Snowy on the Trams

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

Two frames. 1. Lib Party Room, members huddled around table, one says “We have no policies, no principles, no vision, no credibility, no gravitas, no consistency, no popular appeal…” 2. Same scene, another says, “You’re right - Angus Taylor is the leader who best represents us.”

If the cap fits.

The UK government didn't want you to see this report on ecosystem collapse. I'm not surprised | George Monbiot It took an FOI request to bring this national security assessment to light. For ‘doomsayers’ like us, it is the ultimate vindication, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem.
Thank you.

how about a Royal Commission?

"Board of Peace" at Davos

It's wild how much Orwell got right

Trump asks Australia, Albanese to join Gaza 'Board of Peace' The US president is pushing for the board to preserve a fragile ceasefire between Hamas and Israel and progress the peace deal to the next phase.

No Australia, don’t be part of another trump grift @albomp.bsky.social

The ocean absorbed a stunning amount of heat in 2025 Earth’s oceans reached their highest heat levels on record in 2025, absorbing vast amounts of excess energy from the atmosphere. This steady buildup has accelerated since the 1990s and is now driving…

a tad too late (and only after 'they' realized they fucked up)

is there evidence for this comment, or just conjecture? Make no mistake, the 2 people behind the political hit on Dr Abdel-Fattah are lawyers and Zionists Mark Leibler and son Jeremy as they have form on the board trying to get rid of Palestinians from the AWW in 2023 with the support of SA Premier

I can never understand why the Libs don't contribute ideas to make the/any legislation better. They are a one trick pony, that only knows how to oppose (which worked a couple of times in the past for them, to Australia's detriment)

Few words.

The raison d’être of art and literature is to disrupt the status quo: and one doesn’t have to be a student of history to know that art in the service of “social cohesion” is propaganda.

This vindicates Cathy Wilcox and the point she was making about Israeli influence on Australian media

Has the ICE agent been arrested yet on charges of murder?

An elder is someone who is older than olive trees Or: what breaks me

"An elder is someone who is older than olive trees" is about asking why does the Israeli state harm olive trees, and reflecting on how I came to loathe state borders as someone who grew up in Lebanon to a Palestinian grandfather -- plus my love of trains.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

A very long and important THREAD -

The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974.

And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself.

Not drugs. Not terrorism. Not "democracy." 1/

Same goes for all the "prominent Australians" putting their names on petitions for a Royal Commission in the name of "Australian values". If your values didn't compel you speak up about Gaza, then your voice isn't worth listening to.

Yes, and Climate Change still spiralling out of control

Sussssan ironically “We should live in a world where dictators and despots face justice for their crimes.”

Trump has burned our standing to ash. After this, we cannot condemn Putin in Ukraine or block China from Taiwan. Power without law is rot. The light we claimed for democracy is shattered. This was the straw that broke us. We have entered the darkest reflection of ourselves. #TrumpRegime

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

Dripping with hypocrisy. This is all about $ and power

All you dorks in the press pack that are allowed near the man, ask the Prime Minister if reporting truthfully on the Gaza genocide will be illegal under Jillian Segal's recommendations.

Live: NSW Premier defends protest laws, saying 'words lead to actions' Chris Minns says new protest laws will be introduced despite "resistance to the government's legislative agenda in recent days". Follow live.

www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12... I’d add that actions lead to actions, such as Netanyahu and Israel committing genocide and apartheid against the Palestinians, lead to peaceful protests globally

Albo just got booed at the memorial for the victims of the Bondi Beach shooting.

I immediately felt sick.

I’m also angry that this tragedy has been so politicised.

Albo is not to blame. The Labor government is not to blame.

Hateful extremists ARE to blame.

We need unity. Not more hate.

#netzero the LNP are now even more un-electable
