London 😄

Thank you for a fun few days and all your help with my caring for neighbour duties! Glad you are now inspired to strengthen up! By the way, my full current kgs are in here. Your targets! Take it slow!

A wonderful few days spent with the dynamic force that is @koparafallskid.bsky.social Can this woman lift some serious weight, yes she can!! Put me to shame. 🤣 Sadly my wingwoman skills 😉 (or rather lack of 😂) didn’t pay off, last night, but there were no worthy men for such radiant goddesses! 🤣🤣

How did we reach a point where the media has determined that two foreign leaders should decide whether Aukus should continue? Our sovereign interests are FOR OUR COMMUNITY TO DETERMINE. What Trump and Starmer thinks is entirely irrelevant. Our issue remains, is Aukus worth it? The answer is clear.

See my reply to James. I think that covers it. No, I've never understood straight cold blooded stuff either, as in out of pure hate or jealousy or whatever. Makes NO sense at all. Just walk away. But then I don't understand how in 2025 we still have wars. Have we, as a species, learnt nothing?

See you in court: Murujuga custodian's message to Environment Minister. Raelene Cooper is heading to the Federal Court to challenge the govt decision to extend the life of the North West Shelf gas processing plant at Karratha without considering her application to protect ancient rock art. #auspol

Labor read the room on Gaza. What does that say about our indifference to Palestinians? www.crikey.com.au/2025/05/26/l...

"Australia’s big problem is a lack of bold thinking about what schools can be. The federal government must act not only as funder or builder but also as a convener of vision – aligning efforts across systems, increasing social equity and reigniting public purpose in education." #auspol

Under the cover of the on-again/off-again Coalition drama, Labor is gearing up to approve an absolutely catastrophic gas project. Woodside’s North West Shelf is an untapped climate bomb. This approval would mean supercharged floods, fires and species extinctions.

Hear hear!

The ALP are looking at this purely within the prism of how they manage it politically, not what is right and wrong. Their lack of any meaningful action will remain a stain on their credibility forever.

I find myself completely unable to function today. I’ve seen a child surrounded by the flames of what was her family home. Starving babies. Defeated, broken men. Women cradling their shrouded children. It’s too much. And yet I still have to hear ‘but Hamas..’ FUCK OFF. Israel is committing genocide

He’s such an idiot. Good Lord. A mental midget.

The judgment is 110,000 words and this took me longer to produce than I would like to admit. But art takes time, as I'm sure you'll agree. Especially my favourite part below. Subscribe if the mood takes you. rick-morton.ghost.io/a-short-viol...

Heard our PM on radio today on the catastrophic floods in NSW and speaking of #climatechange He acknowledges that the science is in, things will get worse... SO... Stop clearing native forests! Stop approving new fossil fuel projects! Stop land clearing! FFS, am I going mad??

So Watt declined to meet with the council or Greenpeace while in WA on the grounds it would be inappropriate while the reconsideration request was still under review. So who did he meet with. Does anyone know? www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I was pondering today about Albanese’s prime ministerial legacy being purported to be his universal childcare policy. What strikes me as ironic is Labor poising to give the green light to Woodside’s North West shelf gas expansion which will emit a carbon bomb. See where I’m going here?? 🙃

Donal Trump is traumatising the entire world with his ego driven stupidity. I don’t blame him I blame the people who suck up to him on a daily basis. He personally is beyond help the Republican Party should be ashamed of themselves

I have no words.

University of Technology Sydney asked KPMG to analyse researchers by income generated and produce a master Excel list of productivity at the individual level as part of its $360m restructure.

A mysterious, brown foam appeared on a beach an hour south of Adelaide. It was just the beginning of a toxic algal bloom that has now grown to thousands of square kilometres in size, killing precious sea life in its wake. #Climate #environment Won't be the only place either.

Looks like Labor is about to approve the North West shelf gas expansion, which among bad news for the planet and WA energy costs is terrible for the nearby Murujuga rock art - which is so old, it has one of the first known depictions of the human face australiainstitute.org.au/post/woodsid...

It’s funny how the thing that’s made the Nats freak out is not their leader tearing up the Coalition agreement, but rather losing front bench privileges

Approving the North West Shelf, Woodside’s latest gas expansion in the Burrup Hub project is on Labor’s to do list next week. With the unprecedented flooding currently happening in NSW, a gas expansion project that emit 6 billion tonnes of carbon and have clearance to run for 45 years. It’s obscene.

Farmer from flood-devastated Taree interviewed on ABC TV this afternoon bemoaning lack of political support for what is a one in 500 year flood event. Admitted he is a National Party voter. Supports party that denies reality of climate change & has frustrated genuine emissions abatement 🤦🏻🤷🏼 #auspol

Wouldn’t it be fun to see the carbon offset industry get as angry at the fossil fuel industry as they get at scientists & environmentalists who call bullshit on ‘carbon neutral fossil fuels’ If we scrapped fossil fuel subsidies we could easily afford to pay landholders to store carbon #climate

'We sell carbon offsets because it raises money to do climate action' Weird how the carbon offsetting companies consistently refuse to disclose how much they keep as profits, and how much goes to actual climate action. www.somo.nl/carbon-offse...

Fine: Rome is burning McGovern: One of the previous Republican speakers got up and said Rome is burning but I hate to tell him but Republicans are in charge and Trump is your Caesar.

Add your name to the call to REJECT the North West Shelf✍️ nb.australiainstitute.org.au/reject_north...

This should be mandatory reading for all governments. Overshooting of 1.5 degrees will be catastrophic to the natural world and humanity. Every increment in global temperature brings us closer to irreversible impacts. Will the ALP be brave and shake off their addiction to their FF donors??

DEPORTING immigrants they don’t “like”, and IMPORTING immigrants they do “like” is all about replacing… 👋🏿 and 👋🏽 with 👋🏻 in the USA

If the Greens lost electoral support because of their principled stance on Israel’s genocide in Gaza, then that says more about the principles of Australian voters than it does about the Greens.

Don’t forget the feathers- white ones are appropriate.

Wednesday, May 21st, 2025 Today was pretty good, a couple of interesting things distracted me from an annoying start to the day. It’s really cold, still light rain, but heavy tomorrow. Still nothing as bad as those living near the Manning River. 🫂

‘I just want bread’ This elderly Palestinian man, Sameer, broke down in tears from extreme hunger caused by Israel’s blockade in Gaza. At least 1 in 5 Palestinians faces starvation in Gaza as Israel continues attacks.

True 🦋

At risk of being rude, have others noticed the extreme irony of the National Party (self declared ‘friend of farmers’) breaking up the coalition because they oppose Net Zero while Australia languishes under extreme floods in NSW and extreme drought everywhere else? No? Just me, then?

Don’t forget raining bombs down on far away places, not only are killing innocent people, it has direct consequences for us all Turns out it’s that far away And we have no idea of all the bombing done by combined “western nations” It needs to END for the 🌎

One can only hope that with their thumping majority, Labor use their political power to actually put forth courageous policies. With the ferocious weather events Australia is currently experiencing, it is imperative that we immediately transition away from coal and gas. This is priority No. 1!!!
