Credit where credit is due 🙌 Wrote an email to my local member that a construction crew put up 70 sign in a 40 school zone. By lunchtime these signs were moved and now a subbie faces serious questions about their paint thinner consumption. That's what I call working for the community 👍

Muhahahhahaha 🤣 #NAFO

US Confused by Australia's decision to deport South African Neo-Nazi rather than appointing him to senior government position 😎 #auspol

You can make this shit up … … but unfortunately in this timeline you don't have to 😬 [original reel @ IG alecwithpen]

Zum Glück ist Erding sehr weit weg.

🇦🇺🇩🇪 Erklärbär: Die Liberals (~CDU/FDP) haben gerade beschlossen den Nationals (~CSU/AfD) zu folgen und das Ziel der Klimaneutraliät über Bord zu werfen. Schon bei der letzten Wahl haben sie herbe Verluste hinnehmen müssen. Das wird nicht besser werden. Tja.

Sounds all delicious however the main thing is that they're gone. #PeppaPigSucks

From Mt Zero to Dunkeld. One climb, one descent, one insane adventure at a time. This is Type 2 fun 🤩 #Ultrarunning #Gariwerd #GPT100 #TrailRunning #Grampians

Warum ich den russischen Ex-UN-Botschaftsrat Boris Bondarev lachend frage, wie er eigentlich Diplomat sein konnte 😅 und warum ich mir mehr Diplomat:innen "with a mouth of a well educated sailor" wünsche, hört ihr hier: Zur Rolle der UN für einen Frieden in der Ukraine www.ndr.de/nachrichten/...

We took the kids on a pony ride along the back roads yesterday and every car driver slowed down and gave us space. I guess the giant emotional support rock in one of my hands had nothing to do with it. #farmlife

We're on 💥 Decoration us up ‼️ 🎄🎅🏿☃️⭐️🎁

The U.S. elected eventually a fascist version of Bob the Builder

What if these nuclear submarine deals are just a form of nuclear hedging and therefore friendly proliferation? #aukus #auspol

» Project 2025 […] stops short of calling for a return to testing, but it does say the government should be able "to conduct nuclear tests in response to adversary nuclear developments if necessary." « Right. We got the Heritage Foundation to thank for this.

Tja. Ich glaub der Frank hat jetzt noch weniger Zeit um den Film zu schauen weil er nämlich mit Interviewanfragen zugeschüttet wird. Cheers to @drfranksauer.bsky.social 🍻

When a government claims it is committed to the Paris Agreement, the question isn't whether but how much they are lying. #auspol

The US foreign policy is still set in the US (maybe with a bit of russian influence) HOWEVER there's a strong Israeli lobby within Washington and they have good relations to their relatives in the Westbank: Plenty of settlers are also US citizens. #auspol

Ever had that awkward moment when people enthusiastically tell you about their (half) marathon success and then ask whether you got any events lined up? #ultrarunning

#FunFact - Australien hat seit dem 1.7.25 auch noch dank einer neuen Förderung 100000 Heimspeicher mit einer Gesamtleistung von über 2 GWh installiert.

The personal information of Afghan dissidents, civil activists and asylum seekers living in Australia has been exposed to Taliban intelligence networks. What cluster fuck 🤯 #auspol

Hey #Auspol 🇩🇪 just let the Taliban have their consulate. The dicey thing: The servers contain the data of numerous Afghan embassies and consulates that don't cooperate with the Islamists in Kabul and have so far resisted being taken over: institutions in many 🇪🇺 countries, but also in 🇨🇦 and 🇦🇺 (!)

Treat fascists like it's 1944 #antifa

Aussie Phil Gore clocked up his 1000th lifetime yard during this race. Congratulations 🙌 What an outstanding achievement. #runsky #running #ultrarunning

I made my own #auspol feed. Might be of some interest. P.S.: If you find a good Aussie Security Policy podcast, let me know.

Oi Honeybunnies, 🇨🇳 is locking up supply chains and buying up the Pacific 🇺🇸 pretending we’re “partners” but calling the shots Fossil fuel robbing us blind ... and I probably forgot a few things 🇦🇺 Politics and media: flat whites, footy and the Beetrooter Keep it up. We’ve totally got this. #auspol

An alle Süßen da draußen. 🇷🇺 führt einen Krieg und bedroht Europa 🇨🇳 dreht uns den Rohstoffhahn ab Die 🇺🇸 fahren auf allen Ebenen mit uns Schlitten Dinge, die ich noch vergessen habe 🇩🇪 Diskurs und Politik: Döner, Stadtbild, Espresso Weiter so. So schaffen wir das. Bestimmt

"Boomers having issues using the internet." would've been a more accurate headline.

Our Transpacific policy continues as if U.S. domestic chaos stops at its shores. It doesn’t. The illusion that foreign and domestic policy are separate is tested every day. Globally we aren't the only ones lacking the imagination to prepare for this. #auspol

The humanitarian crisis in Sudan has widely been ignored. Let's be honest - as a society we simply do not care about parts of this world including Sudan. #auspol

Hey @chrisbowenmp.bsky.social @jimchalmers.bsky.social Why is the Luxury Car Tax (LCT) still a thing? Currently it's discouraging me from replacing an old Diesel with a BEV. There aren't any local car manufacturers to save anymore. Please fix this. Ta 👍 #auspol #EV #ClimateChange

Australia just had its 12th EV battery fire 😱 ever! But here’s perspective: 30–50k ICE cars catch fire yearly. If all 22M Aussie cars were EVs, we’d see only 100–200 fires. 🔥 More info: www.evfiresafe.com #climatechange #EV #auspol #energytransition #renewables

My Apple Fitness is extremely unhinged. No I did not break a world record before lunch. #runsky #running #ultrarunning

Having some insight into the Australian Government (don't ask how), I absolutely agree that Jason Clare is not leadership material. #auspol

Hab mir nach dem Aufstehen die gerade erschienene Folge @ronzheimer.bsky.social mit Peter Tauber angehört und versuche mal, halbwegs unaufgeregt auf zwei (mMn) große Denkfehler hinzuweisen. 1/16 podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/r...

11. Die Deutsche Politik verschließt hier noch krampfhaft die Augen und will diese hybride Kriegsführung einfach nicht wahr haben.

In 2008, Israeli PM Olmert secretly offered Abbas a peace deal: Israel would keep just 6.3% of the West Bank and Jerusalem’s Old City would be run by 5 nations. Abbas hesitated, asking for time. The plan vanished 👉 one of many close brushes with peace. #gaza #israel

The most striking thing about this image? Australia’s absence. We were never part of this conflict—yet a loud pro-Palestinian movement rose here, met by an equally strong Zionist lobby working to silence it. #auspol #gaza

They're actually only removing the forks & spoons from the dinner table. The knives - especially the steak-knives (4chan) - stay where they are. #auspol

There's a fairly constant exchange rate for Palestinian vs. Israeli hostages / prisoners. I know this has been going on forever but I'm still puzzled that this is barely a conversation. It kind of says "Israeli lifes are worth more." and everyone seems to have accepted it.

Indefinite detention ist sogar hier in Australien schon krachend gescheitert. Das BVerfG wird da nach eine schallende Ohrfeige mitgeben falls Dobrindt das auch nur ansatzweise versucht umzusetzen.

2h!

Still true. Especially if you see me telling someone they're just a displaying their intentional stupidity 😎

The Parliamentary Sports Club is a registered lobby group (!) and is sponsored by Responsible Wagering Australia, the gambling peak body. 👉 The PSC is a gambling lobby group. Simple as that #auspol

The Announcement for the Nobel Peace Prize 2025 starts in 5h at 11:00 CEST 🤡 Fingers crossed for USAID 🤞🏻 #nobelprize #nobelpeaceprize

For @peterwmurphy1.bsky.social pointing out that Australia doesn't have much say in the Middle East is apparently also Zionism. I see an increasing number of activists who get infuriated when you point out that the Australian Government can't do more than token efforts. Peter included.

Episode 99 of the oldest and biggest German speaking security policy podcast was about the Middle East. That's 1:20h of condensed information with two expert guests about the situation in Gaza, Israel and the region. Mentioning if 🇦🇺: 0 - because it's not relevant. It is what it is 🤷🏻‍♂️ #auspol

Going in for a "yearly checkup" 6 months after you already had that checkup. Sure. Yeah nah. Trump is going in for a treatment maybe for his congestive heart failure. He won't be in office by June.

Soooo this is the ally we think we can rely on? #auspol #Aukus U sure?
