Everyone is dunking on poor Noah Smith for getting lost and frustrated at Heathrow Airport and blaming him, which is victim-blaming and I am quite disappointed in all of you. Put the blame squarely where it belongs: on whoever failed to pin his name and destination to his sweater-vest.

Talking Oglaf with Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne: 'We'd stay up all night drawing stuff to make each other laugh' - The Comics Journal Other than some time off every year for Christmas, Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne have delivered a new Oglaf comic, skewering fantasy tropes with absolutely not safe for work humor, every week since 2008...

A rare interview with the creators of the always-funny, always-brilliant, and *usually*-sexy—or occasionally anti-sexy—OGLAF!

Cooper has kept a low profile over the years, but is legitimately one of the very best artists in comics today. Read OGLAF if you're old enough to drive!

Topic: Robodebt Case Legal Fees Question reference number: IQ25-000016 Asked By: Senator Jacqui Lambie Type of question: Spoken. Hansard Page/s: 9 Date set by the committee for the return of answer: 24 October 2025 Question: Senator Lambie: Services Australia, you lost a Robodebt case against Mr Warren before the full court. I'm just wondering what your legal costs for both Administrative Review Tribunal and the Federal Court were? I’m gathering it's about half a million and I’m being conservative. Do you know what the costs were? Mr Higgins: I'd have to take that on notice, Senator. I don’t have that detail with me. Answer: $776,739.02 including GST (where applicable) in relation to AAT, Federal Court and ART.

Wow, Services Australia spent three quarters of a million in legal fees fighting a losing FOI fight against @daedalus.eigenmagic.com
