The raunchy medieval literary classic, The Decameron by Giovanni Boccoccio (1313-75), has nothing on the sordid tryst between the NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian and disgraced Liberal MP Daryl Maguire. More than a little appropriately, both are set in a time of plague. But more broadly, [...]

One of my sons was coaching a year 4 and 5 boys sports team recently when -- in one of the rest breaks -- they all broke out into the song and dance moves of Cardi-B’s WAP. Just stop and let that sink in for [...]

This week’s Presidential debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden signalled a new nadir in public discourse. Like so many others, I literally switched off after approximately twenty-minutes. I just couldn’t take any more. In a sign of how crazy things have become, the following [...]

In a year of ongoing global protests involving Black Lives Matter™, any artwork addressing racial inequality was always going to be popular. But the fact that Vincent Namatjira’s piece has won the 2020 Archibald Art Prize is ironically, a self-portrait of the systemic racism currently [...]

Amy Coney Barrett. That’s the woman President Trump is nominating to be the next Supreme Court Justice, replacing Ruth Bader Ginsburg. At only 48 years old, this is an appointment that is truly once in a generation. According to The Weekend Australian, “Barrett is deeply [...]

Ever since Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s providential passing, the radical doctrinaire feminist has been receiving -- even from conservatives -- something approaching an encomium of praise. In fact, CNN is reporting that Ginsburg “will become the first woman in history to lie in state in the [...]

Poor Pirate Pete, his progressive poll on who the populace think will be the next US President produced a perplexing result. https://twitter.com/Peter_Fitz/status/1293337187916734464   Undeterred, Pontius Pirate had an explanation for the embarrassing result, tweeting: https://twitter.com/Peter_Fitz/status/1293828731937492993   Yep, that’s right, it was the Russians!
