Yes, all going well, we see. A stadium we can't afford but don't worry - those getting rid of those "excess" 1.7k jobs will fix things. Oh, and all the back-end staff at schools that totally won't shift the administrative burden to already overburdened teachers. FFS. Useless.

With Southern calamari numbers falling in parts of Tasmania, @imas-utas.bsky.social scientists are diving into how environment and fishing pressure shape spawning over the next three years, helping keep calamari thriving in Tasmanian waters: utas.au/iX

Maybe we need to enrol taxi drivers in our Paramedicine units? JFC #taspol

Front page today. The median rent for a room in a Tasmanian sharehouse is now unaffordable for singles earning the full-time minimum wage. Let me repeat that. *A room in a share house* is now unaffordable on a full-time wage. This is storming the barricades time, people. #auspol #politas

An absolute sea of striking teachers assembled outside Trades Hall now. Nothing better than seeing workers standing up and fighting back together for a better deal! ✊ ❤️

Who knew that there was enough information about the histology of cured pork to write an entire textbook about?!

The president had his DOJ seizing ballots while he is trying to force Republicans to enact new voter suppression laws. Our democracy is in danger. I founded Democracy Docket to help keep you informed on the fight ahead. Support its work and subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Funding for frontline FDSV services is still only 80% of what the sector has spent a decade calling for. That's 1 in 5 women being turned away. If this government can afford to hand $368b to Trump for AUKUS submarines, why can’t they afford to fully fund women and children’s safety?

There has been good work done to bring violence against women into the spotlight and encourage women to seek help. But if that help is not there because there isn’t enough funding, we are condemning women to homelessness, violence or death.

This week, advocates gathered in Parliament House to demand the government make women’s safety a priority in the lead up to International Women’s Day and fully fund frontline services. The Greens proudly and loudly back those demands.

Just me and my PALS #HistoJoke #Spleen

Congratulations, son, you’re now a page 3 * man *, in today’s The Age! In all seriousness, we simply couldn’t be prouder. If anyone would still like to donate to Rohan’s fundraiser for youth mental health, you can, at www.mycause.com.au/page/385454/.... Thanks for everyone's support!

Check out our recent episode, featuring the winners of our STEMM Solutions competition for girls, femme, and non-binary students in Years 10 to 12 across Tasmania. Their ideas show how young people are thinking of solving local challenges and reimagining the future of STEMM 🔭🧪🌿 (2/2)

✨ International Day of Women and Girls in Science (11 Feb) ✨ Today we celebrate the curiosity, creativity, and courage of women and girls in science and the many ways they are reshaping what STEMM looks like. (1/2) #InternationalDayOfWomenAndGirlsInScience #WomenInSTEM #GirlsInScience #STEMM

That social cohesion’s going really well, great idea Labor 👏🤩

ICE level brutality from @nswpolice.bsky.social in Sydney. These officers should be charged with assault.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

This fool is going to lead us into a new world war because he never got a trophy. The man is mentally ill and needs to be removed from office before it happens. 25th Amendment this bloke.

How disgusting is this?! I can't believe it's 2026 and this bullshit still exists. @wmojo.bsky.social you should be ashamed.

So, question to the void: Can Minnesota State Prosecutors collect evidence for the murder of Ms Good, interview and record witness statements, perform forensics, etc... and then pass that on to the DoJ when the next President is elected (assuming 49 doesn't preemptively pardon the murderer)?

Annual gripe about parking. They've increased parking by almost 11% to virtually $4000 per year for 2026 for staff based where I park. It's maddening 😡

How many other major industries would get away with crap like this?

a $4040 fine!? what an absolute joke #toxic #stopoceanfarmedsalmon #tasmania

I've been working with Dr Tamara Franz-Odendaal & Dr Karen Pinder for the AAA, to create accompanying histology images for the wonderful illustrations of Dr Mikaela Stiver in their Histology Coloring Book. This is an open resource. histologycoloringbook.com Please share.

Astounded given the demand for aged care, particularly nursing homes, is about to ⬆️ sig. in Tasmania. Over the next 15 yrs, the no. ppl aged 85+ will ⬆️ 106% and we will not have sufficient workforce to provide the level of care needed to ‘age in place’. #politas www.themercury.com.au/news/tasmani...

cost of adobe per month goes from $87 to $113 - utterly unsustainable for drawing software i already hate - looking at gimp but not convinced - can't use procreate i'm on a wacom - i'm so mad

I call on the Australian government to #RaiseTheRate of all support payments to a living wage. This would be the single most effective way to lift the productivity, quality of life, and well-being of the whole country. #CommitToALivingWage

I hear the Epstein Ballroom will be illuminated solely by gaslighting.

Want an excuse to move to Tasmania (Hobart)? It's honestly a beautiful place to live and enjoy nature with an opportunity for work-life balance. We're looking for a lecturer/senior lecturer in biomedicine. Plus, you'll have the added bonus of me for a colleague. careers.utas.edu.au/ci/en/job/50...

What if the Rapture happened and no-one ascended because the people that believed in it are actually terrible Christians?

Kilmeade sounds like a comic book villain's name (like Kilgrave from Jessica Jones). I guess he's living up to his name's potential?

I'll be on ABC Hobart radio (www.abc.net.au/listen/live/...) after the 3pm news for our regular Science Club chat with Joel Rheinberger. Today: vomiting cells (me), helping blind dogs navigate the world (Dr Meredith Castles), and the relationship of exercise and inflammation (Dr Eddy Roccati).

For students: how can we quantify neurodegeneration using #microscopy? One way is to use a marker like 🟡 below (SMI32). It identifies a population of pyramidal neurons that is lost early in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer and Parkinson. And after some viral infections 👀👀 #Neuroscience

The mulgara must be protected at all costs!

democrat melissa hortman was literally politically assassinated in her fucking home less than 3 months ago and now everyone wants to comment on how bad it’ll be now like ok

Jarjum and Joey. Always worth a repost. 🖤💛❤️

Today’s Supreme Court ruling gives ICE the green light to stop someone just for speaking Spanish in a Home Depot parking lot. That’s racial profiling — and it’s wrong.
