Fuck this. @albomp.bsky.social - please take a lead from Mark Carney, please even listen to Malcolm Turnbull being interviewed by the Atlantic. Don’t make Australians collaborators.

I love that this is how I found out Starmer stepped down as an MP

A truly horrific thread

Unsure why people are cranky about this review. It seems thoughtful and reasonable.

If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

“The United States is being murdered, and it’s an inside job. Every department, every branch, every bureau and function of the federal government is being fatally corrupted or altogether dismantled or disabled.”

Regardless of the political motives, targeting nuclear facilities or even approaching them is an extremely dangerous and irresponsible act.

Boycott the World Cup. Boycott the Olympics.

Strong agree. Also the 2028 Olympics.

"You can't break up with me, I break up with you!!!"

ABC's coverage of this bill is moronic. Nothing of substance about democracy and fascism. Focused only on individuals bickering inside the Coalition and what that means for the pointless horse race. We are so poorly served. Need Al Jazeera to start doing domestic Ausopl coverage

If any person in Congress is sleeping tonight - fuck them

I've been pushing a great documentary from 2023 call A Disturbance in the Force, about how the Holiday Special happened. It's worth hunting down. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Btkp...

Everyone involved in the publication and promotion of this book should be embarrassed. It's not a "harsh truth" that COVID mitigation was a mistake, it's ghoulish and false.

Washington Post dismantled the platform Jamal wrote on. Discarded the fellowship they created in his memory. They fired me unjustly for speaking the truth. But I’ll never stop talking about my friend, writer, and amazing human, Jamal Khashoggi. RIP, Jamal. open.substack.com/pub/karenatt...

Hugely recommend this video if you need an hour of hearing reasonable people address how cognitive dissonance has formed around Covid, but the funniest part is when the interviewer asks how you talk to denialists to avoid triggering it and the multi-specialist psychologist is like…fuck if I know.

The preeminence of the human brain-immune axis is emerging in some unforeseen ways, no less the dawn of an FDA-approved device treatment for autoimmune diseases. erictopol.substack.com/p/our-braini...

NEW: ChatGPT allows Google to index chats users share using the Share functionality - presumably misinterpreting "make this chat discoverable". The result? Frank admissions about sex lives and drug dependencies. My latest for @fastcompany.com www.fastcompany.com/91376687/goo... tip @techmeme.com

Something to keep in mind: “These findings suggest that SARS-CoV-2 infection damages the CD8+ T cell response, an effect akin to that observed in earlier studies showing long-term damage to the immune system after infection w/ viruses such as hepatitis C or HIV.” #COVID www.nih.gov/news-events/...

Amazon Ring is introducing a new feature that would allow police to request live-stream access to people’s home security devices. Helllll no. If you have one of those things, get rid of it. Kill it with fire

This review makes me want to go see Superman (I’ve been under a rock recently with work and the state of the world, and only had vague awareness it had been released). Art matters. Thank you Walter Chaw for reminding me.

Australia has an opportunity to get out of AUKUS. We should take it. We ask the Albanese Government to prioritise Australia's interests and security, and to join the UK and the US Governments in undertaking an independent parliamentary inquiry into AUKUS. ✍️ Add your name: theaus.in/AUKUS_inquiry

Why the fuck aren’t there more pink cars? Saw a metallic pink car today with butterflies on the back and that driver just looked like they were living their best life.

Finally! I built & tested an open-source concept model air purifier that should be good for schools. Lots of air (CADR > 420 CFM), quiet (<45 dBA), uses <9 W, and ‘cause it’s wall-mounted & down-blowing, it moves air in the right direction & takes up no floor space. Always check my ALTs🧵⬇️

Dear ALP, you’ve had a great night. But, remember, 12-months ago you were in oblivion. Mainly because you weren’t being brave enough with your agenda. Get on with taxing multi-nationals, progressing carbon targets, implementing gaming reforms, gender equity, housing affordability. #auspol

Now they have a mandate, Labor really needs to read the room and stop trying to court bipartisanship with the Coalition! Go back to your social democratic and labourist roots! Do a Carney and announce inclusion of dental into Medicare! Do something to help and inspire Aussies! #AusPol #AusVotes

Again I want to give thanks to our Independent AEC, Compulsory Voting, Saturday Voting & Democracy Sausages. #AusVotes2025 #AusPol #BinNight

It's been 51 days since ANY humanitarian aid has entered Gaza. Israeli Minister of Defense Katz has said: "Israel’s policy is clear: no humanitarian aid will enter Gaza."   This is a war crime.   We must end our complicity. NO more military aid for Netanyahu's war machine.

We already know claims of Kilmar Arbrego Garcia being a convicted gang member are false. what troubles me and what we need more than anything is proof of life. Proof that this man is in PROTECTED custody, not being enslaved or harmed in any way. I WANT TO KNOW THIS MAN STILL HAS A PULSE! …DAMMIT!

PROOF OF LIFE — NOW!! We MUST know NOW if the Trump Administration had Kilmar Ábrego García put to death.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.
