We keep telling the government - we don't want automated robo-debt, or data centres everywhere, or aged-care assessment by algorithm, or non-professional NDIS decisions. Employ real people. Pay real wages. Fix hospitals & schools. Tax the squillionaires & giant companies. Can't be any clearer.

Thanks to Kon Samaras for writing this ... I can feel his searing hot anger in every word. johnmenadue.com/post/2026/10...

I'm last to the Shane Gillis discourse, but here I am. Let's go. There's much more to be said than can fit here in a 90 second clip so for my full comments, listen to the intro to this week's Savage Lovecast, out now!

I know I'm an old stick in the mud, but I think it's reasonable to expect the actual president of the united states, who started the fucking war, to be the one with the solution for the problem he caused, and this Orson Welles Care Bear ought to be locked up in a submarine brig.

You guys I’m worried that we were tricked by AUKUS

It blows my mind that TRUMP has limited Ukraine’s access to Starlink so its drones are not able to go at full speed, limiting its defence against Russia. TRUMP IS LITERALLY SABOTAGING UKRAINE TO HELP RUSSIA. Why is Australia a US sycophant when the US is siding with Putin? @albomp.bsky.social

It’s almost here!

Jacqui Lambie drops Senate bombshell after a whistleblower & fmr Navy member has just revealed hidden cameras have been found inside female bathrooms onboard Cairns Navy ship HMAS Leeuwin😳 Lambie “It’s out of the bag! There you go reporters, give the Navy a ring!” Wake up Media

My latest in the Guardian is about how Australian workers are getting older but the workplace is not growing up.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

This guy has been and still is my ‘human university’. By that I mean he’s taught, inspired and echoed my inner thoughts & theories more than any other human I’ve ever come across. Here he is talking about humanity’s “circling the drain”. His name — GEORGE CARLIN.

I only met Chrissy once. She had a memoir out and was performing at a booksellers' conference. She was so nervous. Literally shaking. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUDj...

How are those "shared values" going, @albomp.bsky.social ? #EndAUKUS #auspol

There's just way too much to be very cross about, today. The Australian government investing OUR MONEY in EllenMusk's stupid space project and weapons companies is next level crap. I've disagreed with governments before but I've never been this disappointed in one.

Hey WORLD❗️🌍 🌎 : ANYONE OUT THERE HAVE THE 👺EPSTEIN FILES👺❓❓❓❓ Anyone? Anyone?

The US situation is what will happen here if One Nation & a lot of Lib/National Party politicians get their way. Pregnancy is the biggest statistical risk to women's health - after ex- and partner violence. The next politician to say a version of 'feminism has gorn too far' should be abyss-hurled.

Can male politicians, influencers and public figures get a grip and stop acting like women have declared war on you. They haven’t. Wanting an end to women being raped and murdered by men and boys being radicalised to hate, fear and resent girls and women is a good thing.

Will Marles meet with Hegseth's spiritual advisors too? Evangelicals who believe wives should submit to their husbands; women should not vote; homosexuality is a crime; defend slavery. Believe that the US should be a theocratic state? The people he bends his knee to in his pursuit of a Holy War?

Yeah, will anyone in the Canberra press gallery do their job & ask Marles his opinion on Hegseth's purge of US military leadership/staff who are not clean-shaven, straight white cis-men? Does he agree with it? Will it affect choice of ADF personnel working on joint projects? Why is he such a weeny?

The Nerd Reich wants to destroy democracy, and its mask has slipped

The Reckoning Yep... @birmo.bsky.social A climate change disaster. “It’s just murder, honestly.” aliensideboob.substack.com/p/the-reckon...

A valediction. My @smh @theage cartoon.

How is it that data centres can just “pop up” around the country?

Just one more reason to loathe Elmo ...

Man interrupts dog.

He also offers valuable lessons about how humans can interact – safely and responsibly – with marine wildlife.

It’s sometimes hard to say who the cuntiest cunt in this cuntish administration is, but Hegseth is a strong contender. www.militarytimes.com/news/your-mi...

Safety of women and girls under national spotlight again after four alleged murders in four days

So terribly sad to hear of the death of Sam Neill - someone I was privileged to call a friend. Funny, kind, welcoming,remarkably talented, curious... arms always wide open with a greeting. Vale 🥺 (And fuck, fuck, fuck it !)

Sam Neill with John Clarke in Death in Brunswick.

This 1972 anti–Vietnam War ad for McGovern captures a timeless truth: protesting isn't enough; we must vote. Imagine if profiting from war was illegal worldwide. As John Stuart Mill said, bad men win when good men look on and do nothing. Let’s act. Do something.

Agree entirely, ‘autobesity’ is out of control, cars and SUVs are dangerously oversized, especially in a city such as Paris. Get these luxury tanks off the road.

A new survey shows Australians have made their mind up on Donald Trump and are questioning why Australia needs its closest ally.
