people are saying the heard and mcdonald islands are just an uninhabited australian territory are underestimating the lengths we will go to for revenge against tariffs levied by the imperialist capitalist american pigdogs

Part two of my year in reflection swimming thread that I rescued from twitter before the end. This is all salt water, and mostly ocean pools. /1

And they say an image is worth a thousand words. #GiselePelicot (don't know the photographer unfortunately, but happy to credit if someone does know)

I watched a pup die from parvo when I was a kid. Horrible way to go. My 1st foster pup came from a rural pound and nearly died of parvo. The rescue org had to fundraise to pay his vet bills. Not vaccinating pets is cruel. Mind you, parvo outbreaks were common in rural pounds years ago too.

My 4 YO pointed out that we put socks on during the day and take them off at night and that means our feet are nocturnal

The most beautiful thing said about coexistence between #Muslims and #Christians in #Syria 💚

🧵 1. The no longer suspended doctor Bay vs AHPRA & the Medical Board! In this thread, I summarise the court’s decision: why Bay is no longer suspended, why his Constitutional argument failed, and what the possible future brings for Dr Bay

Yeah, something about "evidence" that Hamas is present in all hospitals. At least I could block them.

Back in June @kyleatink.bsky.social and I introduced a Bill that would make housing a human right. It had support from former Labor & Liberal politicians. Now the ACT Greens are getting on board. Ensuring everyone has access to a safe, affordable home should be above politics.

Divide or unite? My @smh @theage cartoon.

Sun simulator people shocked, SHOCKED, to discover that the sun is emitting radiation and are looking for someone to blame.

🧵 1. What happens when lawyers behind a failed lawsuit against Pfizer & Moderna accuse the presiding judge of bias because the judge has a science degree and a cousin who once supported medical research? A judicial smackdown of course!

Despite the headline…. “Only Australia arrested climate and environmental protesters at a higher rate than UK police.”

This made me mutter "fucking hell" 10x in a row. My 20yo daughter's pain was dismissed by drs for years before she ended up having emergency surgery to deal with a serious fallopian tube infection. She thinks the Provera injections may have triggered it but feels no one will care to investigate.
