It's a news week this one - and it's time to bitch about Dan Andrews. Should he be jailed for cancelling the commonwealth games? Well, according to some. The call to cancel the games was a good one, but was it for reasons he kinda created? Sorta? Maybe. Kinda. Yeah.

Maria Zee thinks the money will be spent elsewhere. What she says is fun and totally reasonable.

Then we move on to the ACMA combatting misinformation and disinformation bill 2023. Will this result in people being thrown in jail for going against 'the narrative' (whatever that is)? No.

The cookers, including our cooked senators (you know who I mean) are up in arms about this disinfo bill for reasons that aren't in the bill. If you're surprised by this then you're not paying attention. The bill is ironically necessary for a lot of the takes on telegram but also somewhat ironically those takes which are absolutely disinformation wouldn't pass the bar set in the legislation to be actionable by ACMA and/or the courts.

And then Pete gets uncancelled by Kyle and Jackie-O who did literally no research on why he was cancelled before he came on. Old Parachute Pete gets another free pass and a bunch of promotion for his evolve retreats. Great!

Last but not least, huge thankyou to everyone who has donated so far to the vanuatu fund.

Fundraiser will continue for a couple weeks and we've had some very big generous donations coming in - but a few bucks, even a fiver or a tenner will help make a difference. Thanks legends!
