    What would a Dutton Liberal leadership mean for the Liberals and the country?

    The Howard years were pretty good economic times, granted. But it was the era of property prices decoupling from wages, funding private schools and health at the expense of public, and blowing our mineral wealth that should have been banked.

    Play Nice Scott Morrison in the Multiverse of Ministries.

    As much as I hate both Trump and Morrison, I'd actually say that a former PM having a chat with the incoming US president isn't bad for Australia's interests overall. Hopefully Morrison pissed in his ear about giving Australia good deals.

    What would a Dutton Liberal leadership mean for the Liberals and the country?

    The way I see it, if you're not saving at least 10% of your take-home pay, you're getting yourself into trouble. Of course that gets easier the higher your income is.

    What would a Dutton Liberal leadership mean for the Liberals and the country?

    In 2021, 67% of Australian households were home owners, down from 70% in 2006. https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports/australias-welfare/home-ownership-and-housing-tenure That may not seem like a large drop, but home ownership rates among young adults (of the 'starting to have kids' age) are...

    What would a Dutton Liberal leadership mean for the Liberals and the country?

    18 May 2019 was one of the worst days in recent decades in Australia. It was the election that killed bold policy platforms for what I think will be a long time. And I should say that house prices would be at least 10% lower today - if not a lot more - had Labor won.

    Anthony Albanese - How long? -3-

    Lack of critical thinking is the biggest ****ing killer in the internet age. We have so many reputable sources available to us, yet many get their information from numpties on Tiktok and swallow it whole.

    What would a Dutton Liberal leadership mean for the Liberals and the country?

    One of the most breathtakingly out-of-touch things I've read in recent times. People are living in their cars and all the Liberals can talk about is poor downtrodden 'mums and dads' who have missed out on an investment property? How about the mums and dads that can't house their kids? Christ.

    Play Nice 47th President of the United States: Donald Trump - Part 20: If you want Capitalism, you got it

    I feel sorry for Jimmy Carter. He has just died aged 100, living just long enough to vote for Harris but see her lose and Trump reelected.

    Play Nice 46th President of the United States: Joe Biden 2: Incidit in scyllam cupiens vitare charybdim

    In my view, history won't care about that. She lost, and that's all that will be remembered. Just as no one really remembers the losing grand final teams, only premiers.

    In a fair media landscape, this snake wouldn't be anywhere near Albanese.

    Anthony Albanese - How long? -3-

    It may not look pretty, but in the long term footpath charging may be the only solution. Drive or walk down any suburban street in Australia and numerous second and third cars in the family don't get a spot in the garage. In densely-populated Europe, it's even worse. That said, the non-garaged...

    Anthony Albanese - How long? -3-

    The car landscape has really changed in the last 20 years. Manuals have gone the way of the dodo, and even sedans are dying out. The 'default' family car these days is an SUV - the Commodore or Falcon of 2024. I've driven an MG SUV as a hire car and it was clearly a piece of crap. I've heard...

    Can people stop spending money on crap they don't need? Do us all a favour and help inflation come down.

    Anthony Albanese - How long? -3-

    This is what having a Coalition-biased media landscape means. Instagram is of course new media, not a newspaper. Realestate.com.au is a subsidiary of Murdoch. It's all about these hints and framing of the narrative. Interest rate hell? **** me mate. Interest rates couldn't stay at record lows...

    The COALition sold its soul to the Devil to keep fossil fuels in use for longer. Where do you end up if you do that? In Hell. On fire.

    You did the right thing by being there for the dogs. It's painful but I'm sure seeing you makes the process slightly more palatable for them.

    Things that sh*t me the seventeenth

    Unfortunately, while voluntary assisted dying is only being legalised now, you even get similar situations with people. When you're old and frail or likely to end up in a vegetative state, it's best to be kept comfortable rather than needlessly prolonging life.

    Things that sh*t me the seventeenth

    When Exactly - as the human with access to a vet, you need to take on the responsibility of making the hard choice in your pet's best interest. I daresay most people have had sad incidents with their pets. It's a different kind of sadness to the death of a person.

    Things that sh*t me the seventeenth

    In the Adelaide CBD, a few days ago some absolute joker put up posters asking for GoFundMe donations for their small fluffy dog. The story goes that it was attacked by another dog and needs hip surgery, and that will cost about $20,000 to $40,000. 1. Get a grip. 2. Hurry up and put the poor dog...

    When people don't take the fuel efficiency stickers off the windshields of a new car. We get it - you can afford a new car. Take the sticker off and be done with it.

    Anthony Albanese - How long? -3-

    If Labor runs an effective Morrison-style scare campaign against Dutton, Albanese will remain PM and they may even squeak into majority. Albo might then anoint a successor to save the internal fight and present a fresh face for 2028. If said scare campaign is poor, Dutton might get close, but he...

    Prediction How many games will the AFC win in 2025?

    I can see this going one of two ways: 1. A really good breakout season for several young players, plus our recruits making an impact, plus Davis makes Nicks half-decent, or the sheer talent makes Nicks look good. 14 wins, top six finish, finals here we come. 2. Nicks' pathetic coaching costs...
