8 officers fired on dezi freeman?! that’s a fucking firing squad. they straight up executed him. vicpol running death squads is cool and not worrying at all hey

abc news really just said albo’s address to the nation is a significant escalation in his response to the war lol what

The press club's invitation to Newman stands in stark contrast to its stance in 2022, when it withdrew a speaking invitation to then-Russian ambassador Alexey Pavlovsky citing “allegations of war crimes and bombing of civilian targets” in Ukraine.

Happy Tasmanian Devil Average Birthday, to all those who celebrate! 🥳 Devils have an annual mating season, which goes from late Feb until late April. That means, on average, devil joeys are born on 1st April. So if you wish a devil Happy Birthday today, you’ve got a good chance of being correct!

bee feeding success, kept it a very quick mission but the funny bit was the dogs - who when i was going outside were all like “yeah where are we going!” and followed me outside but when they saw me going to the bee yard they all went “yeah nah” and went back inside the house 😆

it’s so warm today i want to feed the bees but im scared they’ll want to murder me again 🙃

which journos were in the room?? we need to be naming these people

glorious day to hunt oyster shells 🦪 🐕 💕 🌊

And now the Israeli ambassador is on the NPC stage flat-out lying about the killing of journalists. They were all terrorists, apparently. Congrats, NPC, you’re now complicit in Israel’s propaganda efforts.

corflutes are going up around the huon and we have to vote AGAIN?!

I dunno I think neoliberalism’s grand plan of dismantling the welfare state and the social contract and replacing them, respectively, with nothing and nothing created a pretty fertile breeding ground for fascism and this isn’t even particularly controversial anymore.

there’s probably never an ideal time for a juvenile huntsperson to appear on the windscreen in front of you and crawl across the ceiling above you but as you’re going over the tasman bridge is definitely up there for worst timing possible 🙃

The IOC's betrayal of women (cis, intersex & trans) makes understanding the unnatural role of sport in maintaining the colonial gender binary even more urgent. @sandyosullivan.bsky.social, @michaelburkevu.bsky.social & I tackle the common nonsense of sport. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

just went to get into bed and there was a fucking LEECH on my doona 😫😫😫

wish jon kudelka was here to tell to me to stop arguing with idiots on the internet

I think the clocks in UK go back tonight. Or forward. Not sure. Is it forward

Last night, the ISS captured a stunning aurora between Antarctica and Australia. Check out the incredible timelapse created by our astronaut photographer!

Update

Women don't know that you shouldn't eat food grown in toilet mud. They have to be told. They all think eating the toilet fruit is good, due to their smaller brains.

it wasn't even a particularly good picture of blackberries!! starting to think i might have actually stumbled into some kind of curse cos this year so far has been bonkers (derogatory)

i dont even really wear jewellery but i am kind of obsessed with this www.instagram.com/reels/DWUp1D...

sorry to the nice americans, i know there are a few of you but jesus christ americans at what point do you look at the state of the world and have a moment of self-reflection

Too many yanks on the thread.

here’s a handy tip for you, bluesky. before you explain something to a stranger on the internet - did they explicitly ask for an explanation? yes? explain away! no? SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

last night was the first jim jam night for the year ❄️ and mr baby is loving this cuddly bed @febiologia.bsky.social rehomed to us after lucy loved it a little bit too much 😆

the axis of jihad and resistance sounds so much cooler than operation epic fury

The union has come to me with a list if demands

omg just reading about kash patel being hacked and what’s the bet they got him with the dumbest phishing scheme imaginable

i know we say this every time but the number of yanks confused by my picture of currently fruiting blackberries is really indicative of … something isn’t it

doing late night prickle extraction and this sweet angel is completely out of it, snoring away. it still blows my mind how she trusts me so much after how terribly she was treated by other humans

anyway excuse my moment of earnestness the doodle just brought me her buzzies

it’s so funny (infuriating) seeing the political class wring their hands while they moan about how toxic politics and society has become as if they haven’t been the architects of this all along

yes the garden is overgrown and covered by blackberries BUT that means the garden is overgrown and covered in blackberries!!!

it is quite impressive actually how modern labor governments get away with large cuts to the public sector. often it's framed as "cuts to contractors and consultants", but in practice it's just an undirected efficiency dividend. media too low iq to ask questions.

The ABC here deciding to treat union access exactly like some hard-right mining company - the organiser has to be escorted around by security or HR (instead of walking around with the union delegate.) Insane stuff.

Harry Potter tattoo regret rate is an order of magnitude higher than regret for Gender Reassignment Surgery and yet no one has been brave enough to suggest we legislate Harry Potter tattoos.

Good piece by @index.lamestream.com.au.ap.brid.gy about the strike at the ABC. www.lamestream.com.au/express-your... Stuff like this is almost breathtaking, if unsurprising:

3 litres of vodka and she stuck the eyes on level, this woman is a national hero

in my experience hippy sorts are some of the most virulently selfish and callous beings alive you can soak nastiness in patchouli oil but it's still nastiness
