“Already in 2011 the world was 0.8ºC warmer on average than it was when I was born. That is a speed of change that exceeds any that has happened in the last 10,000 years.” ― Sir David Attenborough

Good morning @ejanea77.bsky.social

our mismanagement of the environment has crossed the point of no return, the dolphins are leaving

This would be a war crime. Obviously. Collective punishment.

Contrary to Albanese’s word association games with the Murdoch press, I don't think Grace Tame is "difficult". She just doesn’t like dickheads and pedophiles, it's really quite simple.

I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does. Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision. We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore. This is something significantly bigger and scarier.

I am at real risk of saying something I'm going to regret. Every word of the post below is a lie, and its author deserves to burn in Hell for eternity.

If the US attacks Greenland (a NATO ally) then Australia needs to rapidly act. Assess the threat posed by the many US military assets in Australia and design a strategy to remove them as rapidly as possible. No one can seriously pretend they make us safe anymore.

Palestinians returning to their homes in Gaza face danger from unexploded ordnance, with at least 53 people killed.

Hedges wasn’t there to debate what to him, and to those who have followed his reporting, was obvious. Marr seemed captured by the forum, rather than the substance. Hedges aptly made his case, but he shouldn’t have had to. www.deepcutnews.com/p/australian...

"I don't think these people feel any shame at all" - Chris Hedges, on being cancelled by the National Press Club of Australia and Western journalistic complicity

Ghislane Maxwell is causing lockdowns at her new prison during which she gets to meet in the prison chapel with outside visitors. The WSJ says it isn’t clear who she met with but that she was smiling when she returned to her unit and when asked, said it had "gone well".

Could the National Press Club be less embarrassing and less complicit in the genocide of Palestine/the West's decline into overt fascism, pretty, pretty, pretty please? 🙏 Cancelling Chris Hedges' talk on the betrayal of Palestinian journalists only proves his point. Truly, truly pathetic

BREAKING: The Global Sumud Flotilla organisers have declared a state of emergency on board, as they prepare for the expected Israeli interception of their mission to break the blockade of Gaza.

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” George Orwell, 1984

If you think that the way Donald Trump is acting—particularly in getting angry today when reporters asked about Jeffrey Epstein—is very much an indication that he's hiding something super incriminating, welcome to the entirety of humanity, from America to nations around the world

Thousands of people die every day in Gaza, but main stream media, including the ABC is more concerned that we hear more stories about the real victims of war in the Middle East: well-off Australians facing the hell of flight delays while on route to their European holidays.

US president congratulates Iran and Israel on truce deal, but neither country has confirmed agreement to end war.

Yup, international law is just so quaint and nostalgic when our allies are the ones breaking it. But God forbid someone we have designated a threat step anywhere near the lines we’re hastily pretending never existed

I find myself completely unable to function today. I’ve seen a child surrounded by the flames of what was her family home. Starving babies. Defeated, broken men. Women cradling their shrouded children. It’s too much. And yet I still have to hear ‘but Hamas..’ FUCK OFF. Israel is committing genocide

Some guy on Twitter made a point of announcing that thousands upon thousands of men are descended from rapists, and we women "aren't going to like it when [they] stop asking nicely." Which, you know, surprise surprise brother, but you're also not going to like it when we stop refusing nicely.

"John has been 'on the ground' in Gaza? Yeah, as an embed.... Yeah as guests of the Israeli military... And you've come back and done exactly what they wanted. You've done their propaganda for them." Me vs Netanyahu ally and supporter John Spencer. Full debate: www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUjT...

Israel is preventing the WHO from sending incubators into Gaza. Think about how savage, how barbaric, how evil, you have to be to defend that and defend the government doing that.
