Thank you, Guardian, for showing us a full-frontal, un-censored picture of Grace Tame. Other media (inc ABC, SMH) are such wimps. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... (For the visually impaired, the picture is of the PM greeting Grace Tame, who is wearing a T-shirt with "FUCK MURDOCH" on it.)

Some have managed to find a way to get angry at the Ms Tame, saying it was 'disrespectful' to use an Australia Day event to insult the ruler of Australia. Read more: chaser.com.au/general-news...

The Morrison Liberal Govt didn't take care of our veterans, leaving a huge backlog of compensation claims (now up to $13 billion). Peter Dutton was the Defence Minister during this time (2021-2022). Why is he never questioned on this? #auspol #ADF #defence

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all." Arthur C. Clarke

Are we over talking about how fucking hilarious it is that Matt Gaetz resigned his Congressional seat only to withdraw his AG appointment too. 🤣

"Due to the short timeframe of this inquiry, the committee would appreciate submissions being limited to 1-2 pages." Deeply unserious govt.

This is DESPICABLE. It will cut people off from the world- their families, friends and legal advice- and will lead to suicides. Absolutely fucking shameful.

if you’re a #labor or #coalition supporter, i’ll understand if you want to avoid eye contact today… the 2 major parties are ramming through a set of anti-democratic changes to the fundamental settings of our democracy… entrenching incumbency, undermining fair elections.

I wish I was making this up, but the boss of the National Anti-Corruption Commission has given a speech where he admits that he acted with "apprehended bias" during the Robodebt non-investigation. As Bernard Keane and many others argue, Brereton has to resign www.crikey.com.au/2024/11/18/p...

Elon Musk spent $45 million to target Black, Jewish, Muslim voters and others with disinformation ads. The ads had lies tailored to target citizens by race and religion to demotivate thems from voting and turn them against Kamala Harris. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Seriously - The Australian's front page is an "exclusive" from the CEO of Glencore - the world's second biggest coal miner - saying that Albanese should slow down the transition to renewables and use more coal

"every fraction of a degree matters" is true as hell. In the same way that releasing CO2 hurts people and planet, avoiding its release saves us from potential harm This isn't some saccharine 'hopeful' message: it's the hard, inarguable physical reality. www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/w...

Nah it’s fine, if I want alternate points of view, I watch the news where the western media simply pretends everything is fine and there are no concurrent genocides occurring. I don’t have to actively seek out your disingenuous white nonsense

👉🏻The Liberals are not better economic managers than Labor. 👉🏻When Liberals claim to be better economic managers, it’s showing their desperation and lack of any actual ideas. 👉🏻Journalists never call out this BS and instead continually repeat it. 👉🏻We should all call it out!

The sheer panic behind tech companies just slathering their products with generative AI is so telling. This is only going to get worse as they try to 10x their demand-fabrication efforts because they only get 1% of the results they expected

Remember that time Caligula made his horse a consul and everyone was like cool (actually they weren't, they were like ok that's too much and killed him). Quite possible Trump will be deposed by his Praetorian Guard before he even makes it to the throne.
