It’s a boy! Meet #Beren aka Banana 🍌 Originally, #BerenBanana was meant to be Abla’s protege but the universe had different plans. I can’t wait to see what’s in store! Welcome to the clan, handsome fella 💛

Reflecting pool. My @smh @theage cartoon.

This is why this outbreak really worries me. It's far further advanced before it being identified, which means way more cases yet to develop and transmission chains yet to be interrupted. For those who have closely followed previous Ebola outbreaks those are the exact ingredients for a big epidemic.

Just imagine the "I" in AIPAC stood for Iran. Imagine the American Iran Public Affairs Committee just spent record sums of money to defeat a congressman who exposed a paedophile ring that blackmailed US politicians. But it's fine when Israel does this...

I just Binge watched Dead Like Me (over a week or so) How is it possible it got better the second time around.. Another great series ended before it should have.

This has all been pretty stupid hey. I broke down some of the more hysterical language being thrown at Labor’s tax changes, and what the right really means when they treat the reforms as an "assault". Because when you’re accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression...

"one of the main proponents of the social media campaign, startup founder Frank Greeff, admitted that it favoured attention over accuracy." Always incredible how the rich/business/conservatives are allowed to lie and the media writes it up as a minor point www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

Experts have slammed the AI-Albo social media campaign against CGT changes as “rubbish” saying the changes are actually “important”💥 Adelaide Miller reveals even the organisers now admit they left out the truth “bcoz they wanted the post to go viral.” Utterly shameless. #auspol

In case you need any more motivation to hold the most corrupt "president" in U.S. history accountable. #Register&VOTE 🌊

"Over the last ten years, the population has increased by 16%, and the number of homes has increased by 19%." "The housing crisis wasn't caused by a drop in supply." @mattgrudnoff.bsky.social #auspol

Once again: Off the coast of Crete 600 miles off the coast of 🇮🇱 A humanitarian flotilla seized By fascist ‘military’ Over 100 activists kidnapped in international waters For seeking to break an illegal siege of Gaza 🇵🇸 Can anyone still deny 🇮🇱 is not a terrorist state? 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

At least six oil and gas companies kicked in $1m each to a fund operated by Australian Energy Producers (AEP) to fight a proposal for a new gas tax. The Prime Minister flew across the country to tell the resources sector in person it was dead. Here's me in @deepcutnews.bsky.social looking at why.

Collins submarines were meant to be retired this decade. But thanks to AUKUS, the Government is dropping $11 billion to try and keep them going decades longer, why? Because we are not getting the nuclear submarines for a decade if ever. $11 bn more washed down the AUKUS drain.

Oh no. Not that.

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket for free and share its content with everyone you know. Thanks. bit.ly/4a7l1TR

Here we go again. My @smh @theage.

The WA premier campaigned hard against a 25% tax on gas exports. You'd think he'd look at his state's own Budget Papers and see how little gas royalties the WA govt gets and how fast it is dropping thepoint.com.au/off-the-char...

Good. It means the budget policies are working. Housing should serve people, not speculation

This made me smile

Riiight. So it is "rare' for person to person spread, and it is 'very hard to catch' except when it's not. #IveHeardThisSomewhereBefore #SameBullshitDifferentDisease

"I just got back from Perth, they’re making their milestones. There’s a couple things they’re behind on … but all the production work there on the pier … they’re making their marks." This whole thing is about a Yank naval base in Perth, and always was.

A Budget Reply Speech from Dr. Rich Kahnt. #auspol #budget2026 #comedy #satire #ARationalFear

. @albomp.bsky.social has said today that @australiainstitute.org.au "needs to be fair dinkum" about gas taxes. Well he keeps saying the PRRT is ramping up. Guess what PM, your own budget papers show there is a ramp...but it ain't heading up. Fair dinkum, mate. Give the gas company spin a rest

In the 47th Parliament, I introduced a private member’s bill to abolish seismic testing. I’m pushing for it to end. Earlier this year, I welcomed NOPSEMA’s decision to reject a proposal for seismic blasting off Victoria’s southwest coast.

Australia’s plugin vehicle market hit 26.7% share in April 2026, with 25,087 plugin vehicles sold. That includes both BEVs and PHEVs, showing the disruption curve is steepening fast as electrification spreads across more segments of the market. #EVs

One of social media's new favourite thought games and what that tells us about ourselves: www.thenewdaily.com.au/finance/news...

“one person per new house built”. In Taylor’s imaginary world, everyone lives alone in their own house. And he is prime minister.

Just on the headlines around 'is this the end of the Howard era' (🙃) - I've been told Where it all went wrong is headed for a fifth reprint. You guys did that - and the little bit of change we look like seeing is you guys too. 🩷

Just build public housing. We shouldn't be offering corporate landlords incentives through the social security system to house people, the government should just build enough public housing (NOT "community" housing) for everyone who needs it. michaelwest.com.au/budget-boost...

It is a bit dated but things have only gotten worse since 2016. #Auspol #HousingCrisis theconversation.com/three-myths-...

On Budget night tonight, an exclusive group of Australia’s 1% will pay $110,000 to dine with Labor’s inner circle. The 1% pay a worker’s annual wage to sip champagne with the PM, while you read the news about NDIS cuts that pay for increased defence spending. It’s cooked.

Tim Wilson denies CGT discounts are tax breaks & quickly pivots to promoting his new data-harvesting site - asking ppl to sign up to fight a ‘tax raid’ on a benefit he won't admit exists. Franking Credits playbook is back. Same salesman, same grift, diff tax break🙄 #auspol

This again highlights the need for publishing electoral material that gives a false appearance of endorsement by an electoral authority to be specifically regulated and to be a very serious offence.

Help me justify quitting my job to my wife so I can just go through these tapes for the next 10 years

"Every gold mine pays a royalty for gold. But more than half of the gas we export is given away royalty-free." Add your name to the petition to fix Australia's gas export problem: https://theaus.in/fix_gas_export_problem

While UK Labor collapses the UK Greens are fighting back and winning. Decency, a belief that people want to be part of a good society that fairly shares the wealth, is how you fight the hard-right anti-immigration politics that threatens Australia too

Latest example of the documented result of what happens when supposed ‘centre left’ parties go to the right to try and appease conservatives rather than stand for something different - voters go even further rather than stick with the imitators

A little treat for your evenings: open.substack.com/pub/deanblun... This made me laugh a lot. The deposition transcript is incredible

We're locking in EV discounts for years to come.

71% of Australians are in favour of a 25% tax on gas exports. Not sure why the govt is scared @skyelark.bsky.social thepoint.com.au/off-the-char...
