Wouldn't it be great if our mainstream news media (incl. our "fair and balanced" ABC) reported the facts? πŸ€” #auspol #AusVotes2025 #ausecon #inflation

#auspol The Australian economy has gone from 91st in world under the awful inept liberals to 2nd best under Labor!

It is incredible how well β€œEcho Beach” by Martha and The Muffins would fit onto say,β€˜Head Injuries’ by Midnight Oil. Give it a try using Peter Garrett’s voice. I’ve been doing it all day and it’s magnificent. youtu.be/lpqDTQOFvf0?...

Brilliant:

Musk thinks he rules the world while his followers validate him. Musk is a bigger threat than Trump, IMO.

The US oligarchy rule is a warning to Australia

Our latest Shotcast is up and available. Recorded just this afternoon, it's hot off the press . . . or the sound card, or whatever. Jo and Dave and I discuss 2024 and why we're rid of it and of course, my new novel 'Gunnawah', and who and what it's all about. shows.acast.com/the-shot-pod...

This is how to report bullshit

A smart energy policy should be about two things: 1) reliable & affordable power, and 2) decarbonising as fast as possible Renewables win on both counts. Suggesting Nuclear would be an option for Australia is nothing more than political disruption, designed to prolong the life of fossil fuels.

Perhaps if we were to ban religion for children under 16…

Give a man a fish. He feeds for a day. Teach a man to fish. He feeds for a lifetime. Teach a billionaire to fish. He buys all the lakes and rivers and then charges you to fish them.

Interesting factoid: On Twitter, during the "Voice" vote I posted two tweets that, between, them got ONE MILLION views! Swarmed with bots and hateful comments that went for weeks. Never seen that before...nor since. Don't ever tell me that the vote wasn't manipulated. Those in the know, know.

Hey. Just hit 10,000 followers. And not a bot or a troll among β€˜em. That’s nice, thank you.
