https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/picture/2025/jun/02/bad-news-the-communist-albanese-government-is-introducing-a-new-superannuation-tax-on-the-rich

Picture 1 - At home with the Foreclaws. Bechamel and Tweed discuss a disturbing development with regard to the proposed superannuation tax (austral. betriebliche Altersvorsorge) changes.

Picture 2 - Tweed: "Bad news Bechamel. The communist Albanese government is introducing a new superannuation tax- and it's folk on struggle street (das Sprachbild spielt mit dem Bezug zu "Struggle Street", eine Armutsbetroffene abwertende austral. Serie) like us who will/ be paying! Paying for Albo's hubris!" Bechamel: "Oh no! Will we be able to keep all of our houses Tweed? Can we still take five overseas holidays a year? Whither the lucky country!?! (Yes I know, I know)"

Picture 3 - Tweed: "Apparently if you're one of the 80,000 hard working Aussie battlers with more than $3 million in superannuation - the tax on super earnings is going up 15%." Bechamel: "Only $3 million in superannuation?! How is anyone expected to live on less than that?? This is monstrous!"

Picture 4 - Tweed: "Why is everyone always complaining how wealthy people don't pay enough tax? It's discrimination, it's the politics of envy! Why do people hate the innocent rich? I'm too busy and important to be slightly inconvenienced by this but the leftist media doesn't seem to care about my feelings."

Picture 5 - Tweed: "It is a hateful attack on the people who have given their all for this country, selfless investors, gritty entrepreneurs, courageous nepobabies waiting patiently for mother and father to leave them mines and investment firms." Bechamel: "They don't warn you that being in a network of wealthy people you went to private school with is like a full time job!"

Picture 6 - Tweed: "No doubt a squad of jackbooted thugs from the tax office will descend upon us with tweezers and microscopes to rip the very heart out of this family's finances - family's maybe as much as $3000 dollars a year or more! The accountants will tell me after we get back from Paris." Bechamel: "oh my god! how much will we have left?" Tweed: "Literal millions. But it's the principle! Sadly this is just the beginning."

Picture 7 - Tweed: "It started with those dreadful communal tables at coffee shops and then it was bicycle lanes and now it's socialism akimbo! Soon we'll all be carted off to gulags." Bechamel: "First they came for the people with more than $3 million in superannuation and I said nothing... ."

#firstdogonthemoon once again summing up how I feel about the human project.
Yesterday I was busy and happy doing tree work. Today I am tired & morose. Hurumph!

Section of a First dog on the moon cartoon with text that says "Because like everything else beautiful on this Earth some dickhead wants to chop this forest down, dig it up or drown it under lakes of toxic mining waste"

What? I can’t believe it. Some arseholes want to log what? Tarkine? No… no way… What a bastardly thing to even contemplate, let alone have a go at. We need to get rid of these soulless logging companies, absolute Kenghis Khans of the environnent. Fuck them all.

First Dog on the Moon cartoon plate - long dialogue about discovering the beauty of old growth forests and the vital work anti-loggers are doing for all of us.

Young people! What are they doing?
It’s none of your business
(but they're not doing great)

Who would be a young person? Not me!
When a bunch of people under 40 were asked
what 🙀 about stuff
these were some of the things making them miserable
The cost of living
Renting is a lottery - I will never own a house
Climate change - it's bad!
wealth gap = so very very gappy
Saving is impossible - Will | have
to live in my car when | am old?
Wars! Human rights! help help!
Hey! There are fascists everywhere now

While we all worry about these things,
luckily Gen x's and Boomers the
sweet release of death will come sooner
than later. Whew!

Younger generations will have to spend the next 70 years watching
the political duopoly scratching their
undies while the world ends... OR WILL THEY?
Young PeopLE Today
When they say social cohesion
is important what they
really mean is stfu

Young people are going to have to live with
this global betrayal Tor a very long time.

So what do younger folk think they have to look forward to ?
Not much.
All the old racists and €ossil fuelists will die at some point
In 50 years they will get their turn to complain about the less elderly.

Young people these days are SO ungrateful
- back In the 20's when | was your age | would have loved fo live in a communist climate bunker beneath the ocean!

#FirstDogOnTheMoon asks a question at the end of the latest cartoon.

"Is this what it feels like to be complicit in a genocide?"

#Genocide #Gaza

Who is he asking?

The reader.

Why might the reader know?

Asteroids are headed this way – oh no! Are we all doomed?

#asteroids #art #cartoons #illustration
#firstdogonthemoon

Huge angry asteroids! Outer space
is stuffed full of them and they're all
headed this way - oh no! Are we all
doomed? Yes! But at least it will be funny

Asteroid scientists are flipping their wigs
over the latest asteroids they happened to find earlier.

JUST TELL US IF THEY ARE GOING TO CRASH INTO US!

Outside USAID Building
Two Minions with explosives ask:
“Elon there were no Deep State Subversives in there … just Nic people sending food and medicine to hungry sick folks.”

Elon Musk in black leather coat and cap with T for Trump on replies:
“Blow it all up anyway.”

"You'd rather give your data to China than to our genocide-adjacent social media apps? What is wrong with you?"

"Will DeepSeek save us from the smug tech bro-ligarchy? No only a mass global insurrection against the dictatorship of capital will do that."

The always wonderful First Dog on the Moon considers DeepSeek and the affect it's having on the evil US techbros.

Caution: may contain schadenfreude.
