I commend this Patrick Boyle video to everyone: SpaceX IPO: Nice Try Though youtu.be/IHD8BDFYyGI?...

I'm going to be the first person to have hantavirus and ebola at the same time. Dare to dream. Manifest destiny.

Welcome to another edition of "where the fuck are my glasses" with me your host... shit... can't even read the autocue without the glasses... Glan or something? FFS.

The Fetterman inner circle isn't full of yes men with similar delusions... and yet he's still like that? JFC.

Counterpoint: No it fucking isn’t Both their products and their services (Starlink) are the definition of state corporate capture. HE LITERALLY EXTORTED THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE USING THE WAR IN UKRAINE TO MAKE STARLINK SOLVENT

Seriously, why do I keep starting my skeets with 'seriously'? I'm both not very serious or often joking. Should just be more honest and just go: Blandly, why do I keep starting my skeets with 'seriously'?

Experts are projecting that the war in Iran will cost taxpayers $1 trillion. The people in charge just gave the richest 1% a $1 trillion tax break. And they really want us to believe SNAP and healthcare are the problem?? Get real.

Seriously though, the intersection between ancient DNA and linguistic reconstruction is so interesting. Once the AI crash ends hyper-capitalism perhaps I'll go back to university.

The way languages move over the history of the UK is so interesting. Until you remember that it somehow still ended up becoming the UK.

Seriously, one of the most creative chefs I know, who won a couple of hats, at home would eat.... cheese sandwiches. Food was work.

I'm sure I've posted it before, but it's pop music perfection. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOQF...

There's a lot to think about here. Such as, who is the target audience for Singapore border control? www.instagram.com/reel/DYjypoq...

My god. Is literally EVERYTHING about ADHD these days? This is the track that won Eurovision.

This really is an amazing thing to have happen isn't it. Like sci fi from the 50s www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05...

Violence against women and children is a national crisis. It deserves national leadership. The PM says his government is doing “everything”, yet frontline services remain under-resourced and femicide remains a national crisis.

I made a Coronation Street joke. The disgusting influence of the British Empire has seeped into every part of my brain. I can not be de-colonized.

There's a US Ebola patient in Berlin! Sven! Sven! Don't let him into the Berghain!

Will I agree mostly, I think AI actually is already doing useful things. It's just no where near the level it's hyped to.

Remember: we were never given credit for being right about crypto, we were never given credit for being right about NFTs, we were never given credit for being right about the metaverse and we will never be given credit for being right about AI. Fuck 'em up anyway.

Fantastic news. Housing forms that have already been consulted on in detail when the area gets upzoned should not be subject to a further drawn out process by the local vetocracy whose only goal is delay. Endless consultation processes only get in the way of housing we desperately need.

OpenAI Announces Construction Of New Data Center On Top Of Sick Child

Less scare more facts from @grogsgamut.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/business/gro...

Not only is the "death tax" campaign a TOTAL LIE, but even if it were true, we are talking about a truly minute number of the population. www.theguardian.com/business/gro...

He was actually one of the worst of the clerics covering up child sexual abuse, but his grave is being washed clean. Peter Hollingworth a ‘sad example’ of a man who received honours while protecting priests, says clerical abuse victim www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

I believe this is known as liquified natural gaslighting. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

The best way to save a rainforest isn't a tech startup or a carbon credit scheme. It’s Indigenous land rights. ​Indigenous communities legally manage nearly half of the Amazon Basin. Studies consistently show these areas are far better preserved than government-run parks.

Yeah. And when we realise this isn't enough to keep them all safe we'll need to send more people over there to create some kind of secure compound, and then... well, we're going to need people to handle the logistics... and then...

Bit worrying that a state premier does not understand how income tax works.

Two beaks? In this economy?

I hope the drones send the video to my widow.

This quote was mentioned to me yesterday….. '"The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born: now is the time of monsters." It certainly is #auspol

Crazy to think North Korea will probably have a female leader before places like China or Singapore.

maybe this practice of clunking headlines together might deserve a bit of a rethink…

I don't think AI can write anything of value yet. But it could probably script most SNL sketches.

I have finally gone and watched the movie 'Hail Mary'. It was OK I guess. Nothing wrong with it. But you've seen every trope in it used before.

Any time anyone says "I'm a founder" you know what to do.

The 'start up sector' narrative is so fucking stupid. The changes to CGT aren't going to touch most Start Ups (that die) and for those that do.... it's a reduced CGT anyway. You can't run a FUD campaign when the policy is already announced.

Proud day eh @markbutlermp.bsky.social, @albomp.bsky.social? Could have taxed gas companies, decided instead to hit people with Down Syndrome. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

They've allowed search to become progressively worse over the years, losing the battle against SEO gaming their system. Now it just doesn't work. And instead we get AI hallucinations. The future looks completely fucked.

Sure, I support the idea of nuclear energy. It's one of the reasons that France has such a low carbon intensity economy for example. But it's not 'affordable' and the timescales involved and continuing decreasing costs of renewables make it a dumb idea in Australia. Renewables have won.

#Newspoll ALP 31 L-NP 20 ON 27 Grn 12 Ind/other 10 My 2PP estimate for this poll 54.0 to ALP (-0.7) vs ON 53.0 to ALP (-1.7)

When I'm global dictator Burger Buns must not be made of Brioche.

Can't wait for the RPDR style Palestinian flag reveal when she sings the Arabic version after winning.

It would suck so badly if Australia wins Eurovision. So I guess that's what happens.

. @albomp.bsky.social has said today that @australiainstitute.org.au "needs to be fair dinkum" about gas taxes. Well he keeps saying the PRRT is ramping up. Guess what PM, your own budget papers show there is a ramp...but it ain't heading up. Fair dinkum, mate. Give the gas company spin a rest

Not the ideal sky to see when you walk the dog.
