I believe in a woman's right to choose. I think those in the anti-choice lobby who hate child welfare, public health and human rights are not pro-life. I also think male right-wing politicians may want to criminalise abortion just to ensure silence from women whose abortions they paid for.

MIT announces the future closure of its academic reputation. "Now that Robert F. Kennedy Junior is shredding science and a UFC arena is on the White House Lawn, it was incumbent on us to get with the times and close the libraries. We may even end up burning a few books" said spokesman AI Flash.

I can't emphasise enough how important the submission by my brother @timhollo.bsky.social to the ill-conceived Royal Commission on Antisemitism is. The lateral antisemitism from fellow Jews is something Tim & I have dealt with for a long time, even before either of us used the term "anti-Zionist".

Another day, another cock-up.

Well, that's him gone then. Final bell.

"Many ideas that enjoy enormous popularity among billionaires—cryogenic immortality, disregard for punctuation, the Antichrist—have scandalously been excluded from our labs and classrooms."

To maintain a democracy, you need to vote for it repeatedly, but to suffer from a dictatorship, you only need vote for it once.

When the ADF's leader appears to support heckling in a ceremony, so deeply disrespectful of Anzac Day, he's opening the door to other hecklers yelling during the ceremony on other issues too. He's no strategic thinker if he hasn't thought it through: he's not fit to lead and needs to be replaced.

If, one day, you have to go to the funeral of someone who booed at an Anzac Day ceremony, it would be just as appropriate and equally respectful to boo at the bits of that person's own funeral that you don't like.

Why is the German word of the day never a word we would all use constantly, such as Diensttauglichkeitsuntersuchung?

If AI is being trained using these very stable geniuses, there is no hope for humanity.

Australiah governments should carefully observe what the French are doing to gain digital sovereignty, dumping Windows for Linux in a few months. We need to consider how we can best be independent and to learn from others' experience.

The term 'Trump Derangement Syndrome' should be reassigned to label the behaviour of those who can be hoodwinked into supporting selfish, senile, predatory nepo babies with delusions of grandeur.

Trump shored up an evil Iranian regime when he bombed a school. The Iranian government was about to fall to popular unrest without any outside help - but Trump's war has given Iran's rulers a new focus and entrenched them. Trump is a child abuser, he kills kids overseas and imprisons them at home.

This little rooster with his kill-'em-all rhetoric, like the unplanned war itself, shores up Iranians' support for an evil Iranian regime just when it was wildly unpopular and likely to fall. The US made martyrs and a fresh Ayatollah. It's almost as if Trump wants to keep the Ayatollahs in power.

Who wore it better?

I'm sorry, I can't, because I have a subsequent engagement.

You went to dinner with Julie Andrews. She ordered: 1. Consommé 2. Chou-fleur frit à la sauce ail 3. Gelée anglaise. You ordered: 1. Steak haché oeuf à cheval 2. Curry de pommes de terres et petits-pois 3. Chèvre. The waiter then said: Soup,a cauli fried,jelly,steak eggs,pea aloo,goat's cheese?

ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about? VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

I'm pretty sure 'Democracy dies in darkness' was intended as a warning, not an instruction manual. #WaPo
