The TikTok girlies (gender neutral) are hatching a plan to all buy copies of communion by hooks on Vance's release date. I will be participating.

"With the LNG drought pushing up electricity prices and photovoltaics providing a cheaper, easier alternative, a boom in rooftop solar is far more likely than a return to coal. Don’t look under the ground for the solution to the LNG crisis. The answer is in the skies." agreed!

Seems worth reading up on. If anyone has good resources, add 'em to the list.

Earlier this year there were people who argued Trump kidnapped Maduro to protect the status of the petrodollar. Seemed reasonable at the time (the explanation, not Trump's action). And now....this.

The "careful" "AI Safety" company that just accidentally leaked its entire source code to the world is the one that African governments are entering into agreements with to include in infrastructures from health to god knows what. . techcrunch.com/2026/03/31/a...

It’s arguably less a war than it is just a string of war crimes

We’re finally getting to a point where news outlets are calling Israel’s invasion of Lebanon what it is. But in the weeks prior (and even now, since some of these phrases were spotted just this week), media went out of its way to avoid calling a spade a spade.

I will say this: AI is absolutely not too big to fail. OpenAI or Anthropic dying is not even remotely comparable to what would’ve happened if AIG died or they didn’t do TARP. Also, the TARP bailout was only for financial instruments too! The AI bubble is much simpler and dumber.

Oh so now copyright matters.

A reminder that fossil fuel companies are long-term strategic thinkers (not in a good way) and realise better than even some in the climate space that the lull in public climate focus is temporary, so it's good to keep those greenwashing muscles trained up. Now, they just add "data centres" in there

Today, Israel is killing children again, like they do every day. Along with racist apartheid laws to execute Palestinians only. Don't stop taking action. Do all you can. Free Palestine. 🇵🇸

Everyone should familiarize themselves with the Wright's law unit cost curve. Solar, batteries and most products we are now electrifying (EVs, heat pumps food pasturazation) are going to continue down this path in a giant feedback loop. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experie...

I am loath to do this, but I need your help. My 20+ year marriage has unexpectedly imploded. There's a kid involved. Aside from Lupus, Autism and a shitty 2009 Mazda, I have nothing. Things are fairly desperate right now, so if you can help out now in any way at all I'd be really grateful ❤️

Not much intellectual analysis needed when the Secretary of Defense begins a statement with "Thank you Kid Rock"

"People really don’t like data centers. Especially when powered by fossil fuels." Bi-partisan opposition to something like I've never seen before. It's the people vs the oligarchs. Refreshing. We will need a lot more of this.

"These tests that the IOC and a lot of sports federations are now presenting as new technology. They have literally used these before and found that they were, on one hand, inaccurate in creating these false positives, and on the other hand, just in violation of people’s human rights.”

The Israeli parliament has approved the death penalty for Palestinians convicted of murdering Israelis, marking a major victory for Israel’s far-right, which has pushed hard for the measure. Per AP, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu came to the chamber to vote yes in person.

We are seeing a growing movement to discount the climate impacts of methane. It's understandable because the methane problem is such a big and unsolvable one for US oil and gas and LNG exports. However, ignoring science is what got us here. We can do better.

Yeah, that guy’s seen some things. 😆

A letter to the National Press Club. Send them your thoughts too, please.

The ADF today announced a New Littoral Manoeuvre Group and helpfully said "Media will be able to access imagery/vision" and provided a link ....... to some AI slop.

Well stop throwing bones to your evangelical wingnuts by shutting down renewable projects, or deliberately tying them up in red tape because the process is the punishment.

Absolute disgrace. he should not even be in the country, let alone speaking at the NPC

Congratulations to the National Press Club for giving a voice to this murderous regime. The entire board should be forced to resign. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03...

I dunno I think neoliberalism’s grand plan of dismantling the welfare state and the social contract and replacing them, respectively, with nothing and nothing created a pretty fertile breeding ground for fascism and this isn’t even particularly controversial anymore.

A Russian oil tanker will reach Cuba tomorrow after the USA have refused to get in armed conflict with the Destroyer that guards it. The USA is of course spreading this as 'letting' it through.

I know you will be worried about Santos and Woodside and Ampol, so let's check in with how they're going live.thepoint.com.au

Tomorrow the Press Club platforms Israeli Ambassador Hillel Newman who questioned whether 165 people killed in an Iranian school strike were actually there. It's not even listed on their website. Many who've long argued Australian media is biased will see this as proof.

The Press Club cancelled Pulitzer winner Chris Hedges after he submitted a speech on the killing of Palestinian journalists, then booked Israel's ambassador instead. If you wonder why media reporting on Gaza genocide has been so disappointing this is what they think is normal.

I think the media are a lot to blame with that, continuing with their narrative that Labor are left wing. When everyone around you has that belief, it's easy to be assimilated into that view

I can think of no reason not to boycott Ray Bans entirely, so that each and every wearer of them is an identifiable sex pest suspect from a good distance.

What a stunning demonstration of how data centre development is directly and materially boosting fossil fuels. After ferocious lobbying the Carney government caved and killed off environmental rules to allow fossil gas power plants to be built for data centres: thewalrus.ca/after-intens...

I dare say making politicians pay for their own meals and transport would go a long way to funding it too. A 25% levy on political donations would go even further.

The US has only 16 of these E-3 AWACS remaining in its entire operational inventory, which is why the US had to beg Australia to send its E-7 Wedgetail to the region to help with ISR. The US has *zero* Boeing E-7's operational because someone convinced them they could do this all from space.

Alice Augusta Ball found the cure for leprosy at 23. She died in a mysterious lab accident at 24. Arthur Dean stole her research, stole it and renamed it from "The Ball Method" to "The Dean Method." It took 90 years before her original research papers were found and she got the credit due to her.

Israel now openly murdering Lebanon’s journalists, just as they did in Gaza

It’s such a laughably bad argument for the war on Iran to say “The people there want regime change.” I want regime change in the US, and I 100% do not want the US to be bombed. F off with garbage arguments.

Israel is a terrorist organization, funded by deeply evil rich Americans.
