Some people want a life partner who’s the perfect adult: always on top of the lawn care, the taxes, and who to vote for in the next municipal election.
Me, personally? All I want is a lover who makes every moment fun and hilarious. That’s why my dating app bio says, “Please don’t take life too seriously!”
When I meet the woman of my dreams, she’ll be a goofball, a rascal, and a fun-loving troublemaker—in that order. I can just picture our first date. We won’t greet with some awkward, straitlaced hug. We’ll instinctively do a fist bump, leading into a fist kaboom, leading into finger birdies, leading into a pirate dance, leading into a light make-out.
We won’t care about that dumb biographical exchange that normies love: “What do you do for work? Oh, do you like teaching? Any siblings? Thoughts on Roth-IRAs? Favorite toothpaste?” Stop, because I need to kill myself.
Instead, my date will smile deviously and say, “Guess where I’m from.”
And I’ll say, “Is it… terrestrial?”
And she’ll say, “Not exactly.”
And I’ll say, “In that case… Glorp glorp glorp glorp.”
And she’ll say, “Glorp glorp. Glorp?”

March 20th marks the 20th anniversary of the US-led invasion of Iraq. The ensuing war and occupation resulted in, in all likelihood, more than a million deaths and saw the Iraqi state smashed to smithereens. It sent shockwaves reverberating around the wider region, greatly strengthening the terrorism it professed to be combating. A month before […]

Starmer/Reeves less trusted on the economy than the appalling Sunak/Hunt The latest poll by Opinium shows the Keir Starmer/Rachel Reeves combination is more toxic to voters than the Tory pair of Rishi Sunak and Jeremy Hunt – whose recent budget has compounded hardship and misery for millions struggling under the effects of Tory budgets and […]

I’ve lived through quite a few financial crises, some local to Australia, and others global. Invariably, the first failures are those of obvious shonks (Australianism?) who would probably have failed anyway. Then there are seemingly reputable institutions that turn out to have been shonky. Then there are institutions that played by the rules, but it […]
