“Tasted a little tear gas— tasted like fascism”

I absolutely cannot get my head around the stupidity of bending the knee to the AF-freakin'-L insisting the Tasmanian government build a stadium - with a roof - so that they can have a team. I get a lot of Tasmanians want a team, but at this cost?

A lot of people saying Scott Morrison doesn’t deserve the AC, but he’s one of only two people who can say they prevented Peter Dutton becoming prime minister.

ICYMI: Here’s what’s really important. Not two billionaire babies bickering.

Hey, Republicans! You know what would really make Elon Musk super mad? If you restored science funding, foreign aid, and thousands of government jobs. He’d be so owned.

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

Nintendo: We have a new console People: yaaay Nintendo: The marketing is great People: yessss Nintendo: The console is cool People: Thats right Nintendo: We thought of almost everything People: Wait where are the games Nintendo: You're not gonna believe this bit

Proportion of Australians with superannuation accounts affected: 0.5%.

I miss the cool Covid variant names. NB.1.8.1? Pfffft, Omicron could take it in a fight!

Why does it not surprise me that Tim Wilson breached election protocol by visiting the AEC? There were hours of commentary about Monique Ryan’s husband’s activities with a single corflute but there’s crickets about Wilson’s fruit delivery to the AEC recount office. #auspol

And he deserves nothing. Actually settling this is fucking bonkers

The Trump administration has clearly been captured by Big Disease and Big Hurricane

New: A multi-year research effort at the University of Pennsylvania, by a team led by Dr. Benjamin L. Schmitt, found it probable that the Russia 🇷🇺 was involved in the Nord Stream sabotage

The Ukrainian president has more respect for America's war dead than the U.S. president.

4 Corners now fawning over Tim Wilson as some sort of genius future of the Liberal Party. He's a nasty right wing cooker more interested in trolling than policy. He's an asset to the Labor Party more than anything else. #auspol #4Corners

Targeting a private educational institute because it won’t conform its governance and curriculum to what the state wants is…communist.

under an @unfunk.cx government, Members of Parliament who lose their seat at an election will not be permitted to stand for future elections. You get one shot, buddy. #auspol

Trump left West Point after his speech instead of staying to shake the hand of every graduating cadet, as is longstanding tradition. If Obama or Biden had done that, we would never the hear the end of it. But it's Trump, so reporters don't care.

It’s a good read from Tingle but wtf does the headline mean.

It should be controversial to starve kids: It Should Not Be Controversial to Plead for Gaza’s Children https://www.theatlantic.com/family/archive/2025/05/gaza-children-starving-israel-aid/682902/

I fucking love gadgets. I like new things. I set up a gadget savings account ten years ago to restrict myself on gadget purchases because I am a gadget loving freak. Pretty amazing for the tech industry to make someone like me into a tech dethusiast in a matter of five years.

Think you might one day have $3m in your super & be affected by the super tax changes? Ok, you are 18yo, you just got a job - it pays... $150k! Give yourself a 3.7% annual pay rise. Never take time off for study, kids or illness. You will retire with $3,017,016 moneysmart.gov.au/how-super-wo...

Not just anti-vaxxers either, all manner of "wellness" parasites too

Tired: A minority govt Wired: A minority opposition

Massive congratulations to @parentsforclimate.bsky.social for launching the legal action against EnergyAustralia and securing a landmark result: an apology for greenwashing and a commitment to direct emission reduction. Well done to Equity Generation Lawyers as well. Have a read:

Turns out when I prayed for the president to get cancer I should have been more specific
