Remember, it starts with immigrants but it will end with you. Palantir: Peter Thiel’s Data-Mining Firm Helps DOGE Build Master Database to Surveil, Track Immigrants www.democracynow.org/2025/6/3/mak...

Breakthrough discovery links organ failure to long COVID. "Red blood cells damaged by long COVID and clogging blood vessels have been found to cause organ failure, providing a hard-fought missing link in cardiac science." #LongCOVID Source: archive.md/TrZ32

Well well well...... The same Peter Thiel behind Palantir and Black Rock. Horrible......

Yglesias is perpetually wrong and it's very obvious he's perpetually wrong, so his perpetual wrongness serves some billionaire's whim. There's a reason his voice is always being elevated, spouting the same brand of unbelievable nonsense.

Our governments fail us while we're facing an #existentialcrisis. #capturedstate #fossilcriminals #auspol #wapol

The press fails us as badly as our governments do. #capturedstate #fossilcriminals #auspol #wapol

FAFO supreme. Miners digging their own... mines.

If your job is a call centre agent for an outsourcing company. I'd be worried, the data you've all been training their AI on is taking your jobs. Same for entry level lawyers. Vote for any of the main parties Lib Dems, Tory, Labour or Reform—vote job losses. Their Parent/Owner CEOs brag about it

Under autocratic rule, media becomes a puppet, dancing to the regime's tune. Truth is scripted, dissent silenced, and propaganda reigns supreme. A free press withers while control tightens. Irony? They call it "protecting the people." #3E

I hate so much that there's a Big Dark Roof sabotaging climate policies, ffs

So, uh... I just did a Google search which was not about homework... because I haven't been in school in decades, and I got this pop up from Google. And, like, I actually think there are ways to use AI in school properly, but this kind of advertising from Google seems... super sketchy.

They are so unbelievably and terribly desperate. You don’t do things like this unless you are scraping the bottom of the barrel for revenue and adoption. This is the ultimate form of the tech industry: a despicable, wretched, entitled, destructive, abusive digital despot that wants to con your kids.

this country is laughably corrupt.

The government bent over backward to hand Thames Water over to KKR. Now they've pulled out and Thames only has cash to operate until the end of the month. Water for 16 million people is now at risk all over a £27,000 donation?

"Land-clearing is increasing...about 45,000 hectares of savanna habitat was destroyed between 2000 and 2020...equivalent to an area roughly the size of 22,500 MCGs." Read about our new report, The State and Future of the Northern Territory’s Savannas 👉 theconversation.com/the-top-ends...

The ALP needs to focus on the "powerless" aspect of the LNP. The LNP literally do not matter. Change the fricken country and leave them withering. Stop feeling like you need to ask the LNP's (or media's) permission to change things.

Politics: #COVID is over, the pandemic is over, go live and celebrate! Science: Calm down, there is much more that COVID can do to the body.... Scientists: This is bad, I think we can use COVID-19 as a prototypical disease model for ischaemia injury. 🙄🙄

"Democrats aren’t taking this disaffected and politically alienated voting bloc seriously enough." < goose meme > politically alienated from who? < goose meme > POLITICALLY ALIENATED FROM WHO, MOTHERFUCKER

It's got horse electrolytes to help them grow. It's what Republicans crave!

NEW: There's no sugarcoating it. The Liberals' proposed Strong Borders Act represents a total betrayal of voters who elected Carney to stand up to Trump. www.readtheorchard.org/p/carney-ben...

Now we see all the principles they lack

He can go fuck himself, actually.

The reality is just this. If the democrats continue this path of bigotry and hate they will never hold power again and they will be responsible again for any losses that occur. The Democrats are responsible for what happens next If they continue this course of hate they can never hold power again

That’s why I only breath in made in Canada wildfire smoke. More pipelines!

There's a massive problem for Queensland and for the greater Australian approach to climate change; it's the Qld LNP. They don't accept CC. They see it as a belief system. They don't care about reduction in global temperatures. #qldpol theconversation.com/the-queensla...

If @MarshaBlackburn is pushing a law to make it illegal to name ICE agents… doesn’t that mean it isn’t currently illegal? So what are she and @AndyOgles investigating Mayor O’Connell for exactly? 🤷🏻‍♂️ (Also: if ICE agents are this ashamed, maybe stop?) nypost.com/2025/06/04/u...

it’s time to replace all doctors with ai

Making him part of the conspiracy to wage a coup, give away DEMOCRACY to plutocrats.

Abundance = Deregulation At least the way it is instantiated by Klein and Thompson. The rebranding doesn’t make it better.

In some exciting news, @crikey.com.au have cross-published my investigation with @drilledmedia.bsky.social using new National Archives docs to look at how budget cuts, a private sector fetish and bureaucratic turf wars created the economic modelling that fuelled climate-denial in the 90s. Thread:

Imagine the schools, hospitals and aged care we could provide The homes The security and peace of mind The investment we could make in new sustainable industries

Not trying to direct hate at someone but just saw this and one of these things is not like the other.. This is so far out of left field but to be clear BLUE MAGAns ARE THE FUCKING RANK-AND-FILE-Ds who tolerate zero criticism of the party JFC where tf are people coming up with this shit ‽

This aggressive colonialism is what Carney is driving across the country. And soon your ability to object will be curtailed via the surveillance state Carney is building. I apologize for posting so much about this motherfucker, but things are about to get a lot worse very soon.

It’s pretty wild how J Trudeau was elected on a promise of being the opposite of what Carney is now doing, things Harper was then doing. Obviously, there’s disparity between what Trudeau promised & what he was, but the difference between the 2015 Trudeau promise and the 2025 Carney reality is dark.

There’s probably not an open bar. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

They invoke NYT to try and garner support from MAGA, but the truth is that people across the ideological spectrum from far right to far left think this is BS.

Lyft driver picked me up from UNC, turned out he was a medicinal chemistry post-doc in a building near mine, until his grant got cut last month. Worked on novel antivirals.

Australians, and everyone else who lives in a civilised country with universal healthcare, please read this as a reminder to fight to keep things that way and not take anything for granted

"The America we thought we knew is not coming back...the second Trump administration is an entirely different beast." "This idea that we can just wait him out, relying on old assumptions about the political cycle is something we have to be really careful with." @emmashortis.bsky.social #auspol

“The mix of flag-waving, authoritarianism, subservience to US imperialism, and feeble economic measures make the similarity between Starmer’s Labour and Albanese’s ALP programmatically uncanny.” tribunemag.co.uk/2025/06/star...

The government promised to make gas giants pay their share. Instead, we're missing out on billions in tax income. We have to stop giving our futures away for free, and damaging our country and climate in the process.
