August, 2017: Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, Barnaby Joyce, is forced to resign from parliament after it is revealed he is a citizen of New Zealand.

New Zealand makes light of the situation by nominating him for New Zealander of the Year

Barnaby would regain his job after renouncing his NZ citizenship and running for re-election, only to lose the Deputy PM job again shortly after when it was revealed he had gotten his media advisor pregnant.

Your forgot the part where his now ex-wife Natalie Joyce’s response to the situation was to immediately divorce him and become a competitive body builder.

Hello brand (derogatory),

I humbly request that you add alt text to images so those who can't read images get to enjoy the horrible headlines you post. I believe in equality for all and think that if I have to put up with a brand ruining/ enhancing my Tumblr experience, everyone else should too.

Alright the Destiel image now has alt text, but may it be on your head

Jesus fucking Christ how did they make it even worse

screenshot of an image description overlaid on a Destiel meme. it reads: The image of the pivotal moment in television serial Supernatural where Castiel finally, after all this time, admits his love for Dean Winchester. Tears run down Castiel's cheeks as he bears his heart for Dean, with a longing that has pent up for years painted clearly on his face. As we scroll down we are met with the cold, unmoved stare of Dean, almost as if the feelings were not reciprocated. Could it be that Castiel's heart will be broken? Will this all end in heartbreak? But wait, what is this as you scroll further? Why Dean is clutching what appears to be, yes, it is a pregnant belly, he is clearly filled with child. What joy our hearts are filled with as we see Dean's reply to the proclamation of love. "I know" he replies simply, as the blessing of new life that swells within his tender chest says more than a thousand words ever could.ALT

How dare you call an Australian national Treasure “brand (derogatory)”.

This is the same lot of comedians that got arrested for successfully passing through the security lines of the APEC summit (where George W Bush was in attendance) by driving a car with a simple Canadian flag on it, with IDs that clearly said FAKE, while one of them was dressed as Osama Bin Laden.

1975: There is mass panic in Adelaide after a house painter / part time psychic claimed God was about to send a tsunami to wipe out the city, should a plan to legalise homosexuality become law, with news reports reaching as far as London.

In response to the media frenzy, and to reassure the public, Premier Don Dunstan announced that he will be travelling to the beach to fight the sea, where he was met by hundreds of locals who had used the apocalypse as an excuse to take the day off work.

February, 1994: The New Zealand government’s official Wizard is invited by the Mayor of Tamworth, Australia to perform a rain dance (approved by the local Aboriginal Commission) in an attempt to break the region’s ongoing drought.

The Wizard travels to Australia on a special passport provided by the British High Commission stamped “The Wizard of New Zealand”, over concerns that his claim he is ‘not subject to mortal laws’ may cause issues at immigration.

Three days after his dance, the town was inundated with rain, with the wizard reporting that the subsequent flooding “produced many letters of complaint”.


Following his success, the Wizard announced he would be staking claim to the title of “Wizard of Oz”.

This was filmed at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, which rescues, rehabilitates, and releases orphaned elephants in Kenya (among other conservation efforts). Charity Navigator has given it a 4/4 star rating, and you can make donations here or “adopt” a baby elephant here.

THANK YOU FOR THIS IMPORTANT ADDITION.

I have enjoyed this video so much and am very happy to share ways to help the babies!!

That man held it in until he knew for a fact that they’d need another take anyway, and not a moment less.

I’m staying in rural Japan at the moment, and I will never not be amused by that drunken Japanese dude enthusiastically shouting “HEYYYYY, WHAT’S??? UP?!!!” at me in fantastically bad English from a bar terrace.
