Everyone's favourite Tasmanian @kudelka.bsky.social is raising money for CanTeen, who have been of enormous support to his family over the last 18 months. Sling a few dollars to his team The Loose Quolls before the fundraising walk on Sunday! If they reach $20k, he may even draw us another quoll.

Sky lite after dark

On Friday morning, not a single cargo vessel had left China with goods for the two major West Coast ports in the past 12 hours. That hasn’t happened since the pandemic. Six days ago, 41 vessels were scheduled to depart China for the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. On Friday, it was zero. ZERO.

I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it. www.wwltv.com/article/news...

🚨Fossil fuels disinformation group "Advance" says Greens leader Adam Bandt “could not survive” the “massive”, “yearlong campaign” it had “unleashed” Liberal Party-funded group says Bandt &other Greens casualties of its “multi-million dollar attack”… theklaxon.com.au/rkl5

Check out the comments. A pulitzer for the cartoonist who resigned in disgust, at the Post's cowardice.

Perhaps Tim Wilson can tell us how much the Liberal Party spent on his campaign, and how big were the cheques that Advance, Australians for Prosperity and other Atlas and Liberal-aligned organisations cashed on his behalf to shoehorn him back into Goldstein?

Memo to the media - it’s not your job to rehabilitate the Liberal Party. Go find some other contacts. You can actually hold the government to account without starting your reports “the Opposition leader today criticised…”

I wonder if Gina is getting spud scrubbed from her mural now.

We hadn’t won World War II by May 8th. I know because my family and I were still in an internment camp in Tule Lake, California.

Yeah so I reckon the Coalition need to leave a bad Google review for Trumps campaign manager Chris LaCivita.

All gone

Can we just spare a thought, too, for the official end of News Corp as a political force. No one outside an aging political class pays any attention to them.

One of the lessons of Liberal Party over my lifetime is that the next leader will be worse than you thought the last one was.

Atlas Shrugged

Mr Dutton: I for one believe all this "welcome ro Queensland". stuff is overdone. We don't need to be wecmed to Queenland thanks. Please make tour policy clear.

picked it, I definitely did not pick Dutton and Joyce leveraging an Anzac Day ceremony to align themselves and their parties with actual nazis. No bar too low I guess.

I have said it and am gonna keep saying it. The coalition voted for holding a referendum and then campaigned against the question to generate granular seat-by-seat data - all publicly funded - for their targeted racism strategy in this federal election campaign.

On a day when neo nazis tried to use the ANZAC Day dawn service in Melbourne to spread white supremacist filth, here’s a photo of Aboriginal Australian soldiers, from Lake Tyres Victoria, waiting for their uniforms in World War Two. Lest we forget. #Australia

Now we know who the inspiration for Voldemort was.

Re: the FSU shooter 👇🏽— the hate has consequences. This comes as here in Tennessee today Republicans denied any debate on Maberry’s anti-DEI bill, and Lamberth called DEI “communist” in the aftermath

I want to write a report fully detailing the conditions in CECOT via curatorial journalism—there is so much people don't know—but I'll tell you honestly that writing my last three reports on this subject has broken my spirit. My health has been affected. This is the worst topic I've ever written on.

Trump just totally ignored Cheryl Hines at UFC 🤣….love this for her!

Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

Yup. As others said, its an epic transfer of wealth from retirement accounts and union funds that cannot abide this chaos, to those invited to the WH Signal chat.

He has never acted rationally. But rational people kept constructing rational edifices to explain his behavior.

Lols… from 2 weeks ago

how could we possibly predict the outcome if we gave a syphilitic hyena a few pitchers of mojitos and asked it to drive us home

👇🏽 🎯 the point is to force the world to beg him for carve outs (and pay him off) Mafia-style Government

Not on the list: Russia

Trump-like. My @smh @theage cartoon.

This is, literally, deadly serious, y’all.

Maybe we will speak the truth at some point too. open.substack.com/pub/deanblun...

Just to be clear: What this directive appears to say is that the administration see libraries that carry books not written by white people or that discuss racism as “diversity initiatives,” so to be colorblind means there is only one recognized “color.”

Trevor Milton donated $920,000 to Trump’s PAC last year. He never made political donations before that. bsky.app/profile/atru...

If you don’t think this administration is so incompetent or callous as not to do this, you haven’t been paying attention.

Give me fucking strength

I know it bothers you as much as it does me that journalism as an institution can’t process that what it’s seeing on a daily basis is evil people doing evil sh*t Not incompetence, not naivete, not negligence, not mispeaking, not mixups, not miscommunications: straight-up evil people doing evil sh*t
