I love this, it panders to the right edge of the LNP and ensures they will be unelectable into the future. L for LNP and L for LOSERS.

I’ve got Bob on but I’ve got the beer. Go well

If your leader’s rhetoric undermines the rule of law and truth and demonises opponents, don’t be surprised if anarchy is the outcome.

You voted for this arsehole with eyes wide open. He wasn’t hiding, this is his modus operandi

Who?

Trump, Netanyahu are the big two but it’s happening all over.

Everyone here was happy, full of the joy of #nature

Social media is full of hate for players. Homophobic, racist and just plain hate. I check FB just to see comments.

If you read comments on the Isaac Quaynor booing you just shake your head.

Can we just be better?

This week in #Australia we had a #democracy & Parliament working as designed. #USA citizens would be jealous

Political commentary focused on the "game" which demands winners & losers.

Thanks to @davidpocock.bsky.social leading the way.

Major parties & commentators get your act together.

Stephen Colbert on meeting the pope, being Catholic and the spirituality of humor

Do you think #MAGA & #Trump think Orwell's 1984 is a handbook for success rather than a cautionary tale?

AFL footy is my passion. But it’s the one place I can’t come out | Dylan Harrington I just want to be an openly gay man enjoying and playing footy. It’s that simple. Yet still, I cannot

Worth a read - always good to hear from the people that words and/or actions affect.

Always a great walk around West #Hobart. Spring isn't here yet, but it's coming.

West Hobart good karma, neighbours putting fruit from their backyard on the footpath for anyone.

Bounce to form & win it or bomb out, what changes at #Collongwood?

I’d let Howe, Cox, Dean, Mitchell, Macrae go.

Open to trading Elliott, De Goey, Cameron, Allan if we can get speed, size or contested inside.

Not sure - Hoskin-Elliott, Membrey, Markov.

Sidey - pull up stumps too.

#gopies

Hard to tell how good Hawthorn were tonight, Collingwood were that bad, no real pressure, fumbly, kicked terribly.

#AFLHawksPies

Old blokes at Collingwood pissed off we're chasing other players.

Most shouldn't get another year.

Focused on individual records, Crisp, Pendlebury & Sidebottom instead of team

#gopies

It's been a bad month

Terrible - we aren’t spoiling in defence, but worse is easily the Hawks are moving the ball through the center.

Ahh #USA you hold yourself up as a beacon of #democracy but on a regular basis we see this is BS.

Now it's Gerrymandering

Do you have independent bodies in that country? We have the Australian Electoral Commission to control boundaries. Nonpartisan.

#America the car crash, you can't look away.

Yellow wattle and blue sky

One of my #favourite things in the world is when the wattle comes out. The brilliant colour in winter never fails to lift my spirits.

#Collingwood depth/class looks a bit thin compared a team like Brisbane. Jeez, they bat deep and with so many of high class young players will be in the running for years.

We’ve got to find a way to switch back on, midfield is where it has to be.

#GoPies #AFL

Drop your knees when you take possession of the ball, that's your prior opportunity, HOLDING THE BALL.

If you cop one high, still holding the ball.

Players do it constantly to get a ball up and waste time or a free kick.

#AFLPiesLions #AFL #GOPIES

Ginnivan is such a good finisher. Pies win last week with him.

Bad loss when up by 22 early in the fourth.

-We didn't kick straight
-Dockers were very good -Dodgy frees
-No run from the backline -Bombed it into the fifty
-Clearance work is a problem

I hate losing, but I hate losing more when you have more scoring shots and lose

#AFLPiesDockers #AFL #gopies

Did I say not biased?

Got absolutely stitched up by the umpires

#AFL please let us play without umpires. Not biased just consistently inconsistent. It does fans heads in.

The acceptable alternative is fix the rules and then adjudicate consistently.

How the hell has Essendon got all these prime time games?

Meanwhile Collingwood are playing Fremantle on Sunday arvo!

The fixture is shithouse.

#afl #afldonsgiants

Just had an ad for a liberal bloke. Bloody hell, he's worse!

I swear the women the Liberals put up for election are a bunch of untrustworthy weirdos. Dodgy business people who'd sell their families for a dollar & look like they've sold their souls. Which I guess they have running for that mob.

#Tasmanian elections are proving my point.
