Aristos stealing from the Rebecca Judd playbook - commission an article to ask questions about you that nobody in the world would ever be interested in enough to ask.

Welcome to the Brave New World.

Who? I was living overseas in 2001 and this is literally the first time I've ever heard of this bloke.

And the article's factually incorrect. I'm pretty sure that a shirtless Laurie, man cans proudly on display and ubiquitous stubbie in hand, BBQing snags on Sylvania Waters was Australia's first taste of reality TV cooking.

Musk’s had a lot to say recently. I wonder if that was a build up to this?

Also hope he had a toke again

A lot going on in that brain

I’m probably opening myself up to a degree of ridicule here... However, I think Waleed Aly has written an excellent thoughtful column in The Age concerning the move to loosening restrictions. I think this sort of writing is Aly’s “bread and butter” - as opposed to all the other lightweight stuff he gets involved in.

Some good news. Those hicks who murdered that poor kid have been charged.

It’s crazy what it took to get them charged though.

Sorry if anybody works for Aus-post, but your website is shite.

How much does the CEO make a year ?

Significantly less than the previous nuffie in the role but still too much based on the quality of 'service' provided by the organisation.

Australia Post’s new chief executive has been revealed.

AUSTRALIA Post has appointed Christine Holgate as its new chief executive, the first woman to hold the role in the national carrier’s 208-year history.

www.news.com.au

This is my favourite bit:

Ms Holgate will be paid a more modest base salary of $1.4 million, with a potential $1.4 million bonus that would double her earnings to $2.8 million

The powers that be at Newscorp obviously feel that it's necessary to point out to their readers that double 1.4 equals 2.8.

It’s either this or more Kane Cornes content.

I have no idea who that's bloke even is. And my interest in Cornes has lead me to finish a biography on Bryan Robson and whatever Billy Connolys book is called. Is Jezzas mark more memorable for the commentary?

Australia Post was and should be about delivering mail. For a multitude of "reasons" they are more interested in numbers than letters.

In fairness, I think Snake has being shouting that from the rooftops for the past 3 years. However, most people just hear that he’s a “Trump supporter”.

In fairness to the rest of us, he's preaching to the converted but thinks he's a ground breaking genius.

Anyone seen the video from America of the 2 men chasing down a man jogging in the street and shooting him because they thought he was a burglar? One of them shot him point blank with a shotgun. No charges were laid. It’s getting traction on social media now so I suspect that will change soon. The jogger was unarmed.

It’s crazy over there

Were they cops?

Father was ex cop.

What about that idiot horse poster!

Not surprised at all.

I hope they get ****ed up in prison.

Has anyone seen HyperNormalisation, an Adam Curtis doco. I'm thinking I might watch it tonight.

 

[ferball]

Hey that worked out well.

Also here's one of the many reasons I think BMGF is ****ed and don't trust Bil Gates. I'm gonna start banging on about all his foundation's evil crap if the footy doesn't start soon.

Biosensors to monitor U.S. students' attentiveness

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which has poured more than $4 billion into efforts to transform public education in the U.S., is pushing to develop an "engagement pedometer." Biometric devices wrapped around the wrists of students would identify which classroom moments...

There wasn't any surprises in that, I guess you can't expect a lot from the BBC though. I kind of nodded off in a few places so I might have to watch it again.

Some good news. Those hicks who murdered that poor kid have been charged.

What particular significance was this murder compared to the countless other thousands who were murdered all over the planet that same day?
