Happy Tasmanian Devil Average Birthday, to all those who celebrate! 🥳

Devils have an annual mating season, which goes from late Feb until late April. That means, on average, devil joeys are born on 1st April.

So if you wish a devil Happy Birthday today, you’ve got a good chance of being correct!

A bingo card titled “MICF BINGO 2026”. The card is a five by five grid, and each box contains a different item to check off. From top to bottom, left to right, the items are: - gratuitous musical number to showcase range - see a cooked late night show - crepe! - go to three shows in one night - fake text exchange as visual prop - joke about dating an AI - stand-up has a special lil outfit to perform in - “so I’m single…” - too many props? - see a solo debut - tech whoopsie - clown nudity - see Local Laws - buy some merch - joke that’s a thinly-veiled ask for coke - “the algorithm” mentioned - comedian clearly farming crowdwork for reels - beef between comedian and reviewer - see some sketch - full meal from 7-Eleven - see an act you’ve never seen - fee the vibe turn at 3am at the artist bar - “I’m (insert age here)” as a punchline - this live podcast is just two comedians turning their friendship into a job - whoops! Horny for some goofball!

It’s almost time for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, so for the ninth year running, I have made a bingo card for it.

people who say that all creative endeavor can be replaced with AI probably need to reckon with the fact that all televised sports events with human athletes could easily be replicated by high-definition computer-animated simulations….and yet we don’t do this and no one seems to want to.

Beware the new 'normal', it might be about to bite us Some people just like power. Those same people enjoy sowing seeds of discord that they never have to actually solve, in order to keep it.

"Political and media classes will always try to shape right-wing anger as legitimate, while continuing to treat pushback as radical. (Just look at how the man who apparently hurled a “device” into a peaceful Invasion Day rally is being treated in the media)."

This wheel is to the boy squirrel the way that the football is to Charlie Brown and it still makes me laugh every time he tries to use it only to be immediately spun.
