Well I for one am not at all surprised. "One of the world’s longest continuous bird counts has dashed the ‘wistful optimism’ of scientists hoping for a La Niña-driven recovery" www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

This is probably the best photo I’ve ever taken. It was captured in split moment and the detail makes me beam every time I look at it. #pelicans #nature #photography #happy #photographer #happy #moment

The birds had a ballroom blitz this morning. Gang-gang 1, rainbow lorikeet 1 & 2 start screeching. Gang-gang 2 comes and joins in. Then gang-gangs 3 & 4 turn up to in the racket. GG1 &2 chase GG3 & 4 while RLs chase GGs. All screeching at top volume. I stand by with the seed. #birds #ausbirds #chaos

Scott Reef’s a rare, unspoiled gem home to endangered sea snakes, turtles & manta rays. But Woodside’s mammoth Browse gas project threatens it all. The Environment Minister must act to protect this natural wonder, not to allow further damage to our climate. www.smh.com.au/environment/...

No nation state is above criticism. You can criticise Israel's actions and policies without it being anti-semitic. It does not make Jewish people safer by conflating criticism of Israel with anti-semitism.

Now that numerous EU countries are pausing applications for Syrian refugees, I expect the policy-free Dutton & co will call for the same here. No policies other than division. #auspol

News Corp are waging a political campaign against Prime Minister Albanese by trying to create a political scandal by implying it is his fault the Melbourne synagogue fire occurred. This is a gross abuse of media power. But don’t expect the rest of the media to call them out for it! It’s crickets 🦗

If Peter Dutton gets his way, he shall erase First Nations from public life and consciousness completely and insist Australia has only a white history. His toxic Western colonialism mantra is set in stone. #auspol #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe

I'm beginning to wonder why I've bothered to study at school & university, developed my analytical skills over 25+ yrs of work when our politicians are telling us black is white and the moon is made of cheese. Rational thought is missing from politics today. #auspol

Hundreds of attacks on Muslims in Australia since 9/11 but the media takes no notice. That's because Muslim lives matter less in this country and because of racism #auspol

Thanks to all the atheists out there just doing the right thing without me threatening you with fire and brimstone.

The willingness of Aust media & politicians to use unfiltered & prejudicial comments by a corrupt Israeli PM to attack Australia's PM is truly disgusting. It's one thing having a political disagreement: quite another to undermine national sovereignty. What happened to "we decide" Australian policy?

Wild that Australian news keeps verbatim quoting Netanyahu without routinely adding that's he's genocidal piece of shit responsible for murdering tens of thousands of children. By all means, quote what he says, but I guarantee, whatever it is, the baby-killing context is more important.
