Just so we're blaringly clear - Fuck AI. Fuck having to second guess the art you see and want to enjoy, fuck the insidious way they're attempting to normalize it, fuck the way it feels like it has crept into every facet of existence, fuck the theft, the deceit and the problems it causes.

I want a society where we care less about the mental health of a man who is a convicted rapist & more about the health, well - being & safety of the woman who is actual victim of the rape. They should be our priority not protecting the reputation of a perpetrator.

*poisons the atmosphere with coal* “LET THEM BE KIDS!”

Knitting Nannas supporting Wiradyuri heritage protection - at Section 10 hearing brought by Regis Resources against the Minister in Sydney Federal Court today. Yindyamurra, respect land water and elders. Protect BilaBula.

Come show support for Wiradjuri elders tomorrow in Sydney. Nannas will meet outside the court at 9.30am.

Big hugs for Nanna Alex who has just made it back to the beach after her arrest. She’s here with @risingtideaus.bsky.social and says she decided to take direct action to stop the coal ships because as a Professor of Public Health she knows the risks. Wake up #auspol #RisingTide #ClimateAction

Keystone cops

How many Nannas does it take to stop a coal ship? A: a lot less than this. #RisingTide #ClimateAction

Newcastle Port now closed to coal ships! Wish we had drone footage of 5 Nannas in a tinny breaching 100m exclusion zone in an ‘exciting back &forth with police boats’. (Observers report). No arrests. Harbour authorities closed the port to coal ships. @risingtideaus.bsky.social

The joy of collecrive action... thisnis what democracy looks like @risingtideaus.bsky.social @knitnannassyd.bsky.social

👎 indeed. do they really think if we can't see it, it doesn't count? Science people! See you soon Nanna-sistas!

“Nannas have a simple message for Prime Minister Albanese and Environment Minister Murray Watt this summer: Slip, Slap, Slop: Slip on your man-pants, Slap down the fossil fuel industry, and Slop the red ink all over their applications”. knittingnannas.org/2025/11/26/m...

Minister Watt really is making a mockery of this critically important environmental law reform. If he wanted, he could act on the advice of scientists and experts, and amend Labor's bills, and the Greens would agree to support them. Summon the courage, Murray. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

This little hand in mine. This little stink bug we found - its the little things that matter. But also big things like clean air, water and earth. Of stopping the destruction being wrought by big gas & coal. That's why I am rising up this weekend. Join me! @risingtideaus.bsky.social

Speak up. Sign Up. Rise Up! We need our collective hearts AND action.

On this day in 2024 Nannas were outraged at the NSW Labor governments disregard for our fundamental democratic right to protest by attempting to stop @risingtideaus.bsky.social coal port blockade. Now they’re at it again. We have news for @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social - our t-shirts are packed so🖕

Wallabies sponsored by Santos lose all matches in European Tour. First time in 67 years. Karma. Serves them right. Not a gas led recovery.

And what does the science say? It is clear. We must phase out fossil fuels not for the sake of the planet, but to ensure a livable future for us all. And "all" includes the inhabitants of those countries who prevented this phrase from being included in the final agreement.

Call from COP30 in Brazil from Antonio Guiteres: ‘Every voice matters. Yours has never been more important. If you want bolder climate action now is the time to make yours count.’

The idea *suppliers* of fossil fuels are neutral meeters-of-demand remains one of the worst lies Their job is not just digging up fossil fuels: their job is bullying, pushing, fighting, lying and lobbying to ensure fossil fuels get burned as much as possible www.rigzone.com/news/wire/ch...

One tree, countless homes. #ThickTrunkTuesday on Dja Dja Wurrung Country. 🌳 River Red Gum (Eucalyptus camaldulensis) #LoveAGum #australiannature #treeoftheday

Over 90 per cent of these woodlands have been cleared for grazing sheep and cattle, and logging knittingnannas.org/2025/10/26/s...

🧶👵 protest the introduction of new NSW Planning laws at NSW Parliament House today. The laws are meant to fast track housing but will allow the Minister to approve projects without oversight - even by local councils. A 🎁 4 developers at the expense of our environment. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

Happy #ThickTrunkTuesday, everybody. This gorgeous big River Red Gum (Eucalyptus camaldulensis) shrouded in mist was photographed by @treeside.bsky.social‬ near Mount Pleasant, South Australia. Show us your big gums! Tag @eucalyptaus to feature on a future #ThickTrunkTuesday!

Scitech (WA Science Museum) is sponsored by a few fossil fuel companies. Including Woodside who provide "free" access to STEM club for kids. Free = access to educational opportunities in exchange for promoting Woodside. The cost to students is the loss of a liveable planet. Good deal kids?

New Nanna News

This week i went to a graduation ceremony, in western Sydney. I taught this gorgeous young adults when they were 10. It was an absolutely glorious celebration of the transformative power of public education, of diversity and of outstanding, resilient young people. #nswtf #publiceducation 🧵

This is an excellent article on the idiocy of Australia continuing to be the third biggest petrostate and how this is not even a positive in bald economic terms. A great myth buster michaelwest.com.au/climate-risk...

Icymi @albomp.bsky.social @senatorwong.bsky.social, Chris Sidoti—member, UN Independent Int'l Commission of Inquiry on the oPt—has prepared a list of things you can do today &/or start work on today to meet your obligations under int'l law regarding Israel's Palestinian genocide. Hop to it. #auspol

The 70's were cool (er). Lets get on that and make a bold move on climate targets. Step up! @albomp.bsky.social

The @knitnannassyd.bsky.social had an important message for the Prime Minister- that the EPBC is about PROTECTION of the environment, not a nifty acronym to throw around. But you weren't there?!

On a day when the Aussie gov own climate risk report predicts more deaths from extreme heat, millions facing flood and fire, & no more insurance us Knitting Nannas (and Albo’s dog Toto) will be keeping the pressure on. @albomp.bsky.social Join us wherever!

Unlike our PM, we’ve got the right shirt on: Save Scott Reef! Don’t miss the stunning documentary Corals Last Stand

Shame. Shame. Such a terrible decison. I am shattered by this today.

This is hot off the press as Nanna Eury is at the Macquarie Marshes. knittingnannas.org/2025/09/10/w...

The formidable 🧶 Nanna Kathy. After seeing the impact of CSG mining this farm girl was transformed into a greenie superhero “If we don’t engage in politics, we have no right to complain, or to expect change. People power changes governments.” womensagenda.com.au/latest/from-...

I endorse every word of this. As a public servant in Commonwealth Ed and later NT education i witnessed all these steps. Labor drank the coolaid of competition logic but it also cowtowed to a viscious catholic ed regime determined to keep its wealthy base johnmenadue.com/post/2025/08...

Missed International Dog Day, but its ok because this queen knows it is dog day, eveyday #internationaldogday

Nanna Dom and Helen are true warrior-Nannas. Indefatigable in their advicacy for clean water, air and earth for the kids!

My goodness theres no rest for Nannas! Here we are on the hunt outside NSW Parliament House watching for wayward MP’s who won’t listen to the science nor do their job of planning for a future without coal and gas. Don’t they know we’d rather be knitting?! 🧶 knittingnannas.org/2025/08/12/n...

It’s time to quit AUKUS. There is no upside. It’s ALL downside. Why are our politicians on both sides pushing this expensive, toxic idiocy?

Labor party members don’t want #AUKUS Most Australians don’t want AUKUS. Even the Trump regime doesn’t seem keen. The only real enthusiasts are the defence establishment, and weapons company consultants on the gravy train (including a number of ex-ministers). Time to #DitchAUKUS. #auspol
