No point comparing physical characteristics. Football (soccer) has a generic term for measuring a good game “quality”. This women’s World Cup proves equality in play. Outstanding.

@maxstainkamph So far!

There’s a licensing agreement but you can’t change history, feel the same way about Tasmania having to negotiate with Warner Bros over Tassie Devil, they hav a cartoon character to protect but they can’t own the name of an indigenous Tasmanian critter.

Walked into Dan Murphy in Shepparton today and staff were wearing hoodies with big bold “Furphy born in Geelong” on the back. Felt like walking out in disgust @adamfurphy

@voices4nicholls @maxstainkamph @SamBirrellMp Check Hansard, it was a Greens amendment that Labor was using its numbers to vote down.

@NickMcCallum7 For Mushroom’s 30th he leapt out of a cake in drag and sang happy birthday in his best Marilyn Monroe, then sauntered over to the tv crews and asked “how did I do?”

@StevoMedia Flowers - best debut Aussie album ever

@nyunggai Bbq in July? A purely practical consideration.

@maxstainkamph The weather, I think we need to privatise it, Mother Nature has lost the plot.

[Darren Linton @Gobble65]

@maxstainkamph Ludicrous, who do we call?

[Darren Linton @Gobble65]

Massive game by both sides, massive controversy to end it. #BledisloeCup

@markwasho @GeelongCatsFC @Richmond_FC Stewart has been admirable post bump, unlike many others on both sides of the fence.

@masonsixtencox Welcome

The Greens flag failure is aligned to their vote, they represent a small minority of Australians mostly attracted by their environmental credentials not their broader whacky policy. It’s the bonus steak knives that truly represent their values.

Day off so watched hours of committee hearings as you do. My concise summary, TRUMP DID IT.

No health system or any workplace can or should fund a surplus workforce of up to 35% in case of critical shortages as we are now seeing. To suggest it’s a consequence of neglect is ignoring reality.

Dear America, God doesn’t solve things, prayers don’t solve things, guns don’t solve things. Faith, morals, belief are useful, but people solve things. Leaders solve things, they don’t do nothing.

@GerardWhateley history says despite ticketing, scheduling, pricing, overcharging for food and beer, and fluctuating team fortunes, the game has been compelling and spectator numbers have grown - something is off.

[Darren Linton @Gobble65]

Have launched my answer to over complicated and theatrical weather forecasts. Let’s see if simple weather takes off.

After losing moderates to independents Dutton urged on by Sky After Dark will orchestrate a lurch right ignoring all the signals the electorate sent and leading the Libs down a route to further failure. Open your eyes and close your ears to the hard right cheer squad people.
