Oh! Hereβs the same pic but now with less pink arrow because itβs prettier that way.
The Leader of the Opposition, his Liberal Party mates, and his Murdoch propaganda operatives got upset when my local MP told him to stop being racist after he put forward an objectively racist immigration policy proposal in the Parliament.
So this independent news outlet checked:

If politicians don't like being called racist, they should stop doing and saying racist things instead of blaming people who justly call them out for their racism.
Nerding out on a Sunday arvo with a new video from Andrew Scheps (aka MIxing Gandalf) on Mix With The Masters.
"You shall not (low) pass!" - is what I imagine him saying π

Yep. This 100% fits under the heading "comfort food".

Jeeze...
It's probably another lie because his mouth was open, but in a world of terrible ideas, this one should have any sane person sprinting - not walking, or even running hard - *sprinting* to vote for whoever *doesn't* have this idea.
Letting Elmo, of all people, decide what's 'government waste' and what's not is so absurdly dangerous that it directly threatens thousands of lives. It should be a red alert for SO many reasons.
It seemed like a great idea to choose these for some parts when I started working on them yesterday. It was 21ΒΊC. Very comfortable.
This morning, however, it decided to be 31ΒΊC, and the construction crew over the way was pouring concrete so all windows had to be closed and, crucially, all the fans had to be turned of because - idiot that I am - I committed to single-coil pickups and the 50Hz hum in here can be brutal.
Done now, though, and probably sweated off 2kg π
It's time for my annual pro-forma whinge about how frustrating it is when the national team in the only truly national team sport is playing a game, and the only place it will be broadcast is on the Murdoch-owned cable/streaming outlet. Not even on the publicly owned ABC radio.
I mean, there's no doubt at all that Scotland is gonna cop a proper thrashing, so it's not so much about missing the actual game as the principle of the Murdochs having the monopoly on the thing π€·ββοΈ

The only thing that might save the Australian Labor government next year is the worldwide trend of right-wing parties taking precisely the wrong message from losing elections.
They get thrown out for being too right-wing and seem to conclude that the way back is to go *even further* to the right. π
Note for American friends:
Voting independent here in Australia is not useless but rather gets you a representative in Parliament who actually shares *YOUR* views instead of the views that the Murdoch Right or the Labor Party has decided are the views one should have.
I like my independent MP a lot. She rocks.
Enthusiast.
I like guitars a lot. Maybe too much.
I also do music production and mix engineering.
