On the Armidale Road

19 April 2025 Dr James Moylan 4

Worrying about everything, all the time, for fun and profit

29 March 2025 Dr James Moylan 6
For a satirist, Trump is a diamond encrusted 100% solid gold shitter. He is an overblown cartoon caricature of a populist leader. The sort of clownish character that might have been dreamt up in a […]

Random signals from planet Trump

25 March 2025 Dr James Moylan 9

21 March 2025 Dr James Moylan 10
Once upon a time our unis were full of middle class poseurs wearing Che Guevara tee-shirts who were all airily declaring that ‘everything is political, man.’ Much has changed, today our unis are full of […]

Postcards from the uncivil war

19 March 2025 Dr James Moylan 3
You may have thought that the idea of kidnapping people off the street, flinging them into a dungeon, then ‘disappearing’ them, was entirely old hat. So, arguing about this sort of thing probably declined sometime […]

Where is the gonzo?

17 March 2025 Dr James Moylan 12
The modern world sucks. You suck. Every one of my audience members is to blame. So fuck you all. Everybody is a f*n journalist and nobody can write for shit. Consequently, we have all become […]

I can’t complain: I am not a property owner, or a landlord

12 March 2025 Dr James Moylan 3

You are strongly advised to STOCK UP ON TRUMP MERCH NOW!

25 February 2025 Dr James Moylan 7

The art of living in interesting times

22 February 2025 Dr James Moylan 1
Sometimes I can’t keep up. The treadmill feels like it is moving too fast. At heart I am a bleeding-heart namby-pamby liberal pussy. Consequently, I find it virtually impossible to not overly worry about matters […]

19 February 2025 Dr James Moylan 9
I like to rummage about in the back drawers of our culture, dig out a bunch of glittery gee-gaws and trinkets, and then play with them in public. I have been called a ‘Cultural Commentator’ […]
