Hmm, what do ‘central camps’ and ‘final plan’ remind you of?

This 20 seconds is pure art. It’s like the essence of Trump - the fraud, the lies, the simplistic idiocy - is reduced to its singularity.

Nothing in high office, anywhere, will ever be this stupid again.

The nice part about being a pessimist is that you are constantly being either proven right or pleasantly surprised. GEORGE F. WILL

Agree, not only are mRNA vaccines proven to be powerful for public health, Australia has made a big investment in this space. Government support for this new program is one excellent way to do it. www.science.org.au/about-us/phi...

The Australian govt should immediately announce $500m funding for mRNA vaccine development.

Get those scientists here.

Just an amazing opportunity handed to us by the brain worm infested loon.

As a physicist I can easily calculate time dilation from relativistic motion (time slows when you're moving fast) or proximity to a massive object (time slows in gravity) but I have yet to find a solution for emotional time dilation (the task takes five minutes to complete but six weeks to start) 🫠

Arts and media groups demand Labor take a stand against ‘rampant theft’ of Australian content to train AI Productivity Commission report raises possible exemption for ‘text and data mining’ and expanding fair dealing rules, prompting fierce pushback

The Productivity Commission seems incapable of acknowledging that citizens in the creative industries have a moral RIGHT by law to protect our work from being stolen by AI or any other bastards. Advice to govt to take it away so billionaires can steal it is shite.

AI filmmaking and storytelling is punk rock. It’s hip hop. It’s counterculture. It’s a new type of creativity. It’s a new medium. It’s hated by the mainstream film and art establishment. It resists ideology. It ignores gate keeping. It’s uncomfortable. It’s scary. It’s viral. It’s accessible. It’s refreshing. It’s welcoming. It’s here.

AI filmmaking is peeing. It’s pooping. It’s throwing up. It’s a new kind of liquid coming out. It’s hated by the establishment. It’s what goes in the toilet. It’s wet. It’s what’s in the bathroom.

unironically, this is the song of the summer. it's been in my head for three days straight.

1/4 Powerful Owlet rescue! This morning I was checking in on one of the Owlets that one of my "spies" told me had come out of the hollow last night, and I found it on the road!!! Luckily there were no cars, or off-leash dogs in the nearby park.

PMO: Benjamin Netanyahu decides full IDF occupation of Gaza | The Jerusalem Post The Prime Minister's Office conveyed the message to the Chief of Staff: If this does not suit you, then you should resign.

Think about every pro-Israel person who denied this was the plan for the past 22 months; who gaslit you; denied this to you; pretended this wasn't the plan.

And then never believe those liars about anything ever again.

MSM be like 'Multiple dozens of ppl took to the Sydney Hamas Bridge, demanding Anti-Semitic things. Cuntstable Skullkicker said, 'It was the scariest moment of my life, surrounded by scarves and prams'. The PM, in response has vowed to help drop more non-lethal bombs on Palestine

It's #InternationalOwlDay. Be sure and protect old-growth trees so we can have more Powerful Owlets like this one.

“We do not accept lessons in democracy from those who kill civilians. Athens, the capital of a democratic country, fully respects its visitors and upholds the right of its citizens to free expression. As the city’s municipal authority, we have proven our active opposition to violence and racism,” Doukas said. “We do not accept lessons in democracy from those who kill civilians and children waiting in line for food aid, from those who lead dozens of people to death every day in Gaza, through bombs, hunger, and thirst,” he added. Furthermore, the mayor criticized the ambassador’s focus on graffiti. “It is appalling that the Ambassador focuses solely on graffiti (which, obviously, is being removed) at a time when an unprecedented genocide is taking place in Gaza,” he said, adding that Golden Visas granted to Israeli citizens have increased by over 90%. Ambassador Katz had criticized Athens municipal authorities in an interview published in Kathimerini’s Sunday edition, accusing them of failing to respond effectively to antisemitic graffiti that makes Israelis in Athens uncomfortable.

Israel's Greek Ambassador accused Athens of allowing antisemitic graffiti.

Mayor's reply:

"We do not accept lessons in democracy from those who kill civilians…the Amb. focuses solely on graffiti (which, obviously, is being removed) at a time when an unprecedented genocide is taking place in Gaza."

If it’s taking anyone in a position of power, authority or control 22 months to arrive at a basic recognition, but still continue to gaslight others while patting themselves on the back, it’s abhorrent. Put the zeal of your genocide denial into genocide halting. Put the fake words into real action

Albo's paradox A simple question for the Australian Government

Re-upping this because I want to know the PM’s answer: what line must Israel cross before he does something more than talk?What’s the line?
