Discussion at work about Donald trump (construction, males etc) general consensus is no longer funny because it costs everyone money (price fuel).
1 guy goes “yeah but he speaks the truth”.
He literally doesn’t. Lies every time he opens his mouth. What planet do people live on

Watched Shaun Micallefs going for broke, then immediately saw a sportsbet ad. How stupid are we, males especially? Embarrassing really

The art of the deal
President Trump’s announcement that he had a good conversation with Mexico’s president and would delay most tariffs until April 2 was only the latest example of the punish-by-whim nature of the second Trump presidency. A few hours after the Mexico announcement, Canada got a break too.

Cool and normal
Elon Musk voiced his support for Alternative for Germany, a far-right German political party that has been classified by German intelligence as a suspected extremist organization.

The billionaire Tesla founder wrote in a post on X, the social media platform he owns: “Only the AfD can save Germany.”

Sad that this sort of stuff needs to be said at all.
No nation state is above criticism. You can criticise Israel's actions and policies without it being anti-semitic. It does not make Jewish people safer by conflating criticism of Israel with anti-semitism.

The answer of course: yes, mugs being mugged by Murdoch
"Are we mugs? Absolute mugs?"

Gary Adshead at 6PR can't believe the gas industry is calling to import more gas when 80% of Australia's gas is exported overseas, mostly royalty-free.

@rodcampbell.bsky.social dismantles the gas shortage myth.

This is INSANE. Somehow we have decided as a nation that it's fine to give taxpayer funds to the very richest schools while sabotaging public education. How is this okay? How is this sustainable in any way? www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
Twenty private schools with wealthiest parents received $130m total in Australian public funds in 2023
Data comes as education minister remains stalled in negotiations with states and territories over contributions to Schooling Resource Standard

If you’re upset about President Biden pardoning his son Hunter, wait until I tell you about the time Trump pardoned his son in law’s hooker hiring daddy and made him ambassador to France.

Honestly, I think we are doomed. Most adults I’m speaking to are happy trump won.
Misinformation is winning, from climate change to social equality, economics etc.
As a man in his early 30’s I can’t have any conversations about politics with any male friends. Maybe 1 or 2. Hard to see things change
