Israel is a terrorist state. If Australia had any credibility it would cease all diplomatic ties with them and expel their ambassador.

Look at the Greens+Labour vote in Gorton and Denton and a Reform win should never have been in play. 1st past the post is truly mad. Be grateful for the Aus electoral system. Etc. Not an original thought, not the main story here, but worth saying again and again. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The Greens have just beaten both Reform & Labour in a key UK by-election! With a bold vision of standing up for everyday working people and making billionaires & big corporations pay their share, the Greens can take on the big corporations and their right-wing cronies & win! 💚

The Greens absolutely smashed it not even close. The only two horse race was for 3rd place and Labour lost.

Australian taxpayers support folks who have more than two negatively geared properties! This is nuts. If you think it’s ok for some people to hoard property during a housing crisis you’re part of the problem.

You don't have to be an Einstein to figure this out. But... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Why_Soc...

Why are Americans so stupid?

This gentleman would require a current driver's licence to ride that in Queensland if the idiotic recommendations of the parliamentary inquiry into emobility are accepted.

Queensland proposes to be the 2nd government on earth to require a drivers licence to ride a bicycle (pedal assisted ebike). Finally North Korea is not alone.... the dumbest idea I've ever heard. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

If tRuMp ToWeR Gold Coast gets approved it is everyone's moral duty to dox and shame everyone involved with building it.

In Brisbane City Council there are various committees. Like City Planning. These committee meetings last 30-odd minutes once a week, and the first half is taken up by a presentation. City Planning is hearing about 1 particular DA today, at 209 Kangaroo Gully Rd (how Australian is that name).

An invitee to the Advance conference said that Angela Merkel “did more damage to the fabric of her country than the Nazis did, than Hitler did, 80 years ago.” Because immigration, apparently. Can’t believe there are sections of the local Jewish community that support this organisation.

Trump sending American Healthcare to Greenland is on par with giving indigenous people blankets with small pox.

Nobody cares about the world club challenge anyway #wcc

Broncos just setting the game up as they like it. Down by 12. #wcc

This serves exactly the same function as Pauline Hanson, except it actually kept my store bought naan bread fresh, providing more societal good than Hanson has in her 71 years of pathetic life

I almost feel sorry for this LNP MP based in the Lockyer Valley in Queensland. Trying to do a bit of myth and fear busting, but just look at the engagements... 1.8k comments and overwhelming angry reacts. So much bullshit in the comments too. Lots of butthurt Christian fundies.

Today Pauline Hanson is attacking Muslims while defending tax breaks like the Capital Gains Tax discount: a policy that overwhelmingly benefits the top 1% and does nothing for people struggling with rent or trying to buy their first home.

Because I fell behind my 30km a day average cycling target for February thanks to the wet weather, I knocked out nearly 70km yesterday. Legs feel it a little today!

I don't wish death on anyone, but there are obituaries i look forward to not bothering to read

Think this tyre needed replacing? Alsp, how nice is a freshly cleaned and wax dipped chain?

Not a great start to the series here. Aussies need to get Mandana and Verma out cheaply if they're any chance. #AUSWvINDW

Next time you hear someone ask how will the govt pay for <insert new spending on services> just remember right now the richest 10% get $27.5bn in tax breaks on just super, and negative gearing and the capital gains discount on housing www.theguardian.com/business/gro...

Australia failing spectacularly against Zimbabwe. ##T20WorldCup

Hanson had the nerve to say Australians want solutions, not motherhood statements. In 30 years, has she EVER offered a solution? EVER?

Today, under the cover of the Liberals tearing each other down, Labor has approved another coal mine extension. Extending Middlemount to 2044 means Labor has now approved 35 fossil fuel projects. In the middle of the climate crisis, they're approving more coal & gas.

Meanwhile, Labor are being exactly what we’ve come to expect them to be 😡 #AusPol

This is so Australia. Tree fell on a motorway on ramp. Cleared very quickly... and the rubbish left completely blocking the adjacent cycle path. Tell me you don't give a shit about anyone not in a car without telling me... wouldn't happen under @markbaileymp.bsky.social

Football training for the 17yo: CANCELLED. Fuck i love cancel culture.

Liberal Party Senator James Paterson has resigned from shadow cabinet. Highlights of his press conference. #auspol #LibSpill #LNP

Australia is a pretty ordinary T20 team #T20WorldCup

This is the problem nationally with Australian cities trying to build out fit for purpose cycling infrastructure. Until the car-first brains are pushed out of transport departments and local governments, our cities will continue to languish @brenttoderian.bsky.social @ohtheurbanity.bsky.social

Looking up some guitar chords for no reason...

SpaceX shifts focus from something that it will never do on Mars to something it will never do on the Moon.

We knew from the moment we heard it that “social cohesion” would be one of those Orwellian terms which would be used to cover all manner of state sanctioned abuse and deprivation of civic freedoms. It fuels the very unrest it pretends to seek to quell.

"Social cohesion is a scam, a strategy employed by the powerful to delegitimise and suppress the voices of the less powerful... If you are othered by powerful groups, you become the victim of cohesion, not the beneficiary; what you get from social cohesion is a punch from an armed official."

What a POS. Who could even THINK of such a thing?? And if you feel baited by people quietly praying then you have something wrong with you.

Do you reckon if a bunch of Iranian Australians were attacked that the Prime Minister would invite "their head of state" here to console them?

If they want to see "their head of state" so badly they can go to Israel
