Not the USA! but thanks for completely stuffing that up for everyone in the entire world. Brilliant move, absolutely brilliant. Trump is a genius. The straight was open for all, 6 weeks ago, now closed or via toll. I can’t emphasise enough how brilliant that move was.

No shit! What do you expect from a recalcitrant petulant baby with zero concern for the American people. Unless they’re billionaires. I’ve got an idea let’s elect a psychopath, he will care about the farmers! What we need is a total narcissist in charge coz that’s just brilliant

Dear Americans, please dear god just leave the world alone. You voted for America first and fell for a psychopath. So now do something about it or just get the psycho in chief to leave the rest of us alone. Seriously Americans do something to stop this!

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

Australia has a gas export problem. Australia Institute research shows 80% of Australia’s gas is exported by foreign-owned gas corporations...who then tell us we have a gas shortage. Australia has enough gas, it's where it's going that's the problem. #auspol

The LNP still haven’t changed their views on Aboriginal Australia. Even now Dutton’s gone the whitewash continues. The LNP heritage of colonialism reigns supreme. Stuck in the past and not acknowledging any truth telling. Only once Australia is honest can we move forward.

‘Anthony Albanese says the nation is still coming to terms with the "full truth and toll" of colonisation on Indigenous people.’ This is what a lot of Australians struggle to understand. I have heard people say “they need to get over it” and it’s such a shit comment.

Australian beer is damn good mostly, lots of boutique breweries now, but I always find 1-3 beers “yeah this is chill”, 4-8 beers “fuck yeah how good is it”, 9-12 beers, “I love you mate”. And anything above 12 is “what are you looking at, go on throw one then”

And people whinge about stopping multimillionaires using Aussie super as a tax haven! While the average Aussie can’t afford to chuck a prawn on the Barbie. I get that inflation is more supply driven right now but FFS the banks make billions in profits while we all get shafted.
