This morning I noticed the interview Nasser Mashni gave to ABC yesterday was quietly pulled from the ABC website without explanation. As the horror in Gaza escalates, it looks like ABC has chosen to supress a crucial Palestinian voice. The ABC should explain why. www.crikey.com.au/2025/05/27/n...

Another Australian cultural institution failing to uphold its own values. Another person punished and silenced for opposing war crimes. Another cultural institution that doesn’t have the bravery to speak honestly about its straight up censorship. Weak as piss. www.slq.qld.gov.au/about/news-a...

Hey world, remember when you thought this was awesome? (Which, by the way, it was). Yeah well she's been suspended for a week now because of it; it's coloniser rules and forms of expression allowed only, indigenous people must only be angry in white ways. www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

The $3m ANU consulting contracts designed to ensure 'profit' began life just 17 days after new VC Geneveive Bell started. Was Council ever told the restructure plans were being designed in haste by a private firm? Council minutes don't suggest so. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/educati...

Even if Duolingo is helping you as it once did me, deleting your account is the only correct move right now. The company posted record profits, but capitalist greed means they're killing jobs, lowering quality, and will be creating an increasingly inferior experience for increasingly higher prices.

Feminist and trans folk have been united on how sexual violence is a pervasive problem in our society. Yet, some would have you think that cis women sharing space with trans women in public is the gravest risk to women’s rights. Ending men’s violence against women, cis and trans, demands solidarity.

If you’re doing the “trans men in women’s toilets” gotcha, 1) you’re making what was always a crap argument 2) you’re revealing that you haven’t read the UK Supreme Court judgment because it says trans men aren’t allowed in women’s spaces (because we look like men) OR men’s spaces

I made the switch to Tidal for a number of reasons, but the pay for artists is one of them. I also try and buy albums on Bandcamp too. I really want to read Liz Pelly's 'Mood Machine: The Rise of Spotify and the Costs of the Perfect Playlist'!
