That’s tonight. If the weather is good I might spend an hour or two on my back in the front yard just watching.

I post monthly about the jobs report and inflation…but since we haven’t had an actual report in months, I’m going to talk about how in the moonlit night of Halloween the Fed Reserve injected about $29 billion of liquidity into the banking system — the largest overnight operation since the pandemic.🧵

Blood has continued to leak out under the skin. Next time make sure to keep good pressure on it for at least a couple of minutes after they pull the needle out. Then be gentle with your arm for a day or two - no lifting bags, scrubbing the bath, gardening etc.

Delicious!!! 😋

Brilliant news!

The votes are counted and the quiet shattered as treaty arrives in Victoria The first treaty with our First Peoples came after a long debate and even longer wait.

What a great occurrence for our state. www.theage.com.au/politics/vic...

Always fascinating watching people underestimate the size of London vs other UK ciries.

On an average weekday, more journeys are made on JUST the Elizabeth line than the ENTIRE population of Liverpool.

If the Tube was a city, its average daily passengers would make it the 2nd largest in the UK.

Oh no!

Brazil has launched a new AI platform that scans the internet for hate speech and disinformation against the LGBTQ+ community.

There’s lots of justified criticism of the COP process and Paris Agreement, but it’s clear that without it we’d be in an even worse place. From 2005-2015 emissions rose 1.7% a year. Since Paris it’s been 0.32%. www.businessgreen.com/news/4520985...

So she was complaining about the white bias for all those decades prior? Yes?

Farmers are destroying crops they can't sell due to trump's policies & tariffs while federal workers line up at food banks & SNAP gets cut. We have food rotting in fields & people going hungry, not because of scarcity, but because of trump's policies. He is trying to starve us into submission.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

This is amazing!!

This is where lack of social cohesion starts. Not immigration but widening wealth inequality #auspol

The only thing that worked for me was Panadeine Forte and sleep.

In more ways than one, Donald Trump has accomplished what Osama bin Laden could only dream of.

GOOD NEWS! For the first time ever, Huntington's disease has been successfully treated. A groundbreaking new miRNA treatment, AMT-130, slowed the progression of the disease by 75%. These results are likely to support the first approval of a genetic treatment for the rare neurodegenerative condition.

Not to be THAT dictionary, but…

It’s ‘per se,’ not ‘per say.’
It’s ‘dog-eat-dog world,’ not ‘doggy-dog world.’
It’s ‘hunger pangs,’ not ‘hunger pains.’
It’s ‘one and the same,’ not ‘one in the same.’
It's 'buck naked,' not 'butt naked.'

The next cancer-fighting mRNA vaccine may already be here Early-phase research shows Covid mRNA vaccines could give immunotherapies a cancer-fighting boost.

Interesting. Preliminary research suggests that getting an mRNA covid vaccine makes cancer immunotherapy more effective.

Just took a peek at the official White House Bluesky account. I think a teenager posting from his bedroom has more professionalism and gravitas. 🤣

As seen at No Kings Atlanta:

Stay safe guys if you're out. We Aussies have your back. We'll be there in spirit.

Ooooooo. Excellent…..

Remember folks. The original bluesky ethos by us bluesky elders (apparently I count?) is block and move on.

Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights.
Block, and move on.

This is what made this site unpalatable to the right early on, and we can continue to make it unpalatable to them.

‘For every $100 of gas exported, Australia gets 43 cents’: Unions open new tax battle The federal government this week overhauled its superannuation tax reforms. Now the union movement says it should radically overhaul taxes on gas exports.

So, Australia collects 43 cents per $100 of exported gas.

Qatar collects 46 DOLLARS per $100 of exported gas

And Norway collects 56 DOLLARS per $100 of exported oil

This is not just a piss take ... it's the out and out theft of our natural resources.
