  1. For those who still think nuclear is the way to go... https://reneweconomy.com.au/global-report-confirms-and-details-nuclear-powers-stagnation-someone-needs-to-tell-the-coalition/amp/
  2. Only when they're activated by 5G.
  3. Isn't that what the "chemtrails" are doing?
  4. Next time someone says that, say "What, 47?" And watch the reaction.
  5. You're asking for logic from Apple? They have rusted on supporters. If they released a turd embossed with the Apple logo there'd be a line around the block the night before release.
  6. Having Angus would be like having Tony Abbott back.
  7. Until this (and pending the outcome of their internal bunfight on net zero) I didn't think she was doing too badly. She kicked that MAGA-loving twit Jacinta off the front bench. But yes this act of stupidity has me questioning her intelligence.
  8. Having NOT heeded the clear message from Australian voters, which was "We want someone who will take climate change seriously AND stand up to that orange idiot", the Coalition has decided they like being in minority so they'll do the opposite. In an act of pure stupidity and anti-Australianness, Sussssan has written to the goddamn Republican party in the US and knifed her country's PM. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09-22/albanese-un-palestine-address-ley-republican-letter/105803078
  9. Possibly a tumbril? Like the French revolution...

  11. There's so many things wrong with that saying I don't know where to start. Maybe the saying should be "only a fool thinks that coal generated electricity powering his a/c and the petrol powering his F-350, is the same as his neighbour's solar generated electricity powering both their a/c and EV"

  15. Good thing I don't believe in heaven. Must be terrible for christians, knowing it'll be full of Trump supporters.

  17. Well, for a start he probably didn't do it at all. The story is from a work of fiction. If he did, he didn't do it from 200m, and he couldn't have killed multiple people in a short time with no one knowing where the stones were coming from. Australia's last mass shooting - Port Arthur, 1996. That's almost 30 years ago. Wonder what changed? Wasn't the intent of crazy people.

    I before E, except after C. (The rule with more exceptions than not)
  19. The only thing that would make the US healthy is an overwhelming Democrat majority with the balls to take on the NRA and the vision to fix their health care system.
  20. No.
  21. I'd never heard of Kirk before he got shot, and as far as I'm concerned he's just one out of 5000 odd per year that gets killed by gun in the US. I mourn every innocent child killed in Sandy Hook much more than some idiot who apparently thought it was fair for people to be killed by guns in order for whack jobs to get to keep their AR-15's. The bad thing about this is how it's an absolute gift for Dicktator Donny. Based on this killing, it's obvious that everyone on the "loony left" (ie normal people) is a dangerous criminal and he is justified in making restrictive laws and "executive orders" to keep them from doing or saying anything that may offend the delicate feelings of "patriotic americans" (ie raving right wing nut jobs and anyone who licks his arse). I saw reporting somewhere that he is even insisting on America's allies setting up specific "left wing extremist" task forces. Despite all evidence that the vast majority of extremist violence comes from conservatives. The hypocrisy is astounding. For years frothing right-wingers have called for violence against anyone they don't agree with. Many people working for family planning clinics have been murdered. Trump himself has denigrated and abused anyone who doesn't agree with him. Yet anyone who dares to point out the truth about this Kirk character, or refuse to treat him like some kind of saint, is facing real world consequences over there. Losing their jobs, being cancelled, receiving death threats. All the stuff that conservatives have been complaining about the "woke" crowd, they are doing a hundred fold. The US needs to stop using "free" in any description of itself. There is no free speech, no freedom to think for yourself, no freedom to poke fun at the disgraceful actions of its executive branch. It's fast becoming a repressive, authoritarian theocracy. As an independent country we should be extricating ourselves from close ties with the US, including the disastrous AUKUS pact, until such time that they reverse everything Trump has done, put the rabid Republicans into minority and prove to the world that freedom has returned.
  22. It's disgusting. Every company is running scared of him. In WW2 the US stood up to fascists, who were attempting to kill all the Jews. Now the US is becoming fascist and Israel is committing genocide. Total reversal.
  23. Meanwhile, the evil empire scores another scalp. Trump and his sycophants hate late night comics like Colbert and Kimmel because they speak truth and don't kowtow to him. Now another spineless media company has crumpled and given in to him. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09-18/jimmy-kimmel-live-cancelled-indefinitely/105787192?utm_source=abc_news_web&utm_medium=content_shared&utm_campaign=abc_news_web
  24. Mate, I don't think you understand. Everyone is on the spectrum.
