There is no version of yourself you could become that would satisfy the people who hate you. So you might as well be who you are.

Baffle no more. My @smh @theage cartoon.
Single frame. Intro: “Baffled at how a racist grifter who’s been flogging her schtick for 30 years with minimal success has suddenly shot to prominence? I present: A PLEASE EXPLAINER”
Series of illustrations: “THE STRATEGIST” Steve Bannon saying “Flood the zone…” “THE MODEL” Trump saying “Fake News murderers and rapists drill baby drill…” “THE BILLION/TRILLIONAIRE PLATFORM-OWNING HATE-SPEECH-LOVING AMPLIFIER (et al)” with Elon Musk performing the Nazi salute; “THE VESTED INVESTOR” with Gina Rinehart holding a toy bulldozer saying “BRRRRRRRRR”; “THE PRODUCT” Pauline Hanson saying, “Trashy journalist no good Muslims trans insurgency climate hoax”; “THE INDONESIAN BOT FARM* (and Vietnamese and Indian) Pumping out AI content and disinformation to boost Hanson and attack her political opponents”; “THE AVERAGE PUNTER” bloke looking at his phone which is pinging, saying “She seems authentic…”

Trump is removing devices that track climate change in our oceans. Because they don't work? No, because they work too well and provide inconvenient data! Apparently, climate change is like COVID, if you don't track it, it doesn't exist. Truly, we are living in the most destructive, stupid times.

Last week, acting AG Todd Blanche claimed the DOJ has released “everything” related to the Epstein files. But that’s not what the evidence shows. Millions of documents remain unreleased. The claim that “nothing is left” doesn’t add up.

Two young women with drinks and snacks on their table look up at us a little warily, as if caught by a passing photographer, in this 1930 painting by Italian artist Carlo Vitale. The mirror on the wall depicts other customers in the busy café

I’m enjoying French artist Maurice de Vlaminck’s bold use of vibrant colour and short, bold brushstrokes in ‘The River Seine at Chatou’ (1906, Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY)
River scene, trees on left foreground, an assortment of boats on the water, view of green riverbank stretching into the background

Priorities in line. My cartoon in today's @theageaustralia.bsky.social and @sydmorningherald.bsky.social
A political cartoon by Megan Herbert showing various people filling up their various vehicles at a crowded petrol station. At the font of the queue is the NASA moon rocket Artemis II, being filled up by an astronaut. Next is a registered nurse driving a modest, older model car, in line with everyone else and filling up without any special provisions despite the fact that she's an essential worker. Waiting behind her is an oversized Ute clearly not being used for utility purposes but rather as a recreational vehicle. Its driver, leaning out of the window, yells at the astronaut, "Oi, gas guzzler! Leave some for the rest of us!", which results in an eyebrow raise from the RN.

In a turbulent world, take this opportunity to wallow pleasantly in nostalgia, as workaday people line up under the glow of a streetlight at their cosily-lit fish and chip shop. Artist Chris May did this painting in 2025 but it vividly evokes a Britain of the 1950s

Close-up macro of a bumblebee clinging to a cluster of bright green-yellow catkins, its fuzzy black and golden body dusted with pollen. One hind leg is raised as it grips the plant, translucent wings folded along its back, while sunlight highlights the fine hairs and textures against a softly blurred background.
