Part of me loves that the Murdochs can't sell their cable network because it's pretty rubbish.

But the other part wants them out of it because they're holding rights to some good shows and sporting events that I'd like to watch but won't because I won't give them money for anything.

Wonders will never cease! The Labor government and the RW opposition actually agree on something!

Funny how they can agree to protect their cosy duopoly even though they disagree on every single other thing.

Yes, it's good to keep the billionaires out of it, but that's just an excuse to try to nobble the Independents and minor parties that threaten to make government accountable by stopping the major parties from having sufficient votes to form government in their own right.

The fix is in.

OMG, the three living original guys got Mark Arm from Mudhoney to sing, and Mick Harvey from The Bad Seeds (and lots more) on guitar, and they are playing in Sydney next Friday night ๐Ÿคฏ

I, too, believe that the Socceroos (which is a silly name for a team) can win games as long as they swap out the whole team for the far more experienced, successful, and less well-paid women's team.

Otherwise, they're not good enough.

So this excellent documentary turned up the National Indigenous TV channel tonight.

It reminds me of the way we resisted the National Front skinheads back then, but also makes me think that they might be n the parliament now ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Interesting film though,, and well worth a look if you can find it.

Was just going through some images looking for something, and this delightful reminder of better times popped up.

Imagine relying on a space to differentiate your brand in this day and age. The Montreal Alouettes should've called themselves 'Les Roughrideurs' TBH. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Someone tooted the other day about a guy who claimed to have voted for T**** because America was the laughingstock of the world under Biden.

I thought that was a pretty flimsy reason then because America absolutely wasn't the laughingstock of the world under Biden at all.

Now, however...

Then -> Now

The tideโ€™s further out today, but you can see that the sand is finally starting to come after being washed away by the โ€œunusualโ€œ storm activity (translation: new paradigm caused by climate change) this winter. It was โ€œunusualโ€ alright. Iโ€™ve never seen that happen.

The sandโ€™s covered up the rocks at the base of the stairs, and the beach is staring to look like itโ€™s looked for the 25+ years Iโ€™ve lived here.

Itโ€™s difficult to describe how frustrating it is when the video game tutorial tells you to set the speed at 230 kmh, but the controls wonโ€™t go beyond 229 and you canโ€™t finish the tute because you didnโ€™t tick the box.

This clip jolts me every time: Put aside the bald head, and the mannerisms and facial expressions are just so similar...

"All the power's in the hands
Of the people rich enough to buy it
While we walk the street
Too chicken to even try it"
