Photo of a few square inches of tree trunk. Growing on the tree trunk are several grey lichens (growing flat on tree), a lichen that looks like a bunch of tiny egg yolks, and a bright red fungus that looks like a half dozen or so round/oval red blobs.

A few square inches of tree trunk. At least 4 species of lichens (Parmelia, two Physcia species and Caloplaca) plus Red Tree Brain Fungus. #lichen #fungi #fungifriends.

an orange cat with white face, chest and feet sits tall on a bamboo mat on a dark glass topped cube coffee table Behind him a grey wool sofa with a red and olive chenille paisley throw and a chrome 3 light lamp.  A gold halo floats above his head as his eyes roll skyward because he is so very good and also totally innocent

Two tawny frogmouths perched on a palm tree branch. Both have large, bright orange eyes and fluffy facial feathers, and they stare directly toward the camera while sitting side-by-side.

The only people I see asking the questions that need to be asked are in indy media or on here. I wonder if any mainstream β€˜journalists’ will one day enlighten us about the tacit collective agreement they all seem to have to not do a skerrick of actual journalism?

Single frame. PM Albo and Penny Wong in Albo’s office sitting at coffee table, looking exhausted, Albo holding a beer. Portrait of John Howard on wall. Albo’s desk and shelves behind showing photo of him with Trump, football, rabbit, plaque saying β€œSocial Cohesion”. Albo says, β€œRemember Saddam’s WMDs?” Wong says, β€œGood times.”

photo of my black and white tuxedo cat Marcel. He had one golden eye and he's lying on a bed in a dark room, dramatically lit in high contrast from nearby window light.
