Moved here from other places. If you’re interested in a slightly biased but zero grift humanities based perspective of AI in education with just the right amount of optimism and a good dash of scepticism I’d like to connect with you here. #edusky

Fantastic! If misinformation laws aren’t necessary, I’ll look forward to seeing lots of great stories about Dutton, like the one about him losing his virginity to his first cousin.

Best of 2024: A rakali (native water rat) on the banks of the Torrens in the heart of Adelaide. It just goes to show that you can find wildlife everywhere, if you take the time to look.

What is it that drives so many men to be so cruel towards women? All over the world, in every society? And why are even more men so silent on the issue? Male violence against women cannot be solved by women, however brave & determined they may be. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

We end the year with one major party celebrating that it has approved no new coal mines on the same day it approved 3 coal mine extension (one to 2088!), and the other madly touting its batshit nuclear fantasy as a cover for more coal. But yeah, the Greens and teals are the anarchists.

Not the xmas surprise I’d hoped for! Off foot for about 6 weeks. Avoiding politics so any good book recommendations welcome! Love most genres except chick lit and madly serious fantasy stuff 🙏

CANBERRA PEEPS! Tomorrow night, 6pm at the Museum of Australian Democracy, is READ TO ME, a fantastic event where cartoonists and comic artists show their work on a big screen. Words don't do it justice but it's a GREAT EVENING and often hilarious. Come along! I think it's a $10 entry fee

Hello Bluesky 🦋 It’s my first post, so meet my boys, Freddie and Mr Percival. We live in Bundanoon, a small village in the Southern Highlands of NSW, Australia, on Gandangarra and Dharawal Country. I love travel, food, politics & lots of other stuff. Any recommendations on who to follow?
