I wasn't near this so didn't see what happened but I recall walking past where it did only a few minutes beforehand when police started coming enmasse to form lines in an aggressive manner and blocking the path and thinking, "Oh shit." Coppers are always amping shit up. Our 'safety' my flat arse.

First the NT Attorney-General failed to declare her ties to Jake Danby — the man who killed an Aboriginal man and walked free. Now her department is caught interfering with the Supreme Court. This dodgy AG’s department needs to be investigated by ICAC.

Google's claim that each AI prompt uses the energy of 9 seconds of television is like throwing dispersant over an oil slick. The only way to get a number that low is with massive scale, which you should definitely worry about. medium.com/@dnafus/why-...

So look, I’m not the brightest of sparks or the sharpest of tools and probably get shit wrong half the time but I reckon if us whitey McWhitersons wanna counter racists and their rallies we should probably be listening to the Indigenous peoples on whose lands we walk. #Auspol

Guys I don’t feel so great and I want to take a nap but this is the best time to share and Yacoub has not raised much today so if possible if you all could share him too?

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

Now the fight to keep it! #AusPol #Treaty

Labor stans really don't like it when you point out how thoroughly up Gina's arse the ALP are. The sooner we dissolve the two 'preferred' parties the better. Hell, fuck the entire party system. All it ever does is water down complex issues into partisan slogans and entrench top-down power.

As the first Treaty makes its way through the Victorian parliament, this is a historic moment for us all. With the votes of our @victoriangreens.bsky.social colleagues, this Treaty legislation will pass.

So I have had two Palestinians I’ve shared lose their account this week- it was their first accounts, they didn’t understand the platform, weren’t spamming or DMing anyone- sent in appeals with pictures of their IDs and heard nothing from @moderation.bsky.app

Welcome home. My @smh @theage cartoon.

'Tough on crime' is practically a euphemism for racist. #AusPol

Battin's being illiberal, not Liberal. Self-determination should be something such a party supports, not denies. #AusPol #Treaty

Really starting to hate this guy. #AusPol

The framing around the ceasefire is driving me up the wall. It's all, "Will Trump's peace hold?" and "How did Trump do it?" Like... fuck off. Seriously, FUCK. OFF! The Trump boosterism and sanewashing by news media is fucking banal. And I mean that in the Arendt sense, you fucks.

The lights on the hill. My @smh @theage cartoon.

The Sameer Project’s donations are down 45% today but their work is unfortunately far from over. Give to the South campaign, which supplies 200,000 liters of water a day: chuffed.org/project/1132...

I need an anti-fascist hat. I keep forgetting how harsh the sun can be when I'm out in it for hours at a time. Anyway, show up. For all Australians. #AusPol

As bulldozers began clearing rubble in Gaza and tens of thousands of Palestinians return to their destroyed homes, a nationwide march for Gaza took place, demanding justice for Palestine, and sanctions on the genocidal state of Israel. www.greenleft.org.au/2025/1440/ne...

C'mon, what are you waiting for? If you're a scaredy cat like me, you could email instead. #AusPol

THEY'RE MARCHING FOR AUSTRALIA AGAIN. WE'RE COUNTERING AGAIN. [video] WATCH: youtu.be/jy9JExNo0zE Looking at 19 October M4As - and our counters. SHOW THE FUCK UP AND STOP WASTING TIME - GET YOUR MATES, FOLLOWERS, WHATEVER TO DO THE SAME.

Battin is clearly going for the MAGA crowd with this type of rhetoric. He's also against Treaty for Victoria. On the one hand it's Victoria so this stuff probably won't sell well in the wider electorate. On the other, we also have Nazis holding rallies openly with mass attendence, so... #AusPol

If this were really the case, "...chance for politicians and staff to relax and exercise during parliamentary sitting weeks..." then they wouldn't object to ending this, "...alongside sponsors who cover costs." But of course, it's not, it's about lobbyists having access to influence politicians.

🪑 Armchair activists, assemble! 😜 We need YOU to sign our petition to the Port to stop coal ships during the Blockade. The Port calls itself “a global leader in sustainability” — let's pressure them to live up to that claim. risingtide.nationbuilder.com/stop_the_coa...

Rallies will be happening nation wide this sunday OCT 12.

"One of the many constant themes running through the book is how Palestinians are consistently denied agency; what the influential Palestinian academic Edward Said terms 'their permission to narrate'." #Palestine #Gaza

Let’s show multicultural communities support Treaty! If you’re a multicultural org or group join our statement in support of Treaty in Victoria, email the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre at [email protected] by 10am Thursday (tomorrow) to add your name!

We are so, so fucked.

Here is Jamal from Gaza whose family lost everything and he is trying with all his might to rebuild their lives and help them with the crazy costs in Gaza and travel outside Gaza when the crossings open. I hope you support us. Your little support, even if it is $5 chuffed.org/project/1389...

This is a really beautiful thing. First Nations people are being beyond generous in asking non-Indigenous people to walk with them on the journey through Treaty for Victoria. If you want to be proud of this country, then this is something I believe we should support. #Treaty #Victoria #AusPol

Protecting our children is the most important job for the Australian government. I’ve just come back from a desert prison camp in NE Syria where 25 Australian children are being held among fear, dust and poverty. www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

"We hand over our autonomy, at the very moment of emerging American fascism." Yeup, 'cause it's a fundamentally fascistic project.

I can't bring myself to watch "One Battle After Another." My suspension of disbelief is immediately shattered by the fact that DeCaprio isn't dating the actress playing his character's daughter.

Nationwide rally for Palestine: Two years of Gaza Genocide, Stand up for #Gaza

I swear a lot of AI boosters are Gen X who are feeling old and trying to be, "Hello fellow kid!" about it. Their FOMO is so intense they compensate by uncritically adopting it in a, "See? I'm still hip and cool and shit!" way.

Why are people a constant disappointment?

They found 38 unmarked graves of Indigenous children at Immaculate Conception Mission in South Dakota and it didn't make the news outside of Indian Country.

One tower after another, the rockets of "Israel" level the ground, killing the face of the city and its people, being hit by them, destroying the remains of their properties and their tents, and thousands of them are forced to displace again. #genocide #palestinians #savegaza #freegaza #gaza

Right now, hundreds of people part of the Global Sumud Flotilla are risking their lives to deliver food, water and medical supplies directly to the people of Gaza, who are being deliberately starved by Israel.

We are donating 100% of our profits from all copies sold of our award winning bestseller cookbook till Boxing Day (Dec 26) to help Palestinian refugees families in Australia. Available at all good bookstores everywhere & on - line. Order it here: tinyurl.com/2fnc472r

Hey @albomp.bsky.social , you keep saying you can't do anything, that you're powerless, but everyone is starting to come around to realising what you really are, is gutless.

I really wish scientists and journalists would realise that they're doing the same fucking work as Trump and RFK Jr. whenever they say things like, "...the risk of autism."

How is it that time & again, it is artist & writers (& healthcare workers) who are prepared to do the uncomfortable work of standing up to power, to institutions & speak out against genocide❓ Why is the climate & environment movement still largely missing in action❓
