I’m not a bot. I am an X-Pat. I came to where the skies are blue to get get away from the insanity. Loving being in a less inflammatory space. I have MECFS and interested in all things that may help that condition. Also a sky / climate watcher, maybe even a wee doomer. Meet my dog lol

When public servants give evidence in a public hearing, about jobs that the public pays them to do, their answers should be direct, unambiguous, and detailed. That is the contract between the public and government. Any suggestion otherwise goes against that agreement.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Doug Cameron:”In my view it is now clear that AUKUS is about militarising Australia in interests of the US, ensuring the grifters in defence and the arms industry are well fed. It is an act of self-harm and madness on the part of the Australian government.” pearlsandirritations.com/post/2026/10...

Great to see an admission by journalists that the news media is part of the problem, and are partly responsible for turning the temperature up #auspol

Did Hell Freeze Over? Mark Kenny on #Insiders correctly points out it's not just Social Media that's to blame for Hate Speech, it's also the 'traditional' media. Murdoch (not named 🙁) has a long tradition of angertainment. #auspol #journalism #HateSpeech #HelenHaines

The violence we refuse to name theshot.net.au/news/opinion... “The ugly truth is that in Australia raging angry men have been running women down with cars, setting fire to them, bashing children, killing and raping, burning them, throwing their bodies in rubbish dumps and doing whatever they like”

Andromeda in Spring: Looking toward the north from Mullion, NSW, Australia, the Andromeda Galaxy never gets more than a few degrees above the horizon. During the southern hemisphere spring, Andromeda is highest in the sky around midnight. Multiple exposures were used to reveal the spiral galaxy.

I have a lot of respect for a lot of journalists trying to make sense of this week’s events. But what I’ve mainly taken away from the bulk of the analysis is how out of touch most of our media and political class are with the lives of ordinary people

Early autumn morning at Takaragaike Pond. Watching the lush greenery slowly turn into gentle autumn hues, reflected on the glassy surface. Pure tranquility in northern Kyoto. 🍃🍂

The greatest challenge of our time isn’t to figure out how to get to Mars or become interstellar, but to figure out how to live sustainably on Earth.

Australians: remember that One Nation billionaire bankroller Gina Rinehart wants the government to provide Elon Musk with an island. #auspol

Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."

Has the Australian mainstream media reflected at all on their own role in this? Someone should write a piece on the numerous times radio shock jocks and breakfast tv and late night tv commentators have promoted violence against politicians or public figures. #auspol #media #VAW #racism #HelenHaines
