Zohran Mamdani has won the Democratic Party nomination for NYC Mayor while speaking out for Palestinian rights and against Israel's #GazaGenocide. The @thebetootaadvocate.bsky.social nails it. There's a lesson here for our Australian Albanese Labor Govt too. #USPolitics #NewYorkCity #auspol

I keep hearing politician say that the disability benefits system ‘isn’t working’. Isn’t it? That depends on how you define ‘working’. Do you define it as ‘is it helping disabled people’ rather than ‘is it costing the government too much money’ you’ll get quite different answers.

Point well made

#OtD 25 Jun 1942 French press denounced the Zazous: young people who embraced African American swing and jazz music and style and fought against fascists in the streets. More info in our podcast episode on anti-Nazi youth movements: workingclasshistory.com/podcast/72-e...

Fox Takedown site has posters, verbiage, hand outs, advice. Everything you need to get started. We need these going in every market that has a Fox affiliate. They’re all paying money to Murdoch. A Russian backed disinformation operative attacking our democracy. www.foxtakedown.com/fox-affiliates

EOFY treat; might not get me more radio work but this should pay for itself in double entendres in just a few weeks. Maybe days.

Well, that was... weird. Just got a VoIP call on my personal number, from a company claiming to be "digital asset protection and security agency", asking for my deadname, and that it had been found on a server.

Big supporter of Antoinette Lattouf. Today she said she was punished for her political views. I disagree. She was punished for her humanitarian views and that is part of the issue, that basic human decency is being politicised.

This is Shadow and Ollie. Shadow can be seen here attempting to eat his brother. And based on Ollie's reaction, this is not the first time. 13/10 for both

Pedro Pascal defended calling out JK Rowling as a "heinous loser" and said that "bullies make me fucking sick" and that he wants to "protect the people I love." variety.com/2025/tv/news...

Jasmine whimpering, bought me a favourite toy of hers, carrying it around like a puppy. I whimpered back, which lead to her howling, with the toy still in her mouth. Well at least it was quieter.

I'm going to be honest here, I think AI is going to do so much damage to the usable internet that even after it's inevitably crashes out, it's going to take years to disentangle from every space it's polluted, like digital asbestos it's gonna be time consuming effort and likely expensive venture.

simpler times

I fancied trying to make miso soup, alas most of the ingredients aren't availability at Woolies.

All knowing,all seeing🙄

Quite incredible. This is the purpose of humanity - to intervene in a positive way to help all the creatures of the Earth (including each other).

Thanks wikipedia

I discussed the conflict in Iran on ABC radio yesterday. Possibility of a ceasefire is obviously a good sign of de-escalation. But the Aus Gov’t prioritising our relationship with US over international law is deeply worrying. #politas #auspol

My sexuality is like pureed fruit, I've never been sure of it, but straight I'm not. So when a sex bot follows and thinks enormous tits will grab my attention: "Sorry ma'am, wrong demographic."

Of all the many, many balls dropped by the ABC over the last decade or so, it’s the enthusiastic retreat from being a training ground for young and socially diverse talent that has done the most damage.

The issue beyond political speech is the lasting impact on Lattouf’s career

Labor MP Ed Husic celebrated broadcaster Antoinette Lattouf’s win in her unlawful termination case against the ABC. In a post on Instagram, Husic had this to say: “Good. Antoinette was treated terribly. #justice” (via @guardianaustralia) Crickets from you @albomp.bsky.social ? #auspol

Apart from a 20 minute walk this morning between showers, Daisy has decided to have nothing to do with today. Can’t blame her. Thankfully for her I’m WFH #MelbourneWeather

Primo products almost never open, I think "Peel here" must be a joke of theirs.

I just saw a list of 100 of the best electronic albums. No JM Jarre!

THEY F*CKING TOOK THE ICE CREAM MAN! The photo says it all. Masked ICE goons grabbed Enrique Lozano in front of a Culver City, CA church. A Community Coalition helped the family identify the abandoned cart, locate his belongings. For 20 years, loved in the community. "Hardened criminals" - my ass.

For all of my life there has been a charade that the US had global dominance through some form of consent, that their interventions were in defence of democracy. The mask has dropped. As their president stamps his foot and 'allied' leaders fawn, the fear of the bully takes centre stage.

I get this a lot (it's ok), but as they don't deliver, they're not an option.

Vance looks a bit like that English Comedian, the one that honks like a goose when he laughs.

What's the biggest Carter on the Moon?

Here's a memory.

Got a ConEd alert telling me to use less energy during the heat wave and this is all I can think about.
