Well, there's a photo I never expected to see in my life. Noam Chomsky palling around with Steve Bannon.

Not only that, he is initially beloved for his brashness and is also such an arsehole that he cheats at cards.

This worker was fired for hurling racist abuse at a customer. That’s the “view”.

I didn’t think The Atlantic could surprise me any more with its idiotic articles, but it’s really outdone itself.
“Those of us on the left should be fighting to improve protections for workers of all races, and thereby for the betterment of people’s material conditions regardless of their views,” Arash Azizi argues:
Why the Cinnabon Story Doesn’t Make Me Happy
The left should be promoting working-class solidarity, not delighting in seeing workers summarily dismissed.

Ok now the culture wars are coming for fonts. Would like someone to explain how font choice is wasteful www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12...
US State Department to revert to Times New Roman font over 'wasteful' Calibri
In a leaked internal cable, Secretary of State Marco Rubio calls the department's decision to adopt Calibri in 2023 a "wasteful" diversity move.

I get that "foods that didn't exist 10 years ago" is a bit of a shorthand, but maybe define what is actually wrong with them. Ultra-processed is a pretty poorly defined term. www.smh.com.au/national/foo...
Foods that didn’t exist 10 years ago are putting baby and toddler health at risk
Parents are being hoodwinked by misleading marketing of ultra-processed snacks for babies and toddlers that claims the foods are healthy and natural.

My position on the social media ban is that it's a pretty blunt tool wielded without much nuance, so maybe I am biased. Still, the condescending, gloating tone taken by politicians and the media this morning is doing my head in.

I hate folding sheets, so I tend to wash them and put them back on the bed. However, I read something that advised just putting on fresh sheets when you strip the bed, because then it's done and you can fold sheets in your own time. I hate to admit it, but they have a point.

It's always interesting the person who can accurately judge in a group of strangers, that it's an audience who will be open to a vigorous sledging of the behaviour we all just witenessed

I’ve tried to ignore the Tarantino discourse because he’s in the category of person whose work I’ve enjoyed where the less I know about them the happier I am. But Matthew Lillard? You can go fuck yourself QT

Now and then, I think of that episode of Law & Order: SVU where a murder occurs at a factory that produces homestyle Italian foods, and one of the big reveals at the end of the episode is that the Nonna running the company is actually of Irish descent.

Thinking that Jordan Peterson and Olivia Nuzzi should collaborate on a book, just so we can see what the world's most overwrought, self-satisfied writing that says nothing of substance would look like.

This being 2025, you can only imagine how cringe any name this "movement" will be. www.afr.com/politics/fed...
Talk grows about new movement to replace ‘irretrievable’ Liberals
With the Liberal Party at one of its lowest ebbs with voters, some disaffected members are starting to think a new political movement might be the answer.

If you're worried about your deliveries being stolen off your front porch, I recommend having a massive stack of cardboard you're not quite sure how to recycle there, so the packages blend right in. Follow me for more life hacks.

This reminds me of the time I was talking to a pet shop owner who said that because they live so long, you need succession planning when you buy a Macaw.
Consider the following before adopting a Manticore for your family

I have not cringed so much listening to an interview since Naomi Wolf learned live on the BBC that the factual basis of her book was incorrect.

I am at an age where I have to exercise regularly otherwise my body hurts, but then I exercise and different parts of my body hurt. Plus I have a headache because I had to get up early.

Using AI to do some research. It's showing its thinking as it goes. One of its thoughts is apparently "The list does not need to be perfect". How about you leave half-arsing it to the humans, machine?
