Amy bang on as usual, and in politer terms than I'd use.

A gormless, weak leadership at the helm with zero appetite to deliver what's needed. And an opposition so loathsome they've been all but wiped out

Australian politics 101: Getting the lessons wrong every time

If one thing is true for all mainstream political parties, it’s that they will always learn the wrong lessons.

Yeah, that's what I don't get. If it's blatant, the ref will just keep adding time. But it's awful to watch because I think they're better than that

You know, overall, I think the Roar did enough there against Perth, but they were lucky at times.

But lordy, I'm frustrated by the time wasting. They're better than that #PerVBri

That's such a shame for Lincoln there in #PerVBri she made a brilliant tackle but her defenders let her down.

This time wasting by Brisbane though is disgusting and I personally hate it

He must've really had his head so far up his backside he couldn't see daylight if he thought that was a shock victory

Dusting off 20 year old out of date skills to pick up motion design and 3d with #unrealengine. Taking me longer than I'd like, but slowly getting there.

Still, my instance mesh rotations disappearing because I scaled one axis to 0 wasn't on my bingo card. Frustrating!

Continuing to Leeroy Jenkins their way into irrelevance

Heeeeeeeey it's Tameka! #BriVsMVC

Daniel Stratton @strattonds.bsky.social · 8d

Can't say I'm super surprised by Varley getting a yellow, nature of the enforcer role. She came so close hitting the cross bar though.

Great opening game for the Roar so far #BriVsMVC

Woohoo, all tied up! Great to see Kijah back on deck. Jansen having a blinder for her first game too #BriVsMVC

Daniel Stratton @strattonds.bsky.social · 8d

Oh no, second against in #BriVsMVC. Bugger. Well played in from the back post, and defender wrong sided of goal.

Well earned goal, but frustrating!

Daniel Stratton @strattonds.bsky.social · 8d

Avoided the results and watching the #BriVsMVC women's game. Wish could've seen it live but for the weather risk.

30 minutes in and a gripping game so far. Great start so far and still a Varley stan, she's so fun to watch.

Nice to see the fresh blood linking in so well so far!

Looking spiffy!

Angry 90s music is brilliant for that

Yeah, Hughesy isn't a great watch, not a fan of either. I used to watch the amazing race and Survivor, but got burnt out on it

Daniel Stratton @strattonds.bsky.social · 9d

Honestly, apart from The Cheap Seats and Have You Been Paying Attention, we don't watch free to air at all anymore. Even there, we watch on catch up

Non local news, crap reality TV and more ads than you can poke a stick at makes it truly awful as an experience.

An excellent suggestion I should've taken before I had a kid :)

Good for you! Far smarter than anything I did

You don't mess with the Zohran.

No. You don't judge a book by its cover, and whatever he is wearing has nothing to do with his ability (or lack thereof) to do his job.

It continues the belief that only good looking or stylish people have value, and that if you "Just look the part" it's good enough.

It's not.

Too late to stay up with the little one to watch the #Matildas but oh the joy of tomorrow when we can watch the game on replay together!

As an xbox user, I don't mind - spread your games everywhere, let people enjoy it.

But don't bugger your own user base at the same time

They are deeply, deeply unserious people, with too much money and (hopefully waning) influence

I mean, it can be any amount of margin when your revenue ends up at 0 I guess

So, unaffordable. Awesome
