still thinking about the Montana knife maker who said you don't have to worry about tariffs if you buy american. and then three months later, he realized he imports swedish steel and german equipment. and even MiUSA equipment costs $100k more now because of tariffs

Becoming a paramedic changed me. But not in the ways I expected From trampolines to smartwatches, the job has changed how I see everyday life. It’s a kind of hyper-awareness that doesn’t switch off

This article serves the same useful purpose as those pre-titles sequences on β€˜Six Feet Under’. Reminds you of things to never do. (eg. Standing up while riding in a convertible) www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

Inside the Crisis at the Anti-Defamation League The group used to believe the rights of Jews were inextricable from the rights of everyone else. Its war against anti-Zionism has changed everything.

This is a must read on how the ADL radicalized itself under Jonathan Greenblatt and became a deeply illiberal and authoritarian organization solely committed to censoring its critics and shielding Israel from criticism.

Chris Minns insists he does β€œnot regret” saying No to a peaceful protest against Israel’s Genocide on the Sydney Harbour Bridge, comparing protesters to an β€œanti-vaxxer group” & says it’s β€œnot open-season for protest”

Shameful. History will judge Mr Minns harshly.

A big rise in large corporations raking in profits by abusing their market power is impacting inflation, as shown by modelling buried in the Productivity Commission’s tax reform proposal.

Crikey article headline Never mind company tax β€” reform proposal reveals Australia’s real inflation cause A big rise in large corporations raking in profits by abusing their market power is impacting inflation, as shown by modelling buried in the Productivity Commission’s tax reform proposal.

Back in 2023, quite a few self-aggrandising economist types, desperate to get attention from the AFR, plus the RBA & Treasury tried to tell @australiainstitute.org.au that our work showing rising excess profits were causing inflation was wrong.

if you want to have a nice and relaxing sunday, do not watch the new Hulu documentary on Hurricane Katrina. if you want to shake with rage and anger over the total failure of this nation's government and media establishment, watch the Hulu documentary on Katrina (this is a recommendation)

Police have announced the discovery of a monstrous child sex trafficking ring in a concrete bunker in rural, deep red Alabama. So why does it feel like they discovered it at a pizza parlor in urban, deep blue Washington, DC?

What I'd say to you is, many people accuse my Coalition of not offering a hand up to people who have fallen on hard times. To prove how untrue that is my Deputy PM has offered Jevon the role of ACT party president until Tim Jago is released.
