Break a leg. I'll have to watch the footage
(I'm gonna assume you took my advice when living here and became a Roos fan 😃)

Just watched Carole on Jon Stewart talking CA etc and thought I'd see what you've been up to. Hope you enjoyed your time in Mel, Emma. I'll follow your peregrinations here. Best of 🇬🇧 2 u 👍

That's our future Premier according to Peta Cretin, GK. Bit of respect, please sir

Fair enough. We're blessed with a lot of great venues down here so it wouldn't be missed

Staffo has probably been to ours. It's cold, draughty, has poor visibility, and abysmal acoustics. Bring in Whelan the Wrecker I say

I saw that show at our FH in Melbourne. It's still there, looking like an unloved museum piece. Not sure if that's a better outcome than yours

Just drop in occasionally to catch up with my Twitter mates in exile. Had a beer with John Harms on Friday. He says g'day

Whenever there's an issue with the Libs, the 1st go to is invariably Top Hat. Then Hewson, then someone like Banks. None of them have any credibility so the problems remain unaddressed and festering

Gough's reforms were monumental and the ALP continues to reap what he sowed. The Libs otoh are continuing to reap what Howard sowed. That barren, fallow field ain't gonna sprout green shoots any time soon

You get to choose any race you like as long as it's white (the Libs dutifully honouring the Model T supremacist)

Talent is far more important than unity. Ppl know if Albo falls under a bus tomorrow there are several to choose from. Spud's departure has lifted the band-aid on the sore that has slowly festered since Howard

Maybe he thinks a lapsed liquor licence is the same as dry July 🤔

God bless you, GK. I've seen a lot of ppl interpret it as a chance to play The Beatles 😃

They're our Pearl Jam. Too much filler, but Straight Lines fills me with joy every time I hear it in a way not unlike Better Man

They're shitting themselves that some of the Teals will become the new Haines or Sharkie or Katter or even Steggall. They have to go for the jugular now coz 2 terms can quickly become 5

I get it. I was simply making the point that the cleavages have a long history. The absence of political philosophy just makes today's spats even more anodyne. Meanwhile, the Right marches on exploiting the internecine follies of their enemies

The Left has been atomised since the October Revolution. That's a long time, my friend. Let em tear each other apart. I urge sane ppl to maintain focus on the real threat of fascism.

Pretty healthy primary. My feeling is among the states the strongest incumbent is WA then SA then a drop to the newer govs in NSW and QLD then a drop to the 'bad smells' in TAS and ViC. Yes?

He made 3 at the start of his 1st term
- Repeal Obamacare
- Build the wall
- Ban Muslims
Did you hear Harris talk about his O from 3? Once?
Usual yardsticks don't apply. We have to figure out a new vernacular.

Are they gonna scalp Dolly? Think we should stop while we're behind
comment in response to
post
As a deep Red state that ship has sailed. No stopping the deluge of teenage pregnancies and fentanyl ODs. Dolly kept her thumb in the dyke as long as possible (lot of 💧 metaphors I just noticed 😃)

I can put up with a lot, but when they go after Dolly, the gloves are off. Nobody messes with my hero without consequences *looks up how to boycott Indiana*

She rightly got a lot of plaudits at the time. Unfortunately, your avg Tele reader saw Ms Southern's escapades thru a very different lens, as evidenced by the SM response

The mainstreaming of that infamous Lauren Southern cosplay in Lakemba years ago laid the template. Open slather now

So the ACT Libs' attempt to get out of the shit is just a Jacob's Ladder

Bookmark 2028. First time we get the 20-year dump knowing the human skidmark won't be mentioned

Can't remember the last Lowy report that was radically incisive and boldly challenged orthodoxy. They're now nothing more than garden variety shills

Wonderful day on Sunday at Montsalvat. Hope the Monday night performance of your piece went as well

Ppl don't see Hamas as the successor to PLO (Fatah certainly isn't, despite the pretences). If they did, then perhaps we'd be having the same convos as IRA bombings v Bloody Sunday or ETA v Madrid

RRS is a great sculptor. Charles Nodrum has a show of his work every 10 years or so and it always gets a great response

Hey JQ, saw this piece and it reminded me why I like reading your stuff so much. I'll have to check in here more often. Hope you are well. Merry Christmas
