Must have run out of unis to bomb in Gaza. What next - hospitals?
‘He wouldn’t act dishonestly because he knows there would be consequences’ - as they enable him to avoid any consequences.
NACC lets Morrison off the hook, believing Ministers shouldn't be expected to "examine or interrogate" new proposals like Robodebt. They say Ministers also don't have the time or ability (??) to ensure programs are compliant with the law.
What...do they think we're paying these people to do?
It will be historically significant that the Albanese government decided to spend its enormous political capital not on addressing systemic inequality but on mindless fealty to the demands of the United States and Israel. That is how it'll be remembered.
So Canavan apparently said we need more Australian jokes, & the rest of Nats followed through.
Nobody’s mentioned Bass Straight yet. Traffic limited to a couple of passenger ferries, I think.
Why are our owls dying?? It’s all about which rat bait that you, your neighbours, your council, and pest controllers are using.
Read this excellent article by @andrewstafford.bsky.social , with expert comment from myself among others.

To restore democracy and create a fairer, safer, greener world, we need massive taxes on the ultra-rich. As in the 1940s. People get confused about this. The main purpose of such taxes is *not* to raise revenue. The point is to stop the few dominating the many. It's an essential democratic measure.
I forgive you!
Melbournian. Been ordering flat whites at cafes for decades. Honestly could not tell you what the difference is b/w a flat white & a latte (other than the vessel it’s served in) & doubt I could tell the difference if the barista substituted one for the other.
Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.
No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.
Worth a watch.

"I had to punch that guy because I could tell he was going to hit me back once we jumped him" is just a description of jumping a guy
How could she even fire an arrow with those? Hasn’t he heard the stories of the amazons?
America first. Today’s Age cartoon
I don’t know how that stupid link got there - clumsy fingers. 😬
It was true, but not unkind. Unkind is making fun of him for his potato noggin. Which is also true and to which I will admit guilt.
First thing that’s made me laugh out loud for days.
I can’t say I’m disappointed exactly with his jumping to be first to support the US strikes on Iran because, to be disappointed, I would have had to expect something better from him. I’m now just sad & feel a bit hopeless.
I started off disappointed years ago - now it feels more like despair.
And Albo, Marles & Wong: ‘We support the United States’. I expected it, but still makes me sad & angry in equal measure.
my local park is full of hundreds of snow sculptures and someone has been adding museum labels
I’ve always known it as Hill of Con-TENT (as in peace/satisfaction).
And the Anti-Semitism Royal Commission’s terms of reference must be expanded to explicity address all forms of racist hate and white supremacist violence.
Words of concern are not enough. Where is the concrete action? Where is the coordinated response to white supremacist extremism?
We’ve seen neo-Nazis attack Camp Sovereignty, white supremacist terrorism unleashed against Aboriginal people on Invasion Day in Boorloo, and now our Muslim brothers and sisters being targeted during Ramadan.
The Albanese Government must treat this as the national security threat it is.
For a minute there, I thought they’d added some gold tat to the columns!
Not just movies - I’ve seen this in the wild, e.g. in Syria during Hafez al-Assad’s rule. Frightening.
Not very friendly ones!
Jim Chalmers is somewhere laughing his head off.
North Sentinel Island sounds good
