Blackbirding continues in Australia to our absolute shame. Fruit pickers in the Riverina in legal slavery, picking the food you will buy tomorrow at the major chains. #auspol #fourcorners #pacificpartnerexploitation

America can go fuck itself. Tariff increases related to slavery in our supply chain 🤪 !!!??!?. Don't want to hear about "reasonable Americans" or "we didn't vote for him". This administration represents YOU. No friend of Australia. #auspol #americanidiots
Embolo has his FAFO moment. Simulating on a yellow card then inconsolable about the red card. Owes his Swiss team mates an explanation before making his hollywood debut. #fifawc2026
The NRL announcing a new broadcast rights deal as a lever to world domination. A massive delusion of grandeur for a code that struggles to penetrate more than 3 states in Australia. I say this as a diehard Newcastle and Rugby League fan. Cynical drive for gambling $$$$$. #nrl
Elite diving in both matches so far today. #worldcup #triplewithhalfpike

Loving the vibe of having the USA as our mortal enemy. #worldcup #australiavsusa
Being an Aussie with Dutch parentage, yesterday was all about the Socceroos. This morning is the Oranje. Get it Holland !! 🍊🇳🇱 #worldcup #netherlandsvsjapan
You just know many of the people wearing green and gold and cheering the refugee Australian #socceroo striker Nestory Irankunda as he scores for us, are also the ones telling pollsters they think the dumb racist Pauline Hanson is the answer to their perceived woes. 😏
The MAGA embrace of "soccer" incoming in 3 .. 2 .. 1 #worldcup #usavsparaguay
The calm, measured explanation by every Israeli apologist / mouthpiece of how Israel is bombing the shit out of every neighbouring country in the name of humanity is jaw dropping. Can someone prominent please call bullshit ? #auspol #730Report #israelwarcrimes
Seriously .. fuck the Swans. Cruel game. #afl #swansStKilda
Is it an each way bet that if you call the NSW police in a moment of need that you will be -: - Mocked ? - Discredited ? - Assaulted ? - Charged ? - Assisted ? I pity the good ones. You don't know which one is coming to your door - most will assume the worst. #fourcorners #NSWpoliceviolence #auspol
1/ The rhetoric of absolutes used by our political leaders with regard to the "Isis Bride" group is so disappointing. They can't be seen to give a soundbite of weakness hence their group vilification. Zero nuance from seemingly intelligent people. #auspol #isisbrides
Watching Season One of Rivals and it is a rollicking good time.
Reduce your force. Halftime. Knights 32 - Dragons 0 #nrl #knightsdragons
A cautionary tale for EV owners who think they are comprehensively covered by their vehicle insurer. #EV #insurancescams

Expected rate rise confirmed. My premonition confirmed- ABC News channel race to announce they will give Taylor and Wilson clear air to howl down the Government as a result. Expecting Taylor's observations to be more shallow than a kiddies pool. #auspol
By delusionally binding Australia to the fossil fuel industry, we risk becoming the betamax equivalent of the world's future energy model. When demand for our coal and gas dries up (and it will), the clever country will be left wondering what happened. #fossilfuels #climatechange #auspol
I left the state for 3 weeks and came back to find we had elected a TV presenter as Lord Mayor. Putting TV talking heads in governmental positions has unfortunate precedent. 😐 #auspol #newcastlecouncilelection
I'm nauseated by politicians using "I think we can all agree", to preface their baseless claims, as if they were recounting an immutable law of physics. Yes, I see you Jane Hume. #auspol #afternoonbriefing #abc #lnpopensewer
Hey @albomp.bsky.social and @senatorwong.bsky.social. Look - it is easy to say this stuff and the ground won't open up and swallow you. #auspol #israelgenocide
This week, I will be forcing a vote on legislation to block the sale of nearly half a billion dollars worth of bombs and bulldozers to the Israeli military. The extremist Netanyahu government that has committed genocide in Gaza does not need more military support from American taxpayers.
I'm working up a film treatment where the astronauts witness the destruction of their planet and have to re-route to a new world for survival. Thinking it's a bit far fetched ... #armageddoncinema #scifi #nasa
I just love seeing how happy they all are 🥲 #Artemis
