One Nation says they want to tax gas when it gets them a headline. But when it comes to putting your money where your mouth is, they’re missing in action.

why would anyone vote ON, we would end up like the USA: ruled by incompetents, politicians lining their pockets, grifting for mega billionaires, cost of living skyrockets, science and facts ignored to detriment of health and community. If you cant vote labour or lib vote green or independent

The cowardice and reluctance of most of the mainstream media to call out, in clear language, what Pauline Hanson and One Nation stand for, based on their past and current behaviour, is an utter disgrace. We will remember the Fourth Estate's role in this Trumpian, fascist, and racist shitshow.

Microbiologist Jasmine Clark campaigned on her science background--and won. www.science.org/content/arti...

One nation => following a Trump-lite kakistocracy playbook •Fawn at the feet of billionaires •Create chaos and division •Gut social support •Line their own pockets

Was just asked to spread the word about this position. Structural biology and Chemical Biology positions in Barcelona, one of the great cities of the world! www.irbbarcelona.org/sites/defaul...

Super important the government stares the Trump administration down on medicine pricing. The PBS is a cornerstone of our healthcare system. We can’t be bullied into caving in and dismantling a system which serves Australians well.

Women managers take abuse allegations more seriously than men. Does that surprise me? Sadly, not really www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Very excited that the first publication from my lab is now online! Thanks to @actacrystd.iucr.org editors and reviewers for the smooth publication process. And congratulations to first author, Jiayi Pan, who completed this work in her Master’s year! @biologyanu.bsky.social

"Palantir CEO Alex Karp says his AI technology will lessen the power of “highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat” while increasing the power of working-class men." Just saying it right out loud now. newrepublic.com/post/207693/...

An informal #WomenInScience meeting at Canberra Airport, with professors Joanne Etheridge (VIC), Jennifer Martin (QLD), and Lyn Beazley (WA).

Happy International Women's Day! Watch this short video about the contributions, influence and character of #KathleenLonsdale, the first female professor at UCL, inspiring UCL's women in #chemistry today: www.youtube.com/watch?v=O24o.... #IWD #InternationalWomensDay #WomenInSTEM #WomenInScience

IWD: somehow her name is less familiar, and yet, she actually received the Nobel: Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorothy...

This is what electing more 'One Nation' candidates will bring to Australia...anti-vaccination and anti-science, belief-driven misinformation. Look how well that's going for the infectious disease hellscape that the US is rapidly becoming . #auspol

Really interesting and illuminating. The ABC doing its job.

"We know the old order is not coming back. We shouldn’t mourn it. Nostalgia is not a strategy, but we believe that from the fracture we can build something bigger, better, stronger, more just. This is the task of the middle powers" globalnews.ca/news/1162087...

Two great scientists, terrific speakers and wonderful people

You’ve just opened a chemistry themed pub, what are you calling it? The Flask and Funnel #chemsky

Petition: We will not be divided after Bondi. Add your name: jewishcouncil.good.do/unity/jewish...

Get on board. The @jewishcouncilau.bsky.social is a great and important organisation jewishcouncil.good.do/unity/jewish...

Horrific scenes at a peaceful gathering at Bondi beach in Sydney. And acts of heroism that lift our hearts in a time of darkness. I am devastated by the loss of innocent lives, and send love to grieving families and friends

Great job CNRS - leading the way to break the stranglehold and saving millions at the same time

Australia are you listening?

Walked a little of the Cotswold way near Stroud yesterday on a glorious (almost) winter’s day

So much opportunity for Australia to lead, and so much apathy by decision makers

Smart countries don’t cut funding to their world-leading science and technology research organisations. The Albanese government has to step up and provide adequate support for research and development in Australia - it has to invest in our future.

Awesome news!!! Congratulations and richly deserved @monsoon0.bsky.social

November 17 is designated by the World Health Organization (WHO) as the Cervical Cancer Elimination Day of Action. Visit PDB-101 to learn how the capsid protein of papillomavirus is used in vaccines that prevent cervical cancer.

Spring into Brisbane. Lovely time of year to wander through the streets of Brissie. #BrisbaneWalks #Brisbane #Foliage

Well this is something I am definitely on board with. Scientific publishing should not be - should never have been - a commercial enterprise

Well reasoned and new information - “Rosalind Franklin has been reduced to the “wronged heroine” of the double helix. She deserves to be remembered not as the victim of the double helix, but as an equal contributor to the solution of the structure.” www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Scientific breakthroughs are rarely unique; someone else would’ve made them soon enough. But when prominent scientists cause harm, that harm isn’t inevitable; the world might simply have been better had the harm not been inflicted. liorpachter.wordpress.com/2018/05/18/j...

James Watson was not just a scientist who was a racist. He was worse - a scientist who offered other racists the comfort of scientific authority.

Australia’s MRFF is sitting on billions of taxpayers’ dollars which was meant to be invested in world-leading, lifesaving health innovations.

Every bit helps: “Even halting warming by a fraction of a degree” will help #Climate
