3/ Tech fascism in a nutshell: “Computers are so much more rule-based, controllable, fixable, and comprehensible than any human will ever be. As many political schools of thought do, these technolibertarians make a philosophy out of a personality defect.“ She wrote this in 2000!

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it). But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

And here’s Murrumbeena Spring blossom today for those that enjoy life in black and white! 📷 #melbourne #photography

Murrumbeena today #Melbourne

The final day in Lattouf v ABC. At 10.15am on Wednesday 24 September, Justice Rangiah will hand down his judgment on the penalty the ABC must pay for my unlawful sacking. Some thoughts.

Nothing really to investigate: we all know the ABC has been white anted by IPA sleepers. The real mystery is why a Federal ALP government has done sweet FA about it in over 3 years…

Must watch - what the doctor reports is pure evil. A few more western nations - like Australia - have just made the largely performative gesture of recognizing the state of Palestine. OK, but that's not how you stop Israel's sadistic, targeted murder of children. #GazaGenocide #auspol

For American children who watch "Bluey" it is an Australian Broadcasting Corp (public broadcaster) program that Disney broadcasts in the USA. Use a VPN, get iView from abc.net.au and watch away.

Saw NDW, George Telek and band in Melbourne last night and had dreams in the forest. 🌳🦜 #AusMusic #PNG youtube.com/watch?v=SpmG...

Hepe Bon Dei Papua New Guinea. 50 years of Independence.

Whoever is doing the advertising for the Green Party of England and Wales needs to teach a few other progressive parties around the world how it's done.

Greenhood orchids in Lysterfield park, VIC - let your eyes adjust and after you see the first couple you will see hundreds along the trails and wonder how you missed them all these years. #Orchids #OzPlants #Biodiversity #Ecology #Botany #Spring #InTheField #Nature #Pterostylis #Greenhoods

This from Christians in Gaza City #Israel #IDF #Christians

Remember this, all that data the the DOGE goons scraped is going somewhere. Thiel's Palantir went from a large DoD "big data" contract to now several across all the Fed Gov. The goal is a unified data base on all of our private data (SocSec, taxes, health records, etc.). BTW: JD Vance is "his boy"

Not one mention of traditional owners’ perspective here. 😳 www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

If you see the Eureka Stockade flag today, know that Raffaello Carboni, an Italian immigrant who helped create the flag, said: "I call upon all diggers, irrespective of colour, religion or creed, to salute the Southern Cross as a refuge for all the oppressed from all nations on earth." #auspol

Interesting that Mehreen Faruqi was immediately sanctioned for holding up a sign in parliament supporting Gaza but Bob Katter threatens violence against a journalist who is simply doing his job and asking an MP a question - and has so far received no parliamentary censure.

Are we sure we want US beef imports, Australia? Is US food going to be properly labelled?

No word yet from the Australian Government OR Governor General on how they will resolve this massive overstep and cultural misappropriation. I feel we should go straight to ‘deeply concerned.’ #auspol #lamingtonfiasco #commonwealth www.theguardian.com/food/2025/au...

Today’s mood. We tried Melbourne’s wild weather today and we’re done with it. Snooze on the couch time. #melbourne #dogs

Now I feel really guilty for lazing in bed til 8am on a WFH day. I’ll try to dance down the hall with this energy and joy.

#Breaking: Doctors Without Borders joins 100 organizations demanding an end to the weaponization of aid and immediate and unconditional opening of all land crossings for the delivery of lifesaving humanitarian aid. Read the full statement: www.doctorswithoutborders.ca/gaza-israel-...

Britain is now a state where you are stopped by the police and face possible arrest if you wear a T-shirt emblazoned with PLASTICINE ACTION

We saw this with a full house at The Astor today! Loved it. Laughed through it. A beautiful tribute and insight.

Freedom Boy Tim Wilson on ABC insiders today apparently. Why? He’s aligned with the IPA Atlas network political agenda. Project 2025.

It's ‘impossible blue,’ isn’t it?

Maybe pagan prayers or rituals can be incanted or Indigenous stories told…. Or maybe it’s just time to get rid of all this hypo-Christian guff from Australia’s parliaments - state and federal. If they want to practice faith, do it in their own time.

BREAKING: A US judge just denied our request for an injunction to the land transfer of Oak Flat to Resolution Copper. Oak Flat, a sacred site of the Apache and part of the Tonto National Forest, is scheduled to be privatized on Tuesday. With the clock ticking, we have appealed to the 9th Circuit.

It should come as a surprise to absolutely no-one that the @BBC and @abcnews @ABCaustralia are working from the exact same Israeli playbook. #ukpoli #auspol #GazaGenocide #GazaHolocaust #WesternMediaComplicity

Anything from Australia’s ABC?

Guess that September deadline for France, Australia, Canada, New Zealand is great comfort when Isreal is murdering people day by day. 😒 When will they realise Netanyahu and Israel’s government does not care about their harsh words, concern or furrowed brows?

He didn’t win. Pass it on. bsky.app/profile/elec...

Who would be THIS dumb? 🙋 🤦Two words we need to learn how to say to corporate tax bludgers. What do you reckon they are?

A conman, a liar, and a drunk walk into a bar. “The usual, Mr Hegseth?” asked the barman.

So many bees feasting on the flowering rosemary under the olive trees in our Melbourne winter garden today. Wonder where their hives are. #bees #urbanfoodgarden #Melbourne

Excellent article from @tomtanuki.bsky.social about the zionist lobby in Australia and all the blood on their hands. #freepalestine #auspol independentaustralia.net/politics/pol...

the Gaza flour massacres are when Israelis cause starvation by bombing farmland and blowing up bakeries and besieging the territory and then deliberately targeting murdering starving people who gather at food distribution points. www.theguardian.com/world/ng-int...

Back in May 2021 I posted on twitter about a journey I'd undertaken to find a tree that I can see from our bedroom window. I've decided to post it verbatim on here as lots of people really enjoyed it. So, here it is…

Is it time to talk about Palestine’s potential offshore resources and whether this is a driver to genocide and takeover their lands? #Gaza #Isreal #US #followthemoney

"Independent member for Mulka and Yolŋu man Yingiya Guluya said the federal government must stop funding the territory government if the money was being used to put Indigenous children in prison." "It is systemic racism what's happening. Not looking after and listening to the Indigenous people..."
