We invited a couple of people over for dinner last night and because this is a dry community, the principal brought this. 😆 #Urapunga0852 #NorthernTerritory

Phew, I think we got away with it again, mentioning the costs of climate change without mentioning climate change.

Elon threatening to just leave people on the ISS is making a pretty good case for why you nationalize your space program!

Next time you go to the loo, don't take your phone. The other day I forgot to take my phone to the loo. It was a game changer. I was done inside two minutes. I'd forgotten that it could be so quick. Highly recommended.

Sporadic internet, no television, no vehicle, one small mirror (in the bathroom), work with kids during the day and a few places to walk = fewer worries. Here’s the bike shed. 😏 #Urapunga0852 #NorthernTerritory

“But police have repeatedly refused requests by family representatives to view CCTV footage of the incident to see what really happened. In stark contrast to the police story, numerous eyewitness accounts paint a picture of a violent homicide by off-duty police.” #DeathsInCustody #AusPol #NTPol

i really can't impress enough on young people that if you commit to not using AI you will be blessed by the promethean fire of knowledge and everyone around you will think you are a god for being able to do shit on your own and use your brain to have critical thoughts like a functional human being

Marine heatwave found to have engulfed area of ocean five times the size of Australia We rely on the ocean’s phytoplankton to produce about 50% of Earth’s oxygen. Marine heatwave are not good omens 😬

Oh smart jacket how did humanity get so far in dumb mute clothes? How did we philosophize without the output of our socks? Design ships without a shoutout from a shirt? And now, will my overcoat override me?

I bang on about our community radio stations here a lot, but that’s because they’re an incredible resource. If you click through I’ve compiled a list of all the hard & heavy shows PBS has on offer (all of which are available on-demand online). Not all are my taste, but I love that they all exist

As was the case last year, a majority of Israelis (58%) believe their country is not respected internationally. But the share of Israelis who say their country is not respected at all internationally has increased, from 15% last year to 24% this year. www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

Even if "white British" will be a minority in the UK in 40 years - so what? Seriously, so what? What is so terrible about that? Make people spell out their horrors. Make them spell out the things they are supposedly not allowed to say. Make them own it.

So, guys, I… just went to the doctor for a physical. They didn't weigh me. It cost $9 I got all my vaccine boosters in the same room They were on time. They didn't require a gynecologist exam to refill birth control

My plea to parents is to take your children to libraries as much as your complicated parenting schedule can possibly allow. Help your children understand that this resource belongs to them and to the community, and that anyone attempting to take it away is stealing from them.

I always thought lemons didn't have seeds. My husband did the cooking and any lemon segment he'd put in food or drink was always seedless. Only after he died did I realise - he'd been deseeding for me all this time. I think about this often.

I reckon a lot of Australians would rather we kicked the US out of Pine Gap and closed their military bases here, rather than pay them MORE protection money. We've already spent nearly half a $Trillion on #AUKUS. That's money not going to services for our citizens. #auspol

Etna has begun an eruption. Seems like those are tourists fleeing, I hope they all got away okay, that's a big pyroclastic flow heading their way. The second view shows from a distance how fast they move and they are deadly.
