.

So QAnon spent years spreading conspiracy theories that the government was run by a cabal of elite pedophiles and it turns out they supported the actual cabal of elite pedophiles to get into power and destroy democracy.

This backs up the theory that Musk only wants to go to Mars because sex with children isn't illegal there

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds at the Domain in Sydney last night. Henry Lee (a complete surprise) and Red Right Hand. Proper lump in the throat to hear Shivers and the dedication to Rowland S Howard. The seeds are always great, but a lot of absent friends this time around

Montie thinks this is Farage 'blasting' Trump.

Last term I tried an experiment: I walked into my Tech and Design Ethics class, admitted that I had *no idea* what to do about ChatGPT - so I would let them figure it out. As in: their first project was to decide and write the ChatGPT policy for the class. Here's what happened:

So another 75 minutes with no subs. Let's just drive the same select group of players into the ground, while estranging the rest from any semblance of match form and fitness. This is my biggest Slot quibble, pretending that perfectly solid pros are a bunch of mugs #LFC #MARLIV

FIFA hurriedly cobbling together a Best Kidnapping Prize.

I worked with Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) in multiple countries to bring medical care to refugees and other populations at risk. There are a 100% committed, professional, non-political organization. Netanyahu banning them from Gaza is an unspeakable outrage. People will die.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

This festive season spare a thought for those who are locked up for taking bribes from the world leader I admire most.

this is not behavior becoming of a FIFA Peace Prize recipient.

Short back and sides outing there for #LFC. I'm more of a heavy metal football Liverpool guy, but not sure this manager and team can do that, so this will do. Didn't give up much other than when the ref gave inter good momentum late 2nd half
