If Hanson "seems more and more like the de facto opposition leader", it's because legacy media - glosses over the racism - avoids testing her 'policies' - ignores disinformation that drives her support, and - rarely mentions PHON's #FarRight links. In short; keeps giving her an easy ride. #auspol

It’s overseas, Dead Kids is Australian. The Mouse probably didn’t care or notice, just like they ceded theme park territory to Warner Bros Movie World in Queensland with no competition.

You tell 'em, disinterested Go Nagai dressed as Dracula!

A disinterested Go Nagai dressed as Dracula, from his introduction to Go Nagai's Scary Zone (1989).

He is saying, "In this world, there are people who've seen UFOs and ghosts."

I wanted to take this time to share my appreciation for the great Maddie Blaustein, yesterday was her Birthday and she would've turned 66. If you didn't know, Maddie Blaustein was a intersex trans voice actress and she's best remembered as the voice of Meowth In Pokémon. (4Kids) 🏳️‍⚧️🧵 #maddieblaustein

Sam Altman said people are just gonna have to die in order to implement AI. In the very same week, Anthropic claimed it’s a human rights violation to be mean to the computer. These people need to be held accountable. They think lines of code are a person with rights but living people are debris.

It's funny sometimes how a book or movie can be inadvertently, obliquely important to videogame history. The canonical first real time strategy game was Dune II. Resident Evil comes out of a game tie in to a half forgotten Kiyoshi Kurosawa TV movie.

Fucking finally. Tokyopop tried this back in 2005 or so, & they famously only did the 1st volume, cancelled at the 2nd, & the one volume they DID publish they swapped around the chapter order because they didn't like how it read. God damn that felt like yesterday. Time flies.

In Crikey today, I have a long read on Canberra’s endearment with AI and the dubious promise of data centre riches. While Australia’s creatives are being sold down the river, you don’t need to fire up Claude to spot some cracks in the hype-doom sales pitch ($) www.crikey.com.au/2026/10/08/a...

Canberra is 'drinking the Kool-Aid' on AI. Where will it take us?

The Albanese government is treating the promises of AI and data centre investment like a digital mining boom. How does it sit within Labor's broader social project?

We don’t think the case for this has been made. One constant in the global history of policing is that every weapon given to cops, they will eventually use. Therefore, every force escalation requires compelling justification.

Disabled people deserve healthcare, housing, food and support. They deserve accommodations. They don’t deserve to be treated as “less than” because they can’t work. No one’s worth should be tied to productivity. Only the top 1% benefits from a system that leaves “non productive” people behind.

Having discovered that “Chevy Chase” in Wuthering Heights is actually referring to “The Ballad of Chevy Chase” from English poetry instead of the actor, I will not accept any inevitable hit piece biopic of Cornelius Crane Chase unless it has that specific title. What a ballad it could be!
