The US has returned to 2015/16, learned nothing. Next year we have a federal election in Australia. Let’s not go backwards. Let’s vote for candidates who will represent us and our electorates well and serve the country well. Don’t vote on old party loyalty, vote for a better future. #AusPol

#AusPol folks, write to Albanese, politely, tell him we need to move away from our close ties to the US and stand for free democracy. Google his name, his official contact forms will come up. #CancelAUKUS

The rich, powerful and privileged are holding their fists up in the air as a symbol of their fight against . . . luxury? Easy lives? Their grandchildren being provided for by massive tax free trusts? What are the fists for?

Off to the big hospital to get my nodule poked. Wearing my second best underpants in case things get serious. Hospital cafeteria lasagne, an unlikely favourite, shall ensue this indignity.

Four months after applying for the NDIS they just called to say I have to produce the same medical report, but from a different medical professional. They try to make people give up.

NYT, detailed editorial, Trump unfit for office.

Opinion | Donald Trump Is Unfit to Leadwww.nytimes.com He failed the tests of leadership and betrayed America. Voters must stand up to him in November.

It’s going to take a while for Nikki Haley to get that taste out of her mouth.

I’m finding this post truth era a little stressful.

It’s different this time. Last time they elected him “because fuck you”. This time they might elect him because they want him. No excuses this time.

VPJD sounds like a condition a condom could prevent.

The 'army' being recruited for the next Trump presidencywww.abc.net.au Trump's march to re-take the White House continues with renewed determination. If he wins he'll have an "army" of 10,000 recruits at his disposal to help implement his controversial agenda.

The weird thing about this creepy Vance guy is none of the gross things he believes in affect me adversely, because I’m a middle aged bloke. I hope middle aged bloke Americans think of their neighbours and friends, not just themselves, when they vote. Vance could be president very soon.

Failed state.

Judge Cannon dismisses Trump documents casewww.npr.org She cited the manner in which special counsel Jack Smith was appointed to investigate the former president's handling of classified documents.

Trump. Unity. Fuck off.

Vote independent or Greens, the ALP contains as many religious dicks as the coalition. #AusPol

Zero people had 5 seconds to click on 5 stars? Did I mention it makes a massive difference to getting an independent podcast seen on podcast apps? That it’s the best PR we can get? That we kind of need a hand up? You don’t have to like the show, just hit and run with the 5 star button. Ta.

We really need your help. To get seen on the podcast apps we need ratings and downloads. Most of the visible podcasts on each app are published by large media organisations, including News Corp, independent shows rely on a helping hand from the public to compete. Click 5 stars, thank you!

Americans suggesting a deity intervened to save a rapist at the expense of another person who took his wife and daughters to a rally staged by a rapist could not shit me more. Seriously, that shit is so fucking dumb.

Lost in the ongoing Trumpapalooza is the excellent news that a malaria vaccination developed at Oxford Univ. over the last 30 years and costing only £3 per shot is being unrolled in malaria-prone countries. If it fulfills its promise, this will make an enormous difference to so many lives.

I’m guessing everyone has already done all the van Golf gags?

The Greens have negotiated an empty homes tax to apply across Victoria, increasing when a home is vacant for multiple years. It comes into effect in 2025, and encourages landlords to rent properties out, or sell them to people who will live in them, rather than just land-banking.
