So @united sends me to the phone number, on the phone message it literally says “we will send you a text”, cannot send text to international numbers. This is an airline. United AI has been in hellish loop.

Hey @united the reward for my flight that got in at midnight was that you left my bag in SF. After I explicitly told the team to check it was going to Vancouver. You have left your staff with no tools to deal with issues when they come up. (#Shoutsintothevoid)

Gambling is a grubby business. It’s not ‘entertainment’, but an exploitative industry promoting addictive products that cause harm on an epic scale. Australia is the epicentre of gambling harm because of the failure of politicians to regulate proportionately and courageously.

Taking advantage of inflation.
Absolutely shameful.
"Coles reports 8% surge in annual profit to $1.1bn amid cost-of-living crisis"
What's worse is that one of Coles charity partners, Foodbank Victoria, had to seek public food donations as they've been critically low in stock #auspol

Arguments a total ad ban would move gambling to offshore illegal providers "a load of baloney" - says online gambling pioneer Stewart Kenny. Says he used the same false argument all the time when he was a gambling lobbyist. It's time to #EndGamblingAds abc.net.au/listen/programs/r…

At the heart of the Walking Dead is a dangerous fantasy; that in the face of global disaster, the heroes are the individuals who live.
Hollywood fantasies edify tales of individual survival of self-induced apocalypse rather than tales of its collective prevention. 🧵/1

Politics is downstream from culture. If we believe WE will be the ones who survive climate change no doubt that belief changes how we prioritise action to avoid the literal end of the world (as we know it). /4

I pray Harris does not repeat the Obama-era Dem deployment of pop culture to lure in young voters
It is REPELLENT to today’s irony-pilled youth
No rallies with Beyoncé or Gaga. No celeb cameo Acapela songs. IGNORE the Brat stuff. Just campaign & let memes percolate organically

The debate was a travesty—because its whole premise was to treat a failed coup leader as a legitimate candidate for the presidency again, @DavidFrum writes. theatlantic.com/politics/arc…

Great job @MichaelReganMP
“[It] needs to be at least 15 per cent affordable social housing in perpetuity with TODs, not 2 per cent so, so our teachers, nurses, drivers, cleaners, cooks, police … can live and work in their communities.”

This is one of the best take downs I have seen on the internet and a perfect illustration of the absurd sentence given to David McBride.

What gets me about Peter Stefanovic's racist interview is that for weeks, months Australia has had non-stop shitty news 24/7
This was a great story to lift everyone's spirits & Stefanovic destroyed that
He deserves to be sacked immediately.
