"I’m an Australian, my family has been here since the dawn of time, that’s the end of it..." Apparently, "the dawn of time" was 140 years ago 😂😂 #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...

Oh look, ICE is copying literal Nazi recruiting propaganda again. The poster on the right is for the Volkssturm, the Nazi militia of older men and boys established during the final months of World War II.

Trump and Elon broke up

This is what happens when you put internet conspiracy theorists in charge of major government departments.

This is both embarrassing and hilarious at the same time. Let me guess, you then asked AI if Australians were wrong not voting for you and it said "you are absolutely correct", right? 🤣 #auspol

RFK Jr talking about the need for doctors to know how to treat measles for those who are unvaccinated. “Only very sick kids should die from measles.” No. They shouldn’t. That was the point of the vaccine. We eradicated the virus so children didn’t die. Sick & disabled kids are not expendable!

"These guidelines were written by almost-retired professors who never could have met these standards back in the 1980s, when all you needed for tenure was 1.5 publications and a bottle of scotch in your desk." buff.ly/TOh3MUc

We need similar measures in Australia.

One of the lessons of Liberal Party over my lifetime is that the next leader will be worse than you thought the last one was.

He's neither a scientist nor the opposition leader 🤣 #auspol #ausvotes25 #ausvotes2025

What a beautiful graph 😂😂 #auspol #ausvotes25 #ausvotes2025

This was The Guardian's headline yesterday. Turns out Dutton was spot on with his prediction of a 'surprise' 😁 #auspol #ausvotes25 #ausvotes2025

McGrath on ABC is a true piece of work. Cry harder.

It's that beautiful time of the night when we need to thank "the stable genius" for his contribution to our election 😂😂 #auspol #ausvotes25 #ausvotes2025

Turns out being a shit leader with no policies acumen and a terrible front bench is bad

The US government is currently reverse engineering medical technology to reintroduce cured diseases.

Love this response from Sally McManus. Going to university is not elitist. Getting educated and learning about the world is not elitist. Gaining skills that you contribute to society is not elitist. The Liberals’ anti-intellectualism anti-university “elitism” crap is totally Trumpist #DontRiskDutton

Hmm, apparently I am a Protemnodon!

Peter Dutton made a new election ad, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative. #auspol

On the day of LNP’s big $21 Billion Defence package, Shadow Def Minister Andrew Hastie craps his pants & declines #abc730 interview. Ferguson “He declined” So weak, obviously scared of having to explain his policy & of being grilled on his misogynistic views against women in the ADF

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative. A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

Crowded room. My @smh @theage cartoon.

Steve Kerr wore a Harvard basketball shirt after the Warriors’ win tonight: “Yes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

Trumpets, the gift that keeps on giving😂 #auspol #AusVotes25

"Propaganda during the 30s often showcased Hitler's private life in ways that softened his image. Stories depicted him playing with dogs, interacting with children & enjoying leisure activities. This made him seem a caring & gentle person, contrasting sharply with the realities of Nazi policies."

Image emerges of Jacinta Price wearing Maga cap – one day after she says Coalition will ‘make Australia great again’

We’re about 10 minutes away from one of them explaining their Sieg Heil was really a Roman salute.

the libs ditched the wholly unsuitable candidate for the seat of #whitlam yesterday… and replaced him with a #MAGA man! 🙄 #dutton is attracted to, not repulsed by #trump. reneweconomy.com.au/all-aboard-t...

Not surprised at all 😂

To the gross techno-fascist CEOS who stood at Trump's inauguration and are now about to suffer serious losses thanks to the tariffs, I say: suffer in your jocks

"land of the free...', yeah, sure!

1. For the past thirty years I've had the best job in the world. 
I've had the opportunity to follow my curiosity; explore the workings of nature and society; mentor students and junior colleagues in the same process; and teach generations of students about it all.

There are days in life that shake you. I’m shattered 💔 to share that I just found out that the US Government terminated my 2024 NIH Director’s Early Independence Award (~$2 million), threatening my long-promised assistant professor job at Columbia University & academic career... 1/🧵

They're coming for the dissidents, the scholars, the lawyers, and the media first, which is what dictators often do. Shut up the loud opposition, shut up the people who know history best, shut up the tools of legal opposition, and shut up those trying to provide transparency.

ATLAS ALERT: If you haven't seen this, because our fossil captured/intimidated media didn't report it, please watch and SHARE WIDELY this recent speech by @senatorsurfer.bsky.social on the malign influence of the Australian branch of the #AtlasNetwork and Advance. #AusPol youtu.be/DHkwa_rrM4w?...

Is this how corporations acted in the 1930s?

"The Trump administration is a direct threat to global security." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Ukraine is Europe! We stand by Ukraine. We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor. Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

Malcolm Turnbull: “When you see Trump with Putin, as I have on a few occasions, he’s like the 12-year-old boy that goes to high school & meets the captain of the football team. ‘My hero!’ It’s really creepy…the creepiness was palpable”

“It is now clear that detection methods do not and will not work so integrating AI into teaching should be about using it constructively and developing broader critical thinking around the capabilities and limitations, and shortfalls amongst students.” www.irishexaminer.com/news/arid-41...

It matters that scientists speak out against what is being done to US science. Staying silent is neither "objective" nor "staying out of politics". Silence now *is* political - it supports the status quo, says "nothing to worry about". We need to sound the alarm. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Who knew The Man in the High Castle was a documentary...

My fellow PhD-er at UC is looking for speakers of languages other than English in Australia for her research. Help her out and spread the word 🙏🏼
