🟥 Achieving a 50x50 Max Square is a great milestone in the tiling world, so when @100climbs.bsky.social announced he’d hit this target we wanted to hear the full scoop. 🚴🏻‍♂️Get inspired by Simon’s tiling adventures in our blog bit.ly/48cgSeU 🔗 #tilehunting #tiling #cyclingadventures

Bingwa Fest on today at Kasarani Stadium, Nairobi. A big event for the next crop of international-level talent.

This has got a good beat to it.

One of thirty transgender women who attended today’s pope-hosted lunch with Sr. Geneviève Jeanningros says she received “violent messages ” in the lead up to today, but writes she was at a “grade A reception” with Leo. She delivered a letter to Pope on behalf of all transgender persons.

So wait a minute - Newsweek writes “Mark Epstein told Newsweek the individual was not Clinton. He did not provide any additional details about the identity of Bubba or the meaning of the emails.” So Mark was denied he meant Clinton then left it at Trump blew someone else.

Saw ‘One Battle After Another’. Poorly written; vaguely racist and sexist; awful character and plot arcs; badly edited; holes; a bit boring; hard to feel any emotional connection to any character. Left feeling meh.

In the same month that the UN Commission of Inquiry came out and said that there is a genocide in Gaza, the Albanese Government handed over $20 million to an Israeli arms manufacturer that tests its weapons in Gaza.

This time next year Fetterman will be yet another Dem who went nuts then joined the GOP.

Goodall’s list is my list exactly.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

If Senator Canavan is going to continue to behave as he has on Gaza he needs to be removed from parliament. He’s an embarrassment to Australia and a danger to children.

Alan Tudge is finally becoming known for what he is. An award-winning book and a TV series on his acts. He: - oversaw the implementation of the unlawful Robodebt debt scheme. - faced allegations of bullying from a former staffer - he had been in a relationship with that staffer - he also had a wife.

"The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion...but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do." Samuel P. Huntington American political scientist, adviser and academic (1927-2008)

Next steps that @albomp.bsky.social could and should take to end the occupation and genocide.

Such strength! Jepchirchir superb in the World Championship marathon. #Tokyo #TokyoAthletics #Kenya

War criminals and pedo-adjacent types should be shuffled a bit further down the list of people Keir Starmer is associated with. #MakeKeirPopular

I wonder if Keir Starmer knows that if he makes good decisions and shows leadership he would be popular. Surely couldn’t be worse than what he’s doing.

New Stereolab single alert!

The U.S. Anti-Doping agency reveled on Tuesday that Raven Saunders was issued a 30-month suspension for accruing three whereabouts failures in 12 months. Saunders has accepted the violation and based on a report from USADA, the three whereabouts failures occurred in April, May and December 2024.

As Ezra Klein noted this week, it’s time to stop saying “this is how authoritarian regimes act” and start saying “this is an authoritarian regime”. We’ve crossed that line @abcnewsbot.bsky.social - www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

Tight for top 3 at the Great North Run!

It dawned on me today that Donald Trump leading the US would be like Jimmy Saville leading the UK.

Read it - you’ll be changed. #Trump #Epstein

Uganda’s half-marathon world record holder Jacob Kiplimo and double Olympic champion Joshua Cheptegei will miss this month’s World Athletics Championships in Tokyo due to “personal reasons”. They could at least feign an injury! Reads more like a confession.

Oh well it was fun while it lasted. Turns out Trump just took four days off to play golf. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

So now that Trump is dead, can the new president go back to eyeliner wearing, being trans-and immigrant friendly, fighting poverty and addiction, and calling a truce on the culture war?

Resting on an oversized diaper as his final fart departs. #Trump

What’s all this Trump is dead stuff about?

Countries that have publicly declared they would arrest Netanyahu • Austria • Belgium • Canada • Denmark • Djibouti • Egypt • Estonia • Finland • Ireland • Lithuania • Netherlands • New Zealand • Norway • Slovenia • Spain • Switzerland But Penny and Albo say “Well, it’s difficult”

Westminster Tube station (not AI)

Sussan Ley’s shift to the far right of politics doesn’t come from within. Like Turnbull, she’s been forced to take positions she detests. After her 2022 trip to Israel, the one-time pro-Palestine MP now finds herself trapped on the wrong side of history - clinging to Julian Leeser and Katie Allen.

Why is the Australian public so much more moral, clever and fact-driven than @albomp.bsky.social and @senatorwong.bsky.social ? We seem to elect people to drag the chain at a time when there’s a strong desire for change. #Palestine #FirstNationsRights #ImmigrationReform #TaxReform #ABCfreedom

I feel so let down by @albomp.bsky.social Penny Wong and @keirstarmer.bsky.social All of them destroying their legacies for an outdated and now morally repugnant position.

I used to be in politics long ago. Very much a bit player. National Union of Students delegate, member of the Young Europeans in London - that kind of thing. And there was always that trade off - I’ll toe the line now so that when I have real power I’ll do good things. I shared my thoughts…
