So I go over and Rilen, who was drunk, starts cursing out my friend: "yer a fukken kunt" etc.
Didn't get to meet him.🤣

Indulge me, any style editors out there. I'm just trying to get the tense right. Which is more correct? Is it, “the ABC has been thoroughly f*cked,” “the ABC is being f*cked,” or, “the ABC will be increasingly f*cked?” #pastpresentfuture 🙄🤨🤔 #auscontent www.theguardian.com/media/2019/s...

“Jelly-like creatures appear in south-eastern Tasmania en masse” | ABC News.
Well, this is how it ends. Or how low budget movies about how things end start, anyway. (Cue attractive woman going for a late night moonlight swim with ominous music playing). #auscontent

Dutton's forays into policy have been marked by confusion and missteps. His migration “plan” is in tatters, and the CSIRO confirms his nuclear fantasy would be massively expensive and deliver little power. Dutton should admit he’s a policy bum. #auscontent www.crikey.com.au/2024/12/09/p...
