I need reasons?😬

So cute how Americans still go on about the First Amendment, like their Constitution has any legal weight any more.

You had your (first) constitutional crisis a year ago, it was resolved, not by reining in government overreach, but by ignoring that it even happened.

Every one since has played out the same: constitutional crisis, left have a cry, everyone ignores it.

Deal with it, you have no functional constitution now

Told you it was all performative. The same racists, the same cowed fools, are heading up the Adelaide Festival.

Time for a hard boycott, until they all resign, and the SA premier is gone:

In a change of pace, the latest War Thunder leaks allege that Gaijin's anti-cheat system was exfiltrating files from user's computers and recording unrelated PII.

On top of that, the leakers allege that Gaijin are using classified documents on the Eurofighter Typhoon to balance the vehicle in-game

Well, I spent the afternoon in the dentists' chair (as I will do tomorrow and the next).

Just some prep for dentures. They'll save most of my teeth, but the ones that needed to go, went today.

Had an Indonesian exchange student sitting in on it today, which is always good

*sigh* If you're writing policy documents that directly reference unreleased budget papers, maybe don't do it on a tram

Kind of rich that the SA and NSW premiers furrow their brows over booing Indigenous people at ANZAC Day ceremonies while they spend their life attacking the indigenous people of Palestine

I still remember someone from Twitter giving me a big bag of Australian truffles.

We gorged on them all Christmas, and on Christmas day I did the best I figured with them: toasted baguette with seared wagyu, poached egg, and truffle grated on top:

Australia is the world’s fourth-largest black truffle producer. Now scientists may have unearthed why

Understanding truffles is a ‘tricky proposition’ because most of the magic occurs underground

Kinda crazy that so many humanitarians have pivoted from "the rich are sapping the world of resources" to "if we don't allow petrostates to make money we're all doomed".

The only reason the global south are so fucked right now is they've been colonised and raped to oblivion by the same people fucking the Strait of Hormuz
