I misheard Taylor’s Opalite lyrics as “I thought my HEART was haunted” and now I can’t stop feeling it

A 2 panel political cartoon titled “NAIDOC 2025: A Voice to Parliament Finally Achieved.”Top panel: An Aboriginal Elder with a YES23 badge addresses PM Anthony Albanese. She says:“Can we have a Voice to Parliament — to speak on genocide, systemic neglect, our right to self-determination, and to advocate for our communities with respect and honesty?”Albanese replies:“Uh… well… that would require a costly, divisive, uncertain referendum…”Bottom panel: Jillian Segal, wearing Israeli and South African flags as lapel pins, speaks forcefully to Albanese.She says:“We want to radically shape national policy and gain sweeping powers to censor speech — across education, media, the arts, and public life — to protect a foreign apartheid state currently committing genocide. Highlighting dead Palestinian children makes Zionists uncomfortable. We want that silenced.”Albanese, now smiling with blood on his hands, replies eagerly:“Say no more!!!”

Subject: Your Most Recent Tariff Missive(s)
Dear White House Strategists,
Sitting on eggs continuously for 54 days in minus 20 degrees is, frankly, easier than trying to make sense of your current tariff strategy. We've checked our calendars thrice-are we on Day 90 or 105 of this economic stand-off? We'd request clarification, but we're reasonably sure you'd sanction that too.
We're loathe to admit it, but on this matter we find ourselves in rare agreement with Brazil's President Lula: the world does not, in fact, require an emperor. Least of all one perched precariously atop a melting economy, dictating terms to islands most Americans couldn't point to on a globe even if bribed with krill.
Before these tariffs, our contact with humanity was limited to the occasional sunburnt glaciologist and a few UN observers who came mostly for the penguin chorus. Now, thanks to your trade aggression, we've acquired:
- Three fully operational F/A-18 Hornets (painted in icy matte, thank you for asking),
- The enthusiastic backing of several thousand confused yet passionate humans,
- A Press Secretary with a debilitating anxiety disorder (Miss Penguline Levity, whom we advise you not to email directly),
- And a waitlist of 47,000 immigration requests, 312 of which are from your own diplomatic staff.
This escalation has turned our quiet, flightless republic into an accidental geopolitical flashpoint. We are, as you might imagine, irritated. Not furious-just frostily disappointed.
Let us be clear: Heard Island has no intention of becoming a player in your drama. We are content to govern our guano-covered rocks with dignity, sovereignty, and minimal Wi-Fi. If this is difficult for you to accept, we recommend a long walk on thin ice.

Response sent to the White House. Summary: The planet doesn’t need an emperor dictating trade. Mainland Antarctica already has millions of Emperors, and even their droppings do more good than the White House’s globally destabilizing policies.

In other words, go take a long hike on thin ice.

I think we need to stop obsessing over the mushroom murders and turn our attention to the NT coroner’s inquest report into the police shooting and death of Kumanjayi Walker by policeman Zach Rolfe

Does marrying an undocumented immigrant grant them immunity? Just thinking outside the box that maybe some mass weddings may at least cause some roadblocks

Former Capitol Police officer: I would love nothing more than to move on from the worst day of my life.

But as current officials attempt to rewrite that day… and pardoned criminals are making runs for office… the true patriots have become "nothing but afterthoughts."
