BREAKING Trump regime renames Camp David as Totally Masculine David

the usual story. rich guy wants to punish universities for not clamping down on pro-palestinian protests and for doing too much to recruit minorities. at base these guys want the top tier of american universities to become, once more, safe-spaces for their dunderheaded failsons

Right wing think tank (AEI) employee Roger Pielke Jr. has formed a cozy relationship with the Murdoch media as he spreads climate disinformation in Australia. It's right out of #ScienceUnderSiege (and yes, Roger is prominently mentioned in the book): www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Amazed reading Australian newspapers of the 1930s and 40s, which reported on people’s random visits to relatives in other towns as news

Hard rubbish but for phrases

I had missed this new polling data, released back in June. I had always assumed that the Dems lost because of low voter turnout, but this suggests that if the non-voters had turned up to vote, many of them would have voted for Trump. Depressing. Gift link

Indeed

Meanwhile in Australia’s Northern Territory, Justice Blow has published his report about dodgy employment practices in the local police, and a local journalist has just spuffed all over his keyboard.

This is a big thing

Don't think Japan is legalizing same-sex marriage or becoming more welcoming to immigrants anytime soon: bsky.app/profile/alex...

They start scrolling Mastodon and all turn into furries. Then start lecturing their superiors about federation and instances before they're ultimately deported to El Salvador

Australian media on neo-Nazism:

Hastie reminds me of Bernardi. I can’t say anything more damning than that. #AusPol

WAPO: “.. the capital expenditures made by a small number of companies are now contributing more to GDP than the spending of all of America’s consumers.” @washingtonpost.com #GDP www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

“The e-bike market is skyrocketing — and, according to some studies, outpacing electric cars…The question now is: Do officials double down on deadly car-centric urban design, or do they rethink cities to encourage people to ditch four wheels for two?” Via @grist.org grist.org/transportati...

Actual experts who know what they’re talking about know that smart bike-lanes for people on e-bikes or any other bikes aren’t “subsidized.” They have excellent returns-on-investment, support economic development, save public money, etc. Bad news about car lanes though. HEAVILY subsidized. Facts.

Science illiteracy is a growing problem especially among American males who draw their information from podcasts and social media. They by and large lack even a rudimentary understanding of what science and scientific method are.

like how are things this bonkers lol

This is the problem with grievance culture: it can never be satisfied. It’s Cracker Barrel all the way down

I am so jealous of little animals who can curl up into a little circle. That's gotta be the best nap you can take.

Of course Tommy Robinson comes after the new Archbishop of Canterbury. "Masculine Christianity" is neither Christian nor particularly masculine. It's just fascism with a cross.

Hundreds of people are caring for cuttings from Tasmania's unique alpine plants in their backyards, as part of a biobanking project. The idea is to create an urban climate refuge, which can be used to restock wild populations of the plants in the wake of a bushfire. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

oh no, did someone poison the legendary poison-gas enjoyer

6 days later they're trying to regain that high by posting about a supersecret NASA FTL crew finding Amelia Earhart in cryostasis in a medbed on a moon of Jupiter, the neckless wonderboy all but forgotten like an old toy

Reach out, touch faith Your own personal Jesus Someone to hear your prayers Someone who cares Your own personal Jesus Someone to hear your prayers Someone who's there

I just have to post this #iceage masterpiece from time to time: A tiny (3.7 cm) but amazing figurine of a woolly mammoth carved in mammoth ivory some 40,000 years ago. Found in the Vogelherd cave on the Swabian Jura, south-west Germany. 📷 me 🏺

High risk of sabotage against Danish armed forces, intelligence service says reut.rs/4nAi6Y4

also I'd just like to say that this moment and like the decade afterward sure did feel like everything was going to work out

Neo-Nazi dentist and member of the National Socialist Network, Ian Lomax, has been suspended from practising. Happy Friday.

🌸 Spring has arrived in Australia, meaning native bees are buzzing around searching for food, mates and suitable nesting sites. Now is the perfect time to provide habitat for our pollinating friends by building a bee hotel 🐝🧪 biodiversitycouncil.org.au/resources/bu...

Thank you, @caolanrob.bsky.social Please watch Caolan’s documentaries.

Jews, you do not need to read these replies on Yom Kippur. But leftist Gentiles who still insist there is not a problem with antisemitism on the left, you really do need to read these replies.

Impossible to read this passage in Seeing Like a State and not picture Canberra from above

My thoughts on the passing of Jane.

My god. “Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

Like, there's nowhere else for this shit to go. Using the magic beans to fuel a plagiarism machine that gets shit wrong, tells people to kill themselves, and seduces kids, is their last best hope for the magic beans they've literally bet all the money on.

We will regret not acting faster on climate change.

that is so many people, already

Fascinating world of ancient #glass: a #Roman bracelet made of turquoise and dark blue glass beads. They are imitating beads made of the lapis lazuli and turquoise, semi-precious stones mined in Afghanistan and Egypt. Found in a burial in Augusta Raurica, Switzerland, 4th c. AD 📷 me 🏺 #archaeology

Adventures In Microscopy: Desmids! This sample was gathered at the base of a waterfall I saw while hiking. Desmids have high degrees of symmetry which remind me of paper snowflakes. Enjoy! #FearlessMicroscopy #STEAM #Microscopy #ScienceIsBeautiful #Foldscope #ScienceIsFun #EduSky

Flotilla organisers earlier called on the federal government to use "all diplomatic and economic tools" to ensure the group's release unharmed. "We implore the Australian government to use every effort to keep them safe. To demand Israel release all six Australians immediately and unharmed,"

Horrible but deeply unsurprising news. This station and the Met in general are probably among the most racist, misogynistic and violent, but don’t imagine this is a localised “few bad apples”. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
