Pay attention here (if you can) because Michaelia is actually singing the core messaging the Liberal party will rely upon in this coming election "External fears+internal fears+Peter Dutton will protect you" Or . . . Beecawz Paytah Dutt'n iz thu laydah aynd we awll wanna feeyal prutektd Andrehw

#BREAKING 🚨 The Victorian Greens have officially conceded defeat in the Prahran state by-election, with Liberal candidate Rachel Westaway winning the seat with a 13.6% swing after preferences Labor is ahead in the Werribee by-election, but the result remains too close to call

Here's @boganintel.bsky.social first Shot piece for 2025. 'No one feels safe in Zionist Australia'

In case you were wondering why we suddenly have new hate crime laws and mandatory sentencing. The Labor government @australianlabor.bsky.social is very unhappy about any and all opposition to Israel's genocide. "Israel praises 'controversial' new Australian laws" www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

UK: Teacher with Long Covid sacked for taking too much time off wins £42,000 payout after claiming she was told 'there's no such thing as rest in teaching' www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

My posts can sometimes be blunt but I am not here to soften what’s happening in the UK. I am here to tell the truth and the truth is ugly. Thousands of children have been orphaned via transmission. Tens of thousands of children and teachers have long covid. 🧵

Trump coin, trump bible, trump tower, trump golf course….. it’s only a matter of time until he expects every American to hang a picture of him in their home

Tony Jones is of the "it was just a joke" era that really should have been dumped long ago. Has any viewer while watching a sport ever once thought "You know, what this broadcast needs is some Tony Jones" or "Oh good, they're got Tony Jones hosting, this'll be great" ?

#COVID: For immunocompromised people getting sick is a disaster that can trigger a relapse or superimpose #longCOVID onto their illness. In pre-pandemic times there was the illusion that people are willing to care for each other. How hard is it to put a mask on? apnews.com/article/covi... #masks

AUKUS is about locking Australia into US war plans with China. From Monday, this alliance is an alliance with Donald Trump. We need to rescind it. #auspol #aukus

High CO2 levels from exhaled breaths increase the risk of airborne infections. Wear a respirator and check air quality with a CO2 monitor regularly. Public spaces should install CO2 monitors, with levels kept below 800 PPM (or 1000 PPM with proper filtration).

I don't think it will be just the Greens sharing power. There will be a large bloc of Independents who have to be figured into the mix. The Greens, for all their positives, are still a partisan group and have to toe party lines. Indies will ensure true equality and integrity. #independents #auspol

Wow, big surprise. It turns out that getting sick more often does *not* make you stronger, but actually weakens you and makes you more prone to illness. The idea that 'kids just need to be exposed to bugs' needs to die. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Excellent messaging from Vic Health. Covid is airborne, after all.

Dutton isn’t strong. He’s cruel - that’s not strong #auspol

I can't love this picture enough.🥹 So happy for Michael J Fox.❤️🙏

Ah the whiff of petrol, the buzz of the crowd and the rumble of V8s - the wonder of Summernats in Canberra. How long will the planet tolerate the defiance of climate science? Ah well carpe diem.

So are American women going to be forcibly cut open now? Given they are just containers, not people anymore.

Asian countries handled COVID better as they acted on lessons from previous outbreaks such as SARS, doing hard work on policies such as normalizing mask wearing. Western countries are recklessly doing the opposite & making us more vulnerable to future pandemics by stigmatizing & banning masks.

NYE fireworks are as outdated as The Melbourne Cup or greyhound racing.

If you want this site to succeed and the one owned by a fascist to fail, publish your content here, not there. Lead. Don’t wait for everyone else to come here then follow. They won’t come here while you keep going back there. A little sacrifice to help bring down a billionaire. Lead.

Seems fair…

This remains, and I say this advisedly, one of the best exchanges I have ever seen on social media

I’d recommend everyone regardless of medical risk bring a mask on your airplane journey, a disinfectant wipe to clean the seat you’re in and hand sanitizer. It’s going to be on you alone to protect your health. Warning signs are everywhere.

If you think climate protests are annoying and inconvenient, wait till you experience this. This is Victoria, right now.

Whoever made this is brilliant.

very sad to hear of the passing of john marsden. he was one of the standout teachers through my schooling — in many ways similar to the character of john keating in dead poets society. the school hated his unorthodox methods… www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12...

They don’t have them in Australia, or almost anywhere else in the developed world, because we all have strict controls on guns. Just sayin…

"Stop asking why schools don't have bulletproof glass and metal detectors at all the doors. Ask why schools have to. That's the question that needs to be asked,” Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes

The antivaxers and onlyvaxers have one key thing in common: You must get infected endlessly. That's all they're about. Infection, infection, infection.

So today we were asked to get out of a wedding photo because we were wearing a mask. So. We did. But that wasn’t nice.

If the US stops the polio vaccine - should Australia issue a travel warning for the US? #auspol
