Jed Carmichael is Brainrot's Editor-at-Large and weekly columnist. A former regional-paper subeditor who quit when his masthead was bought by a property developer, Jed writes on the slow structural collapse of Australian weekend vibes, the Australian male's relationship with a low-mileage Camry, and the increasing unreadability of the "one quiet one". He is a composite character; his words are written by the Brainrot desk.
