As dozens of frog species have declined across Central America, scientists have witnessed a remarkable chain of events: With fewer tadpoles to eat mosquito larvae, rates of mosquito-borne malaria in the region have climbed, resulting in a fivefold increase in cases. https://wapo.st/4paBuuT

Took a few photos using my iPhone with a R72 IR filter at the sculpture garden, National Gallery of Australia. #photography

The National Gallery is always worth a visit.

Hi, I’m God. Jesus and I agree that starving the poor so you can build yourself golden bathrooms and golden ballrooms is evil. Anyone who does that shall burn for eternity. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Thanks, God

"We are getting a lot of feedback around it. We welcome the feedback." Mr Logan is hoping that with time, people will get used to it.” Bwa ha ha ha. it’s a train wreck. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

OK. *deep sigh* If we’re really doing this … If anyone has information about this alleged $130 million “donation” — including the identity of the “donor,” if such a person or corporation exists, and any legal opinions purporting to authorize this — please send it my way. I am at crg.32 on Signal.

US president has taken a series of escalatory steps that appear aimed at toppling the Venezuelan government.

Disgraceful that betting agencies are skirting laws to market their brand to ppl who have self-excluded through BetStop. This is precisely why a partial ad ban won't work Review of BetStop urgently needed to stop this from happening. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat. For the crime of … complaining about government policy. Core 1A speech. With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

The Government justified a clamp down on freedom of information requests by claiming an increase in malicious and automated FOI attempts. Only problem is, there's no evidence of such a thing. Our research showed that the number of FOI requests has not increased, but processing time has. 🔗⤵️ #auspol

Senate Estimates hearings today - which session are you looking forward to most and why is it the NACC?

Seems the #NationalPressClub uses similar tactics to the Albanese Govt re disappearing information from websites: Defence Dept regarding Australia’s role in manufacturing components that facilitate #PalestinianGenocide (see ABC news site this morning). This👇 re #NPC pwww.wsws.org/en/articles/...

#auspol Happier Times #NACC the NACC Perp Walk David Hurley (Scomo’s Gov Gen) of the singing-wife; Kathryn Campbell (Secretary of DHS for Scomo’s RoboDebt) and Paul Brereton (Commissioner NACC) on parade together in happier times what corruption? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Little tip: if you want to know what is wrong with Australia's tax system, just read the wealth advice column in the AFR: "If you sell a property resulting in surplus cash to invest, there’s no better place than the low/no-tax environment of superannuation."

Oregon AG Rayfield: I know for a fact, from talking to cities across Oregon, that if you pick up the phone and ask, “What could be helpful?” the answer would not be the United States military.

Can't we just get healthcare

Look, it’s Heroin and Adderall ganging up on Tylenol.

Andor would want you to cancel your Disney+ subscription. It's the least you can do for the Rebellion.

the Queensland government has decided to make people less safe and put more lives at risk. Again. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power. This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

LOST writer-producer Damon Lindelof says he won’t work with Disney unless Kimmel js reinstated. I’m hearing other talent weighing similar pledges.

Glad that Gov. Gavin Newsom is up for the fight and understands the danger.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

RIP #RobertRedford. This was his best. Inspiration to all of us journalists whose mission is holding truth to power. Still such an important message on the corrosion of democracy. Solidarity to my colleague John Lyons, preparing a story on the current climate for our program #4Corners. #journalism

Here’s a spread in Museum of Degenerates, with art from January 2020, ft. Charlie Kirk and Ben Shapiro. The background text gives some of the astonishing history of Turning Point USA, a Nazi propaganda outfit currently being sanitized and beautified by the despicable lemmings in our “Liberal Media.”
