A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

A new FOI into the Deloitte nonsense has revealed: -there were MORE AI errors in the Deloitte report than previously admitted -DEWR knew about this for weeks & did nothing -DEWR's Secretary lied in Estimates, when saying Deloitte never apologised to her archive.is/F8qtG#select...

Something really remarkable from the centre-right BTI-bro Gates-takes is that none of them want to acknowledge Gates flat-out fabricated the core, load-bearing example he uses for the entire thesis of his blog post. That isn't a 'bad opinion', that is extremely serious malpractice and fraud

i had chronic shoulder pain for most of my 20s and 30s after getting beaten with batons and thrown to the ground by Boston Police as a teenage protester so I can genuinely understand the trauma and suffering that Federal officer went through having to smell mustard and onions, really awful stuff man

Nancy Pelosi’s trades over the years have been so good that a startup was created to allow investors to directly mirror her portfolio.

Long-exposure shots of the Tasmanian night sky tend to look pretty cool even when the aurora isn't happening.

Is the paper peer-reviewed, has it been published, or even accepted for publication at any relevant research journal? No. Not at all. Of course not. What flavour of misinformation are we peddling here? What propaganda move shall we call this, @economist.com?

Tasmania once criminalised people for being gay or for cross-dressing. Yesterday Tasmania's Parliament finally passed laws to erase those convictions and offer redress for the harm caused. This is justice decades overdue.

#BREAKING 🚨 FOI documents show AI-tainted Deloitte report was 'much worse' than previously thought (by YOU?) or disclosed. It appears DEWR Secretary Natalie James may have misled the Senate in relation to the conduct of her previous employer. ✍️ @paulkarp.bsky.social www.afr.com/politics/ai-...

Pretending that fossil fuels can be harmless is 100x worse than denying climate science. Not sure I've seen anything that lay it out with such efficient density as this @danrepacholimp.bsky.social speech. I lay it all out at @crikey.com.au for you -->> www.crikey.com.au/2025/11/06/n...

I am watching a TV documentary about sports gambling addiction. The show went to commercial, and during the break there were two ads from online betting apps.

#WBBL11 begins this weekend!

Obviously it's sad when historic #taxidermy cracks, but it can show you how these specimens were converted from flat, treated skins to stand "alive" again. Here, the crack in this rhino at @nhmwien.bsky.social reveals an inner cage of willow beams. 🦏

The whole of the internet is now run on the things that would have not made it past your email junk filter 20 years ago.

no srsly if your feed feels off check out this section. some massive overreaching in the filters going on here despite the fact my base settings are extremely permissive 💀

In Icelandic we have 'Ókind' for monster. But the translation is un-sheep. So everything not a sheep is dangerous.

Y'all ever notice how nobody can ever actually point to any *specific thing* that Mamdani *actually said* that was antisemitic, and how people are just baldly asserting it anyway

guys I’m sorry but have you looked through Getty images for yesterday 💀

Incredible that we spent so long asking for a proper NACC and they're like 'we can do better than that, we can have a useless NACC but also a guy whose one job is investigating Paul Brereton conflicts of interest'

Wow, what the hell is this crap? This should all be opt-in only.

The fact that rudeness is auto set to hide, but intolerance is set to warn is a GIGANTIC red flag

Yeah, this was set to "Hide" in my settings. Fuck right off with that.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

He'll be reemployed as a lobbyist for Raytheon et al within days.

Dear Bill Gates, If Trump loves your climate statement and you say he misunderstood it, and if climate scientists don't like your climate statement and you say they also misunderstood it, maybe the problem is your #climate statement.

We concur with the members of this jury that tossing a sandwich at a federal agent in Washington, DC should not be treated as criminal activity.

Gaming regulator announces temporary halt on accepting bribes www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...

The data breaches and law suits to come are simply going to be titanic. A fucking donkey could see this ban is a nightmare waiting to happen but our greedy, malevolently incompetent politicians have yet to see a failure too daunting for them to embrace wholeheartedly.

Probably because the ban has absolutely nothing to do with child safety whatsoever, it is about limiting and controlling access to information for young people, as well as slowly forcing everyone to adopt a digital ID. The whole thing is an absurd farce that’s going to fail in spectacular fashion.
