@10NewsAU 'brazenly accepted' who writes this dreck? Oh, 'Made with AI'.

Pauline Hanson has brazenly accepted a $1.5m private plane ‘gift’ donated by Australia's richest person, Gina Rinehart. For the full story: 10.com.au/news/national/…

@ChrisHeHim1 Couldn't fit a barrel in there (so much pork, so little space).

One Nation politician.

@BenFordhamLive Point of order pertaining to syntax. Is Warren Mundine an Indigenous leader? He is Indigenous, yes, but does he lead or is he considered a leader in community? Is he a leader in anything?

An Indigenous leader has slammed ‘Welcome to Country’ ceremonies. Warren Mundine says the practice has become overused. He says it’s becoming a “pain in the arse.” Listen to his comments HERE. 2gb.com/pain-in-the-ar…

@bykemp @Thomas_Kelsall Completely off topic - I've still got a 'Bigger than Russ Hinze' T-Shirt from AUU...

In another life I worked for Tom Burns, the qld deputy premier. He started life “on the stump” rallying workers for the union from the back of an EH Holden in the 1960s. He told me one day: “If anything flies into your mouth you chew and keep talking Digger.” But that must have taken years of practice talking during fly storms in country Qld. I used to be very proud that he called me “Digger”, until I found out he could never remember names and made up generic ones.

Legend. This @Thomas_Kelsall is the most #Aussie piece to camera ever. The hawk Tuah at the end was the icing on the cake. #saparli

@xskinn You wouldn't read about it. No, no. That is actually the whole point. Also the joke, and definitely the punchline. Well done Angus.

WELL DONE ANGUS gives a press conference about the Royal Commission interim report about the events at Bondi. He states he’s not happy with it,but when pressed by a reporter about what he didn’t like he said he hadn’t read it yet. HA!😳😂😂Ian

@bykemp @newmrpford I've seen so much about him in the past week or so, all it it filtered through his hissy fits, and still I don't know who he is, nor care. Life's strange like that.

The move to the beach doesn’t seem to have relaxed the lobbyist @newmrpford. Shuts down comments. He got his y-fronts in a knot when I suggested he should report on issues he is so invested in: “Miles you seem so triggered & full of rage about this woman. I haven't criticised anyone. Simply made an observation. Calm down old chap.”

@JebraFaushay Holy shit! I suppose you can take the kid outta Long Island but you can't...

At first I was like, why is Billy Joel allowing a Make a Wish kid up on stage with him? Then I realized it was his daughter. So I’m not going to say anything at all. Sometimes that’s best. (BillyJoel)

@Peter_Fitz You are entirely correct about the 'personalising' which happens all the time in Australian media. To paraphrase from many: 'He was a great bloke... kids footy coach... salt of the earth... until he wasn't' is the way murderers are framed.

To unload a personal bug-bear on this, I don't like headlines that designate him just "Dezi", as if he is a mate, a simple Aussie bloke. Too familiar and friendly, somehow. It jars. Thoughts?

@StuddertNatalie @luiscalleo two out of two. agree

@luiscalleo Red hot chilli peppers and Pearl Jam.

What’s a band everyone seems to love, but you just never got into?

@ellensandell Fantastic and lovely and it's got a proper basket on it and I don't think you need to paint 'THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS' on it.

BREAKING NEWS – I’ve got a bike. Yes, I've had it for a while. Yes I’m super happy. No a billionaire didn't pay for it. Yes it’s amazing. Yes it annoys the Herald Sun. Yes it’s an anti-fascist machine. Yes it’s sexy. No I don't have a pilot, but I can give you a dink if you need.

@ronsterd89 Oooh, I know. Ralph Babet

@GreenTyler27 Tyler Green, do you have deep, lived experience as a failed political candidate?

We keep putting people in charge of highly technical portfolios without deep, lived experience in those systems. We have an energy minister who doesn’t understand energy and a treasurer who doesn’t understand finance… and now this.

@BoylanRoger Not sure about that, but James Coburn would not have got the accent in a thousand years (or the lifespan of the 3rd Reich, whichever came first).

Aussie Flying Officer Sedgwick (James Coburn) awaiting an appointment with the Resistance in "The Great Escape." A critic wrote that "if he didn’t crack the accent, Coburn nails the attitude of an Australian."

@WarMonitor3 Nice Lancaster. My father also flew in Lancasters, 55 ops with PFF 1944-45, shot down twice and won the DFC in a VC crew. Yes, they were heroes, all of them.

What was your relatives role in WW2? I will go first my great grandad fought as an RAF pilot flying anti submarine machines hunting German U-Boats near Malta.

@blakandblack Without hate they are nothing. With hate they are alone. It's ignorant and pathetic.

I’m not sure how “fuck off you retarded race communist” could be considered a reasonable response, or even a comment that adds value to a discussion. And the RWNJ wonder why normal people, ignore, block, move on…

@sszinglehead I put some words together to describe my feelings and this is what I came up with. 'Milktoast sphincter'...

Andrew Probyn introduces James Paterson to the #NPC audience as "eloquent" and a "fixer". Rightio.

@buttsa_twinkle @strangerous10 Aha!! It's funny what happens when the mind tries to block things out for you... I was quite literally blank for a few moments there... 🥺

@rustyalex2 @strangerous10 TBH I’d rather Georgia on my mind

Sarah Ferguson stumps Susan McDonald revealing a pathetic $9M in tax for gas giants despite a huge $40B jump in receipts from the Ukraine war💥 McDonald says it’s complex but fair.🙄 In what world is $9M on $40B fair? One where gas corps write the rules, & the donation checks.💰

@buttsa_twinkle @strangerous10 Errm, I've got Georgia On My Mind...

@rustyalex2 @strangerous10 Starts with a G and ends with an A
