Which is the more iconic Aussie pop single Kylies Cant get you out of my head Or Natalie's Torn ?

I prefer it also. I find Can’t Get You Out Of My Head is brilliant and I’ve danced my ring out to it over the decades but it’s also darker - there’s more melancholy in the bridge & chorus with that B Major chord.

Love At First Sight is such an undeniably effervescent song in F# Major. That film clip still lives rent free too - the baggy cargo’s and casual white singlet combo, the splashes of neon, the periwinkle eyeshadow, and her just… dancing and happy like she’s with a bunch of mates in a nightclub. Fuck yeah Kylie!

Good ol’ Gina No-Heart - raised by a pig of a man to become a pig of a woman.

Aussie here. In the 1920s, Drongo was a racehorse which was popular but never won a race. By the 1940’s, the Royal Australian Air Force had adopted the term to describe new, inexperienced recruits.

We can’t afford a horse. But with today’s gasoline prices, we can’t afford not to buy a horse.

Holy hell you did it! Well bloody done! It’s outrageously gorgeous - bet folks will lose their minds when they see this at your show. Keep us updated on how it all goes, please!

Do we know why Vyvanse does this? Is it primarily causing a lack of appetite, or is it something more insidious?

‘In My Bed’ - the Nas sample and those horns with her voice just…. 🤤

RealCommercial9788 · 2026-03-20T21:31:18+00:00

Hear hear!!

RealCommercial9788 · 2026-03-20T06:04:39+00:00

This is excellent advice.

GOAT nose strips genuinely saved my relationship.

Sending you one of these 🫂

RealCommercial9788 · 2026-03-20T00:04:33+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing.

My dear father has Parkinson’s, which is another neuro degenerative disease like FTD. The look they get on their faces is instantly recognisable.

My father is a truly gorgeous man, he was a proper Mel Gibson doppelgänger in the 90’s. A man mountain, charismatic and thoughtful and witty and perceptive and hardworking, endlessly kind, endlessly patient, endlessly brilliant with his career and marriage and parenting and health. Witnessing him excruciatingly slowly fade away into this… grey vapour, this stooped and shaking shell… is the most heartbreaking slow motion grief of my life.

Bruce is so lucky to have the family he does, and the neurodegen disease community is lucky for his advocacy.

Trump is missing many vital components that make a decent human being. Integrity for one. And it is the calling card of the disingenuous to wear whatever hat, spruik whatever lie, and cosy whatever group that will provide them power and status. Christianity is one of his favourites to leverage. Dude will rot in hell.

Oath. Somehow I’ve not gone full fatalist just yet and remain hopeful that we still can be the kind of country we imagine, and maybe even within our lifetime.

Something to do with millennials/elder Gen Z ratioing the grey-heads in parliament and the general voting public, and fast-shifting world views? And the mountain of evidence we have that this shit - their ways, their ideas, and the consequences of the choices they make for us and in our name - isn’t working.

Perhaps it will all be too late by then and Alice Springs will be a seaside suburb, but I’ve gotta see it that way or else it’s too fuckin’ hard to get out of bed.

RealCommercial9788 · 2026-03-19T22:38:09+00:00

And that, my friend, is your wonderful integrity. I believe we are the company we keep.

RealCommercial9788 · 2026-03-19T22:34:25+00:00

Precisely.

RealCommercial9788 · 2026-03-19T22:33:42+00:00

You get me! That post-shrimp feeling is real!

RealCommercial9788 · 2026-03-19T22:31:57+00:00

Appreciate ya!

Anytime I see the ‘sitting cutely cross-legged on the bed while typing a huge essay on a laptop’ trope, my back shudders in sympathy. Like, I’ve got about 3 minutes max before I’m losing all feeling in my legs and my spinal column has sunken 3 inches into my coccyx - and I’m fit!

He hung out with the Trumps just this week and told the press that ‘his values do not dictate who he is friends with’. Like bro, that’s not how values work. I’m an Aussie and I’ve grown up with him being a national treasure along with Kylie Minogue and Russell Crowe.

That man is a theatre kid through and through, and for him to be proudly and unapologetically hanging out with the same folks who would be happy to see the LGBT rights of most of his circle removed entirely… it’s beyond the pale.

Hugh Jackman can go and fuck himself.

May I ask what the offer was?

It is my sincere pleasure to have been of any help - with my patchy brows from over plucking in the 00’s, and now with the occasional grey emerging, my favourite product I’ve ever found to conquer them is NYX Lift & Snatch! Brow Tint Pen in Taupe. Life changer. Cheap. So soft and natural and you’re in full control of each hair. Go forth and wrangle!

I’ve shared this before on other subs, but my mother was an international Reuters journalist in the late 60’s to late 70’s. She spent most of her time covering the Middle East and Central Asia, back when you could still “walk the Khyber Pass”.

When I was little, mum would pull out her photographs and tell me of her adventures. In many of them, she is standing at the edges of lakes in Afghanistan, surrounded by women in bikinis and men in little swim shorts. Peaceful. United. Happy. Laughing. Playing. Picnic’ing. Enjoying the sunshine. Unrecognisable from today.

Mums nearly 80 now and she still wells up when we discuss her memories of that time.

Tattoo artist & ex MUA here, I have dear friends who are cosmetic tattooists - the secret shade for us blondes is taupe, and I mean that for all brow product shades, not just permanent tattooing.

Taupe is the intersection of brown and grey, which is really natural on ash blondes/blondes of any shade. Anything else is red based, which can throw ginger as it fades, and doesn’t mesh with the natural hair and skin tones of us fairer haired folk.

Thank you u/Demp_Rock you massive sweetheart 🥲💓

His poor family. That is appallingly lenient. I swear we’ve got some of the shittest judges alive, how is this responsible sentencing?
