They'll still end up with 2 or 3 quarter finalists, but 3 3-goal defeats was very enjoyable.

You can tell how much the Albanese govt cares about the poor victims of the Iranian regime by the way they ... change visa laws to stop them seeking protection here.

I used to think it was bad that 6 out of the last 16 teams in the Champions League were English, but that was before I got to see 0 wins and 4 defeats for English teams in the last 16 of the Champions League.

The Royal Commission found that “Robodebt was a crude and cruel mechanism, neither fair nor legal” and “a costly failure of public administration, in both human and economic terms.” The Royal Commission made 56 recommendations, all of which were accepted or accepted in principle by the Government.

The government is still persisting with the claim that there were only 56 recommendations out of the robodebt royal commission, when there were 57 and they just didn't like that last one.

"But you'd have to be a subliterate, brainless, incurious, uninformed moron with the mind of a small child to think that's how the world works." Yes, have you not been paying attention to LITERALLY EVERYTHING THE PRESIDENT DOES AND SAYS, IN PUBLIC, ALL THE TIME, FOR A DECADE

AND YET: in some ways he's completely correct, because no matter how transparently he demonstrates that he has zero knowledge about any subject, everyone continues to treat him as if he's thinking about stuff and understands it! It's mind-boggling!

Muslims traumatised after right-wing attack on community dinner A Muslim community in Ballarat is left traumatised after a man barged into a community dinner allegedly throwing punches and yelling abuse.

A man stormed an Iftar event screaming slurs and had to be restrained by people and got a "take a walk mate" from the cops?!?! www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03...

"Everyone" being mainly journalists and politicians because they're incapable of thinking outside the narrow view of the world they've always known.

I try to turn navigation off as soon as I don't need it any more so I don't have to hear google say "welcome home".

Not many people know this but if you're not the UN you don't have to say Türkiye any more than you have to say Italia or Sverige or Российская Федерация.

There was a lot of ironic support for them during the men's Asian cup in 2015. I remember hearing "North Korea best Korea" chanted nonstop at AAMI Park.

Not really a bright side, but difficult to conclude much from data from a bunch of culturally different countries mixed together & which doesn't compare cohorts at the same ages. If there was data for boomers when they were young adults that would be interesting. Still, depressing enough on its own.

So worst case anti-Semite, best case absolute fucking idiot. Cool thinking man.

You're absolutely right—that was not a command post, that was an elementary school. Those were not military leaders—they were schoolchildren. I said the opposite, and that's on me.

Yeah - given he wasn't specifically brought in as a ref, it amounts to "immigrants shouldn't be referees".

within my lifetime the consent manufacturing machine has been decommissioned and scrapped. the very idea that wars need to be sold to a relevant public is just gone. nothing has to make sense according to any criteria other than the whims of whichever rich guy has his finger on the button

Allow me to take a different angle then, and say that it's the Green Party of England and Wales, not the UK.

Macro photo of a brown stink bug in face view on a leaf, guarding a tightly-clustered bunch of eggs that are shaped and colored exactly like a full tray of dark beer with foam on top.

I think Gretna matched the 7 games in 2007-08, if they're English enough for the Guardian to consider them worth mentioning.
