I understand that Australia once had a national anti-corruption body that might have been able to deal with this.

But they got too preoccupied with being investigated themselves for the Commissioner's questionable behaviour. #Nauru #auspol

Emails reveal planned job cuts at research funding body Research council staff face jobs amid 'secret' restructure.

This is quite an investigation into ARC’s proposed restructure & job cuts by @jennaprice.bsky.social.

You know you’ve botched your “review” when several staff complain to a Senator!

ARC also ran a witch hunt to find people who might’ve “leaked”.

Ugly stuff.

Yeah, but what if, like, the private sector had outsourced it to a different private sector? Think of the efficiency! It practically would have paid for itself by now.

/s - because you never know who'll take things seriously.

Agreed.

Maybe instead of committing atrocities, we could just make the rich pay their fair share and have universal healthcare and affordable housing instead.

Idk, just spitballing here.

What the actual fuck?!

Dear Lord. Centrelink says 144 different parts of its system have been operating unlawfully or erroneously.

This scandal of 44k overpaid debts is just ONE of the 144 issues they say they've identified.

The welfare system is in complete crisis & disarray

Single frame. Man at table with Netanyahu, Israel flag behind. Man says “How’s the ceasefire holding.?” Netanyahu replies, “Well… it’s keeping the ongoing genocide off the front pages…which was a distraction from my judicial crackdown, which drew attention away from our brutal settlement expansion, which kept my corruption charges out of the public eye…”

Nesting offences.

A lot of people in these replies getting their first impression of the kinds of software all political parties use to keep track of elector support.

Tim Wilson doing Tim Wilson things after cross-checking his database of electors is pretty damning though.

These are the sorts of demands aren't utopian. They're realist survivalist minimalism. #auspol #SundayShot

The Age and SMH removed Gaza references from Kerry O'Brien's Walkleys speech

The Age and Sydney Morning Herald have scrubbed references to Gaza and Palestine from their version of a Walkleys speech given by Kerry O’Brien last week.

A well-deserved third #Walkleys Award for cartoons to David Pope. #GazaGenocide

After over 18 months of research, interviews & editing our Disco Elysium series is here.

In this first episode we focus on the cultural and personal foundations of the world of Elysium.

I hate this inside baseball shit being such an integral part of The Saturday Paper these days.

Koutsoukis dishing the dirt on the ALP, after having worked for them for however long, is tedious in the extreme.

I’ve noticed Super funds have pivoted from “you can grow your retirement fund” to “how will you manage your retirement”.
They know no one under sixty has funds to grow. They know this because they have managed the economy to do this.
They’ll steal profits where they can and move on. #auspol

Single panel editorial cartoon. ‘Steer-way to Heaven’. A Barnaby Joyce bull has burst through a farm gate into greener pastures and freedom, rattling empty bottles and cans and taking a dump on a sign reading ‘Nats’ that he has just trampled across. A Pauline Hanson cow is leaning coyly against the fence twirling her tail seductively. In the distant background, a Littleproud poddy calf looks on.

The age of generative AI is truly the age of people just casually, with zero shame, discussing on public forums how thinkie hurtie bwainie.

Labor and LNP voting against a motion to recognise Israel's genocide in Gaza

If you weren't already convinced of what complict scum our entire political class is

Just thinking about the profound impact on our lives that the craven, selfish, petty choices made by ‘access journalists’ has had. Never working again is the bare minimum of accountability.

Single panel editorial cartoon. Signs saying (L-R going down) ‘mental health crisis’, ‘aged care’, ‘catastrophic fire danger’, ‘Palestinians STILL dying’, ‘caution bull dust ahead’, ‘no home ownership beyond this point’, ‘cost of living killing voters’, ‘Sudan 150k+ dead 12 million+ displaced’, ‘last rental for 1200kms’, ‘social support dire’, ‘heatwave storms cyclones’, ‘you are passing another extinction’, ‘emissions at 15.1 tons per capita’, ‘homelessness ahead’, ‘fossil fuel fantasies’, ‘old enough for prison too young for ubiquitous tech’. In front of all these signs is a large media scrum who have been distracted and are running toward a small figure in the background who has called out ‘burqa!’ and pointed off to the left.

The dismantling of Science in #Australia continues...

I remember that hopes were high in 2022 that the new Labor Government would end the decade-long decline. We are now in the second #Albanese term, and things are worse than ever.

They'll still be subjected to gambling advertising everywhere they look though, right?

Do better.

Cool and normal

Escalating disappointments until Gough’s angry ghost hurls a thunderbolt and incinerates the lot of them.

Well this seems entirely cool and normal...
