@GattonStreet Have you tried putting it in your mouth

@maximum_sincere It was the style at the time

@newscomauHQ If he can fend off a defamation suit for calling Clive Palmer a "Fatty McFuckHead" I think he can handle a little bad press from the Murdoch Media

A popular YouTuber has been branded “very offensive” and “racist” for appearing to mock NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian in a video. news.com.au/technology/onl…

@brad_polumbo In my country, politicians say things, people believe them, they get elected, then they don't do the things. Does it work differently in America?

@clairlemon Increased supply does not equal increased demand. This will increase student turnover, dilute the workforce & lower salaries. Those HELP loans will never be paid back if students dont pursue their passion. How about investing in creating jobs instead of pandering to conservatives

In Australia, government works 💪twitter.com/ArthurCDent/st…

@ConceptualJames The worst part is she votes to drive down the wedge of inequality and now shes revelling in the unrest its caused

The worst part here is the almost manic glee in her eyes at setting up a racism witchhunt.

@Dachshunds4eva @JohnCleese I'm confused, you claim that most non-voters were moderates and then provide an article that suggests most moderates did actually vote, and thus swung the election. Shouldn't you be discouraging them from voting in future as it may have an unpredictable outcome on elections.

@chrisofaus @JohnCleese It was pretty well established at the time (even before the election), with "moderate" specifically referring to the fact they did not feel the far/mid left or right aligned with their beliefs. One article; others easily found if you would like to look: nytimes.com/2016/11/16/opi…

Hard to tell if I recorded this 30 years or 10 minutes ago...

@Dachshunds4eva @JohnCleese how could you know most non-voters were moderates? perhaps they were the large percentage of Americans who did not feel represented by either party.

@JohnCleese 100 million people in the U.S.A. did not vote in 2016. Many have expressed outraged that people did not vote and blame them for all the ills of the past 3 1/2 years. Most non-voters were moderates and, as @JohnCleese so brilliantly and clearly points out, stuck in the middle.

@JohnCleese @ConceptualJames Moderates, The one true enemy!

@MoistCr1TiKaL Your too controversial for twitter

Twitter is dropping fat checkmarks all over the place today. Feels pretty fucking nice

@rantingkat Freaky, but helps with panoramic scanning for predators

Double Chip Experiment

Wow, a decent article for once

@SeattleIndpdnt @clairlemon The aim of globalization is a global free market not a one world government. The export of national values is interventionism and is hardly conducive to international relations and trade.

Pretty astonishing interview with Australia's shadow trade minister Joel Fitzgibbon on ABC right now. According to him, Australia should not have called for an inquiry into the origins of COVID-19 because China is our biggest trade partner...

@clairlemon The point of globalisation is efficient comparative advantage trading which allows nations to thrive off the back of specialising their exports. We'l see how patriotic you are when your paying more for everything while wages stagnate.

I've said before but I'll say it again: the point of globalisation was not simply to make people rich, it was supposed to export liberal values to the world. If trade with China requires us to sacrifice our principles for economics, then something has gone badly wrong.

@simonoxfphys This game will consume you

Holy shit I've caught the Rocket League bug #PyongyangFC

@thompn4 @_jack_fox_ How are green voters responsible for electing the GOP? Because they didnt vote democrat? You should thank them for voting at all and provide an argument for why they should vote democrat next time if they care about the environment, what do the dems do for the environment?

@chrisofaus @_jack_fox_ When did I say that you "can't" vote for any party? If you were concerned about the environment and voted for the Green party over Dems in 2000 or 2016, then congrats on your protest ballot, but just know you helped do an immense amount of environmental damage.

It’s darkly funny that the Green Party is responsible for untold environmental damage by being responsible for electing at least one and arguably two Republican presidents

@benshapiro What do you mean? She can give us the down low on how Sweden's holding up

Is there anyone at CNN with any level of self-awareness? Featuring Greta Thunberg on a covid-19 expert panel is just beyond words. I actually cannot believe they are this insane/stupid.

@FiPanther Old marketing habit

Why does every announcement the government makes come with ScoMo holding up an oversized piece of paper like he’s showing off his y9 science project?
