www.parliament.wa.gov.au/Parliament/c... The WA inquiry into e-rideables has been tabled. It's pleasing to see the report has many sensible recommendations and respects the amazing good they can do; it's not calling for bans, and recommends better regulation of faster bikes.

youtu.be/JNBqkjpjNAw I reckon electrification would fix a lot of this hey...

They were 8 and 11 years old

And just like Madeleine's post below, it's same for EVs - some ICE drivers are enraged at the growing popularity of EVs, despite knowing they can keep driving diesel cars if they really want. They know they're wrong, they know they will be outcasts, and they know how they treat outcasts.

This explains something that has always mystified me about drivers who rail against bike lanes and transit. Why WOULDN'T you want people to have options not to drive? It would make your own driving better! But they don't just want good traffic, they want to reinforce the NORM of driving

Watching 7.30 and have to laugh when farmers say they're worried about the plants and animals impacted by transmission towers, without a moment's pause on the fact their very farm exists because most of those plants and animals were disposed of...

I don't share food photos. It's just not cool when people are being starved (and also cause its a bit gauche) but I do like to share my garden harvests. In part because I'm proud of my effortd, but also to give hope for a future where food, and the capacity to grow it, is in abundance.

NEW 🇵🇸 A single factory and state-owned company in Poland is responsible for supplying 90% of the TNT for Israel’s bombs, reveal Palestinian Youth Movement, Shadow World Investigations, People’s Embargo for Palestine and the Movement Research Unit. 🔗 Read more online.

This is one of the most no-brainer decisions anyone in the bulk rail industry can make. Of course it's much easier when you own the tracks and sidings, and haul loaded wagons downhill and empty wagons up, but this will be a huge gain in efficiency.

I'm flying to Melbourne this evening for the AEVA national conference on Thursday, and Everything Electric on Saturday, talking with Jack about electric two-wheelers: au.everythingelectric.show/vic/giga-the.... Hope to catch some folks there!

www.motogp.com/en/news/2025... Well fuck. One of the most competitive motorcycle racing series in the world, being dropped because of a lack of fan support and low sales of performance electric bikes. On that basis we should probably drop Moto3.

Garlic harvest! #gardening And some rather old but entirely edible carrots.

www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11... My unpopular opinion? Tiny homes are expensive trailer homes which avoids the problem. They are a bandage solution to a systemic problem - our collective failure to build solid, high-density, multi-story homes.

Despite the ceasefire, Israel’s attacks on Gaza and severe restrictions on aid leave Palestinians struggling to survive aje.io/iwge48

“Why should our generation be banned from social media, when it is your generation that can’t tell the difference between truth and lies, and caused all this mess in the first place?” Anon kid.

Chris Sidoti is correct legally and morally. But as usual, the Australian political and media establishment continues to ignore that sound advice. #GazaGenocide #auspol

Watched Kamala Harris interview on ABC 7.30. Dems haven't learned a thing.

Dear USA Bluesky. It's time to remove your government. We know they hate truth, consistency, human rights and due process. We've seen enough videos of people being kidnapped, interviews with fascists being fascist. They won't stop until they are stopped. The only thing left to do is fight back.

We underestimate 63-year-old white male know-it-alls at our peril. He's the reason EV sales are slow in Australia. He's the reason we don't have transmission lines or large scale renewable developments. And it's not because he fundamentally opposes them. He *just hates* being wrong. #energysky, #EV

Dr Assal Rad— "This story is getting barely any media coverage, which is why Israel returned the bodies with signs of torture. "Didn’t even try to cover it up because they knew they didn’t have to."

You get the feeling the IDF just loves killing when you read stories like this.

I'm off to welcome the reopening of the line to Byford this morning. A rail corridor which has been out of action for a long time while improvements were made. Apropos of nothing, the government is seeking tenders on a freeway expansion. www.wa.gov.au/government/m...

My hot take is that if does not actually matter to Palestine, or to any Indigenous population, what DNA tests show. I'm obviously not an Indigenous person but if my DNA showed I was 96% donkey and 4% tardigrade, it still wouldn't be okay to kill me and take my house.

If you're going to need a car, make it electric, and make it small. You can't tell me with a straight face that EVs are too expensive any more.

This is the main issue I have with so much of the coverage around e-bikes. It's not that there aren't legitimate issues. But there is a panic around e-bikes and crickets regarding the daily toll of cars. And that's because the harm of cars is just accepted. It's baked into our society.

How can I convince a well-meaning, but AI-obsessed volunteer that a 30-page Gemini-generated facsimile of a submission is of *substantially* lower value than a 3-page human-written submission to a government inquiry? I can only assume it's because they're not *expecting* someone to read it?

They tried to erase Palestine, but the world has become Palestine. The outrage is global. The world is rising against genocide. Thank you Amsterdam.

This is the Ad that #Newscorpse initially pulled despite that it was already paid for by the Jewish Council of Australia. #Newscorpse deny they pulled it, saying it was delayed due to internal processes. Sounds like BS, I’m pretty sure they don’t want ppl to see it. Plz share.

Shame on America!

I have never been more certain that we're hurtling towards another world war. And my government is not backing the good guys.

I’ve managed to put together a small budget of about 12,000 shekels (around $3,600) to buy a tent, cover transportation, and set up a tiny bathroom—just so I can have a place to live, even if it’s on the street 🥹 Every bit of support truly makes a difference ❤️ chuffed.org/project/help...

Dr Bianca, an extraordinary woman - thank you for your bravery and sacrifice. Australia’s @albomp.bsky.social and govt must act. Protect your citizens, protect the citizens dying of starvation and gen0c1de in Gaza! What kind of people are we?

I've seen ABC refer to the Nazi rallies as "anti mass immigration rallies" over and over, exactly what Nazis want labelled as, legitimising them. In contrast, not once have I heard the Palestine rallies called anti-genocide or anti-colonial. I wonder what that's about 🙄

Another Gaza resident in need of direct support. Please give to as many of these as you can; it reaches them directly. @mommunism.bsky.social

AI is cancer. Expunge it from your lives at every opportunity. I say this as a scholar, teacher and community member. It's not doing any good; it's only making us so dumb, we can't see how dumb it's making us. I'm watching it take minds like a fentanyl epidemic...
