Ah this old chestnut again. Males being paid more in sport than women. Well I hate to say it (but I will) women's sports do not generate the same level interest or income male sports do. If they did they would get paid the same. Simple really. Hardly anyone cares what the Matilda's do. Most people, myself included couldn't name the squad!

@dortsmaria @MattBobBrad1 @theoztrucker I'd say you're both right to a degree. As a general rule women's sports generates less interest and therefore less money, but when there's an exception to the rule, as in your example and the Matilda's last week, that extra revenue is undoubtedly not adequately shared.

@GeminiRB85 Yes, definitely not all the men spending the whole Asian Cup putting shit on the Tillies, saying ‘build them a statue sarcastically’ and being gross and sexist. It’s definitely just me with a joking tweet.

I'm not against Snape being black in the new Harry Potter series. I'm not against it on principle. There are obviously some pretty awful things and memes being said/shared that are clearly just racist. But it isn't necessarily racist to be a bit annoyed the character has been changed from the book's description, because his appearance carries meaning. 1. Snape is specifically and deliberately described as having "sallow skin" and being "pale." It mirrors the same pale complexion Voldemort has, which is partly why Snape always feels suspicious. They're designed as visual inversions of each other: Snape has a big hooked nose, Voldemort has a flat snakelike one. The whole point of Snape is that he LOOKS like the villain. Everything about his physical description screams untrustworthy. That's Rowling's deliberate misdirection, teaching readers not to judge by appearances. Change the appearance, you risk losing the power of that twist. 2. There's also an irony nobody seems to be talking about. By making Snape the suspicious, untrustworthy, seemingly villainous character AND the only prominent black actor in the cast, you've actually created the exact optics you were presumably trying to avoid. The one black guy is the one everyone's supposed to distrust? How is that progressive? 3. People are making a false equivalence with Hermione being black in the Cursed Child. That's completely fine because the books never say she's white in the text, and it doesn't affect her story either way. Snape's appearance is different. It's written into the plot. 4. The writers now have a real issue down the line. How are they going to portray Snape being bullied when younger? How are they going to portray James Potter suspending Snape upside down with Levicorpus? Surely they aren't going to force racist undertones onto Lupin, Potter, Black and Pettigrew? PLEASE do not turn this into some politically driven TV series where the Marauders' cruelty becomes a racial storyline. That would ruin both Snape AND James.

@puntingbattler @AFL I feel like it was brought in to highlight the game in NSW and QLD while the NRL was in Vegas.... But it's always a week afterward! Like, why?

@AFL My biggest take away is opening round is stupid. Wild idea - every team plays and call it something like round1

''This conduct does not reflect the Australia we know." The President of ANIC addresses the recent incident involving NSW Police and peaceful worshippers. Such actions during a state of prayer are a breach of the sanctity of worship. We stand together for peace, justice, and the protection of our religious freedoms.

@Aliya562219 Super ADD here, so I didn't see the multiplication thing at all. But I saw a pattern in how much each answer lowered. 88 to 70 lowered by 18 70 to 54 lowered by 16 54 to 40 lowered by 14 So 4 must = 28 (lower by 12) And 3 must = 18 (lower by 10) So 3 = 18

@wheresdafunnies @7NewsMelbourne @paul_dowsley Exactly this! I wasn't impressed by the guards reaction at all.... However, after they were kicked out, and old mate threatened with the bollard.... Then he proceeds to KO his mate with a chair aimed at seccies??? Fucking hilarious!

@TruthFairy131 I'd like to know exactly how much of another individuals money he thinks he's entitled to. And I'd like to see him explain it to that individual, face to face, in a way that makes any sense at all.
