I know many of you looking forward to the senate estimate session today with the NACC inspector - another full day demanding accountability from this Government!

Colour me shocked 🤬 #ItsAFeckinEmergency

If you're wondering how the recently resigned #NACC Commissioner, Paul Brereton, spent his time in his $800,000 p.a job, at least some of it was dedicated to writing to the Inspector General about some individual called, Ronni Salt's, twitter activities. Seriously - I kid you not #auspol

🌱 💡Welsh scientists created fully biodegradable plastic from seaweed (alginate) for food packaging. Published in Algal Research. Could replace fossil-fuel plastic films making up 1/3 of global plastic production. nation.cymru/news/welsh-r...

Political message or the humanitarian aid - which one? Both those things can be true at the same time. I think Henderson should think about hanging up her hat. abc 7.30 is getting worse by the day. #abc730 #auspol

Here's a thought Sarah, if you wanted medical records ask for them prior to the guest attending the interview. FFS, it's not just one person kidnapped by Israel stating brutality. #abc730IsScrapingTheBottonOfTheBarrel #auspol

Nationalise it.

It's just gone half 5 and already I feel I need my 8 hours 😒 Holding out for as long as possible so I don't wake up at 3 am.

There is *a lot* to criticise Vic Labor for, but there's no doubt at all that they have put the hard yards in with the energy transition. Outcomes like this are a result of a lot of hard work, and we will not see them continue if they lose November's poll.

Sad news. He's left a very grateful nation.

Paul Brereton resignation statement: "Over the last three years, much progress has been made in pursuit of our mission of enhanced integrity in the Commonwealth public sector". Can you give us an example, Paul? Just one, teeny tiny example? Asking for 450,000 Robodebt victims. #auspol

Yikes! Could be good news.

Medicare admits a mistake. It sends an ex's mail to my house where he's never lived: refuses to fix it without a police report of assault. Which I'm not in fear of. Only he can change it - & if he asks they will tell him my address. WTF. A terrifying risk for some women. @markbutlermp.bsky.social

🧵 If you're worried right now - you should be. If you're wondering what you can do - you should be. None of us can do everything. But we can all do something. Here's something you can do today... #auspol

An Irish activist, who was one of hundreds of flotilla protesters detained by Israeli authorities this week, has described where they were held as a "horror of a concentration camp"

Just a medieval text talking about using a seat cover and pillow on the toilet and also provide fabric to wipe with and water to clean afterwards... From the Book of Nurture , written by John Russell, usher to the duke of Gloucester, in the 14th century:

Horrific.

Yep.

Amazing!

Looks like old mate has himself in a pickle yet again 🤦‍♀️ www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05...

Here's @boganintel.bsky.social. "As Aussie activists are brutalised, 'No one left behind' is a just a slogan for Albanese"

Exactly this 👇👇👇👇

If you've recently changed address it's a good time to remember to update your electoral details. Never know when there might be a by-election, especially in Queensland. Quick & easy. #qldpol www.aec.gov.au

I suddenly have bad neighbours. New people moved in across the road and they're giving me anxiety. It's banging all day and night and it's loud. In 26 years I've never had bad neighbours. This isn't nice.

Hey @albomp.bsky.social & @senatorwong.bsky.social Singed synagogue door, you expelled Iranian ambassador. Israel kidnaps, illegally detains & harms 11 Australians, and their ambassador’s given a ‘stern talking to’🙄 Double standard, bigoted, shitfuckery is clear & disgusting! #Auspol

Me, upon being reliable informed that Great Uncle Bulgaria won the #Eurovision.

I cannot fathom the benefit a local small business like this one thinks it's going to gain posting this slop. The bakery is in one of the safest labor seats in the country. The seat has never been anything other than labor so why would you piss your customers off with this crap? It's bizarre

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

WTF fined only $30k. Just yuck.

In the process of demolishing every single public housing tower, Homes Victoria evicted a family, offered them a home that was boarded up, and another home that was infested with mice and cockroaches, then said oh you’re no longer public housing tenants now coz u said no so fuck you I guess

This is important — Being able to identify hoaxes, avoid scams, and debunk propaganda is a civic skill required in today's information society. That's why curriculum for students in Finland includes media literacy lessons aimed at safeguarding a precious resource: the truth. #UrbanTruth

I'm very thankful for the PBS today, I've got all the aches and pains so out comes the celebrex. The foot bone's connected to the leg bone The leg bone's connected to the knee bone The knee bone's connected to the thigh bone and all those bones are screaming at me 😳 #MSIsThePits

I made a trip to my local shopping centre today. It's huge but only good for Aldi and JB Hifi except for today. The moment I walked in they were blasting The Cure and I knew I was exactly where I was meant to be in that moment. So far that's the nicest thing to happen today. #NiceThings

For Sunrise viewers who couldn’t hear Tanya Plibersek over Nat Barr & Barnaby Joyce’s constant interruptions, what she said was “Those who work for a living should not get taxed more on their wages than ppl who are living on their assets”✅ Hard to argue with that. #auspol

Except they have with the cancellation of USAID.

Treasury released a paper in late 2021 which modelled the lifetime fiscal impact of our permanent migration program. “Where migrants pay more in taxes than they receive in government services, it benefits the incumbent Australian population” #dumbnuts #auspol #dogwhistles

Tomorrow on The Sunday Shot, @instanterudite.bsky.social and @davemilbo.bsky.social are joined by @grogsgamut.bsky.social, Kalila Welch and @bluntshovels.bsky.social discussing the budget and the cuts to the NDIS. Check it out on Youtube or your podcast app of choice.

This exchange raises the broader question: Why has the royal commission, Federal & State govts, universities and other institutions uncritically accepted the IHRA definition? Especially when the principal author has warned it would be weaponized to suppress dissent. www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

Matt Doran: “They are chanting some pretty vile, racist slogans. Things like "death to the Arabs" and “may your villages burn". “You can see some of the people who are here, they're more interested in trying to hide how they’re behaving than actually trying to justify their behaviour.”

Imagine getting this email on a Friday afternoon. I look forward to the "story". #womenwhowin
