@MightySwom Played mostly pretty ordinary, only went down by 4 goals away from home, against a very good team. Definitely lessons learnt today.

Can’t blame the umps. Can’t blame anything really. Geelong are just a better team and as soon as Sydney are faced with a full strength side they fall away. I had little faith about this game but it’s still flattening watching this. #AFLCatsSwans

My patience with Wicks has become very thin, I can never see what value he brings that everyone else sees… And we dropped Cunningham 😅

This is the greatest video I’ve ever seen. No notes. The lifeless clanker carcass just laying there. No crowd reaction, anything. Just Billie Jean. Until its lifeless shell is shamefully dragged off. Purely amazing.

We know Pauline defends hiring rapists and fraudsters, but here’s her favourite supporter she just defended. Allan Beale. The guy James Paterson got into a tiff with. Supports Neo-Nazis, defends Cop killers. Just your average One Nation Supporter 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

@tey_kidd @zanerednwhite If just not taking/keeping possession of the ball when in a contest was a free then there would be 400 free kicks a game.

it’s beyond ridiculous that this is not paid HTB, but a player standing up in a tackle and legally disposing after what the ump deems to be one nanosecond too long IS paid HTB the holding the ball rule is completely broken

"For instance, he has no class, no charm, no coolness, no credibility, no compassion, no wit, no warmth, no wisdom, no subtlety, no sensitivity, no self-awareness, no humility, no honour and no grace"
James Tate@JamesTate121

*BRITISH WRITER PENS THE BEST DESCRIPTION OF TRUMP* Someone asked "Why do some British people not like Donald Trump?" Nate White, an articulate and witty writer from England wrote the following response: A few things spring to mind. Trump lacks certain qualities which the British traditionally esteem. For instance, he has no class, no charm, no coolness, no credibility, no compassion, no wit, no warmth, no wisdom, no subtlety, no sensitivity, no self-awareness, no humility, no honour and no grace – all qualities, funnily enough, with which his predecessor Mr. Obama was generously blessed. So for us, the stark contrast does rather throw Trump's limitations into embarrassingly sharp relief. Plus, we like a laugh. And while Trump may be laughable, he has never once said anything wry, witty or even faintly amusing – not once, ever. I don't say that rhetorically, I mean it quite literally: not once, not ever. And that fact is particularly disturbing to the British sensibility – for us, to lack humour is almost inhuman. But with Trump, it's a fact. He doesn't even seem to understand what a joke is – his idea of a joke is a crass comment, an illiterate insult, a casual act of cruelty. Trump is a troll. And like all trolls, he is never funny and he never laughs; he only crows or jeers. And scarily, he doesn't just talk in crude, witless insults – he actually thinks in them. His mind is a simple bot-like algorithm of petty prejudices and knee-jerk nastiness. There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. It's all surface. Some Americans might see this as refreshingly upfront. Well, we don't. We see it as having no inner world, no soul. And in Britain we traditionally side with David, not Goliath. All our heroes are plucky underdogs: Robin Hood, Dick Whittington, Oliver Twist. Trump is neither plucky, nor an underdog. He is the exact opposite of that. He's not even a spoiled rich-boy, or a greedy fat-cat. He's more a fat white slug. A Jabba the Hutt of privilege. And worse, he is that most unforgivable of all things to the British: a bully. That is, except when he is among bullies; then he suddenly transforms into a snivelling sidekick instead. There are unspoken rules to this stuff – the Queensberry rules of basic decency – and he breaks them all. He punches downwards – which a gentleman should, would, could never do – and every blow he aims is below the belt. He particularly likes to kick the vulnerable or voiceless or female – and he kicks them when they are down. So the fact that a significant minority – perhaps a third – of Americans look at what he does, listen to what he says, and then think 'Yeah, he seems like my kind of guy' is a matter of some confusion and no little distress to British people, given that: • Americans are supposed to be nicer than us, and most are. • You don't need a particularly keen eye for detail to spot a few flaws in the man. This last point is what especially confuses and dismays British people, and many other people too; his faults seem pretty bloody hard to miss. After all, it's impossible to read a single tweet, or hear him speak a sentence or two, without staring deep into the abyss. He turns being artless into an art form; he is a Picasso of pettiness; a Shakespeare of shit. His faults are fractal: even his flaws have flaws, and so on ad infinitum. God knows there have always been stupid people in the world, and plenty of nasty people too. But rarely has stupidity been so nasty, or nastiness so stupid. He makes Nixon look trustworthy and George W look smart. In fact, if Frankenstein decided to make a monster assembled entirely from human flaws – he would make a Trump.

"He fought for us." A civil court found he machine-gunned an unarmed man with a prosthetic leg. The party that printed this sign is funded by Gina Rinehart, and led by Pauline Hanson who knowingly hired a convicted rapist. There is no bottom.

So, I listened to The Hissing Of Summer Lawns. Or I should say, I tried to. I made it all the way through maybe 4 tracks. I can hear what some ears might love in it. But it left me mostly cold. The singing was less annoying than I was expecting. The harmonies more. The OTT bass playing on track 1 would have had 23 yr old me stop listening completely. I wondered who produced it? Who OK'd that? She did.
