Barrie Cassidy has a podcast! #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Thank you @theshot.net.au for the Sunday Shot! Sunday mornings are back to the good old Insiders days. Happy days

The Israel lobby appears to have a voice to parliament

ABC Global Affairs Editor John Lyons warns that Donald Trumpā€™s plan to take over & own Gaza is ā€œnot about the Palestiniansā€ itā€™s about chasing a ā€œglittering prizeā€ - ā€œtens of billions of dollars in commerce & tradeā€ & that only Saudi Arabia can stop him. #ABCInsiders

John Lyons on Trumpā€™s Gaza plan, and Albaneseā€™s silence: ā€œStrangely the Australian Prime Minister has yet to condemn it - he is an outlier on this. One of the few international leaders not to have condemned it. ā€œEither he agrees with it or he is worried about upsetting somebody if he condemns it.ā€

The Jewish Council of Australia strongly condemns Donald Trumpā€™s suggestion the United States will ā€˜take overā€™ the Gaza Strip and move Palestinian people elsewhere. You can read our full statements in the latest media release at jewishcouncil.com.au.

Hi Bluesky - I am looking to speak to people who have been doing their mutual obligations for Centrelink in the heat the last couple of days. If this is you, please ping me if you are comfortable chatting!

My boyfriend got hit on by a gay guy this morning and heā€™s been insufferably happy all day.

There is no such fucking thing as being ā€œtoo womanā€ to pilot a helicopter, ā€œtoo gayā€ to land a plane or ā€œtoo blackā€ to be an air traffic controller. There is however, such a thing as being too hateful, too stupid & too sociopathic to be president. And we call that Donald Trump.

Little penguins abandoning chicks due to lack of food due to abnormally warm sea temps, bioluminescence due an abundance of salps and now this; a 'gobsmacking' bloom of jellyfish around Hobart All indicators of a very sick ocean and waterways www.abc.net.au/news/2025-01...

Black Deaths in Custodyā€”no consequences Racist attacks against Black/Brown peopleā€”no consequences Islamophobic attacks against Muslimsā€”no consequences Oppose the genocide of Palestinians by Israelā€”YOU ARE aNtiSeMiTic AND SHALL BE GOING TO JAIL. Right? #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-01...

So this is complete bullshit. It was just a zookeeper with a microphone.

Time for your annual reminder that itā€™s Tasmanian devil dispersal season! This means young devils out finding their way in the world are particularly vulnerable, & often drawn towards roads for easy passage & food. So watch your speed on Tassie roads this season & keep an eye out šŸ‘€

New data from the ABC, showing that police, teachers, and nurses cannot afford to live in Australiaā€™s metropolitan areas. This is what a housing crisis looks like, folks. What say we stop spending so much on mythical submarines, and start building real houses? #auspol #wapol

The censorship algorithm on Twitter reduced our audience by roughly 95%, and seriously, who does that to a wildlife biology & advocacy group ? So we moved šŸ˜‡ over here to BlueSky If you could, please help us regain our following Follow Retweet and Repeat ;-) Together we can change the world.

The lure.............

The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ā€˜hystericsā€™ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity

Some day, I aspire to do ANYTHING as well as Prince played that MF guitar.

Campbellā€™s witty response to this homophobe makes me want to enjoy some of their delicious chicken noodle soup right now! šŸœ šŸ³ļøā€šŸŒˆ

If you ask me, this would have been a much better choice for Timeā€™s Person of the Year.

TIME could have chosen as its #PersonOfTheYear: ā€¢ the murdered journalists of Gaza ā€¢ the murdered doctors of Gaza ā€¢ the murdered nurses of Gaza ā€¢ the murdered uni lecturers of Gaza ā€¢ the murdered teachers of Gaza ā€¢ the murdered women of Gaza ā€¢ the murdered children of Gaza #GazaGenocide

Wonderful news.
