Unf*cking Down Under.

And the Long Arm of the Chicago School.

The time has come to honor our Down Under F*ckers who have been supporting UNFTR since we launched.

There’s an election coming up and several hot button issues facing the Australian people so it’s a good time to level set on what’s up down under. Note to our beloved Down Under F*ckers: This will be hilariously rudimentary to you but hopefully amusing enough to keep your attention. Now, piss off.
