Charles Grodin (born on this day) absolutely wrecked De Niro in Midnight Run. At one point, he needles him so relentlessly that De Niro cracks, breaks for a split-second, looks right at camera, and mutters: “pain in the ass this guy is.”
Grodin waits a beat… then hits him again.
[Recap:] David Mitchell comedy drama Ludwig has reportedly already been commissioned for a third run. Series 2 arrives on TV later this year.

If the Albanese government had introduced a 25% gas export tax when it was first elected, it would have raised more than $63 billion!
Free childcare or free uni shouldn't be a pipe dream. If big gas paid their fair share, Australians would be better off.

@profbensaul@ChristineMilne Sure…hard to forgive him for being part of the Kerr Whitlam dismissal conspiracy.
He trashed his integrity in that shameful episode.
What a crock of shit, witches.
What an absolute crock of steaming worm-infested slimy vomitous cowshit.
Because today, ACMA has published the “additional licence conditions” they’ve just imposed on ARN Media. Their Press Release is in the first link and the new licence conditions in the second:

This organisation, the Australian Communications and Media Authority, which exists (or is meant to) largely to protect Australians from disgraceful and dangerous media content, has once again proven what a stupid and ineffectual group of posers they really, truly are.
Because MAKE NO MISTAKE: this announcement (coming just ONE DAY before ARN Media are expected to terminate Kyle’s contract for good) is designed for one thing, and one thing only.
That is, to make it look like ACMA are the body responsible for Kyle’s probable departure (for now) from Australian airwaves.
When ALL OF US KNOW they’re in contrast a useless, toothless and depraved body of cowardly officialdom who care NOTHING for the rights of Australians harmed by media, and instead spend their time hiding behind monstrous regulations designed to ensure no presenter or show is ever taken off air or properly punished no matter how disgusting the content.
Indeed, we’re fucked if we can see anything in either of those links which truly punishes Kyle, Jackie or ARN for methodically broadcasting filth, misogyny, racism and violence around Australia for years, other than yet another nonsense wet lettuce slap which means NOTHING in the face of the deluge of punch-down hate Kyle has engaged in for decades.
Can anyone else?
Some additional “reporting”???
What the fuck does that mean?
Those of us who understand ACMA know it’s almost impossible to even MAKE a complaint to them, let alone have them take it seriously. You can’t complain about anything more than 30 days after it’s happened (say what?). You also can’t complain to ACMA first, but must first go through the arduous shitfucked process of complaining to the broadcaster, who’ll send you a bunch of made-up bullshit in response and laugh in your face while they do it. And then, even if you DO succeed in making it through every roadblock in the way of making a serious complaint (and there are MANY such roadblocks), they won’t even accept your submission if it looks similar to one sent in by someone else. They let NOTHING stand in their way of bamboozling and duping Australians into thinking their concerns matter, while hiding behind their craven officialdom which ensures media companies do WHATEVER THE FUCK THEY WANT in this country.
GIVE US A FUCKING BREAK.
These ACMA people are shifty, shameless gronks.
What’s more, we here at MFW are DOING THEIR FUCKING WORK FOR THEM. And they’re trying to take the credit.
They’re utterly shameless, and endlessly embarrassing.
And what’s even more than that is the media and our politicians will make a BIG FUCKING DEAL out of this announcement today, despite that it contains NOTHING of interest or value or which makes any of us safer. All they all care about is protecting their cushy overpaid jobs and their shady yet mutually beneficial relationships, where they get to pretend they care about Australians while actually doing JACK SHIT to help any of us anytime ever.
They can issue press releases and bleat on about what they do all they like, because WE ALL KNOW THE TRUTH.
Fuck sake, witches.
FUCK SAKE.

@ajamesbragg Dear Senator @ajamesbragg the CGT “discount” is a tax break which, with negative gearing on not one or two but multiple houses, has made property investors a distorting dominance in the market. The fact that you don’t acknowledge this is revealing.
