Excellent gig last night watching Pulp at the Myer Music Bowl. Common people was transcendent.

It must be nice to be a sociopath, because all the new products are for you. The smart glasses will give you that woman’s address, the betting apps will finally let you make bank on war crimes.

I don’t think Albo is really a misogynist. But I think he can’t think on his feet.
He shouldn’t be let out without a minder β€” and never to a News Corp event.
