The Coalition has a habit of inheriting a good economy and managing it poorly; and handing the ALP a shit show to fix in return.

Not that I’m an avid cricket watcher, but this Boxing Day Test is the first time in a VERY long time that I’ve watched someone actually win a match. So it’s been a nice few days relaxing and enjoying the game. #AusVsInd #BoxingDay #TestCricket

All the little pearl-clutchers getting anxious about the shoulder bump and trash talk between Sam Konstas and Virat Kohli. Ha! They obviously never saw the 1981 WACA game when Dennis Lillee and Javed Miandad had their altercation on the pitch! #AusVsInd

It’s been about 40 years, or so, since I watched the start of the Boxing Day Test Match. I don’t ever recall so much pomp and ceremony - anthems etc. It was a coin flip, Tony stuck his key in the pitch and babbled about weather and player comfort then the game commenced. #AusvInd

I’m noticing the “Twitter/X” habit of people following in order to get a follow back trend … I just unfollowed several teachers, educators, Queenslanders, Australians who did this.

One thing I look for in a social network is not to have the CEO shove his reactionary political views in my face every time I open the app. So I’m happy here.

West Wing is an entertaining drama. But aside from some jargon thrown in there’s little connection to reality. I saw a social media post-no idea which platform, sorry- that suggested one reason for Harris’ loss is voters wanted Sorkinism instead of a Democrat. Was the USA deceived by a simulacrum?

Hello to all my new followers. I'm still working out how I'll use this forum, since there seems to be a lot less bad history to be debyunked here (so far). For those who aren't aware, I use my social media to debunk myths about ancient and medieval history, with a particular focus on bad history ...
