Aussie tennis fans if you are not watching the Davis Cup turn it on NOW. After being down 2 rubbers at the end of yesterday we are now one set away from the finals. Amazing stuff. #tennis #daviscup

I canāt stop thinking about this. I know how far the US has fallen but I still canāt believe a mainstream media personality advocated for mass murder of the homeless, got zero pushback from his co-hosts and it took days to surface. Itās depravity beyond my comprehension.

Another Adelaide crowd loudly booing an opposition player of colour. Vile. #AFL #AFLCrowsHawks

But alas only women get called out for it. I agree the wage gap is obscene but how do we know they werenāt a gift? She might also have splurged on the shoes after receiving an inheritance or from some other source of income.

Have you seen her (and Steph) in Great Australian Road Trips on SBS? Itās great.

I love that heās doing some AFLW coaching. I hope we see that side of him on the race.

OMG. Fev is wearing a watermelon shirt. Is #AmazingRaceAU going to be canceled before it even gets started?

Disgusting. No one should be eating Tasmanian salmon unless farmed on land like 41 South.

So is sending a bunch of armed navy seals into North Korea and allowing them to murder innocent fishermen. The number of countries with a reason for reprisal against the US is growing by the day.

Unlikely but itās good to have a practice run. As night follows day one day it will be true.

Absolutelyā¦and the upside if, unfortunately, he is still with us, is that heās sure to hear about the excited reaction to this rumour.

But when you add the attendees across the country Iām pretty confident they add up to 100s of thousands rather than 10s of thousands. Still maybe, just maybe, the ABC is starting to read the public mood.

Yes!
Maria (@mariaintassie.bsky.social) reply parent
10k would be closer.

How about some context HuffPost? Israel is busy bulldozing the olive trees and stealing more and more of the West Bank from the Palestinians, all with the support of the US.

Being the āwinnerā seems to be the only thing preventing Rockliff and Winter forming a coalition. The Greens and cross-bench are going to be the true opposition in this parliament.
