I doubt anyone in Hobart who’s been outside and watched the Aurora Australis strobing through the night sky will ever forget tonight. This is the most active Aurora I’ve seen. Photos taken on my IPhone 14 Pro Max about 1.3 kilometres from my front door.

Make that 49!

Super hot in north west Western Australia... 48 in Shark Bay...

Sympathy for Brittany, and none for Linda... What a piece of work she is.

291. Ancient Gaza: The Philistines (Part 1) Podcast Episode · Empire · 17/09/2025 · 45m

I've just finished listening to a massive 11-part series on the history of Gaza (it starts with the Philistines!) on @empirepoduk.bsky.social with @anitaanand.bsky.social and @willdalrymple.bsky.social and I have to say it's extraordinary. Start here: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/2...

The Rapid Support Forces in Sudan are massacring civilians.

They're armed by the United Arab Emirates - a key Western ally.

This is yet more genocidal mayhem armed and facilitated by the West.

Make this post one you watch and share today. And every day.

Understand Israel and Netanyahu are devious, aggressive, apartheid, colonialist, anti peace, anti Palestinian, anti humanity, but pro-war, pro-genocide.

He’s always been a liar and hateful cheat. Psychopath.

Coz he wants to rob us some more?

Roger Pielke Jr.’s Appallingly Bad Analysis of Billion Dollar Disasters – Economics from the Top Down In a recent paper called Scientific integrity and U.S. “Billion Dollar Disasters”, Roger Pielke Jr. published a chart that's so bad I've devoted a whole essay to debunking it.

Finally, an independent expert, political economist @blairfix.bsky.social, has actually taken a look under the hood, digging deep into the details of Roger's methodology, and it's not pretty. Blair's commentary speaks for itself: economicsfromthetopdown.com/2025/10/26/r...

Surely it's all five!

This is a mad headline... Makes no sense

What happened to Adobe Acrobat. Why is it so rubbish now?

requires insane amounts of fresh water for cooling too

Great!

There was about 100 people in Margaret River!

30-odd km so far there... Will extend the entire catchment eventually... But you know $billions at stake

Only gotten worse... All of Marillana Creek will be mined, the end of Weeli Wolli Creek will be mined... It's a tragedy in slow motion. The actual Creek at Marillana is now an aqueduct above the pits... And they will stay as pits...

They can't backfill anything as thy export most of the stuff they mine. Much of the ore is in valleys. Ore-body is the best aquifer you've ever seen. Then they wonder after they have removed the ore-body (aquifer) why the water levels never recover...

Nope

Same for Iron Ore in WA... Birds coming home to roost soon...
