"Russian disinformation" is the one of the most effective pieces of propaganda the US has ever produced, and the US is pretty damn good at producing effective propaganda (you do not gotta hand it to them)

It always annoys me how bent out of shape people get over pronunciation of city and place names in other languages. Some languages have different sounds and thus things are said differently.

The Chinese word for Australia is "Audaliya" and even the frothist of frothers don't go complaining about it (I hope)

3 is a dumpster fire, but some people like it and that's okay(but I do not and will not).

Fury Road is tied with 1, but is so different a movie it's silly to compare.

I have not seen Furiosa.

**In short: **

Six Labor MPs including assistant minister Ged Kearney want their government to change its decision not to include gender identity and sexuality in the census.

Labor frontbenchers have said the decision was made to avoid a "divisive" debate but the MPs say the government should stick to the principle in Labor's national platform.

I'm glad they included a fire emoji after "self-imolated" I wasn't sure if that involved fire or not
