It’s back

The message the Liberal party heard from the Dutton implosion last election was the one they always hear: “need more racism”

Really? Are we doing this?

Rinse and repeat.

A woman doing doordash to pay for husband's cancer treatment. And Trump also hoping she is a bigot.

youtu.be/iqgaX_skm8w?... They might need “The Bishop” !

Gee I wonder how a Trumpesque policy by the Libs will go. If only we had a recent example of an election to test this against www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The VIC Gov has approved destruction of rare snow gums on the summit of Mt Macedon so people can get a view of Melbourne. Take action here and help to #SaveMacedonSnowGums www.melbournefoe.org.au/save_mt_mace...

I’m not sure it has broken through to the general public that the president is a megalomaniac crazy person. Hopefully posts like this help.

Hey! Trump has 34 felony convictions, a civil judgment for rape, and countless other crimes he gets away with because the GOP congress lets him. The pope has none of that. You bet the pope is weak on crime!

Note that Trump’s blockade due to begin on Taco Tuesday …

Immediately recalled “The Bishop” skit from #MontyPython

Calling the pope ‘weak on crime’ is the best. More priests on the beat.

So #Trump going absolutely blind with rage at #Pope Leo and the Catholic Church reminded of a classic skit from the legendary Aussie comedy tv show, "The Gillies Report" ..... that none other than @wendyharmer.bsky.social starred in. 🤣 Will the "Vatican Hit Man" make an appearance after this? 😂

They have just started to destroy Snow Gums on Mt Macedon in order to “restore” historic views of Melbourne from the Memorial Cross on the top of the mountain. Only 21ha of Montane Grassy Woodland remains in central & western VIC! themountainjournal.com/2025/08/21/p...

"The report said that although profits were taxed at a higher rate, the Norwegian government also took on project and development risk via direct equity holdings in gas projects." Cool, better nationalise the industry then.

You think you’ve closed the strait of Hormuz? Hah. Hold my cheeseburger …

Melbourne comedy festival in full swing.

Happy for the Hungarians but also a momentous day for people who enjoy the thought of sad Tony Abbott

We’ve now decisively reached an emperor has no clothes moment. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Solutions that accrue benefits to those with existing capital are socially unjust. Worse, EVs reward single family dwellings, which increases spawl, car dependency, etc. We do need to think harder about how best to drive decarbonisation transition. Sorry to go off topic!

Do you know how little girls tend to develop empathy earlier? BY BEING IMMERSED IN A WHOLE LOT OF STORIES THAT THEY CAN’T SEE THEMSELVES IN. Seeing yourself is fine but you should also learn to see OTHER PEOPLE, little boys shouldn’t be raised in front of a distorted fun house mirror.

I guess after all we’re the country where a sizeable proportion of the population were/are convinced EVs would destroy the weekend. So there’s that.

"France will double state support to 10 billion euros ($12 billion) a year through to 2030 to help its switch to electricity from oil and gas and their derivative ​fuels [...] Measures including boosting the use of ​electric vehicles and modernising home heating..."

Trump got rid of the professional, career military people who would have advised him against attacking Iran b/c it was Middle East 101 that - *despite* America's vast military power - Iran still had the capability to shut down the Strait of Hormuz & would def. do it if we attacked them.

I'm sorry, but this woman posting photos of her dog at a religious event in Spain and then having to frantically clarify a few days later at their "supersausage_charlie" Instagram account is something out of a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode.

Rare image of a stork delivering a baby!

I haven’t bothered to look at Bolt for years. How reassuring to see he’s still the king of idiot takes …

This is just so sad and awful. Guardian - Mass drowning of chicks puts emperor penguins at risk of extinction Record low levels of Antarctic sea ice is having grim consequences for penguins yet to grow waterproof feathers

Some people are in favour of war crimes and ya gotta hear both sides.

One of those hard to get things done days :)

I sometimes wonder if our culture is still capable of thought … www.instagram.com/reel/DW7WAuI...

Ve are sending people to a meeting in Pakistan with the Persians.

And when that becomes problematic, add an additional layer to clip the ticket on the financial oversight of the intermediaries. And when that becomes problematic, add an additional layer to clip the ticket on coalface auditing, and when that becomes problematic, add...... etc

The problem with the NDIS - and there is a problem - is the same one Australia always faces. If you let small businesses exploit the public purse, they'll exploit it mercilessly (remember pink batts or any one of a 100 such programs). The key is in the system design, not the auditing of it.

Show me a worse job than grubbing out little star pickets …

Remarkable how many management teams in firms based on knowledge work (of some form) are having to go “Full HR” to try and get people to use this stuff. You’d think it might give them pause about actual efficacy but who am I kidding.

Listen to Jon. His advice remains true.

I’m not even religious, but even I’m offended when this shit gets called a ‘church’. Call it what it is: a weirdo doomsday cult. Waco in polo shirts.
