Rather than opening more oil refineries, how about we get more EVs, more charging stations, more renewables, maybe even a super fast train or two. Let’s stop planning a future that includes fossil fuels.

It's only worth going back to the Moon if it makes us look properly again at Earth, and appreciate how beautiful, precious and fragile what we have here is. The most famous images from Apollo aren't about the Moon - they're pictures of Earth. We need to stop taking our home for granted.

Honestly, I think the US became a failed state when they decided guns were more important than their own children and we’re just watching the end.

Israel has explicitly warned Christian and Druze residents in southern Lebanon not to hide Shi'ite Muslim residents as Israeli forces advance. Israeli troops will be searching the homes of Christians looking for Muslims they may hiding. Sounds familar. 😔 #IsraeliTerrorism #LebanonUnderAttack

According to the Times:

Morning. ☕️

If MAGA Christians think Trump is god like why don’t they crucify him? There’s a hell of a lot of their sins he could die for 🤔

The Netherlands just launched a platform in the middle of the North Sea that converts wind electricity into green hydrogen fuel without the electricity ever touching land. The NortH2 offshore hydrogen platform sits 200 kilometers off the Dutch coast, directly connected by underwater power cables.

"Abortion abolitionists" are those who want to charge women with murder for having abortions. Once dismissed as extreme, it's now mainstream. At least 16 abortion abolition bills are being considered in 12 states. The bills aim to eliminate the exemption for women so they can be prosecuted.

The US reportedly waited to strike the bridge in Iran a second time until rescue workers and others in the area gathered to help the wounded, which then killed at least eight people. Authorities in Iran are describing it as an act of terrorism.

It never bode well for civilization to have the stupidest man on the planet also be the most powerful.

In the 2021 census, there were 248,430 Lebanese Australians and around 110k Jewish Australians. Israel is bombing Beirut. A million Lebanese have been displaced. With contempt to local demographics (not to mention basic morality), the ALP is backing Israel’s genocidal expansion

What the TAS govt isn’t telling you is that there are rolling security incidents happening at Ashley, every few days. Out of control. They said they would shut it down by 2023 due to uncontrollable abuse, but they lied.

On my latest episode of If You’re Listening I described the Iranian Revolution as an event which “overthrew an ancient monarchy”. The comments section is angry at this saying the Pahlavi family had only been in charge since 1925. I can’t comment on there but if I could, I’d point out that…

Perfectly encapsulating the character test
