Lucy Zelic is so insultingly dim.

If we returned to those times, most women wouldn’t be allowed the opportunities she has (or even have a credit card)

But she genuinely thinks she’d be exempt from that because she thinks she’s exceptional

David Draiman from Disturbed has spoken out about Bob Vylan chanting "Death to the IDF" at Glastonbury, calling it "disgusting"

Here's Draiman signing a bomb that was later dropped on Gaza

Reading Anthony Albanese’s speeches on the Invasion of Iraq & Australia’s fealty to American militarist empire in 2003 & 2005 is enough to make you feel insane. Imagine if that man - now strangulated by his middle-aged neocon doppelgänger - were PM.

Remarkable.

MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful."

Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd.

Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

How is this not a war crime? How this not a green light for Iran to target Israeli or U.S. civilian scientists in return?

The most maddening thing is that it would be perfectly fine to write "9News reporter shot by police" because it is it accurate, true and backed up by the video footage.

Even *if* the cops want to claim it was accidental, to word "shoot" says nothing about intent.

We're using passive voice to lie.

I’m an atheist, but Pope Francis has my respect, he was a great man and the Catholic Church is lessened without him.

‘It was a mistake’: Australia fails to sign up to $163b research fund As Australia loses research funding following a Trump crackdown, academics believe the government has failed universities by rejecting multiple invitations to join Europe’s largest fund.

As Trump regime threatens research that doesn't espouse his fascist ideology, Australia's largest partner is now unreliable. Walking away from repeated offers to join largest fund in the world, Horizon Europe, was always a mistake. Now it's a grave error. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/2025/03...

In June 2020, Danyal Hussein stabbed to death two sisters, Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman, in London’s Fryent Park as part of a sadistic attempt to win the lottery by murdering random women. When the victims’ bodies were found, two officers from the Metropolitan Police were assigned to guard the crime scene. Those officers, Deniz Jaffer and Jamie Lewis, left their posts on the cordon to take photos of the dead women, superimpose their own faces on them, and share them to a WhatsApp group named “Covid Cunts”. They referred to the sisters as “dead birds”. Days earlier, Jaffer had bragged on WhatsApp about covering up an assault on a group of Asian men.

A review commissioned after Everard’s murder found that the Met Police was institutionally racist, misogynistic, homophobic, corrupt and yes, disproportionately white, which many Londoners could have attested to directly without the need for an inquiry. It certainly sheds some light on the decision to charge a gay woman of colour with racially aggravated harassment for the crime of trying to explain the concept of white privilege while drunk. 

The spurious charges brought against Kerr can most properly be seen as part of a pattern of harassment of women and ethnic minorities by the Metropolitan Police. Following the crackdown on the Sarah Everard vigil, one of the arrested women, Patsy Stevenson, was bombarded on Tinder by at least 50 serving police officers, a tactic she said amounted to intimidation

A vast amount of time, money and whatever constitutes the digital version of newsprint has now been wasted on a night out in which the only people who had any reasonable fears were the women who were locked in a taxi and disbelieved by the police. Yet despite the entirely appropriate not guilty verdict, the focus remains on the perceived sins of Kerr rather than those of the police officer. Questions raised in the Australian media about Kerr’s fitness for sporting hero status and her suitability for the Matildas’ captaincy are disingenuous at best, especially those that hinge on her gender.

Kerr calling a cop a ‘white bastard’ isn’t reverse racism — precedent proves it

But then again, perhaps this is to be expected from a sports media culture that not too long ago witnessed a “sportswoman of the year” award being given to a horse.

I wrote about the rank hypocrisy of an institutionally racist, misogynist and homophobic police force pursuing Sam Kerr in the courts, and the absurd reaction from the media over her perceived damage to her 'reputation', for my friends at @crikey.com.au.

The numbers don’t lie. The club has just been woefully mismanaged for a while and it’s all under the current board’s watch.

They’re going to banking on another MCO outfit to come in and bail them out, despite a good chunk of the supporters being vehemently against MCO.
