In memoriam. Australian Journalism. Judd Wept

lol, its an experimental, improvisational noise/psych music band. I’ve found the name of my new band :slight_smile:

Rivener

n.

a chilling hint of distance that creeps slowly into a relationship— beginning to notice them laugh a little less, look away a little more, explain away their mood like it’s no longer your business—as if you’re watching them fall out of love right in front of you, gradually and painfully, like a hole in the radiator that leaves your house a little colder with every passing day, whose only clue is a slow, unnerving drip—drip —drip.

Middle English riven, to rend, to cleave apart. Pronounced “riv-uh-ner.”

Now it’s an even better band name

Clare finds cover ups of industrial pedophile rape boring. Can Clare be made aware of our Blitz Hot Takes thread? She’s got a pearler

There are many facets to the Epstein case whether its the sex trafficking part, money laundering, spying, arms running, international diplomacy etc. Usually, people will have an interest in one or two of these areas.

‘The Age’ is running this image after the arrest of Kazem Hamad in Iraq.

I guess that’s why he’s described as a “Mr Big”.

I am trying to work out whether he will ever be extradited back to Australia, considering that after his previous jail sentence, he was deported back Iraq. I really don’t know how this ends up.

Could go in about 5 threads, but I’ll put it here.

Credit to him though. Some time ago he wore the same tie for a whole year and no one noticed and he did it to prove a point, thay everyone is so fixated on what women wear and look like and no one even noticed that he wore the same tie for a year.

Probably because the journalists know that if they question too much they will lose their accreditation and livelihood. Was it Bush who had the “dont ask, dont tell” program?

Journalists know who fund their employers but we are the ones who miss out.

Has Mick Warner got his AFL accreditation back?

He basically hovers in the air spinning horizontally somewhere over North Sumatra for eternity.
