The conservative wannabe-Trump opposition leaders in both Canada and Australia lost both their bids to become prime minister - but also their own seats! To quote ⁦‪Rick Wilson‬⁩: everything Trump touches dies.

Walz: "This is how government is supposed to work. It's not supposed to be one old man in the Oval Office sending out middle of the night tweets that shock markets into free fall. It's not supposed to be a bunch of 20 somethings unelected and firing everyone. It's not supposed to be chaos."

Brilliant.

Fact check. That egg is way too large.

A weak sad man.

Holy Shit - we are in 2025 and the Liberal leader STILL can't say the worsening weather we are seeing is because of climate change. "I am not a scientist" Fuck me.

Story. My @smh cartoon.

WARNER: Can you explain how it helps natl security or our trade balance - I loved your fancy Greek formula which was bad math on steroids - how with a trade surplus Australia got hit with a 10% tariff as well? GREER: Australia has the lowest rate available WARNER: We have a trade surplus!

Lazy. Shoddy. Shocking.

The sky flickers—static-gray, sun replaced by neon haze. Steel towers groan, their circuits fray, progress lost in time’s decay. Ash drifts slow on winds of rust, ghosts of cities—dust to dust. Once we built, and now we fade, chained by code we thought would save.

" pollution from burning coal, petroleum and gas → the deaths of 1 in 5 people – slightly more than cigarette smoking. This is a simple medical fact. It was put on the design for a billboard But it was knocked back, for being “political” reneweconomy.com.au/billboard-bl...

Imagine: You get a cold call from a real estate agent. You’re on the Do Not Call Register, so you tell them not to contact you again. Soon after, you start getting multiple calls from different real estate agencies, all saying you submitted an enquiry on Realestate.com.au asking for a callback.

This is just ridiculous. 'We don't set targets from Opposition' is barely-disguised pollie-speak for 'we're not going to be ambitious, but we don't want to say it out loud'. We should expect - and get - more from a Government or alternative Government. #auspol

The best.

Crikey indeed.

Relying on ChatGPT for health info can lead to misdiagnosis, misinformation, & delayed care. AI may lack accuracy, miss context, or provide outdated advice. Users might self-diagnose incorrectly, ignore doctors, or face privacy risks. It’s useful but shouldn’t replace medical professionals. -ChatGPT
