The week in review:

See here’s the problem - either old or new, awning windows with 125mm restrictors simply provide almost no actual ventilation in habitable rooms (fine in bathrooms). Our National Construction Code is so poor - needs a total rethink

WTF happened?

I receive a few scam emails - but the last few days I have noticed an uptick in the frequency of emails. Two of the below emails are alarmingly real. I have a decent amount of paranoia - but increasing sophistication is convincing Never click on a link. Go to the source. If in doubt, get advice

Peter Dutton has launched a game of one-upmanship after Albanese at the weekend unveiled Labor’s $8.5 billion health policy that promises near universal bulk billing

Why are people drawn to RFK's false promises? Why do they have so little trust in medical institutions and why are they willing, even eager, to see them dismantled? We've enforced desperation on millions of now very manipulable people––and we're all now paying for it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CxG...

In a world laden with moral complexities, the words of Sophie Scholl resonate profoundly: “The real damage is done by those millions who want to ‘get by.’” Her courage reminds us that active citizenship is our duty. Let us not be complacent. 🌍✊ SophieScholl blakandblack.com/2024/10/05/t...

💥The Netherlands' largest pension fund, has sold its shares in Tesla, Meta, and Alphabet (Google). The fund with US $569 billion equivolent in assets is "directing more money to companies and projects that help to improve society and the environment." #Divest www.reuters.com/markets/euro...

"we don’t want our health system to be more American" says Albo. If only he had the same view of our - defence system - foreign policy - respect for human rights and international law - Murdoch-dominated media - growing inequality and poverty... #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Dutton ALWAYS disappears when the going gets tough for HIM He disappeared after the interest rate cut was announced. He did the same after when Libs lost Dunkley & when Labor unveiled stage 3 tax cuts. He avoids commentary not favourable to HIM He is a coward www.crikey.com.au/2025/02/20/p...

The same MAGA scumbags who chant their America First bullshit are currently cheering on a corrupt billionaire Nazi fascist South African sociopath immigrant who is destroying the United States, stealing US Intel and telling the US military to go fuck themselves.

She’s definitely perfected the Fox Host Look for her debut show. Roger Ailes central casting.

This. 👇🏻👇🏻

Way to go, Sheryl!!

What happens if Dutton loses his seat but the LNP win the election overall? Can someone tell me, please? Does he still get to be PM? #auspol

Ooh, I know: the Black guy and the woman. Not qwhite sure why, though.

Trumpet of Patriots? aka Dogwhistle of Bigots. Honor Omnia? Honour Above All? aka Lies to Promote Palmer's interests. 😠 #auspol #AusVotes2025

Watch Marles tie him self in knots. What did he admit …. China acted in accordance with international law. China gave broadcast notice. He can’t even confirm if the Chinese completed the first test. He is so woeful. #auspol

This. Is. Insane.

Kristi Noem is a special breed of asshole.

Clubs and bars are out. Let's open a late night Bookstore where you can silently mingle, drink tea, and read into all hours of the night.

Trump is not a king He is not a leader He is not a success He is not a visionary He is not a saviour He is not a genius He is not a truth teller He is not a CEO He is not a patriot He is not a solution He is not a unifier He is not a role model He is not a real president He is not even a man

Another #auspol idea. Tricky though when many in regional areas rely on Starlink for connectivity. Maybe time for Telstra or someone else to step up? #JustSaying. 🙃🤞🦋

Well, we all know what Peter Dutton is, don't we? I'm pretty sure he doesn't even consider some groups of people as human. #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2024-08...

I’m watching Watership Down (1978) for the first time and realizing we just don’t scare kids with art like we used to.

This is for @gtconway.bsky.social Five things I did last week. 1. Took too much ketamine 2. Danced onstage with a chainsaw 3. Ignored my new baby momma 4. Laughed at my own jokes. 5. Neglected all of my children except for the one I use as a human shield.

If Liberace vomited up a bad acid trip, this is what it'd look like.

Solidarity on Socialist Sunday

I’m not surprised but also you should know better than to mess with Dolly.

Sending an email to employees asking them to list five things they did that week is a classic move from a manager who has no idea how to manage

Who is responsible for this? 🤣

Trump in a nutshell.

We were robbed.

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result is demagoguery and corruption.

Early morning pelican action. I love how their wingtips sometimes gently kiss the surface of the water. Such beautiful creatures. Bald Hill Beach, South Australia.

Kristi Noem’s week: • Sent 400 ICE agents to Colorado and made ONE arrest. • Got the Acting Director fired. • Played dress-up cosplay. • Cheated with Corey Lewandowski. • Wacked more puppies and goats.

“More than 10,000 First Nations people killed in Australia’s frontier wars, final massacre map shows”

Eagles decline another invitation to the White House…Love this Ownership, Organization AND THIS TEAM LETS GO BIRDS

So Dutton reckons he’ll match Labor’s spending on Medicare. So I sent him this🤣🤣🤣Ian

Cute little one-room wide tower, Tokyo

Angus Taylor releases the LNP Health Policy, it’s the ALP’s policy. I don’t give a fuck what this idiot says. But I do give a fuck about the $80 million purchase of water rights he approved to EAA, a company linked to his past business interests. How is this guy still in parliament #auspol #NACC
