Beyond disgraceful. Simon Gordon's endometriosis surgeries were gynaecology's open secret. Now colleagues and patients are speaking out

Hmmm...I think we have legislation coming to regulate particular classes of ebikes

Israel has been dumping herbicides throughout southern Lebanon as part of a concerted ecocide campaign to render the region uninhabitable. This has been going on for months with Lebanese journalists & environmentalists regularly reporting on it. The BBC: we don’t know why the Israelis are doing it

How the actual fuck do the #ABCInsiders host and couch guests discuss how good it is that there's cozy relationship between #Albanese and #FuckTrump in one breath and in the next be condemning #SweatyAndrew and exhorting the need to distance from him. Cognitive dissonance abounds. #EpsteinClass

Many women ended up in Syria through complex & coercive means—victims of grooming & trafficking—under the control of men & families determined to go, with no power or financial means to say no. Fuck off with "if you make your bed you can lie in it," @albomp.bsky.social. #MVAW #MVAC #BringThemHome

Very significant submission from the Catholic Archdiocese in Brisbane against Qld Premier David Crisafulli's "criminalisation of speech". The church was mostly silent during the suffering of the people under the Newman government. New Pope Leo XIV made a change mid-2025. #qldpol

Bangarra Dance Theatre, Australia's leading Indigenous dance company, has won the prestigious international award, the Golden Lion, at the Venice Biennale. How wonderful! I saw one of their productions years ago and it was fantastic! www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02...

Honestly, after hearing KPMG's gobsmacking evidence during the Robodebt RC, I can't imagine why anyone would want to be associated with them.

Vale Jesse Jackson. My @smh @theage cartoon.

Don’t forget, when Pauline drops racist bombshells into the media for everyone to react to, she’s now being funded by Gina Rinehart, major contributor to racist propaganda group Advance and inspired by MAGA-guru Steve “flood the zone with bullshit” Bannon. The offence is the point.

#auspol David Shoebridge, yet again, showing how it should be done

As Save the Children said: “Australians should never be left without a safe or viable pathway home. These innocent children have already lost years of their childhood, and deserve the chance to rebuild their lives in safety at home, and to reintegrate into the Australian way of life.”

POV: When you learn that Australia taxes beer more than polluting gas exports And the cherry on top? That gas is driving climate change and worsening extreme weather – no matter where it’s burned. Thanks for the hot tip @davidpocock.bsky.social

At the end of this week, Anthony Albanese will become Australia's longest serving prime minister since John Howard. He's on track to rival Fraser and Hawke in time in the top job. But to leave what legacy?

So when thousands of women (and children) were being duplicated--including in non-consensual AI porn--it was no big deal. But it took "only a 15-sec clip" of these two famous white men to draw outrage and fear. Gotcha. Cool cool.

Jeffrey Epstein encouraged child rapist politicians to make climate change worse to cause black & brown people to die faster. Fossil fuel mass murdering executives can have their assets confiscated even after they liquidated their holdings. Send them to prison for their murders.

Incredible read. Determined to have AUKUS nuclear submarines, but no plans for dealing with AUKUS nuclear waste Plan seems to be to studiously ignore the entire issue, keep the "nuclear illiterate" Australian public uninformed & in a state of illiteracy

Shameful, @albomp.bsky.social. "as Angus Taylor ascended to the leadership of a riven & defeated political party, the Albanese government slipped out a handful of announcements on contentious climate & environment issues. Excellent work, @adammorton.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Yes,,, your boy has taken a ride in the 4 man bobsled,,, but im an adrenaline junkie and needed to try skeleton. And now I’ve officially joined the team and am gonna try to start competing. 66 years old going 66 mph.

Watermelons, uncertainties & absurdities. Professor Anne Twomey on the problems with Qld Premier David Crisafulli's absurdly politicised, "Fighting Antisemitism & Keeping Guns out of the Hands of Terrorists & Criminals Amendment Bill 2026". #qldpol youtu.be/lXJLv4978Iw

Dr Jeremy Walker details the “enormous war chest” of Advance & lists funders inc Gina Rinehart, James Packer, IPA board, Woodside’s Charles Goode & “the priv foundation of Jillian Segal” - who pay Advance to “flood social media with aggressive Far Right disinformation”🔥 #auspol

The leader of the opposition. #auspol.

$Billions of public funds to US imperialism and the military industrial complex. We would create more jobs by building a good society, public housing, transport, hospital, and education infrastructure. AUKUS, a crazy capitulation to an autocratic, divided, and declining empire.

Good footage in this of the Australian protests against extremist Zionist genocide and Australian Govt welcoming a (pro Maga) genocide promoting war criminal pushing apartheid collective punishment one state solution. Denying genocide in Gaza, West Bank is no different to denying the WW2 Holocaust

Today, King George Square, 3pm #endgenocide #protest

Can you have yr spine broken, unprovoked, by police & get no compo? Is that 'reasonable' justice in NSW now? @wendybacon1.bsky.social on the Minns laws rushed in, the judge, and the Inquiry #auspol #Herzog michaelwest.com.au/when-politic...

Ethiopian artist Makeda Bizuneh, The Roofs in the Moonlight (c.2013) #WomensArt

Hearing today into Democracy and Human Rights in Myanmar - we hold deep concerns about the sham elections, the 5.6 million people displaced and many more desperately in need of aid, the urgent call to cut aviation fuel supplies to the regime and more.

Another apt sign. Herzog isn’t welcome. #Auspol

Huge numbers out in Naarm/Melbourne right now for the second time this week to say the war criminal Isaac Herzog isn't welcome in our city! ✊🇵🇸

Absolutely huge crowd in Melbourne right now. People from all backgrounds, ages and professions - united in opposition to genocide and war. This is what social cohesion looks like.

#RealHeroes Vs #FascistFluffers and #Genocide supporters @australianlabor.bsky.social

Vivian Maier's (1926-2009) photographic self-portraits in mirrors, shadows, reflections, suggest her enigmatic persona, a shadowy presence behind her camera which enabled the capture of candid moments of life #WomensArt

I couldn't bring myself to watch Parliament today, I've seen more than enough sick shit to last a lifetime of late. Didn't need to have our complicity further proven, and I have no desire to witness yet another debasement ritual for Albanese.

This made me ugly cry 😭 I will never claim that he was perfect…every president in my lifetime has pissed me off for one reason or another. But…dammit, I’m so tired of the constant feeling of uneasiness and uncertainty 😔

#auspol the federal government is doing wrong

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

We need to turn the temperature down, says guy who turned it up

Senator @barbarapocock.bsky.social pressing the Minister in Estimates today: if the Future Fund already excludes weapons & tobacco, why not companies like Palantir that enable racial profiling & punitive tracking of immigrants?

Sadly amusing that it took Haaretz to pick up on this line by Albanese

We'll say it again: "social cohesion", to those who chant it, means maintenance of the status quo which privileges them, and silencing of everyone else. In the mouth of a Labor MP, it is an expression of the deepest hypocrisy.

www.theguardian.com/media/2026/f... Lenore Taylor, an awesome, thoughtful voice in the media landscape. I look forward to seeing her next career incarnation. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

As if Grace Tame would give a crap if her Australian of the Year title were removed. As if it would stop her speaking. Tame has dealt with real life things. She won’t be cowed so easily. #AusPol

Antisemitism Envoy admits she 'wasn't focused on' unequal protections in 'hate laws' seeking to protect only one religion. The bias isn't a bug it's a feature.

"This was planned. And Chris Minns owns it ... I was there". Andrew Brown with the extraordinary story of NSW Police brutality at the Herzog protest. While the premier - to great applause - said "Thank you friends" to the Israel Lobby. #auspol michaelwest.com.au/this-was-pla...
