This constitutes “a likely war crime” that violates international standards on aid distribution, according to the United Nations. interc.pt/44BkDtL

One of the SpaceX fan cams caught a crane collapse at Starbase in Texas. This kind of thing only happens from a completely unacceptable safety culture failure and I'd be shocked if there wasn't a death here

this makes me incredibly sad. Tuvalu is likely to disappear under the sea in 80 years because countries like Australia are pushing them under. if someone destroyed MY home, i would not be satisfied by an invitation to apply to live in their backyard! www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06...

I just very dearly do not want the news that 20-50 people have been massacred in Gaza for daring to look for food to become as mundane to us as the daily weather forecast.

I don't think we talk enough about how dignity is also a human right. Food, water, shelter, education, health care, representation...all of those are human rights that everyone should receive regardless of who they are. But it's also a right to not have to beg for them.

UPDATE Nearly one-third of citizens in Tuvalu are seeking a landmark climate visa to live in Australia as rising seas threaten their palm-fringed shores u.afp.com/Sxnf

Don’t know who else to contact.

Increasing numbers of children with malnutrition dying, children dying of thirst, babies dying of starvation because there is no formula 'Never again' doesn't mean anything does it @australianlabor.bsky.social ? #auspol

talked to Maha and she said Hamoud is playing around in the tent they share and eating a lot of sand, bc he thinks it's a toy and also probably because he's hungry. this tiny baby is eating sand. if you can do anything to help Maha, please do. she's just a kid herself. gofund.me/7aca0606

Gaza is dying silently 😔 not just from bombs, but from being forgotten. Homes in ashes, families shattered, and the world keeps scrolling. We are human. We deserve to live. Don’t let our pain fade into silence 💔 Please, stand with us tinyurl.com/osamalife

Seven out of ten renters are scared to ask their landlords about repairs due to fear of retaliation www.sbs.com.au/news/video/r...

The obscenity of hearing again and again the weight of these bombs. Their dimensions. Their nicknames. Compliant media broadcasting the press kits of weapons manufacturers.

Apart from anything else I’d love to know in what way Albo and Wong’s almost-immediate endorsement of a neo-fascist American president’s illegal bombing campaign is an example of their government acting “soberly, cautiously, and in the national interest”.

LOL what the fuck? I am fascinated by the low effort AI image. Many questions are being raised.

Playing Scrabble and just got the most frustrating collection of letters I’ve ever had in this game

Amazing! - deepsea bacteria take up methane, oxidize carbon - sea spiders FARM the bacteria on THEIR OWN BODY (like yeti crabs) - the sea spiders eat the bacteria as part of the chemosynthetic food chain - methane from the seeps doesn't get into the atmosphere 🧪🦑 www.pnas.org/doi/full/10....

When I decide to leave an animal alone after observing it for a while I always wave goodbye and say thankyou. Usually I blow it a little kiss too. I’m 100% serious, this isn’t a bit!

pissweak chickenshit backwater bootlickers

The idea that self-censoring is a new form of oppression forced on white men rather than a normal part of having a prefrontal cortex and existing in society is some of the biggest bullshit in the centrist/right wing coalition gender grift

Not a single crate has been allowed through, despite the urgent warnings from the world’s humanitarian organisations and the screams of Palestinians. There is nothing normal about the silence in response

Oh 👀 artwork fit for the Woodside board room! Or perhaps @monashuniversity.bsky.social's Woodside building❓ Unless of course Monash end their unfortunate integrity-compromising partnership with the climate criminals, Woodside in 2025 as demanded by their community @stopwoodsidemonash.bsky.social
