‘Glowing oranger than usual under the stage lights, Trump eagerly put the medal around his neck without waiting for Infantino to do the honours. He told the audience of 2,000 people: “This is truly one of the great honours of my life.”‘

AI slop was the clear winner of Macquarie’s Word of the Year – it also won the People’s Choice Award. Honourable mentions included another AI-related word: clanker.

I’ve spent a lot of the last three years investigating the rise of anti-trans politics. Often, it came back to the controversy over trans women athletes.

So I teamed up with @pablo.show to look into the leading figure on the issue: Riley Gaines.

The swimmer tied a trans woman for fifth. The MAGA industrial complex took care of the rest.

End all funding every single private employment services provider.

Salt the earth so those in change of them never get any public money ever again - run them out of the country.

My first ever concert was KISS at Sydney Showground in 1980 at the tender age of 10, and it was the trigger for a lifelong love of live music and heavy rock played as loudly as possible. (It’s possibly also why I ended up marrying a drummer.)

Rock on, Ace.
