Don't know exactly when I became a radical extremist, but there was no going back after I decided that action on climate change was good and genocide was bad. 😕

*What!? Goldstein and not Queensland? Colour me shocked! *I’m apologising for the sarcasm but I’m leaving it here because it’s nice to not be in the hot seat for once. But WTFF Goldstein. What on Earth are you people thinking? Is this a Zionist thing…or? I can’t get my head around it.

The rule of thumb among Labor ministers, I am told, is "Ignore what's on the front pages. Get the right policy."

Just after the 2022 election I said (I think it was on Insiders) if the Liberal party didn’t read the room on climate, women etc - then it was consigning itself to irrelevancy. I was pretty roundly criticised at the time. But I do know what I’m talking about and I can pick a vibe

Peter Dutton is a multi millionaire - and we're meant to believe he's not going to help his son buy a home. Dutton is either lying or cruel. Neither are good #auspol #ausvotes25

If you are caught near live fallen powerlines, move away ASAP - jump like a kangaroo, landing on both feet That way you can't have one foot in separate electricity fields & cause an arc If you're in your car, stay put until emergency services arrive 🐝 #TropicalCycloneAlfred

Cyclone prepping. I don’t know if it’s enough. I won’t be able to prune the trees. The shops are already stripped and I don’t know what to do with the pot plants. Roof is checked and blowy things are secure though. 😟

Last week I had a social chat with a colleague. He is a smart, accomplished, decent, financially comfortable guy in his 60s. Yet he had no idea what was happening in the US. None. We need to remember we are an echo chamber. A lovely and intelligent one but one nonetheless. People are disengaged

Strange but fun time watching The Queen’s Gambit not remembering that I’ve read the book. I had to check if it even was a book. Don’t remember how I came to read it, the title, when I read it or where but I recognise everything and I remember reading the words.

Doc Neeson's family has condemned the National Socialist Network's hijacking of the classic The Angel's song "Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again." Link to post: www.facebook.com/615415007/po...
Hi Guys, 
Hope everyone is winning 🙂
It brings me no pleasure to write this, but in defence of my late father’s legacy and, quite frankly, basic human decency, I feel compelled to address the source of a testicular discomfort caused only by the most amoebish of modern Australia’s ideological cesspools: Neo-Fascism.
I generally hate discussing my personal views in public but this needs to be said;
For anyone who watched ABC's Four Corners program last night, you may have, like us, been disgusted to notice that the iconic audience call-back to The Angels' anthem ‘Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again’ had been hijacked by a group of, at best, ideologically naive dickheads, and at worst, gutless, fascist, neo-Nazi filth.
I understand that there is a lot of political, cultural, and socioeconomic tension in the world right now, and that in some cases, people are letting their tempers flare. However, it should go without saying that all forms of racism—especially the kind being pushed by these misguided Hitler enthusiasts—have no place anywhere, least of all in a world where Doc Neeson could write a song like AIEGSYFA.
I can assure you, Doc—himself an immigrant to Australia—would be absolutely mortified and enraged to see his music and lyrics being co-opted to promote fascist or racially intolerant ideologies.
None of us are perfect, but let’s at least have the courage, strength, and decency to do our best. Doc would never have stood for this kind of dangerous lunacy, and frankly, no one should. If anyone reading this still harbours these Nazi-inspired far-right beliefs, with all the goodwill I have, I strongly encourage you to reconsider how this hatred and fanaticism is truly benefiting you or your families.
In the meantime, please, if only even for the love and respect of a killer rock-and-roll tune, my family and I would greatly appreciate it if you would, unequivocally and incontestably, refrain from using my father’s music in whatever maleficence you variously seem s…

Unpopular but honest personal opinion: I really hate the term “rusted on”. It irritates the hell outta me for a number of reasons. …and no. I’m not one but I can understand where they’re coming from in terms of the current opposition. Bullying and belittling doesn’t help. #Auspol

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

Trump’s re-election has enabled Dutton the chance to play his role of a lifetime
The Coalition’s failure to release a single fully costed, credible policy shows just how lucky Peter Dutton believes himself to be.

Dear Australia We need to stand together. I submitted a petition to the Australian Parliament (awaiting approval to take votes from the public) to halt all cooperation, programs and our alliance with the US. This is not the bloody standard we are going to walk past.

According to the ABC, I'm raceless. Or white. Thank goodness!
What even is a Lebanese anyway? You gotta admire the ABC’s moxie in punting that one over to Antoinette Lattouf to solve.
