A Faragian, basically.
I love the look of the word ‘rigmarole’. It just looks like it belongs on an Italian menu in the pasta section. #wordsky
Better yet, Venus.
Avoid the Soylent Green.
Manifest Destiny.
If #BasilZempilas is your saviour, it's time to call stumps. #wapol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...
Pro 'piss' is what he said, and 'pro' is a contraction in this context.
He'll be back soon enough. Someone's bound to see the dye runoff and try to frack his head.
Renaming the Department of Defence the Department of War is obviously stupid, but it does lay the groundwork for rechristening the Health Department as the Sick Department, which is a good deal more accurate under #RFK than it ought to be. #uspol
If #Trump were to have a medical episode like a stroke, how could one possibly tell? His default setting is insurance write-off'. #uspol
What a clueless dick. People are obsessed with interest rates because their mortgages are fucking killing them! Take it from one who knows the pain all too well. These bastards are out of touch wankers rubbing salt into wounds. #interestrates #rba #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
Under a bunker, hopefully.
You know the plagiarism story connected to this, yes?
If it works so fucking well, why do kids keep getting fucking killed?
My heart goes out to you.
It's like dropping Liberace's piano on an actual roadrunner.
I think Trump uses them as makeup.
Hannah Arendt needs to be required reading in this day and age. The Origins of Totalitarianism is a stunning work.
Perfectly fucking reasonable sometimes.
Eg. RFK's brain is a foraminate coprolite.
Call him Bob Kibbeh from now on. He’ll love that.
The only common sense gun control is NO FUCKING GUNS.
I dreamed I saw him once.
Nope. They see some form of bravery. We see lunacy and criminality. No wonder they're fucked.
We're sure he's left handed?
The fact that most of those who die will be the spawn MAGA idiots is something that my conscience simply can't bring itself to enjoy. Children will die. Children.
Sometimes, it's good to remind oneself that eventually, the unholy Trinity of Trump, Putin and Netanyahu will die.
I remember the days when Prince Leonard of Hutt River Province was cute. How times have changed. These people are terrorists.
If you're 'observing' mitochondrial challenges, your brain worm is not only active, but capable of getting work as an extra in Dune.
Trump's arse must be like the fucking TARDIS.
Thank you! I’ll give it a listen.
I guess they're as determined to look as ugly on the outside as they are on the inside. #MAGA #uspol www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
This is fucked. An apocalypse would be preferable. www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
Tough day at the office for Bob Kibbeh. #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...
And in this pic, #BobKatter shows a journalist the correct way to wank off a bull. #auspol
I don't hate #BobKatter, but it can't be denied that he's a complete dickhead a lot of the time. Still, I've got uncles who are dickheads, so I guess I'm used to dickheads. But it's time for Bob to retire, and get a hat that isn't lined with mercury and lead. #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...
Well I can, because too many of you do. Until tens of millions come to their senses, you're stuck with being a more dangerous country - when it comes to gun violence - than over 100 countries in the world COMBINED.
Yes, it's rather like confusing patriotism with making flag-burning illegal.
Thoughts and prayers now needed at a venue expressly made for thoughts and prayers. Is this what gun nuts call convenient murder? #minneapolis This will never end. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...
Too bloody right. This bloke should be praised, not incarcerated. The price he's paid for outing criminal-level injustice is ridiculous. #auspol #ATO #richardboyle www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...
People who resent those who speak other languages are acutely aware of how little they understand anything, and they don't like it one bit.
Well put. Basically, 'We're small, shouty, insecure, and we don't like it. Please, we want to feel more important than we deserve to!'
It's always been that way. Pen, paper, printing press, phonograph, television, and onwards. But the impact of the tech has changed due to the concentration of wealth and power now at the disposal of those at the forefront of new technologies. Unbridled capitalism is the 'moral' validator of greed.
Dickhead.
You're not in Perth. We got to 11 degrees yesterday. If Spring had sprung it would have snapped.
When did he have a face transplant? And why did it go so wrong?
Journalist: Mr Whitlam, do you believe in abortion? Whitlam: Yes, and in your case, I'd make it retrospective. I believe we've found another candidate for what I shall call 'Whitlaming' from now on.
Not even Doctor Who will live to see the Epstein Files.
Guess the film by their pretend foreign language/translation titles: - Death is Painful and Difficult - White Man becomes Indian - Anatomically Incorrect Doll Movie - The Acceptable, the Unacceptable and the Aesthetically Displeasing - Prostitute Cinderella Love Story
What's worse? The fact he's saying it? The fact he's doing it? Or the fact so many millions believe he's right (and within his rights) to do so? We're positive #America can't be turned on and off again, right? Someone's checked? #Trump #Fuctocracy #uspol
Raise an eyebrow, say 'can't you tell?', wink conspiratorially, and walk away, smiling.
They did. It’s bullshit.
What about a Trump gif for fuckheadery?
Peta Credlin thinks she's ace, if that helps.
Racist fuckheadery would've been both more apt and more concise.
If you want to become Scottish, firstly, pronounce it SCAW-tash, and shift 'cows' to 'coos'. You're pretty much there.
Why does she look like a cross between Magda Szubanski and the KGB?
Good on you, #MitchBrown. You've shown great courage, not just now but through your playing career. I'm greatly saddened that you didn't get the respect and freedom to be yourself in your playing days that you deserved. I hope life treats you well. www.perthnow.com.au/sport/afl/we...
This makes me feel sick. Her parents are not well. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...
Just out of curiosity - as I'm unfamiliar with her work - has Taylor Swift ever written a song that isn't about Taylor Swift?
And why it won’t work.
Strange. I thought they’d be up to their bullet proof vests in murderers and car-jackers.
Vertigo? Gets me on occasion. Awful sensation.
Owners of Omega watches use just 0.00001% of their waterproof depth capacity.
That's a relief. The world doesn't need another political concept album from her right now.
How many tongues can lick Trump's arsehole at once?
Well, yes. I'm waiting for Trump, Putin and Netanyahu to die.
You'd see fish dragging themselves across the land to get away from that lake.
Because you can't mine them.
Yep. Millions of American idiots put him there. Good luck getting him out.
They need to be arrested - pure and simple. You can't declare yourself above or beyond the rule of law and still retain the rights of law-abiding citizens. Round them up.
I've seen more masculine paperclips.
Shortly after irrevocable damage has been done.
Fuck this #sovereigncitizen bullshit. Think the laws don't apply to you? Think the government is illegitimate? Well, as far as I'm concerned, that's terrorism or treason. It's a criminal ACT. Respect the laws or spend your life in prison until you renounce your crackpot bollocks. #auspol
The worm in Trump’s head was an extra in Dune.
Are we sure that’s what we’re dealing with here?
He WILL die. That’s it. That’s all I’ve got.
I’m amazed they didn’t book Ted Nugent.
It's the rural erotica wave I'm waiting for. Who wouldn't want to read 50 Shades of Bush?
If he can convince Trump that rectally inserting them accelerates weight loss and improves hair growth, he's got my best wishes.
Abbott would've pledged to shirtfront the Ayatolla and broken out the war onion. Dutton would've blamed the Sudanese and the Voice. Morrison would have appointed himself Defence Minister, inked an Arms Deal with Putin and gone to the Rugby.
The Uncanny Boomer Men?
Jack Black? From Tenacious L?
Dude, you're a legend, but you did nothing of the fucking sort. www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...
If my eight year old did that she'd be sent to her room.
By every measurable index, sending in the National Guard is surely more expensive that properly funding a police force and investing in crime prevention and rehabilitation. Which proves that either #Trump is an economic dullard at best, or laying the groundwork for a dictatorship at worst. #uspol
What the fuck's wrong with the back of his hand? Is that mould?!
I thought this was a picture of Mr. Snuffleupagus having a rough come-down. #Trump
You can add Australia to that list.
I'm sure he'll be a Trump appointee in no time.
Christ, tennis players can be precious bastards. www.bbc.com/sport/tennis...
Every which way but win.
This is a brilliant, brilliant story. #australianstory www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...
That is FUCKED.
First President to try and fix a fucked economy (that he fucked) with Spring Cleaning. #Trump #uspol #EpsteinFiles #NothingToSeeHere

I don't approve of this. It's poor-baiting. Leave a million lying around for dodgy CEOs to embezzle instead. #auspol #wapol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...
Sookaberg.
There's #Trump stupid, and then there's believing-Trump stupid, and finally, believing-Trump-is-intelligent stupid. The #MAGA trifecta of human devolution.
Is Trump REALLY this stupid? Does he still think Putin is someone who ISN'T playing him like a cheap flute? #uspol #russia #ukraine www.bbc.com/news/article...
