He'll always be 'Smoko' to me.
I'm wondering, too. Maybe something to do with this...?

Screenshot from the Australian War Memorial library catalogue which reads: Over-sexed, over-paid, and over here : Americans in Australia, 1941-1945 / John Hammond Moore.
The Australian opinion from World War II. (I've heard the Brits substituted 'over-fed' for 'over-sexed'.)
😥
I'm boycotting everything American that I feasibly and reasonably can.

USofA, this is how ithers see you.
I'm sure I had s pinned post... It's been there so long it's probably time to unpin it but I didn't do that myself - unless there's been a telepathic interface upgrade? 🤔
A German soccer federation executive committee member says it's time to consider a World Cup boycott because of the actions of U.S. President Donald Trump.
I was curious about the criteria to stand for election as president of the USofA so I looked it up. Then I looked up standing for election as an Australian federal MP. Very interesting to compare. Very glad to be here.

Has anyone analysed *those* social media posts in relation to weird capitalisation, odd punctuation and bad grammar? Could they be code...? #OperationOverlord
My very words.
Palantir was founded by Peter Thiel (the Project 2025 bloke) and it appears he's still involved with it. Given what's happening in Yankland, having this mob so close to us can't be good.
AP has the story

If I saw the photos and videos coming out of Minnesota today without sound and without context, I'd assume they were from Northern Ireland during the Troubles.
Ah, the good old days...
A suggestion purely for scanning purposes:
'Minor leckie thing of the heart'
So refreshing to read a speech from a world leader who's a grown up.

Probably not getting a refund either. Still, worth a try - I hope Smoko kept the receipt.
I say 'logic', but, well...
His logic seems to be, 'a person on the bus wouldn't give up their seat for me, so now I'm going to punch a cabbie'.

Dear @heardislandgov.bsky.social I saw this and thought of you.

Hey @albomp.bsky.social , are we “all the way with DJT”? Because I think we Australians are going to need a little reassurance from you that this is NOT your idea of a safe alliance either, and that being blu-tacked to a lunatic will not end well for us.
Thanks for your consideration.

Just a reminder that another Jonathan Ross is available.
