Admittedly, they help keep New Matilda out jail, so we’re hopelessly biased. But if you’re not following Marque Lawyers’ Twitter account, then you’re missing some of the most sublime burns in the social media stratosphere.

Exhibit A: Here’s what Marque tweeted out earlier this morning… and bear in mind, this is a medium-sized law firm, very widely respected within an industry known for its general stuffiness.

Another one of those days in Sydney where it's a bit hard to see the thoughts and prayers through the smoke. But we know they're out there, and we are quieted.

Marque’s tweets are scathing, frequently hilarious, and everything social media should be, but predominantly isn’t.

Fascinatingly, the Sydney Morning Herald couldn't find a room today for a single paragraph on this horrific story among its pages and pages of horse race spruiking. Why is that @smh? https://t.co/QUZrxbCUtd

London police have banned all Extinction Rebellion protests tomorrow, just to prove that they can be as post-modern as the next guy.

Hilarious. A coalition government launching an official inquiry into why banks make profits. https://t.co/zwaSklOVNf

To be fair, if the choice is between properly funding TAFE or paying Scott Cam a bucketload to make some TV ads saying how good jobs are, well the answer's obvious. Fire up the Cam-cam.

The moral of the Kurds' story is never fail to support the US in a war you had nothing to do with many decades ago. Especially one in which Turkey stayed neutral. Or else.

Today's news in brief: 75 years after they failed to turn up for the D-Day landings in France, the Kurds will now be killed by Turks in Syria as punishment.
