The Difference between Australians & Americans | Daniel Muggleton | Stand-Up Comedy 2026

Great bipartisan humour. Goes in on both left and right leaders all in the name of a good laugh.

Never heard of this bloke before but gave me some good chuckles several times, pointing out the biggest difference between us and Americans, we dont (in general) fanboy over politicians.

Most of us could care less about them, as it should be.

They should always fear us.

Why Repeat Young Offenders Never Seem To Face Consequences | Ex Cop Turned Lawyer

Another great video on a very hot topic these days. the second point about Doli Incapax was actually quite interesting. As was the comments about what Juvie is actually like.

✅ Why does it FEEL like nothing happens to repeat offenders? (it's not your imagination)
✅ What is Doli Incapax — and does it actually mean kids don't know right from wrong?
✅ Why do kids get bail after serious or repeat offending?
✅ What is juvie actually like? (this answer might surprise you)
✅ Are these children criminals, victims, or both?
✅ Should parents be held responsible?
✅ Is there a two-tier system?
✅ What would actually fix this?

Stop Importing Religious Wars Into Australia - Let Theocrats Fight Overseas. Not Here.

I’m sharing this as we see a LOT of comments in here of people talking about Zionists, and Zionism. I want to make it VERY clear that I’m no Israel hater, if anything, I empathise with them more, for, reasons.

But I do honestly believe that a lot of folks need to understand better what is happening in the USA right now. There are some religious whack jobs (seems almost every religion has them, some more than others, and all the Judaic ones seem to take the cake for producing psychotic doomsday religious ideologies, from the rapture to Jihads, and a shitload inbetween) influencing politics and Trump seems more than happy to court them, and, encourage them.

The opening line is an actual quote from a sitting US politician I have heard before. ‘If you could only have one country, Israel of the USA, which would you choose to survive, and yes, he did say read revelations and come back to me.’

The USA of old is not the same anymore, and people need to factor this in to discussions around our relationship with them, and, remember this when discussing any theocratic nation, yes, Palestine, Iran, etc as well.

Religion should not be in politics. And we need to stop getting politically involved in religious wars. Yes pro-Palestine crowd, that’s directed at you.

And before you bring up jet fighter parts to Israel, look into who else is in those our global defence supply chain agreements. We also supply weapons/materials to UAE, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, India, Phillipines, Turkey, USA, etc, so remember this when you call for us to stop supplying parts in a global supply chain agreement for one nation. Some of those are our regional allies, so you can’t even say we shouldn’t deal with them. These are “global” agreements.

Let these religious nuts fight it out on overseas shores. Not here. Not ever.

Some thoughts on the new workbench upgrades

So, first up, I'm the lowest of low, a scummy PvE player. I love the mechanics of Rust, and am an a more distinguished gentleman (old cunt basically) so prefer a more chill server.

That said, I like to craft and sell shit for others. So, I spend a lot of time grinding resources (I play a Hardcore PvE server as its more enjoyable for me, I like the extra challenge managing resources.

The new items for the workbench are a novel idea and overall, pretty damned good, but I feel some tweaks are in order.

Previous to this, you only stayed at your workbench when crafting something urgent, or, when running a crafting tea and making armour, so you could craft as much as possible before the tea ran out. Now, with 2 accessories in particular, you are tied there for the full craft duration to get maximum benefit.

The recycle bin workbench upgrade gives a 10% chance to refund raw ingredients, pretty good TBH, but after a few ruins, yep, you have to stay at the bench it seems to have this activate. Same goes for the bonus chance of crafting an extra item with the Efficiency Workbench Upgrade. Not an issue if you are just pressing craft and going AFK, sure, but I can imagine this will see folks wasting a lot of time they could spend doing other things, and for you PvP chads, yeah, pretty sure this will impact you unless you have a good base bitch. Solo's on PvP servers must be torn.

If it was a base chance applied at pressing craft, that would be better, but would need to be locked in and not something that players abuse by pressing craft and cancel until they get best odds. Unsure how they could do that, but yeah.

Anyway, just the view of a humble PvE trader player.

Free Zuckles and Charlie needs to apologise to Ser Winter.

I tried watching one of Karl’s shows and quickly realised he makes Joe Rogan look like Albert Einstein. But Punters break down of the interview was quite fascinating. Karl was VERY ordinary, couldn’t even get Punters channel right at the start. And they apparently only let him know after 5pm by email that they had invited her along, he arrived and had no idea it was going to be a debate.

But the real star was the shadow energy minister, she is a literal POS. That said, I would have preferred they had invited the actual Energy Minister or both of them, but to do this at last minute notice, yeah, very fucking ordinary.

I’m always skeptical of these, but do them as I find them interesting nonetheless. Will post my results in an attached message. Was interesting but some of the questions were annoying in that they were rather broad, such as should the government pay for all family doctor visits. I agree some folks need help, and definitely kids, but most adults are big boys and girls and should be able to mange the current system.

Should rich people pay more tax? Easy answer is yes, but that’s not the answer I wanted to give. It depends, I think tax breaks are more important to look at, the ways they get OUT of paying the tax they should.

Interested in your thoughts and thought some of my sparring partners in here may be interested in how I align.

“Sorry business” for a five-year-old girl allegedly abducted during a house party at an Alice Springs town camp then murdered should not stop debate over the appalling conditions in those camps, the national commissioner for Indigenous children has declared.

Sue-Anne Hunter, who from July will have unprecedented powers to question bureaucracies and assess failed policies and programs affecting Indigenous children, has challenged claims that questions over the tragedy must wait, saying it was time for action.

Indigenous Australians Minister Malarndirri McCarthy on Friday said “now is not the time” to discuss town camps and related issues, but Ms Hunter says “sorry business does not silence the questions this loss demands we ask. It sharpens them”.

Ms Hunter, a Wurundjeri and Ngurai Illum Wurrung woman, acknowledges sorry business under way for the little girl known in death as Kumanjayi Little Baby at the request of her mother. Ms Hunter says the girl was loved and precious, and had a future that was hers by right.

“She must remain at the centre of this,” Ms Hunter writes in The Australian on Monday.

As police and prosecutors continue to prepare the case against Little Baby’s accused killer, 47-year-old Jefferson Lewis, Ms Hunter has called on the the nation to make change that puts the rights of children first.”

This commissioner is 100% on the money. From what I’ve seen, the child was in a totally inappropriate setting, and for the parents to not notice their child was missing for 2 hrs, well, that’s not a parent. In all my time as the father of a young child, either myself or the missus were always sober at parties when our son was there. One of us was always his little secret service detachment hovering around him to make sure he was okay.

We would have people tell us ‘Relax, there’s a lot of us, we can all keep an eye on him.’

No. As his father, I was the one responsible for his safety. Pretty much every time, I let the missus have a few drinks as I knew it was a time for her to relax as yes, mothers do get the most demand from small children.

The parents of this child need to be questioned and charged for child endangerment. The photos of that camp, and the reports of the conditions of the house she was abducted from are fucking appalling.

Any of you commenting from the luxury of big cities where you have absolutely no idea what it’s like in these remote camps, need to shut the fuck up.

Actual spear fights still occur: https://youtu.be/3n8uX-6dzoY?si=3PBfkbtg6z8KLNYH

These poor bastards, locked into living in these communities, with no employment prospects, humbugging being rampant, alcohol abuse, government money dependency and royalties if they are lucky to have a mine on their lands, yeah. Also, pay attention to the people in these videos. And then compare them to the loudest activists you see on media. Most of them wouldn’t know a single thing about what these folks deal with daily.

When Bob Katter speaks more sense than these big city activists about what these people need, it should tell you everything.

So, the dust has settled a bit, but there is still a lot of misinformation about the police response to the shooting.

This video is one of the best neutral breakdowns of the events and the timeline.

The channel has a lot of other videos (Australian creator) on similar violence related incidents, including the death in custody of Kumanjayi White and my personal favourite, the break down of the 2 idiot eshays who picked an MMA fighter in Brisbane.

An excellent video, calling out Laura Jade (Sky News), the shadow treasurer, the current government and most importantly, the gas lobby attacking Punters Politics. He specifically goes into the tacky videos they made trying to debunk what was claimed.

Please keep this on the topic of this one man, pretty sure most of you will have never heard of him either. Some rich fucker needs to either just give him the money and tell him to keep it and donate the medal to the war memorial after his passing, or something.
