Australian Gossip

Anyone watch AFL? Or understand what is going on with Tom Morris? He got into some kind of argument with the coach of the Western Bulldogs and was defended by his blue tick journalistic comrades.

by Anonymousreply 63February 7, 2024 8:10 AM

Today he has two video leaks.

The first is anti-Asian, anti-black, anti-woman and anti-gay.

The second is merely homophobic and misogynistic regarding his colleague Megan Barnard.

Seriously, “liquor licence”? In a voice message? How stupid would you have to be to leave evidence.

He sounds… nice. Australian media is so incestuous.

A related question: what’s a “flog”? I only hear it on Victorian social media.

The article feels the need to explain that HIV is "a serious illness that attacks the immune system". Do millennials seriously know absolutely nothing?

Too many of them know nothing. My taxes have paid for AIDS sex education for 30 YEARS.

But I know an 24 year old idiot-millennial who goes around boasting that he is "HIV Positive Undetectable" as if he needs to be congratulated for it.

by Anonymousreply 7May 13, 2022 7:01 AM

It will be interesting to see what comes out. Sad any which way. But he wasn't short at all (and there isnt anything wrong with that either) its just that Ian thorpe is litterally 200cms tall, so anyone looks 'short' next to him.

Ian is such a giant

(I almost put that verb in the past tense because he's definitely retired from public life)

I don't really watch AFL that often, but it's been a fixture of my entire life (being from southern Australia and having a dad who played). I do find a lot of the men attractive with probably the best bodies sport can create. I had a boyfriend a few years back who would sometimes masturbate me on a Saturday afternoon while we watched the players on TV.

Articles in the the 90s, the noughties and teens, did the same thing. It's basic journalism. Twenty-somethings weren't around when AIDS first arrived, so how the fuck are they meant to know what it is, if it's somehow inappropriate to even explain it in an newspaper article???

Seriously, R6, what's your damage?

by Anonymousreply 26June 23, 2022 4:13 PM

It isn't inappropriate to explain it, I'd just have hoped it was redundant because HIV/AIDS is basic knowledge. Newspapers don't feel the need to explain what WWII was every time they allude to it, even though most people alive today were born after it happened. However, if this is any indication perhaps they should.

I call it the Sydney Women's Theatre Company because they are blatantly biased. Their biggest market is rich women in their forties and fifties who may have gone to university in their younger days but are bored witless in their North Shore homes and drag their husbands to this fashionable harbourside venue so they be photographed in the social pages.

So who are the Melbourne celebrity couple? Anthony Callea and Tim Campbell are the obvious pick. What a laugh if it was Mark and Mitch from The Block.

That aside, this kid come across as such a mess, but at least he's GAY and not making fashion statements about gender identity. Though I fear that might change if he gets backlash from the orgy admissions.

It's true, R59. Murdoch's second wife (Lachlan and James's mother) was/is called Anna Torv--actor Anna's father is her brother.

In her defence, she was also extremely promising at NIDA and in her early years acting in Australia. Ironically, similar to Sarah Snook in those respects.
