and yet another "shocking act of extrajudicial execution”, carried out by Israeli forces Mohammed 5 Othman 7 (blind and had special needs) their mother, Waad Bani Odeh, 35, and father, Ali Bani Odeh, 37 All four victims were shot in the head and face www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

This is hard to watch but so revealing. This is toxic mediocracy: a cis white man in his twenties with zero relevant expertise attempting to defend his ignorant, illiterate, sociopathic cancellation of grants awarded by PhD-holding committees to PhD-holding researchers. Share with apolitical folks.

Just in case you were wondering what sex education is like in Australia in 2026 youtu.be/VOOTfT_d6E4?...

I know some disagree but someone like Stephen Fry changing his mind and doing a complete 180 after supporting She Who Must Not Be Named, is a good thing and is evidence that attitudes are changing.

"Politicians aren't the best judge of the merits of scientific research" Tim Harford - Master of the Understatement - we could add "the merits of" - the arts, welfare, taxation, childcare, the environment, tertiary education, public transport, public housing, farming, "life without privilege"

FORGET ANTIBIOTIC STEWARDSHIP, BROAD SPECTRUM COVER, BONE MARROW or ANY SOLID ORGAN TRANSPLANTS This is our future, aa world using antibiotics to fatten cattle so we can eat them at a reduced price. Yet another "choke point" like the nukes in our Pre-emptive Retaliatory De-escalation (non-WAR) WAR.

Donald Trump is notorious for filing lawsuits at the drop of a hat. He's filed over 4,000 of them. Many for defamation. But Donald *will not* sue Ted Lieu for defamation. Why? He's been told by lawyers that in defamation actions, truth is an absolute defense.

McGowan: You're saying 46 Americans died, so we should attack this country. Here at home, 68,000 Americans die a year because they don't have health insurance. So, if we're going to spend billions of dollars on something…

Christians - 'Christ's ones' ...The Sermon on the Mount is a pretty good place to start...Matthew - Chapters 5, 6 and 7 "piously and soberly consider the sermon on the mount...I think ..so far as regards the highest morals, a perfect standard of the Christian life." St Augustine 393 CE

The benefit of "decency" during a “NOT WAR (Pre-emptive Retaliatory De-escalation)WAR " - is that any profit from captured assets, like say oil for example...profits can be generated more quickly

“… for reasons of decency, I have chosen NOT to wipe out the Oil infrastructure on the Island.” Note: Amoco (a US oil giant) entered an agreement with the Shah to develop energy infrastructure on Kharg Island. After the revolution in 1979, the Islamic Republic declared the contract null and void.

Once you have blocked enough scientists and researchers who have pointed out the flaws in both evidence and logic of your statements, you will eventually reach the point where only sycophants are left.

Murdering random Jews in response to Israeli state violence is violent antisemitism. It shouldn't be necessary to state that. And yet

If the NDIS is ‘runaway spending’, what do we call $16 billion in fossil fuel subsidies? "we just can’t afford more “handouts”, "cheap childcare is “unsustainable” BUT what about "exploding costs of tax breaks for BHP and Gina Rinehart"? "billions in handouts for gas companies"? "millions for coal"

..another bullseye from Fiona Katauskas www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The "NOT WAR (Pre-emptive Retaliatory De-escalation)WAR " going very well..more dead children..

Time to price them off the roads everywhere, by all means possible. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

STOP what you are doing and LOOK at this...31,000,000 light years away

The Courier Mail in Queensland has started to "Yezhov" our politicians from news. Tony Burke "edited" out like a Stalin era leftist. Gough would be so proud. Big Tony, you must have a bit of lefty left. "Yezhoving" will be renamed "Burking" in his honour (arrest, torture, execution NOT expected)

The Israeli military has dropped charges against soldiers who were on camera raping a Palestinian detainee. @premthakker.bsky.social explains, the whole story is even worse.

I know Iran is being heated directly in an act of NOT WAR (Pre-emptive Retaliatory De-escalation), but we are all cooked, and we need to keep our elderly in the shade and in cooled housing even at night (30 Celsius is 86 Fahrenheit for the Yanks...303 Kelvin for the Wanks)

Some folks treated me like a naive child for believing we had the money to cancel a portion of student loan debt

And there you go ...nothing criminal here..because its not a war...a pre-emptive, retaliatory, de-escalation action...is not a war..Secretary of Pre-emptive Retaliatory De-escalation Hegseth (pictured here in one of his favourite shots)

In cases you were wondering . . . this is a photo that annoyed Pete Hegseth so much because he thought it was "unflattering" so he got the photographer barred. I encourage all of you to use it as often as possible.

Turd should be in Prison!

More than happy to criticise the Bible / its complete contradictory recommendations and "historical notes" / and I feel a responsibility to call out those who selectively quote it or treat it as infallible.

...it concluded since the landslide was triggered by the melting glacier, and since *that* happened due to rising global temperatures... This was a signal - and a warning - from our rapidly changing world, heard in every single part of it. Best we listen up. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 10/

War on Truth

I'll just say this:

🚨 WATCH: Labour MP Charlotte Nichols reveals she was raped as an MP as she opposes the jury trial reforms "I waited 1,088 days to go to court. We've been told [by the Government] that if we have concerns about this Bill, it's because we've not been raped"

"Pre-emptive, retaliatory, de-escalation action...NOT a war people NOT a war " ..thousands of bombs and 100's of dead children DO NOT a war make ..

As they have just elected this bloke as the leader - we can relax about the parental leave extension

This is hilarious. Also, completely enraging.

We're spending $1 billion per day on war as millions of working people struggle to get by. Meanwhile, America's ultra-rich have never been richer.

Meanwhile, back in this reality

and that is 1 minute, we have been going for 4 days ...just sayin

Matt Canavan ...the bloke who described the Intergovernmental Report into Climate Change (IPCC) in 2021, as "fear porn"
