What the heck

Toe jam❓Fascinating, Justin, fascinating. ABCNews JustinStevens MediaWatch

If the abc has to educate the public about this our species is fucking doomed and quite frankly deserves it

It’s the sort of thing that happens when, for instance one (even if a member) is trying to participate in a public meeting entitled Politics in The Pub at the Forestville RSL Club to listen to such people as Katherine Deves.
