ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 04/10/2026It’s frightening how the quickly Roosters roll up the field almost at will whilst the Knights seem stuck in quicksand! That’s gotta take a toll, eventually . #nrlgf 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Now, if anyone is qualified to preside over a moral binding, it’s Donald Trump. Bankrupter of casinos, kids cancer charities embezzler, convicted sex offender, fraudulent university scam merchant, pathological liar, narcissist, grabber of pussies and overall enemy of justice. Yessiree! 010
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I’m pretty happy that David Shoebridge is the new Greens leader. I’ve always found him to be tenacious, thorough and uncompromising in pursuit of political truth. Good politics doesn’t have to be as hard as it’s been made and holding those in power to account is a crucial, if unheralded, function. 021
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Many contrary opinions around the justification of the interest rate increase, but nobody posits alternatives for cooling inflation. The RBA literally only has this one lever. And if inflation is rising rates will have to. It sucks for many people but doing nothing = more expensive stuff? 120
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I don’t trust the Guehi/Konsa pairing. England have ordinarily fielded solid centre back combinations for, well, ever, so this is uncharted territory. I firmly believe also that this is a result of the internationalisation of the Premier League. Bah! 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Pure drama. What a compelling contest. You want to say something to console Freo but that’s pointless. Beats the run away grand finals of 24 and 25. Wouldn’t mind a rematch of that next year. #AFLGF 010
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Fuck me dead. I had a “well played, Freo” skeet drafted! Honestly that’s the craziest end to a granny I can remember. Fagin doesn’t look like he could take another one of those 🤣 #AFLGF 060
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Most impressive aspect of today’s game so far is Freo’s forward pressure. Stifling. #AFLGF 030
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Morris and Loman very quiet so far. And Rayner. I guess that says something about how the Freo defence has setup and managed themselves so far. Freo ascendant in the third… #AFLGF 020

ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 20/09/2026For a while daily bird flu updates painted a bleak picture of extinction, but now updates be there none. Supposedly this means either the vaccination program is succeeding or the issue was overblown. 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 20/09/2026My lemmy client, Voyager, has a feature that allows me to interrupt infinite scrolling and it’s astonishing what a difference it makes!

ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Hawthorn are a champion outfit and I’ve a feeling that losing might be good for them in the long run. Could be a few Lions vs. Hawks grand finals in the next few years… Oh, and what a bloody game that was. #AFL 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 19/09/2026It’s the premiership quarter for a reason but how the fuck Brisbane stealthed their way to a 20 point lead from a 22 point half time deficit has me simultaneously golf clapping and head scratching! #AFL 031

ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 17/09/2026The most impressive thing I’ve seen today, hands down, is a Belgian woman using the word “happenstance”! Imagine such a command of another language? 👏 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 16/09/2026It annoys me that when an issue polarises that we’re expected to pick a side and attack the other. Most recently we either have to attack Ed Sheeran or support his support acts. Personally I support his support acts and sympathise with Sheeran’s appeal to keep politics out of literally everything. 100

ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Another negative aspect of the takeover of attention by social media and their algorithms is the lack of substantial discourse to air, debate, and affirm, adjust or refute ideas. The kind of thing that Question and Answers used to do very well. Now it’s just super charged hate. 000

ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 05/09/2026What sport has truly been improved by the introduction of technology? All sports rely on humans to officiate and humans are imperfect. Half the fun of being a sports fan is the feeling of getting done over by the ref & putting the world to rights after. Tech has killed the human spirit in sport. 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 05/09/2026This antisemitism Royal Commission really grinds my gears. IMO cultures or religions don’t get special treatment for what is legally discrimination. Further, the existing laws of the land cover crimes against people or orgs. Special dispensation for minority butthurt just muddies the waters. 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Sydney and Hawthorn both played with a noticeable intensity and sheer bloody minded will that Brisbane and Fremantle simply couldn’t match. Two champion teams rendered pretty harmless. Fascinating to see how all of the top 4 progress through the rest of the finals. #AFL 030

ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 03/09/2026The media, probably all media, seems guilty of interviewing politicians without challenging their words. Take Barnaby Joyce on afternoon ABC radio. An absolute grifter. Serial liar. Yet no substantive pushback to his absurd claims about socialism? Or expensive power? Or anything? Gah! 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 03/09/2026My mind has been boggling over preventing the degradation of recordable history, ostensibly to forewarn future civilisations.

ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 02/09/2026In a sudden moment of clarity I’ve realised that the answer to democracies troubles is to select govts as if they were juries. 3 year terms, randomly chosen, made up of a cross section of society. No politics, just here’s a budget and get on with the job. Same for the opposition. 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 01/09/2026I have to say I’m completely foxed by the system in the Premier League whereby Aston Villa have to sell players to comply with the rules, but Man City and Chelsea can sign whoever for however much. I’m sure the rule is clear, but still. On the face of it, it’s weird. 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 01/09/2026I remember when smugmaxxer Scott Morrison‘s corruption wrecking ball was tearing through politics and thinking “one day, mate, one day…not now but soon, you’ll get yours”. A righteous Labor govt would create a just and powerful NACC to seek out the guilty, prosecute and redress the balance. Wrong! 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Imagine if those sent to prison were relentlessly educated instead of simply being incarcerated? Either traditionally or vocationally, or both. Whatever. They’d be more likely to emerge back into society a better human. And imagine the need for educators to meet this demand. 000
ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Reading about robodebt and it horrifies me that as a species we seem to lurch ever rightward, the cruel and sociopathic side of politics, as an answer to perceived problems than lurching ever leftward.

ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 30/08/2026On some data centre disk somewhere on earth I need future civilisations to discover and note that, IMO, Dark Souls 2 was actually a fucking superb game and the shit it gets online is entirely unjustified.

ganstanley.bsky.social @ganstanley.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Labor could’ve opted to prioritise the welfare of its citizens crafting the gambling legislation but preferred to look after lobbyists and donors.
