Mark of Cain singer comes out as trans ‘to finally live as myself’ Josie Scott, who has played in the Australian heavy metal band with her brother Kim for 40 years, writes to fans: ‘I’ve decided to embrace, rather than endure, who I am’

What a legend. Mark of Cain are one of the greats of Oz rock and have always been as discomfiting as they are powerful.
I'm so glad Josie is able to finally be her own self.

I have a 30 minute oration about how Au defo laws shape everything you see and hear in this country's media landscape. If some organisation or group of organisations cannot use *Epstein plotting to weaponise Au defo law to kill inquiry into his wrongdoing* to push for reform, we have no hope.

Brutal! But moving in the right direction.

Israel is a genocidal state and its influence on Australia is sickening.

Isaac Herzog’s visit to Australia is not a threat to social cohesion, but a measure of it - ABC Religion & Ethics Bondi changed Jewish life in Australia irrevocably. The visit of Israel’s president should not be seen as a provocation but as an opportunity — to affirm solidarity in the face of terror and to restor...

Leibler says Herzog's visit would model "it is possible to show solidarity with Jewish Australians by acknowledging the centrality of Israel to their identity"

As a Jewish Australian, the last thing I want is my identity linked to a genocidal, apartheid state. #auspol

There is no possibility that the Hertzog visit & his Zionist colonialist enterage with blood & gore on their hands from 72,000 murdered Arabs is ever going to provide unity in this country.

Australia is made up of 170 cultures & Zionism is not one of them.

I'm a lollipop lady. I always make sure I stop the Teslas. Fuck Elon Musk.

Glad to see it hit the spot for someone. I found it too yelly and noisy. Moments of peace can be nice.

It's a problematic date every year, and every year it's also my mum's birthday. TBF she's been far more consistent about it than Invasion Day has.

Happy 80th mum xoxo

Marque will be open for business on 26 January. We do not think it’s a good date for our national day because what it marks is the beginning of the destruction of an entire population and ancient culture. We would like our country to grow up and choose a kinder day.

Me neither, hence continuing to avoid Linux, sadly.

I've passed your email to Kev and Nick.

(I might ping Kev, too)

@tresvillain.bsky.social did you work on that, or know someone who did?

The good law, gun reform, was passed with the Coalition voting against it and Greens for it. The bad law, racial vilification, was passed with the Coalition voting for it (some Nats excepted) and Greens against it. Neat encapsulation of the social utility of each party.

This needs to be louder: "Of the 81 arts organisations supported by Creative Enterprises in the 2026-2029 funding round, none are games/interactive arts organisations."

Freeplay is hugely important, we have to find a way to keep it alive 🙏
