It's on! 100 days to go. Big games in Perth. Time to brush off my FIFA Volunteer application www.footballwest.com.au/news/perth-h...

Yep, figured that something was going on - www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SQ2...

Sheargold didn’t rant against trans folk so LZ wasn’t interested.

The widespread adoption of this definition is, I fear, a sign of things to come: kowtowing to the culture war era www.jewishcouncil.com.au/media/jewish...

Here's @instanterudite.bsky.social. 'Dutton’s dangerous dance: decrying one form of racism while stoking all the others'

Australians, you'll be voting the national/Federal elections in a couple of months. Make sure you vote for the not-shit candidate in your electorate/state.

Usman Khawaja has asked "where is the justice?" after two Muslim women were attacked at a Melbourne shopping centre, in what's being treated as "prejudice-motivated" "Rather than have an exclusive anti-Semitic summit, how about we stop picking sides and include Islamophobia"

Morning. ☕️

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

If two bitter, self-serving political grifters like Clive Palmer & Pauline Hanson can't make a political marriage of convenience work, making money while delivering absolutely nothing for voters, what hope is there for the nation? 😏 #auspol #AusVotes2025

Saying it could either be a sign that the car’s brake pads need replacing or that Elon Musk has announced a new offspring, a Tesla driver has been left confused after the message ERROR_XF-A.BR3! appeared on the car’s touchscreen without warning. Read the full story --> tinyurl.com/ktdrut2y

Just reiterating - the Left <> Right political spectrum is of course rubbish - interesting outtro - re Grnd News too, so watch to the end - Hello, www.youtube.com/@TheMarketExit

Now that Gina Rinehart has the Liberal Party Leader Peter Dutton in her pocket, I suspect she has no further use for fall-down-drunk Barnaby Joyce. #Nationals #auspol #AusVotes2025

If the US is willing to ignore Europe in its dealings with Russia and Ukraine, who seriously thinks they will care what Australia says about China, Taiwan or anything to do with our region? The US doesn’t want allies or partners, it wants servants. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

Captured state yet? #auspol "Australia is the only Western democracy to vote lockstep with the US in blocking every UN resolution and ICC investigation meant to investigate, condemn or sanction Israel’s violations of human rights and international law in the Palestinian territories?"

AUS mainstream news media: If a lesbian couple feel unsafe bc of the actions of a male cabbie or a white policeman ignoring their complaint, the reporting will focus on criticising the words of the non-white member of the couple, rather than on the fact the women felt unsafe. #sexism #racism 😔

BREAKING: We are suing DOGE and the Office of Personnel Management to stop the brazen and illegal data sharing of federal employee data with the “government efficiency” group.

My heart ached when I was reminded that Aaron Swartz was prosecuted for trying to make academic knowledge more accessible to the public. Meta, meanwhile, is doing it for their own bottom line. I'm going to guess that no one at Meta will be looking at spending 35 years in jail for this.
