Germany inserting itself into the Israel/Eurovision debate is exactly what's needed...

Can we not get some walls around a hotel bathroom in Germany?

"State Library" and "Town Hall" are not new stations on the Melbourne Metro network. They're just extensions of Melbourne Central and Flinders St stations.

Now do the airport and charge normal Myki fares.

It wasn't the best food in the world but it meant I could find something to eat in most corners of Germany at most times.

Compare the pair.
Two news stories shown together. One about pheasants marked up by me as "pheasant", the other about Elon Musk's wealth marked up by me as "unpleasant".

Diana Buttu speaking with clarity on Radio National about the Trump/Netanyahu 'peace plan': "Palestinians are being forced to negotiate an end to their genocide."

"Palestinians are being forced to negotiate an end to their genoicde" - Palestinian lawyer Diana Buttu - ABC listen
There are early signs from Hamas that it could reject the Gaza plan announced by Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump this week. President Trump says the group has “three to four days” to respond or face the consequences. An unnamed Hamas official has told the BBC the group is likely to reject the plan, saying it “serves Israel’s interests” and “ignores those of the Palestinian people.”

Having sat through the entire Trump / Netanyahu presser, I feel the overwhelming need for a shower.

ABC Insiders broadcasted from the BBC studios in London and they still found space on the panel / in the plane for Australia's most useless journo: Phil Coorey.

An interesting BBC investigation into Russian interference in Sunday's Moldovan election. Concerningly, Georgia's experience shows that one democratic setback for Russia's neighbours can mean the end of democratic freedoms.

The AFL service for those overseas (watchafl dot com dot au) offers a Grand Final "pass" because at €34 most people would *pass*.

If anyone more interested in sportsball than me knows how to watch for free overseas, send a tip this way!

Netanyahu's response to the recognition of the State of Palestine by multiple states (below) could be interpreted as an imminent annexation.

"There will be no Palestinian state to the west of the Jordan River.

For years I have prevented the creation of that terror state, against tremendous […]

Trump still sore about Letterman's Trump or Monkey segments decades later.

Trump post: Whatever happened to the highly overrated David Letterman, whose ratings were never very good, either. He looks like hell, but at least he knew when to quit. LOSER!!!

Hate to fuel conspiracy theories but Laura Tingle was cut off exactly as she said "South African apartheid moment" in relation to Israel. Who pressed the dump button?

Good: Australia recognising the State of Palestine, alongside Britain and Canada.

Weird: Penny Wong is listed as "Minister fot Foriegn Affairs" on the press release (two spelling mistakes in one job title). It was published by the BBC website but is it genuine?
JOINT STATEMENT ANTHONY ALBANESE Prime Minister of Australia PENNY WONG Leader of the Government in the Senate. Minister fot Foriegn Affairs Effective today, Sunday the 21st of September 2025, the Commonwealth of Australia formally recognises the independent and sovereign State of Palestine. In doing so, Australia recognises the legitimate and long held aspirations of the people of Palestine to a state of their own. Australia's recognition of Palestine today, alongside Canada and the United Kingdom, is part of a co-ordinated international effort to build new momentum for a two-state solution, starting with a ceasefire in Gaza and the release of the hostages taken in the atrocities of October 7, 2023. Today's act of recognition reflects Australia’s longstanding commitment (0: two-state solution, which has always been the only path to enduring peace and security for the Israeli and the Palestinian peoples. ‘The international community has set out clear requirements for the Palestinian Authority. “The President of the Palestinian Authority has restated its recognition of Israel’ right to exist, and given direct undertakings to Australia, including commitments to hold democratic elections and enact significant reform to finance, governance and education. etc 2 Sepember 2025

David Pope captures it beautifully.
Cartoon by David Pope titled "Tall Poppy Syndrome". ABC reporter John Lyons stands holding a microphone amongst reporters bowing flat sycophantically before Donald Trump. Trump points at him and says "Tell the Australian Prime Minister to weed thus one out."

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation's John Lyons has the guts to ask serious questions to Trump's face. When will the rest of the media grow a spine?

If you were Qatar and watched Rubio stand next to Netanyahu while he doesn't rule out more strikes on your country - you'd tell the Americans to clear out their military bases in Qatar right?

What's the point of live Deutsche Welle news when they are reporting reaction to the murdered far-right personality in America while Russian drones are again over Poland and reportedly Romania too.
