Same same.

The irony being that skepticism is the default position. If the weirdos want to prove their hallucinatory slop has value, they should be having to prove it...in a sane world.

Goose chase meme, top panel the goose says "WHAT BREXIT FREEDOM" and the bottom one it says "WHAT FREEDOM MOTHERFUCKER"

His Mum's writing an excuse letter as we speak.

Amazon laying off 16k while bribing Trump with a shitty documentary that no-one will watch is certainly a look.

Another idiot destroyed by hubris and Chotiner.

Surely at the moment agreements with the US are worthless?

A lot of 'it wouldn't happen here because...' thinking, when it absolutely would.

The surge in the One Nation vote should worry everyone (not least because aside from being horribly racist they are incredibly incompetent).

Australia being a crushing disappointment yet again by refusing to sign a statement condemning Israel's destruction of the UNRWA HQ in East Jerusalem.

He's the same age as me, plenty old enough.

John Howard is of course to blame - his policies kick-started the price balloon, all so that rich boomers would get richer.

I earn a VERY good salary and have a paid-off house under my belt and I still can't afford it.

Australia's house prices are absolutely insane. It needs serious government intervention, but only the Greens seem to actually care about bringing them down (i.e. more in line with average wages)

Sally was priced out of Noosa’s housing market. Now a houseboat owner, she’s about to be forced off the water The dental nurse says a new 28-day anchoring limit is designed to get rid of houseboats and clear the view for residents of multimillion-dollar mansions

When people ask "so when are you moving back to QLD?" the answer is "never, because I simply can't afford it".

Melania review – Trump film is a gilded trash remake of The Zone of Interest Dispiriting, deadly and unrevealing – there is a decent documentary to be made about the former model from Slovenia, but this one is unredeemable

Willing to bet there was stiff competition at the Graun to be the critic who got to review this film.

Suitably savage.

Suspect the gap is likely to be what I refer to as "PE storage" (potential energy) - hydro falls into this category but there are a ton of solutions that don't need water and are pretty compact.

Australia’s grid now relies on renewable energy as much as coal. Those who doubted it look foolish Solar met the majority of electricity demand between 9am and 6pm in the past week as much of the country cranked air conditioners

Some positive news - and as EVs and home battery takeup increases and we move to a distributed grid, it will only get better. Electricity is going to be stupidly cheap.

"You might enjoy raping underage girls with a famous film director who also likes underage girls" oh wait that was Polanski.

Every accusation etc.

God some people are really so thick they shouldn't be near a voting booth. Kier Starmer had been an MP for all of 1 year in 2016!

Okay 2026, so you took Catherine O'Hara. Dick move, honestly. To make up for this, you've got to get Trump too.

If Amazon Prime sub cost goes up this year, we know why.

So this is a list of countries that don't extort their citizens for medicines?

In Australia it could end up vitlrtually anywhere. It's like a fun guessing game!

Watched the trailer, it looks fun!

Between that and Daredevil: Born Again I'm gonna have to re-sub to Disney aren't I...

I'd settle for some sensible discussion, e.g. "Average house price should be about x times the average wage. Now what are the levers we can pull to sensibly achieve that?" (I'm sure there are others apart from those you've mentioned)

Scott Morrison accused of ‘deeply ill-informed’ attack on religious freedom after Islam speech Former PM called for national register and accreditation for imams, sparking backlash from Muslim leaders

Your daily reminder that Scott Morrison is a raging thundercunt.
