Just watched Hamnet and I’m not crying. You’re crying.

When I first started out as a journalist I thought it paid to have a background in US history when covering America. Then I thought it would probably be better to be a constitutional lawyer with expertise in jurisprudence. Now I think it would be useful to be a psychiatrist.

Indigenous Australians share the racist messages they receive online: ‘No one’s feeling safe’ Australia has announced an inquiry into racism and hate directed at First Nations people, as Lidia Thorpe says racism has ‘never been this bad’

But let’s just look at how racism and hate speech affects one section of the community.

Not like there’s much going down in the world at the moment. No wonder so many are turning to independent media.

I’ll tell you what, The Age has got its finger on the pulse, its ear to the street.

Thank you Bhakthi! Yes those two.

Never has more copy been written about two C grade douches in modern times. Why anyone gives a f&$k down here is beyond me.

Moderators at PETER VAN ONSELEN's 'Daily Mail' happily printing comments calling for the death of Laura Tingle, currently stranded in Dubai. This one of the tamer ones. Their 'House Rules' are just for show.

Of course America has a great track record with regime change.

Albanese flaccidly supports a war he wasn’t consulted on, had no congressional approval, has no clear strategic objective and makes the world a less safe place. So, so lame.

Release the Epstein files.

What a f*^kin mess.
