🎙️📚 “'The Jackfruit Chronicles' is an intensely political book, but I’ve chosen to tell it through the lens of food because that is one of the more accessible ways of connecting with an audience.” A conversation with @shahnazahsan.bsky.social: buff.ly/vsKZzYn

Israel is deliberately depriving people of aid in #Gaza. MSF’s new report shows how restrictions blocked medical supplies, sometimes even forcing our teams to perform procedures without anesthesia. Read the report: ow.ly/YZ8v50WZFBs

Which is to say: If the LLM, given ALL OF THE TEXT as in it was given the dang science papers, cannot convey more than one point, overhypes it, and oversimplifies to the point of wrongness, when given ALL OF THE INFORMATION... Why are you using it to write your term paper?

Some people think ChatGPT has a place writing things like news briefs, stuff written to a specific style and tone and, y'know, kinda boring. So Science did a study. ChatGPT failed. Why? It got stuff wrong. "Also, extensive editing for hyperbole was needed." www.science.org/content/blog...

Investors are backing enough LNG tanker capacity to put the world on track for 4C of warming. This is when we're on track for 3C of warming and aiming for well below 2C. Investors are backing assets that'd be stranded even under the worst climate scenarios. www.businessgreen.com/news/4519373...

New research considers the true value of Meanjin, using publicly available data. The journal has trained generations of Australian writers and editors.

This is part of a massive generative slop / plagiarism operation seemingly being run by one dude operating a bunch of similarly designed websites - "Krishna Pathak" (not sure if actual real dude) Also being syndicated on MSN. Registered at 'paper mill' address in Wyoming GenAI is the WORST

While most attention with Ragasa has been in the northern Philippines and the coming impacts in southern China, up to 26 inches of rain has triggered flooding & mudslides in Taiwan as moist flow on the periphery of Ragasa's circulation hammers the island's terrain. Rain will last into Wed AM.

Of all my jobs, my favourite is being cat furniture 🐈🛋

Josh Burns and all other ALP MPs please take note. People are disappointed, angry and activated to use their ballot box power to tell you how they feel. In the ACT we will be starting a dedicated campaign to make sure this is the case.

Super Typhoon #Ragasa: The coastal communities of Heng Fa Tsuen and South Horizons have already seen churning seas as the T8 storm signal is hoisted. Hongkongers have been warned to stay away from shorelines. Full coverage: hongkongfp.com/typhoon-raga...

"Italian labor unions led a massive 24-hour general strike on Monday to protest Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza, with estimates of hundreds of thousands of demonstrators rallying in dozens of cities across Italy."

They have freed Alaa. After several eternities. Wonderful picture of him with his mother Laila. They have both suffered so much. What strength. Gods bless them always. apnews.com/article/egyp...

Mass protests sweep across Italy in solidarity with Palestine, demanding recognition of the State of Palestine, an end to genocide and occupation, and protection for the Palestinian people.  [📹@millyoneire]

Don't call it a come back... The globe has awakened from it's hurricane slumber with 3 major hurricanes / super typhoons in 3 days! All three have been cat 4 and 5's with #Ragasa topping the list at 175 mph. #Gabrielle is peaking now so 140 may soon be upgraded.

It's taken a while but good to see an appropriate response to the assault of anti-genocide protestor Hannah Thomas, in the correct direction

I hope the portion of Australia's climate & environment movement who has stayed silent about Israel's genocide connects the dots about what contempt for international law & impunity for violations means for international agreements, obligations, rulings, cooperation

The sort of company that appoints a "seriously corrupt" politician is the sort of company that will have rolling disasters and mass governance and ethical failures. Pretty simple. (ICYMI:) theklaxon.com.au/optus-boss-r...

Watching @albomp.bsky.social and @senatorwong.bsky.social declare Australia’s support for a Palestinian state feels deeply hypocritical—rhetoric without halting arms to Israel or Zionist policies fueling the genocide. #auspol

“Ultimately, the responsibility [for ANU] rests with the chancellor, Julie Bishop. She presided over this continued period of dysfunction, and it was under her watch that catastrophic failures occurred,” Senator Anthony Sheldon www.afr.com/politics/fed...

PM @albomp.bsky.social FM @senatorwong.bsky.social it's good that Australia has formally recognised Palestine as a sovereign and independent state Now you need to END material, military and political support for Israel And SANCTION ISRAEL NOW

Extraordinary Read in full to understand the extent of full-blown racism and hospital executive and institutional failure at Fiona Stanley Hospital. It is a disgrace. (No shade on the honourable actual Professor Fiona Stanley)

An article from a site called "Clean Tech Times" about Charlie Kirk and Big Oil money is trending in r/energy on Reddit It's a completely plagiarized, unauthorized, unlinked version of an article I published the day before I have no idea what to do about it except complain. It's so fucked up.

Exclusive: distinguished Prof Fiona Stanley was ‘ashamed’ after the hospital named after her abruptly cancelled an event featuring Palestinian-Australian doctors speaking about their experiences in Gaza, and says she even considered asking the hospital to remove her name

Six internationally recognised marine scientists who are researching South Australia's toxic algal bloom are set to lose their jobs at Flinders University, the ABC understands. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

Typhoon Ragasa is wobbly yet again, as it undergoes another ERC, or at least tries to. At the same time the eye has warmed again slightly and the CDO cooled. Eye in particular ragged tho. Thankfully models now agree again that Ragasa should stay south of the Pearl River delta, still in the cone tho

Actions in Liberia for the Global Week of Action call for #Agroecology, #JustTranstition #CancelTheDebt and No Land Grabs for Carbon Markets 🔥

A powerful message from @ActionAid mobilisations in Nigeria: Far more of the world's money is going to the causes of climate change, not the solutions. 💸🌍🔥 This is absurd. We call on governments to shift the finance flows. #FundOurFuture, not the crisis! #ClimateFinance #FundTheFuture #COP30

#DrawTheLine mobilisations in Tanzania sent the message that communities on the front lines of the climate crisis demand bold, just and people-centred action. ✊ On bikes, and with symbolic trees in bottles attached to air masks they called for renewables, #JustTransition & #FundOurFuture. 🌍

#DrawTheLine mobilisations in Nigeria join the Global Week of Action today calling for #JustTransition, #Agroecology and to #FundOurFuture, not the crisis!

Vai Shah is a friend of mine, so I'm contractually obliged to love this, but also it's just objectively great. Thanks @parentsforclimate.bsky.social for giving her the opportunity!

Part of the crowd at rally protesting against Labor's weak climate targets in Naarm (Melbourne) earlier today outside Sarah Witty Labor MP for Melbourne's office.

If Penny Wong is serious about the Australian govt wanting to *do something* to stop the #GazaGenocide, Francesca Albanese provided a handy list a couple of months ago. #auspol

I hope everyone in the path or orbit of Super Typhoon #Ragasa #NandoPH finds somewhere safe to take shelter and stay safe #Philippines #Taiwan #Hainan #Guangdong #HongKong #Macau #ExtremeWeather

The community are angry that Labor are in bed with dirty coal and gas. We vented our feelings outside Sarah Witty MP’s office in Fitzroy this afternoon. #climatecrisis #auspol
