Watched #AllThePresidentsMen on #SBS tonight

I find it really hard to get my head around the difference in how this movie would have landed to someone watching it 20 years ago, to how it seems to someone watching it today

Thanks @realphilgold.bsky.social

I’d completely forgotten Dr Sydney Watson existed

Rinehart say condemning the actions of Ben Roberts-Smith is somehow the same as attacking the Australian Defence Forces . . .

. . . when in fact no one has done more damage to the reputation of the ADF than Robert-Smith himself.

Ever.

Quiz question from today’s paper:

“What Lawrence Oates last words before he died in the Antarctic in 1912 . . .?

My daughter’s answer:

“Check out the penguins . . .!”

What are you really gambling with?

. . . all the money I’ve embezzled from my clients, obviously . . .

. . . the life savings of the retirees who trusted me . . .

OK

If you are the dude conducting a business meeting, loudly, on your laptop, in the front bar of the pub

That is the single least cool thing ever in the whole history of the world

There are dead vibes splattered all over the floor and walls

And I might not despise you just a little bit ~

Folks, you know I love a shop mannequin

This one was made in Japan

$400 pick up from #Brighton

No, I don’t live in #Gardenvale

I mean the map says I do, but the map is actually wrong

I live in #EastBrighton

I mean I don’t really care which suburb you live in

But I live in Brighton
