2003 #MICF and Los Trios Ringbarkus return to the stage. Unfortunately, they didn't finish their run during to an accident while doing their chair juggling piece.

My first comedy festival, after moving to Melbourne. Upfront was only in its 4th year #MICF

If this was a musical, the twist would be that Jacinta was Gina's half sister www.abc.net.au/news/2025-05...

Tried to get the young one to watch Gallipoli for ANZAC day. Wasn't interested because they didn't want a sad ending. Maybe I should try Rogue One today ...

An aid ship heading to Gaza has sent out a distress signal after crew members say it was hit in a drone attack and has caught fire. There are 30 aid workers on board the Freedom Flotilla ship, which was attempting to break Israel’s 2-month aid blockade.

China trolls the American idiots

This was great messy fun during preview week. No idea if it has changed over the weeks of #MICF, but it would only be for better. Two nights left, see #ZoeCoombesMarr if you can. www.comedyfestival.com.au/browse-shows...

Great fun with #ElfLyons last night. Only two more nights of #MICF Discover you child with Horses www.comedyfestival.com.au/browse-shows...

A great night out at the #ArselessChaps with @tonymartin.bsky.social and Damien Cowell

THE BEST OF NANCY BY ERNIE BUSHMILLER January 22,1974

Back at Upfront. Bless you #MICF

Johnny Goes to Church supporting Dog Trumpet at Archie's Creek. All is fine with the world.

Tariffs will be lifted on penguins when they forsake monogamy and when the males abandon the woke practice of caring for the young. by Pete Hegseth

Mail call. I didn't know that there was a book on the making of Welcome to Woop, woop. Can't wait to get stuck into it

It seems to have mysteriously disappeared. Funny how when someone folks are upset, content disappears

Classic freedom of expression. That AI clip of Zelenskyy chinning Trump was taken down by Zuckerberg as false information. Thou that it was not

Very sad to hear of the passing of founding member of The Damned - Brian James He was never past of their line up when they visited Australia, but he started the thing off, and wrote most of the first album. blabbermouth.net/news/foundin...

Don't know about you, but I'd call this art search.app/whyex6e9DzrD...

This ridiculous analogy that the Libs keep pushing about the government spending being like household spending. We know that Libs cutbacks would be like (to continue their analogy) selling the family car and having a rental in the drive all the time. Just wasteful. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

My much loved 4th edition of The Twilight Zone companion. Amazing that the binding still holds after all these decades. Invaluable resource in the pre internet days, and still the best TZ reference I have found

Still sad about the passing of Tom Robbins. There was a time in the late 80s where he was very popular with folks I knew

Absolutely disgusting behaviour from our privately owned media, baiting to try and create a story. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Having recently re-read 1984, this was the basic message Orwell was telling us. Whoever controls the past, controls the future

has anyone else noticed how quickly the world has become a Bond film?

Sad to hear of Tom Robins passing. Read all through his stuff in the 90s www.theguardian.com/books/2025/f...

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been! with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

I'd love to see too weird. I'm guessing the studios first problem is that they have something that doesn't fit the standard marketing mold, and they are confused. www.darkhorizons.com/pta-dicaprio...

Another nice thing about holidays is getting home to find parcels waiting to be opened. This crowd funder was a no-brainer. It's still one of my favourite TV series.

Still sad about the passing of one of the great artists of our time. I never got to see him talk, I think he only did one public appearance in Australia, in Brisbane. There is some solice in owning one of only three trading cards he signed

An excellent read over the holidays. Of course, it just makes me want to watch the films again. I'd love to see an update, which includes the TV series

Lynch was a man who tried his hand at every aspect of the artistic life.

I can link this back to the good old days, in like two steps; Don Trump > Roy Cohn > Joseph McCarthy! And they say history doesn't repeat itself.

Went to the Australian Film and Sound archive in Canberra today. Not a big exhibition, one room really, but so much treasure. Drom Aunty Jack, here is Thin Arthur's hat, Aunty Jacks golden glove, dress and footy socks, and a prop meat guitar used by Kev Kavanah
