Reading has become an endangered species. Which is half the problem with American political life. Maybe more than half. If you can't read, you can't think. Then you can fall for anything. The idea, for instance, that the truth is fake news.

Trump TACOs out again...thank god in this case. Seriously America, when are you going to get real about getting this regime out of your White House?!

You can be opposed to the Iranian regime AND the reckless bombing of school kids. You can support the troops AND be opposed to sending them into senseless wars. You are not an antisemite if you decry the Israeli regime’s genocidal rampage. Don’t let morons impose their idiotic view of the world.

Super peeved that I have to pay Stan an extra $20 to watch De Minaur at the #AO. This is some kind of bullshit

The Victorian Liberal Party continues to self-flagellate #springst

It’s November 🤯

Could Linda Reynolds please go and get herself a life? #auspol

Dear @albomp.bsky.social, On your watch, a record 14.7% of Australians are living in poverty. People working full-time can’t afford rent. Your carrot-n-stick approach to the unemployed is all stick and no carrot. No one has been prosecuted for Robodebt. Santos still pay $0 tax. On your watch, mate.

Got vaxxed and took a Tylenol.

I wish Bluesky had more of an Australian news focus, like Twitter used to (but obvs left that hell hole). So much news to discuss!! Sign up Aussies! #auspol #vicpol #springst

Pop-up press conference at an active crime scene is not a good look Brad Battin. #springst #amateurhour

Israel prevents any food or aid from entering Gaza. Israel is actively starving the people of Gaza: men, women, children, babies. Israel is using starvation as a weapon of war. Yet the Australian Albanese Govt refuses to call it genocide. #auspol #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide

Erin Patterson guilty on all charges #mushroomcase

Congratulations Antoinette Lattouf. Vindicated.

Have we just given up on due process now? All because of Donald fucking Trump?

America is fast becoming a failed state.

We should have stuck with the French.

Ok so when is Marty McFly coming to save us all? #taco #iceraids #presidentbiff

David Littleproud referring to Sussan Ley as ‘Suze’ is 🙄 #auspol

This is generational change #BinNight #AusVotes25

This is great, but New England, why do you keep doing this? #BinNight #AusVotes #bananarby

Goodbye Peter Dutton #BinNight

Fuck yes #binnight #Ausvotes

Clive Palmer's text messages are just giving people the shits - they can't be vote winners. I truly think he's a bored man who gets excited to hear his name bandied about every three years as part of the election. He is not serious about politcal life, surely...

It's clear something is going wrong when Trump uses the shower or toilet, and I'm very doubtful it has anything to do with water pressure #executiveorder #showerfreedom

Today at #LNP Headquarters as they have to roll back their election promises because they realized they were shit. If they're like this in Opposition, just imagine what a shitshow a #ThugDutton governement would be. Yikes. 🤢😠 #DontRiskDutton #LNPNeverAgain #auspol #aupol

The question of if a country could fuck itself harder than the UK did with Brexit has today been answered.

I for one welcome the Ides of March this year. Only question is who would be Brutus? #trump

In a world of Matts, be a Derek.

Bring on the Ides of March…

We have massive floods in Queensland and a heat wave in Melbourne in March. This is not normal. The biggest crisis we face right now is a lack of action on climate change. What will it take for our two major parties to take on the coal industry to protect Australian families from more danger.

I keep returning to Chad- 13 times so far Climate crisis hit Africa hard. In some areas it hasn’t rained for years. Crops wont grow. Ppl starve. Babies die first. If an aid group comes, they bring life saving nutrients & medicines. Now USAid is shuttered, countless children will die

Ending the night with this. *Get your hankies* A D-Day veteran called a gracious and humbled Zelenskyy a hero.

As a teacher I’d like to add that Year 10 girls are fantastic and a hell of a lot more interesting than Marty Sheargold. #matildas

What song would Greenday sing about America now?

Jeepers there’s a storm in Melbourne! What happened to our 29c day?!

Because God willing he will never be Prime Minister

Our government has announced a massive funding boost for security, a special squad, an intelligence operation to protect the women of Australia who are being murdered at a record rate. Great work. What’s that? Not for . . . ? It’s all for a religious group following one fire? Really? #AusPol

Another sad loss. Maggie was an absolute star and truly nice person along with it, easy-going and natural, never up herself.
