 Pope:  Liberal federal executive intervenes to halt NSW preselections and take over state division (Guardian). "The dramatic move allows Scott Morrison to have a big say in choosing the candidates in key seats as election looms" Teal is the colour the Climate 200 indepdents challenging key Liberals and Nationals is using and which some said key Liberals are appropriating: ‘No one owns a colour’: Sharma denies copying Spender’s teal brochure (SMH). "Wentworth MP Dave Sharma has defended sending out political communications in the same teal colour as his independent rival Allegra Spender without mentioning his membership of the Liberal Party." Rowe:  It's budget day. Cost-of-living package the centrepiece of Josh Frydenberg's fourth budget (ABC). Wilcox:  A little while back Koala listed as endangered after Australian governments fail to halt its decline (Guardian). Spooner:  Lethbridge 1:  It's reported that Australian pensioners will be offered a one-time payment of A$250 in the budget to help with the rising cost of living.

I guess I wasn't expecting this many people to cluck their tongue at Will Smith for  reasons and how it's "destroyed his image" or some poo poo, but I should've seen it coming."Hmm, will people get that this thing is bad? No, just to be sure I should have someone nearby to say 'thing is bad' out loud. Another pulitzer prize worthy cartoon!"

So can we just confirm now that this entire "arc" was mixed up and drawn out of a hat? I mean, she already did door to door campaigning. Doors were slammed in her face, and then Vladimir Snake-Putin blew up her headquarters. There's no way this poo poo isn't being printed out of order, though given how bland and Nothing Happens it is, we're possibly the only ones who have noticed.

Kikas posted:Fentanyl Deaths? Really? It's a racism thing. Biden is keeping the border wide open and letting everyone in, so more Mexican drug cartels are coming into the US, and they're the ones selling all the fentanyl to Americans, which is why deaths have gone up. e: I think there's some stuff about China too so it's like two racist talking points for the price of one.

Drakyn posted:To give him the only credit he is due, Dave Sims, unlike Jordan Peterson, never had himself put into a dubiously effective medical coma in a Russian health facility in an effort to cold-turkey-snooze through the nasty part of quitting a drug addiction after spending years preaching about the importance of personal responsibility and not making excuses and bootstrapping yourself by your pull-ups, then suffered crippling medical issues as a side effect. Also, at the risk of beating a dead horse, Dave Sim could (and presumably still can) actually draw pretty drat well. Even if he's a loving nutcase.

If I do these daily it's one comic, which maybe isn't enough? Le Monde 28/3  From Chappatte, who is Swiss: "'Putin will be tried before the International Court of Justice", "...the one we don't recognize."' 29/3  Dilem, Algerian: "Zelensky gives as good as he gets: 'Ah! The actor is coming through!"' I'm trying see how to do some of Charlie Hebdo's election stuff but I have no idea what they're talking about. As I said I'm very poorly informed about French politics since I still can't vote, and it's dense. Plus the comics are very wordy at times and I'm not the best translator.

Especially if it's text heavy, I feel like having the translations below weakens the impact a lot unfortunately, and my French is nowhere near good enough. Also, I don't really want to know too much about Éric Zemmour beyond what I've heard already.

I may just post them comment free. The caricatures are fun to see at times and there's some dumb visuals. But for a foreigner it's "Nonsense, it's an election year"x100. Let's try this batch of the literal electoral nobodies. It's "easy" to run for President in France and there's a lot of minor party candidates. The most they get is points for trying, year after year after year. Some are on the ballot, some have failed to get on. Final image is not-work-safe in the even the spoiler tags don't catch it. Charlie Hebdo 2022 French Election: Philippe Poutou is a far-left, anti-capitalist candidate. He got 1% (this is more or less what these people get) of the vote last time.  "No, I never had a bank account at the Crédit Agricole of Sablé-sur-Sarthe!' 'Sir, the Rothschild bank.'"  Highlights of a rally. The final blurb on the bottom left bluntly states: "Once more, [he's gotten] just 250 promised signatures before the televised debates and the sneers of the French who have nothing but disgust for the proles who count their pennies." Florian Phillipot Far-right candidate. Was once the FN's (the "mainstream" far-right party) 2nd in command.  "Non Mr Phillipot, you'll not get Alsace and Lorraine!"  "What's next for Phillipot?: 1 euro and I'll un-demonize you." Nathalie Arthaud Far-left Lutte Ouvrière leader.  "Blame the Bosses, Capital..." "It's time for your pills, Mme Arthaud." Jean Lasalle My partner says: "No one really knows what he's about because he mumbles. He's probably on the right."  Hèlene Thouy Animalist (animal rights) party. Didn't manage to get on the ballot.  The left wins European Elections Fabien Roussel some sort of Communist. I figure he's not on the ballot.  The left is beginning to worry: "They'll disappear faster than us." Pierre Adonis supposedly a hedonistic libertine who tried to get on the ballot but failed. I think.

I'm doing my best to take a break from social media, but this storm of people going nuts over this is making me rubberneck a lil.

: Budget edition. The budget was last night, possibly too late for the cartoonists but there were enough leaks to know the gist of it. Everyone has their own analysis and spin but the main theme is the cash splash to save the election. Pope:  Rowe 1:  The budget is the treasurer's day so it's Josh Frydenberg's time to star in cartoons. Wilcox:  Shakespeare:  Warren Brown:  Leak, Son of Leak:  With The Australian I can't help think this is meant to be pro Josh Frydenberg and we're meant to feel scorn towards the foolish voter.
