Just some footage of Australia beating the Americans, oh its so good!!!! But something I noticed the Russians are still allowed to compete as "neutral athletes", **** that the bastards should be banned from competing for anything.

I'm a big fan of Dr Roy's lectures, his series on the crusades is excellent.

All I really have for the start of this thread is Operation Midnight Hammer? Sounds like the title of a dodgy porn film.

We are going!!!!!!

Albo returned to power with what looks like an increased majority. As a sweetener that fascist prick Dutton is getting kicked out of Parliament. What a great ****ing night SOLIDARITY FOREVER COMRADES!!!

I post this tribute to the late Pope here in the politics section, the death of a Pope is an overtly political moment. Better people will pay tribute to the late holy father, I'm surprised by how affected I've been by his death. I think mostly because as Pope, Francis was a real spiritual...

Honestly 2024 has been the worst year of my life, it can **** right off. This year really cant be any worse, unless I die which I wouldn't mind too much. Wishing everyone a great year.

Kick it off with Ian Hislop's review of the year, Ian is the editor of Private Eye a British political satire magazine, I've watched his reviews that last few years. I always find Ian both hilarious and erudite and has a knack for just making sense.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/dec/04/unitedhealthcare-ceo-brian-thompson-shot So I noticed there is no thread on this, anyone want to talk about it? I would think that the vast majority of us would conclude that murder is inherently an immoral act. On the other hand, is presiding...

So I miss the elegance and footwork of great low post play and hate the way that analytics has removed the midrange and post game from the sport. I like the idea of pushing the 3 point line back significantly, there should always be a place in the game for a dagger but it should be harder. Discuss

I love an easy YouTube recipe so I thought id start a thread I eat steak and eggs for breakfast 3 or 4 times a week, I had no idea it was a traditional Australian breakfast I just figured its what people ate for breakfast everywhere... This dude is a bit over the top with the spuds and...

Place to talk all things football, Champions league, EPL, World Cup qualifiers and so on.

So Trump is looking and acting more and more like a loser. So it has me thinking what happens if he loses? Will there be violence? Will he claim the election is stolen? Will he accept defeat? Will he run again? What happens to the the Republican Party? For me there is no way he goes...

After a weekend of organised far right violence across the UK, it leaves me with some very disturbing thoughts; 1. How can this be happening? how are the lessons of history lost on so many. 2. How much of it can be blamed on the former Tory government and their media supporters at Newscorp? 3...

Wikileaks front man Assange is set to enter a plea deal with the US and return to Australia. overall this is a decent outcome, all be it 10 years too late. I will openly admit I hate Julian Assange and I think he's a detestable person, however what he did with WikiLeaks was incredibly...

General Olympic discussion thread. I'll kick it off with the spinelessness of the IOC for allowing Russian athletes to compete and where is the discussion around banning Israeli athletes give the massacre that's going on in Gaza? Now I know that after Munich the banning of Israel would be a...

So I'm sort of familiar with Ice hockey and the rules, I'm more interested in the money. What's the annual payroll of a NHL team? What would a star player be on per season? I know they have bigger rosters than the NBA but I'm guessing the cap is much lower? What are the costs? Don't most...

The Final Four is here, who does everybody like? I'd like Perdue to take it out, call me sentimental but i love a 7'4 big man who doesn't shoot the 3 dominating the game.

So my mum is about to enter end of life care, its unfortunately the trajectory of things. Im gonna resign from my job tomorrow and stay the course with mum to the end. Financially I should be ok for at least 6 months, more than enough time to get mum sorted with whatever she needs. If I need...
