Knights Without Amour – Arena Critical * Radical * Australia * Earth

Knights Without Amour, Jack Hynes, Arena, March 2025:

'RAM is one ex of the increasing tendency for far-right & fascist grps to use gyms to mainstream their political ideas, attract new members & advance reactionary politics.'

In AUS, see: National Socialist Network.

Victoria’s Public Sector Union Is Facing a Reform Challenge For 32 years, the same faction has held leadership in the Victorian branch of Australia’s public service union.

This ban ended up grounding half the regimes jets. There is an excellent doco about it called, and I kid you not, "Nae Pasarán"

BP to raise oil and gas spending to $10bn a year in pivot away from green goals Firm confirms plans to scale back green energy efforts and ‘fundamentally reset’ strategy

As expected: BP will be giving up on greenwashing and misleading targets and instead be honest about its long-term, long-held strategy to expand the sale and use of fossil fuels

Would have been cool if he came

What does Trump’s second term mean? Trump has put out many warnings for his second term, but tensions and contradictions mean it might not go as planned.

On the telecast, Courier said he ran into Cahill during the subsequent break in play. He revealed Sinner was not feeling well that morning. It's fine to take a MTO for illness, but faking an injury in a sensitive area to receive the treatment off-court in *airconditioning* to cool down. Cheating?

lmao no, TikTok users are not moving to Bluesky. They would literally rather learn Mandarin than learn how to read a feed of text posts. This is a millennial retirement home.

Welcome, teens coming here from tiktok. I think you’ll find that through the magic of the written word I am able to craft sentences that are as vivid and compelling as any short-form video!

All for her giving g it back, but I would suggest that banter on the theme of "I'm richer than you" is pretty lame

My two favourite women tennis players. Good on you for giving them more coverage.

I have a new idea for a Bounces story. Jack Draper just used a hanky. A hanky! So many questions follow.

There's a rejoinder to this, somewhere between those two famous aphorisms about "dancing about architecture" and "it not being my revolution if I can't dance". Anyway, I reckon go to the forum, you don't need lessons, just jump around and feel it

On his PTPA video message, he says what is presumably the real way he says his name. Gumshoe, get on the case! 🕵️‍♂️

Here's a Bounces story for ya: how many players mispronounce their names on their ATP Player Profile webpage just cos they think it will be easier, or possibly in Corentin Moutet's case, for trolling giggles. I had to look this up cos all the local TV announcers were saying Coren-TIN Moo-Tet.

Highlight was John Lithgow using a Nespresso

four grainy, desaturated old video stills, first a conservatively styled woman with red hair smiling at the camera, second a hand reaching into the frame to slam a pie in her face, third a man holding his hands up looking grim, fourth the woman again with her head in her hands, full of pie

we must remember anita bryant as she lived

Flirting and To Die For are my favourite films of hers. Also, The Bangkok Hilton was a pretty major miniseries that Kidman was in early in her career. As a falsely imprisoned drug smuggler in a Thai jail, she conveyed some tonal range which maybe we maybe don't associate with her today.

It’s lucky Australia has AUKUS so we don’t miss out on the conquest of Greenland!
