The greatest risk to our national security is a gormless Deputy PM making life & death decisions based on US sycophancy.

And a PM who has shown little sign of reining him in.

A perfect example of why NO decisions to commit the nation to war should be made without full parliamentary debate. #auspol

Trump pardons a paedophile who is also a capitol rioter. The less Australia has to do with the US government the better. Leave AUKUS now. #auspol #trump #aukus

#albo #auspol, call out what ALL Australians, are witnessing right now. This is an illegal war so listen to Australians right now or your tenure as PM will end at the next election.

You should also remember, Australians never ever forget.

Knitting Nanna’s on the case - tracking down the #AtlasNetwork!!

Now that Albanese has abandoned the international rule of law and approves the killing of leaders, the carpet bombing of cities etc and, knowing our complicity makes us a legitimate target in a similar way ..

Maybe we should re-think the building of data centres in suburbs where people live?

One Nation seeks a foothold in Farrer as it names byelection candidate David Farley will contest the New South Wales seat of former Liberal leader Sussan Ley in May ballot

Hey Guardian ( @australia.theguardian.com ), and editor ( @lenoret.bsky.social ):

Can you explain why whenever an independent is mentioned, you say "the Climate200 backed independent"

but never "the Gina Rinehart backed One Nation candidate".

Why not?

Has someone checked on Michaelia Cash and the weekend? #auspol

Electrifying all road freight between Sydney and Melbourne is a no brainer: The payback is less than 4 years The economic case for electric trucks in Australia has become outstandingly clear over the past couple of years, and the payback period is just two to four years.

Makes sense for Australia in so many ways #auspol

“Battery powered trucks that can carry 60 tonnes already exist, and are purpose designed with 450 km plus of range and are capable of being recharged in an hour. They are better than diesel trucks in every way”

“The Albanese government promised a once-in-a-generation fix to Australia’s broken environment laws. Instead, the draft National Environmental Standards put up for public comment over summer look worryingly familiar,” writes Louise Morris.

Hi climate & enviro folks, if you've been enjoying the insights of @australiainstitute.org.au's Louise Morris (selection below), you can now follow her on bluesky @louisemorris.bsky.social

This story is worse than the blurb makes it sound and I'm so sick of even READING about sex pests & high-ranked pervs & pedophiles & creeps & violent horrible men let alone having to be in the same world. When will girls & women be allowed to taze aggressors? Too dangerous an idea? COMPARED TO WHAT.

You are squandering your chance to make a difference to the lives of Australians that need it most @albomp.bsky.social . As a Labor voter I placed so much hope in you. Will now be voting left of Labor. #auspol

With LLMs, developers are QAs now.

Developers generally being surprisingly bad at QA* could not possibly be a problem with this model.

(* "whaddaymean? It has tests!")

Just to complete the set: yes you should always check - and I mean really check, go read their policies - any independents on your ballots. They remain wildcards who could be anywhere at all across the political gamut. #auspol

If you consider yourself a leftie, you really need to be voting Green and preferencing Labor and Teals. It's as good as you are going to get for the time being. You don't have to wuv any of them. But keeping the Coalition out is a sound tactic. #auspol #SoAnywayVoteGreen

People need to accept that Labor is centre-right, not left. Coalition is right to far right depending on the reigning internal faction. Teals centre-right only because environmental issues are considered "left". Greens are centre-left. Most other minor parties like PHON are far-right. #auspol

Fabulous! Well done! And thank you! #auspol

More than 180 authors quit writers' week. Many returned for a DIY replacement Constellations emerged from the ashes of Adelaide Writers' Week, which was cancelled after authors withdrew over censorship. Organisers share how it came together and lessons for the future.

We stood together against anti-Palestinian racism and they cancelled our festival. So we organised our own.

Very tired now, but very proud of Constellations!

Great in depth coverage from Hannah Story here

This Week in Democracy – Week 59: An Illegal War Abroad, More Madness at Home Zeteo's weekly round-up, documenting the growth of authoritarianism in Trump's second term.

"From launching an illegal war with no clear strategy to obstructing a DHS inspector general, here’s what Trump and his allies did this week that harm democracy, undermine the Constitution, and hurt societies worldwide"

From Zeteo's 'This Week in Democracy':

Jimmy Kimmel tonight: The reason Trump hasn't testified yet about the Epstein files is you can't put him under oath. If he swears to tell the truth, he's already committed perjury.

English lessons not 'socially cohesive' enough?

Holy fuck! They killed him the same way they killed Renee. Intentionally placing themselves in front of his vehicle. Then they claimed shots fired. Fucking liars! Murderers! He was a kid😔

Epstein, the Pelicot case and the ISIS brides are the same story in different fonts This isn't a 'not all men' piece. That’s a separate genre, usually published in the comments section beneath a news story about murdered women, by a man named 'Dave' whose profile picture is a flag.

There is ~150K Jews & ~813K Muslims (at 2021 census, it'd be more now).
The Jews get more than Muslims, see the discrepancy over one set of grants here.
