I don’t know why hearing English people butcher trying to say “taco” and “Glasgow” irritates me so much

He not only lost his seat due to his outdated misogynistic views, that was the first time a Liberal or one of their previous incarnations lost that seat at an election in the 97 year history (til then) of the seat. He monumentally failed. So of course he's perfect to be party president.

Voting ON because you don't like the ALP is like setting fire to your pants while wearing them because you don't like their colour

We're building 200,000 new affordable homes for New Yorkers. We're using every tool we have to fix our housing crisis. Block by Block is the boldest housing plan our City has seen this century. It is what New Yorkers have been demanding for decades. Learn more about our plan here:

THIS! This is 100% behind the breathless campaign against negative gearing and CGT changes. Lower property sales values means less revenue for REA through their main website and their own broker, Mortgage Choice. It always circles back to greed for profits over community interest

Around 65% of News Corp’s value comes from its stake in REA Group, which owns real estate dot com, worth about $13.75 billion. So when their mastheads start clutching pearls, it’s worth asking who really benefits from the current setup

I honestly think I prefer rattlecan priming to using an airbrush. For stuff like a zenithal highlight airbrush wins hands down, but doing an even single colour coat over a mini? Rattlecan feels faster and a lot simpler #minipainting

This photo of Andy Kim in the moments before ICE gassed everyone at Delaney Hall is going into the history books. We need more of this from our electeds.

We all need to go back to wearing polyester trousers so we can build up enough charge to zap the cars

The prophecy has been fulfilled.

TV direction for the Montreal race still terrible. Top 3 all within a second, 4-6 in a super tight clash… let’s go watch the driver in 18th do a pit stop! Ridiculous #F1 #MontrealGP #sprint

A quick paint job to test the new Vallejo True Metallic Metal paints - this one is Imperial Gold. Lovely finish, but it took a few coats each of the base and light to get light coverage I was really happy with. Model by Fat Dragon Games.

You! I wanna take you to a Jaycar! I wanna take you to a Jaycar! To the Jaycar, Jaycar, Jaycar

Was just watching a random YT video from the UK and it looked like every intersection has had Reform fuckwits sticking St George Cross flags up. I can't believe people living with the shitshow that is Brexit are thinking of voting for that tosspot in a general election

Just a reminder that all the crying and fearmongering from NewsCorp papers today about the budget are 100% due to the massive profit they get from owning realestate.com.au and Mortgage Choice. Investors drive up prices which means more money for them.

If these Farrer numbers start flipping to Milthorpe in the larger booths, watch Hanson start echoing the US bullshit about a stolen election because she doesn't understand how elections work either

Nice evening walk spoiled only by the utter lack of pedestrian infrastructure where I was trying to go. I'd prefer not to walk between a crash barrier and a 6 lane road just to get some exercise

"We should stop trying to make the planet uninhabitable for humans" is apparently an extremist viewpoint. Where's that window gone, Overton?

None of us can cancel everything. But all of us can cancel SOMETHING. One eminently practical suggestion: Does your family have more than one Amazon Prime account? You absolutely don't need more than one! Cancel one of those tonight!

Before the system is introduced, it will be tested. In Victoria, a local test will happen in the Geelong suburbs of Highton and Belmont on Thursday 18 June at 2 pm, followed by a national test on Monday 27 July at 2 pm. Turn OFF burner phones that you don't want people to find. 2/2

AusAlert will be used across Australia from October 2026. AusAlert will be able to send warning messages to your mobile device as push notifications during: • hazards such as bushfires, floods and tsunamis • Public health emergencies • Biosecurity incidents • Security threats 1/2

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATZAH

@merricb.bsky.social hey, haven't heard from you for some time, hope you're doing ok.

Awesome. We all get to pay more so businesses can increase their prices to make even more money on top of record profits. Wonderful.

We have found the rebel bass

It always makes me happy seeing all the babby pilots up there learning and living their best lives

A wholesome story for nerds: On Saturday, I was signing books at a local bookstore for Independent Bookstore Day. The store had a signing-palooza with new authors every hour; toward the end of my hour, a woman came up and asked what my book was about. "Dictionaries," I said, and she lit up. 1/n

Doesn't matter how long you've been 3D printing or how much you say you don't ever want to print one... The first time you print a lightsaber it is friggin' amazing.

So very sorry to hear that Gerry’s gone. He was a ridiculously prolific writer and, as I found out in more recent years, a very nice guy. RIP, sir.

Gerry Conway has died at the age of 72. He started writing Amazing Spider-Man at 19; the same age as Peter Parker. I doubt anyone will match that record. Rest in peace, Gerry, and thanks for keeping me guessing all through the Jackal saga. #comics

As Richard Glover has said this morning, what he did was more like jazz. Doing things on the radio that nobody in their right mind would attempt, but somehow it worked. Those of us who admired him professionally imitate him whether we mean to or not, but nobody will ever do it like James.

James Valentine was a part of my lived experience from when he first hosted the Afternoon Show back in... a very long time ago. From there to 702 I've watched and listened to him for a huge chunk of my life. Deepest condolences to his family and friends

I was asked to describe Jason Statham today. "Temu Bruce Willis" was the correct answer, apparently

Without stating your age, post a movie that was released when you turned 18.

I feel like @gailsimone.bsky.social should keep this image on standby to reply to a whole buncha people all the time

Anyone checked if Ben Roberts-Smith lost his favourite mug?

Exactly one year ago today:

I love spotting future comic professionals in letter columns in old comics

It would be fun to have a competition to see if non-Australians could pronounce Australian rural town names correctly. Here are some examples: Wee Waa Boggabri Gunnedah Coonabarabran Murrurundi

I'm not sure if writing a stupidly complex excel formula counts as an achievement, but it's what I've got to work with

What will you do if the news breaks? I'll think I'll play Ewok Celebration on repeat for an hour #NotSayingIt #WeAllKnow

Gonna crash the UK economy by starting a rumour that Iran is blocking tea shipments through the Straits.
