NRL News: REAGAN CAMPBELL-GILLARD HAS BEEN GRANTED AN EARLY RELEASE FROM THE TITANS (Campbell-Gillard is a rugby league player with a cartoonish moustache)

Set to pursue other opportunities such as tying damsels to railroad tracks or working for Cruella de Vil

After suffering though M1 traffic too many times I will never pour one of anything out for the Gold Coast

Watching the #nrlgf surrounded by Broncos fans like:

This was the only view we got of the first half highlights. Letterboxed amongst ads for a Kia Ute.

Yes but to be fair, only like 10 million people like Rugby League vs like 4 billion who like the other kind of football.

Everyone: I’ll make sure I’ve got access to a nice big TV to watch the Grand Final highlights.

Channel 9: Lol thanks, more room for Kia ads

Whatever the Broncos are paying Reece Walsh it’s not enough

They’ve given Joey a touchscreen. I fear he is now overpowered

Oops and now we’re back to the original reporter talking to Billy Slater on the field.

I wonder if someone came up and did something unbroadcastable behind the reporter and they had to dump it.

Somethings happened on the 9 news Queensland stream. Halfway through a reporter’s cross at the Olympic Stadium about the Grand Final they cut to 5 full minutes of ads without explanation, and then threw to a prerecorded story about crime rates.

Gotta find your own.

Reddit Post: I couran't stop talking about this stick I found during a hike with my girlfriend and she told me I needed to "grow up". I'm pretty sure the boys will appreciate it.

On K’gari it is not only very grown up to carry a cool stick, it is a basic safety procedure.

Visiting K’gari (Fraser Island) with family and it wasn’t until I got here that I learned that you have to carry a stick with you wherever you go.
This should be on the tourism brochure. Mandatory stick carrying is every dude’s dream.

I thought that adding more computer would fix the problems but now I just have different problems and less money.

We like going to Foghorn Brewery and the Comedy Club for a night out but we are boring suburban parents of 4 kids. Lock’s Paddock, Signal Box, Humbug, Bolton Street Pantry, Light Years all very good at the pricy/fancy end but there’s heaps of good stuff surrounding them too.

I am! Though I’m in Queensland for the school hols atm.
Watt Space Gallery & Lock Up v good. As is the Newcastle Museum in Honeysuckle for history.
Honestly if you start at Watt Space and just walk to Newcastle Baths and eat anywhere that looks interesting you can’t go wrong.

I’m your guy here. You like looking at stuff, drinking stuff, eating stuff or doing stuff?

RATIONAL ABC Radio National & and ABC •.. X News 32m • g Dan Tehan, the Shadow Energy and Emissions Reduction minister, has two views on why the opposition's nuclear energy policy wasn't popular with voters at the last election. • LISTEN: https://ab.co/3WiVFdL "The first is that we fell foul to a pretty dishonest scare campaign by the Labor Party. They put a figure on the costings of our nuclear program which wasn't a true reflection of those costings," he told ABC Radio National Breakfast. Mr Tehan said while some attitudes towards nuclear power had changed, there were some that had an "outdated mindset". "Now, there is some in the older generation that grew up with The Simpsons who still have those sort of outdated mindset, but most young Australians are very much open to it," he added.

YOU, SIR, HAVE THE BOORISH MANNERS OF A YALIE.

“There Is No Purge” 6 News Chief Anchor Leo Puglisi

Stalin after he’s clipped his last former ally out of all the photos.

Writing the book on Robodebt drove Rick Morton mad. Now it's won him $80k Journalist Rick Morton didn't want to write a book about Robodebt. Now that book, Mean Streak, has won the Prime Minister's Literary Award for non-fiction.

What a ride. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

Eric Adams is amazing because when he won every media person was leaping over each to go “this is the normal sane leadership that the political left doesn’t understand normal sane Americans crave” and then every day since that Eric Adams has been like “Leprechauns are real and I’m going to cook one”

YouTube video by ABC News In-depth Why Trump is blowing up boats off Venezuela | If You're Listening

Trump bombing speedboats off the coast of Venezuela seems kind of pointless. Until you look at it from a historical perspective.
This is page one in the Panama Invasion Playbook.
The full story is in the latest episode of If You’re Listening youtu.be/UrcROiL-IXI?...

I’m sure “politician secretly working with country that keeps threatening to nuke us” used to be a bigger story

Just recently @hankgreen.bsky.social had a good video putting forth a theory as to why a bunch of people are embracing certain drugs as miracle cure-all's. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QC9g...

Obviously there’s a lot to be said out of this but one thing that isn’t being discussed enough is how Jo Koy somehow still gets gigs even after the 2024 Golden Globes.

Partisan murders, good or not? We have the results

In the first Trump Administration it took 3 years before we got to the "insane off-the-cuff medical advice from Dr Don" phase. This time it only took like 8 months.
