Have a quiet think. Let it be a guiding lesson for you Whatever regretful comments you may have made in your life, whatever actions you wish you could take back, let your benchmark for the lowest of the low be using the deaths of 15 people for the relaunch of your political career

If anyone else gets asked by social media platforms to verify their age using a facial scan....um, this is the ONE time you want a wrinkle to turn up lest you be mistaken for 16! But thank you @bsky.app — what a compliment !

I am no fan of Netanyahu or genocide, or terrorists anywhere. But Jenny your ignorance of history shows. Antisemitism is a unique, profound and violent form of racism that goes back to antiquity: thousands of years. This is why it’s not just about current politics or garden variety racism — also bad

Josh Frydenberg allowed #LNP to branch stack a number of extreme cookers in the Liberal party who've normalised fascist & racist rhetoric giving the neonazis permission to crawl out of the sewers! Why don't you ask him why he failed to stop the rise of neonazis in AU when he was in govt! #auspol

Frydenberg has every right to speak out as a private citizen but he should recall the policies of his own PM Scott Morrison when he un-did hate speech laws to cater to Jones, Murdoch etc. Where was Frydenberg then? We should be thinking of victims not scoring points #auspol

While we are heaping anger on Labor for antisemitism’s rise, as they so deserve, has everyone forgotten the seeds of hatred sewn when the LNP loosened hate speech laws under the guise of “freedom”? This must be a bipartisan responsibility so that doesn’t happen every time we go to the ballot #auspol

Horrible news about Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele. Spinal Tap was Reiner's feature film directorial debut, and then he ripped off a stunning run

Folks we are releasing an AWESOME #book - a memoir by Greg Weight, member of The Yellow House and beyond. Take a romp down through Sydney’s bohemian art scene.

Was just discussing today that one of my favourite unexpected delights about BlueSky is the amount of diverse, open-minded, intelligent, well-read, fascinating Americans on here After years of enduring red-neck insufferables and deplorables on the bird site, it's reassuring to meet the other half

Daughter went to Toronto for a week for work and was so excited. But what she discovered were extremely polite Canadians struggling with an economy in the shit thanks to T-tariffs, A LOT of open drug consumption on the streets and bad food. Disappointed & sad — North America is struggling #auspol

something under discussed is the fact that white house renovations are currently being spearheaded by someone with famously bad interior design taste

I am so proud of my brother for standing up to the ongoing injustice and bullying levelled by the church, and other institutions who seek to avoid financial and moral accountability for their crimes. It has not been easy for him to go public, a survivor of abuse often suffers in silence. #auspol

In a country of abundant excess, even of junk food, this seems pretty sad. #america www.smh.com.au/world/north-...

Prince-no-more #Andrew is clueless, lacking in self awareness AND a liar but WHO on earth invites a pedofile to their own daughter’s party? A wolf to a playground of young people! More apparent than ever that pedofiles have some sick understanding between themselves and stick together. 🤮 #auspol

I’ve spent 4 hours wrestling control of my Dad’s laptop from scammers, deleting malware, multi anti virus apps etc. I spent the 90s building the NineMSN news product, but was HORRIFIED at what is now Bing. Pop ups and defaults SO confusing to an elderly person they don’t know what’s real. #auspol

Ooooops. Tech Council of Australia is making up shit saying AI companies won’t invest in Australia unless the government weakens our copyright laws and OpenAI has called them out. YAY #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The deafening silence of the male teachers at #Shore is an even more disturbing, despicable outcome. Where are they? Do they not have mothers, wives, sisters or daughters? And no, don’t come at me about public and private schools - this is a wide culture problem. Say Lily James’s name! #auspol

Heartbreaking story. Science tells us a lot but not always the full picture when some science is as-yet undiscovered. How awful for the families wrongly convicted of shaking babies #auspol www.smh.com.au/interactive/...

American living room furniture after Trump declares IKEA to be a terrorist organisation.

While I know the obsession with Jimmy Kimmel is important as is free speech… I am glad someone is talking about this. But also — Americans are going to die or become very sick without some of those meds. In a country of spiralling healthcare, where are the protests or trending hashtags???? #tariffs

IKEA kitchen cabinets are now a national security threat in America???? I suppose they are now on the same footing as a Kinder Surprise but not guns!

9.13 New York Time: Netanyahu speaking to an empty room at the U.N. Literally only the Israeli delegation is clapping. He continues to talk about 1200 Israelis affected by Oct 7 attack; which no one disputes. But doesn’t discuss the 35000+ innocent Palestinians he has killed since. 🙄

Interesting how many people criticise Albanese for a photo with Trump when they’re the same people to complain if Australia makes no effort to meet a foreign counterpart. It’s all part of a delicate dance to ensure AU is not a “target” of the US chaos. Wales is quite right! #auspol

well that escalated quickly

Pop science. My @smh @theage cartoon.

The Guardian, SMH et al would do well to hire Antoinette Lattouf now that she has been vindicated. And the ABC would do well to ask for a refund of directors fees from Ita Buttrose given such a basic mistake in employment law was breached by the ABC in large part due to her meddling. #auspol
