Incredible the entire press gallery is actually buying the line (promulgated by Netanyahu!) that Albanese is personally to blame for the Bondi attack. No one is actually explaining how firing academics for opposing Israel’s genocide would stop two people who never went to uni from this shooting.

This entire weekend

Important call-out for O type blood donors. Make an appointment if you can: my.donateblood.com.au/app/utils/lo...

Have spent the day resolutely focused on all the people who helped, who risked their own safety to ensure the safety of others. It’s no small thing in all that horror. Hate is a sickness.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites. The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

Shame on Segal. Directly linking peaceful protests against Israel's genocide in Gaza with the atrocity in Bondi. Disgusting. This woman's Zionist extremism exacerbates division. She is fueling the fire. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

BREAKING: Watch as bystander disarms active shooter at Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia.

Stay safe everyone 🙏

After the U.S. imposed sanctions, YouTube took down over 700 videos from prominent Palestinian human rights groups. Rights advocates say this censorship goes beyond Palestine and affects the future of international justice and accountability. mondoweiss.net/2025/12/yout...

So, El Fasher looks like one of the worst single event atrocities to happen this century so far, but the evidence has come in such a trickle it seems to only now be getting verified

🔴 Gaza authorities say 22,000 tents destroyed as storms submerge displacement camps — Palestinian Info Center (PIC) Gaza’s Gov Media Office says winter storms have destroyed more than 22,000 tents across displacement camps, worsening an already dire humanitarian crisis. Office head Ismail Al-...

The Guardian confirms, months after initial Middle East Eye report, that the United Kingdom threatened to withdraw its funding for the International Criminal Court over indictments of Netanyahu and Gallant

The Australien Government has made an ad about the Social Media Ban for Under-16s, and it's surprisingly honest and informative.

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

Sydney Water has estimated up to 250 megalitres a day will be needed to service datacentres planned by 2035, more than Canberra's entire drinking water. Second feature with @petrastock.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/environment/...

As part of its genocide in Gaza, Israel created the largest cohort of child amputees in modern history. But the purple is pretty.

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

In a time when governments need to learn, they continually demonstrate that they have learned exactly nothing. Government is about being the custodian of the well-being of 26 million people - this is not custodianship, it's incompetence bordering on negligence.

"We get to invade you and you're being hateful if you get mad"

I remember Dawning Realization Month for the NFT people too. Think this is going to take much longer because of how wrapped up the whole economy is in this, but it really feels like it's happening.

Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 for the first time since records began in 1982. The amazing result of HPV vaccination.

we have to go back. to warn them.

In a sane world, the government guilty of committing genocide would be dismantled, and forced to pay reparations. Instead they are allowed to corral their victims into a concentration camp and steal their land. We live in the most obscene of all possible timelines.

The Labour government threatened to arrest Sally Rooney and now she's saying that her books - which are extremely popular in the UK - could disappear from bookstores here as long as Palestine Action remains a proscribed organisation. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/n...

thank you to the roundabout near where I live for once again providing a physical representation of the AI economy

Today @tanyaplibersekmp.bsky.social succeeded in establishing new powers to cancel Centrelink payments before conviction. Thanks @senatorthorpe.bsky.social @andrewwilkiemp.bsky.social @davidpocock.bsky.social @pennyallmanpayne.com for trying to stop this dangerous law.

Dodental Gaza veel hoger dan gedacht: meer dan 100.000 Palestijnen gedood door Israël

As always the only way Israel will abide by the ceasefires it has signed on to is if the United States imposes real costs on it for not doing so. Since the IDF is 100% reliant on active support by the US military, the US president is uniquely positioned to impose those costs.

when will the lesson finally get learned? #cloudflare

I'm struck by this clip of former Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz saying Holocaust education has backfired in part because people Palestinians as victims: "They think the lesson of the Holocaust is…you fight the big powerful people hurting the weak people." www.reddit.com/r/JewsOfCons...

Pope Leo absolutely cooking

NEW: I have obtained, under FOI, a secret Department report that initially recommended the Targeted Compliance Framework - aka, the unlawful "mutual obligations" scheme It reveals that, like Robodebt, they recklessly built this thing to punish "entitled" frauds who never existed

Gaza saw its first major rainfall of the season today. Within minutes, people were submerged and tents holding families and children flooded. This is slow death. There is no justification for why proper shelter that can withstand the elements is not being allowed in.

It really needs to emphasised as strongly as possible: Do not eat Tasmanian farmed salmon.

I usually share a new Palestinian account every day but today I am going to do a thread of people I’ve already verified impacted by the recent flooding in Gaza. If you can help any of these families- many who lost everything again- please do. edition.cnn.com/2025/11/14/m...

Weirdly, it’s never occurred to me to put up a video of the tawnies here.😄 Yesterday, one youngster was making its little sleeping noise - a quieter version of its night time feeding squawk. Dad is on the right. Mikey Magpie with the bung wing can be heard in the background, along with noisy miners.

The International Criminal Court is ditching Microsoft Office, saying it’s too dependent on US tech, in favor of Open Desk, a German open source alternative. The move comes after Microsoft revoked ICC head Karim Khan’s email access when he was sanctioned by the US for the warrant against Netanyahu.

And so the genocide continues in hushed silence, with the rest of the world lulled into a false sense that it has ended... www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...
