Dame Edna, completely straight-faced, tells Parkinson that looking out at the San Francisco audience she saw all these โdisoriented peopleโ clinging to each other โ same-sex couples โ โdoing funny things.โ Then the kicker: โBut theyโre peopleโฆ and who knows, they may get well.โ
The delivery is pure soft-focus housewife kindness. No raised eyebrow, no โIโm jokingโ signal. Just Edna being Edna while the room does that half-laugh, half-hold-breath thing.
Itโs the exact moment you remember why Barry Humphries could get away with almost anything: the character is so airtight that the most vicious line still sounds like something your aunt might mutter over tea. Today that clip would be screenshotted and ratioed before the credits.
Then it just sat on BBC2 and people either roared or quietly decided they hadnโt quite heard it right.
Exactly, man. Sandpaper happened eight years ago. If they wanted to dig deeper, they should have done it back then, not dragged it all up now. What's done is done. It's time to move on.
I stand to benefit from @AlboMP and @JEChalmers' capital gains tax changes, and are fighting them.
They will make it harder for young Australians to invest, build businesses and get ahead.

Kimberly Powell had been set to speak at the opening session of the Milken Future of Health Summit tomorrow AM, on a panel Iโm moderating. I just heard from organizers that sheโs cancelled her planned attendance. Weโve reached out to Nvidia on this report https://t.co/st8915rVFS
Suppose NVIDIA decided to remove Jensen Huang as CEO.

RE: Nvidia. Over the last few days, I decided not to speculate over Jensen's future and to let the facts emerge before commenting.
Many people have cited my book as saying Nvidia would be completely lost without Jensen Huang.
My views have evolved in the several years since I wrote those passages.
I now believe there is a strong internal candidate with the technical expertise, experience, customer relationships and respect of employees needed to lead Nvidia effectively into its next chapter.
I will say more in due time.
