This is the most Australian thing I have seen all week and it's a mood

At 1230am someone tried to get into my place, couldn't get through the gate and smashed up my security cam doorbell instead. (Rang the doorbell in the process, waking me up.) I called the police within a minute or too... And two and a half hours later no one has attended or even contacted me.

First off, my suspension has ended. Got a little harsh with a post a few days ago but I didn’t have my feet on the ground and I’m sorry if I offended anyone. Will try to be more chipper. Knock on wood!

It soothes my bitter heart to know that no matter how much money Elon Musk has, he will never, ever be funny t.co/QhuKU9HCxA

I'm not going insane, right? Valve have done console competitors before? I swear I wrote this over a decade ago.

Do you think the Fall of Rome was this stupid too Like your average Roman citizen, waiting in line at the food cart, saying "can you believe this shit"

"Mark my words, one wrong step in this town’ll land you in a whole heap of social services."

a quick thread of some of the references to Australia in the newly released Epstein documents that I found

Wow. We're all gonna fucking die from something that could have been prevented by maybe a few less billionaires. Ah well, nevertheless.

Well that's wild as political party name changes go

John Laws is dead. One of Australia's most successful broadcasters. As a teenager I rang his show. We argued for 10mins on air. He hung up on me with the words "you're obviously a loser in life & going nowhere. Goodbye."

The obits will never mention the time he had his own version of AOL in the 90s.

i dunno man they’re pretty strict on who they let be their spokesperson

There will be no Roger left unstoned by the end of this.

if someone is willing to pay for the products, i'd be willing to purchase these items, deconstruct them, and give them to expert tailors, shoemakers, and craftspeople for review. i will also see if i can track down the factories. i would be interested to know if these items are made in the US

Sub-lime

I would go full Miggs and just swallow my own tongue.

guys I’m sorry but have you looked through Getty images for yesterday 💀

Checking in on the US press to see how they're coping...

Tonight's even more proof the mainstream reporters who are still on Twitter are suffering from a brain problem akin Havana Syndrome that is preventing them from accurately doing their jobs. They are being cooked alive by a snuff-focused apartheid algorithm.

I am so upset. Last week Time Magazine solicited a piece from me on Zohran Mamdani & anti-Muslim hate. I pitched a framing re the dehumanization of Muslims & how Mamdani’s inclusive, socialist campaign in its content resists that. They agreed. I wrote the piece. 1/

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

You can't make this up.

Finally! Some goddamn good news!

For the love of all that's holy, please don't let Sussan discover a Sigue Sigue Sputnik album.

A rote and utterly unsurprising act of cowardice. Nintendo guilty of this too — wrathful punishment of IP use when the target can’t fight back, a No Comment when it actually matters.

I asked Microsoft PR about this—specially the DHS using Halo IP to recruit for ICE—and the company declined to comment.

I wish to know much more about the distraction-comfort-sedation triangle.

Trump Says He Won’t Rule Out Third Reich

I hung up a very light flyscreen curtain over the window to his catio and he was stumped. He spent the day studying it like he was trying to Ocean's 11 a vault door.

I want to hate this - I really do - but he just looks comfy.

“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.

As a member of the Australian media I must say: there's something deeply upsetting about newsreaders saying "Louvre" in a broad Aussie accent. Uncanny shit.

Comic book wikis rule. Like yeah Mongul of Warworld is divorced. It happened. Of course it's on his infocard. Mongul of WarWorld got divorced.

It's been unbelievably disappointing to me to see filmmakers like George Miller and now Alex Proyas being so pro-AI. I see them as scabs "The model for film-makers, who are the only people I really care about at the end of the day, is broken…" maybe try caring more about other people, Proyas

although some oppose the fifty foot hologram of a grinning Augusto Pinochet that appeared on the White House lawn this morning, we spoke with people from across the political spectrum to get a sense of how opinions differ

Wake up, babe, the least subtle visual metaphor in history just dropped
