What's @patrickstokes.com been drinking the whiskey equivalent of horse p*** again? 🤔🤦🏻‍♀️

Hey @gbbranstetter.bsky.social, can you pass this on to Becky for me, as a investigative journalist, sport reporter & trans athlete in Australia?

It's NFL... What do you expect? 😏

Probably worthwhile doing a submission to the Royal Commission on this when it's up and fully running, Cathy. I think I can guess where a lot of this is coming from, and that sort of abuse needs to be addressed as a part of this.

What the.... ? 🤦🏻‍♀️

You aren't going to break out into "Little River Band" songs due to this are you, Cathy? 😉

You know what would be even better? If @wendyharmer.bsky.social & @kirstywebeck.bsky.social used that together as inspiration for a skit on this sorry saga for the comedy festivals. Two of the smartest & funniest women alive from two of the legendary eras of Aussie comedy would be truly exquisite.

ABC Local Radio is better than both during emergencies like this, as @sedvitae.bsky.social can attest.

No....

Now it's perfect... 😏

I think that this will be a most interesting "Light Blue", if City bring a "can do" approach. Uffy's Sky Blues won't be taking prisoners regardless of what attitude Aurelio's merry band of mischief-makers brings though.

Yeah, and my point is that Americans have liked censorship a lot in the past, if it's suited the social climate. It's why the Civil Rights Era, various protest movements and most recently the fights over book bans etc have been so defining. Genuine change takes time, and America is no exception.

Is it? The United States has been ruthlessly effective at silencing free speech throughout its history, if it hasn't fitted the narrative of those in power, perceived or otherwise. World Wars, LGBTI+, First Nations Americans, African Americans, People with disabilities, just to name a few.

If those videos are correct, what does that suggest to you regarding the logistics situation towards the front for the Russians, Sir?

By that I don't just mean the vehicle shortage, but various battlefield consumables as well that allow an armed force to fight effectively as units. Any thoughts?

Sometimes the right decision can be to stay put & ensure that your own work as a journalist is done with integrity, accuracy & the utmost levels of professionalism.

I honestly can't see Weiss lasting long term, as her culture war approach doesn't fit with CBS News's audience. Money talks & walks.

"A leading academic..." 👀
Somebody at the BBC either hasn't done their research or has possibly been hitting the turps, as none of Sullivan's work is considered "Leading".
