It's just more media bollocks - pursuing clickbait stories, to promote clickbait activities, regardless of the outcome, and then inevitably, if/when that outcome goes very poorly, blaming one or more of those involved... but never, ever mentioning their own shrill, persistent stoking of the fire.

If Keir Starmer has disappeared up Trump's arse, he'll find that Anthony Albanese crawled up there first. Notable that British journalists are at least trying to do what Australian mainstream hacks rarely do: challenge their PM about the US 'relationship'. #auspol

Ooh, this guy's a nutter! 😯 - but - but why is my Prime Minister nodding to everything the nutter says like one of those novelty dog toys with the wobbly head!? 🇦🇺🤦‍♂️

MLK reminds us that the time to act is NOW.

Politicians (certain politicians) aside, when are we going to jettison the now nonsensical nostalgia of journalists as a worthwhile element of society? Indeed, the aforementioned 'certain politicians' only have their perverted reach *because* of these same journalists. youtube.com/shorts/PDNE7...

Trump is trying to sell Palestinian sovereignty for $1 billion per seat while Palestinians are still being bombed and starved under the so-called “ceasefire.” This isn’t diplomacy, it’s profiteering off genocide. Australia better not touch this with a 10-foot pole.

Trump circumvents the UN in his Gaza “Board of Peace”. @albomp.bsky.social invited to join. Conditions appear unacceptable. Trump would control all the money donated to help rebuild Gaza = corruptible governance.

More people should know about the day 90% of Icelandic women went on strike, forcing real political change towards gender equality: www.bbc.com/news/magazin...

The largest spiders present are the very chill but formidable looking giant banded huntsmen. These spiders are tolerated by many Australians inside houses solely because of how well they can hunt large cockroaches. Our predatory version of the koala pretty much.

And sure, photographing bugs and spiders in a vegetable garden may not be as glamourous as jungle or swamp. But theres a great feeling that comes from a memory card of photos from a slow wander through a garden, that kinda capture its portrait through the faces that live there

how anyone can put “more than 100 children killed” and ceasefire into the same headline has me fucking enraged. Use your senses. Christ.

#GVerse #BreakingNews Thousands of Danes and Greenlanders are protesting #Shit4Brain’s annexation efforts today in Copenhagen to make clear we shouldn’t annex Greenland. We stand with our NATO partners.

I left university in 2019 with £49,600 of debt. A few months later, I became an MP and have since received a salary that puts me in the top 5% in the country. 6 years on, the repayments from my salary have brought this total to down to £48,600 - just £1,000 less.

Oh shit. If this can be used in court AI might truly be fucked. And I love it. search.app/VrStj

“If the U.S. has so far fallen short of forcing Israel to adhere to the full terms of the ceasefire, what’s the likelihood that Trump will compel Netanyahu to cede more of Gaza’s territory in the second part of the deal?”

(sigh) no satire, definitely no comedy, just bare-bones fact. At this juncture, you *know* that the Party of Trump (formerly Republicans) have, in equal measure, no scruples and no spine. The truly aggravating aspect of this is that that description is also true for the Democrat leadership. 😐

well... yes. chr!st-onna-bike, who the f*ck is surprised at this point... apart from the Schumers, Pelosis & Jeffrieses who are vitally intent on **maintaining a façade of normalcy [long since eroded because] that maintains their personal entitlements**. 😑🤦‍♂️

@edrybicki.bsky.social, I may have asked you this before (entirely likely that I'll do it again), but what is that first flag following your name?

Thank god for the green and independent Senators who keep the unrepresentative swill on the government and opposition benches honest.

As you already well know by now, it's all lies. Every single thing anyone in this entire administration says is a lie. All of it. Every time.

no this is not Albanese standing up to the Israel lobby. It is Greens and coalition politicians, for different reasons, declaring they will not pass a rushed bill on [further] criminalisation of speech.

Seriously, stop with legislation & develop a broad education campaign to promote unity & social cohesion! We hear rhetoric about how Australians help each other, but all we see atm from politicians & other high profile figures is stoking division. Not good role models. #Auspol

Some sage advice from Uncle Atom in this episode of @tabletopminions.bsky.social

“The obscene gesture Trump made in Michigan was brimming with youthful vitality, not to mention quite a bit of technical finesse,” said Fox News’ Sean Hannity

‘UATX has been portrayed in some quarters as having been a right-wing project from the start. However, the truth is vastly more complex.’ Is it? www.politico.com/news/magazin...

What I find intriguing about interviews like this • isn't that sh!tweasels like Jenrick are hard to catch out on their own hypocrisies • it's that sharks will eat sharks upon instruction. Kuenssberg is a mediocre interviewer with a huge Right-wing bias. Someone has instructed her to savage Jenrick.

[not an original thought, but... ] Across the Anglophone 'democracies', civil rights are eroded by successive gov.s arguing that they are "protecting the children", eg. social media bans in the UK & AU. Yet, the UK & AU gov.s refuse to detach from the "deepfake pornsite formerly known as Twitter".

The Financial Times has dubbed it “the deepfake p*** site formerly known as Twitter”. To read Alona Ferber’s full article, click here: www.prospectmagazine...

To recap: A regime that pardoned actual insurrectionists is calling Americans protesting those very insurrectionists now wearing masks and terrorizing black and brown people “insurrectionists”

well - yes. so, how does this feel? are we going to continue to tell our black neighbors how they should 'reasonably react' after being treated like so much inhuman live stock? are we going to tell our Latino neighbors that as they're not real citizens they just have to accept less?

Indeed... indeed. 🫤

It's brave of Reform's Zia Yusuf to help @zackpolanski.bsky.social set out some Green Party policies. Thanks, Zia. Oh, and btw - you’re right. We do need to get behind the only party that can save this country: join.greenparty.org.uk.

At the cemetery historically known as the Field of Mars, a sea of flags snap and ripple in the wind, and names appear faster than the city can make space for them.

You know what the weirdest thing is? They think they are leaving us behind… Maybe it feels like they are leaving us behind too… But actually we are desperately throwing out life savers and trying to pull them onto the life boat, but they are pulling us into the water instead. 😷

Malinauskas: 21st century ALP. Qld's ALP Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk pushed as hard as she could for Adani's 'Death to the Barrier Reef' Coal Mine. Adani = 1,000 jobs Reef Tourism = 64,000 jobs Asked later, Palaszczuk stated emphatically, "I was never pro- the mine! 😦" Another Liberal Party.

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties. The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized. Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.
