The Kmart Wishing Tree Appeal is bringing a little bit of joy to Australian families doing it tough. And that’s something our whole Parliament can support.

You know another thing that could help 'turn the temperature down' Mr Albanese? Raise the rate of unemployment benefits so that some people are less desperate to survive, and feel slightly less hopeless and angry at least #auspol

A few years ago I had a flight of whimsy where I decided to plant some banksias right next to my loungeroom with the idea that one day I'd be able to casually watch black cockatoos from the comfort of my couch. My friends, that day hath cometh.

Doug Cameron@dncameron.bsky.social

Dr Michael Keating and Jon Stanford exploding the myth that the US will be rotating through HMAS Stirling. It will be a US base with a US Commodore. Sick of Marles/ALP trying to hide the facts from the public. Stanford says it’s a US base and we have no say in what they do.🤬

What is the point of the @australianlabor.bsky.social party?! The continuation of all of the treasonous Scott Morrison’s shitfuckery??? I fking weep for the wasted potential. The betrayal of voters clinging to hope for meaningful recalibration towards fairness. #auspol

You know who else has an unfair advantage in sport? Naturally talented athletes. And people with high hemoglobin. And rich people with money for sports camps and coaches. Why should they be allowed to compete? “Fairness in sports” my ass. Never since NFTs have I heard such bullshit.

The flood in Nepal shows us why the claim we can just "adapt" to #ClimateChange is so dishonest (or foolhardy): climate change will break and remake our places so we cannot live in them safely, often with sudden and overwhelming violence. There is no such thing as bouncing back.

This girl I used to waitress with in Austin, we moved to New York together in 2003 on a literal Greyhound bus. Shared a fifth floor walk-up studio that, when it rained, had more leaks in the ceiling than we had pots and pans. We used to get drunk and smoke off the fire escape and do “sad-offs.”
