Rooftop solar power in Australia is the cheapest power available to consumers in the world, full stop. I wish more people knew that.

Why is the PM gaslighting Australians on North West Shelf? Given Labor's climate-change assertions, its approval extension of the most climate destroying fossil project in Australia is shocking.

Labor's 50 year extension of the most climate destroying fossil project in Australia, Woodside’s North West Shelf gas export terminal.

Emissions will be equivalent to opening 12 new coal power stations for 50 years - a mockery of Labor’s climate policies

Peter Dutton: I don’t want to stand in front of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander flags at political press conference anymore.

Dickson voters: okay.

When people say someone was a "good man" they never mean he was the opposite of a woman, they mean he was the opposite of a child.

"WE'VE ARRANGED A society based on science and technology, in which nobody understands anything about science technology. And this combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces. Who is running the science and technology in a democracy if the people don't know anything about it?" "Science is more than a body of knowledge, it's a way of thinking. A way of skeptically interrogating the universe with a fine understanding of human fallibility. If we are not able to ask skeptical questions, to interrogate those who tell us that something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then we're up for grabs for the next charlatan, political or religious, who comes ambling along."

I think a lot about what Carl Sagan said in one of his final interviews.

Always worth remembering the Liberal Party is now a minor party of the Coaltion

Booooo. (Plenty of dogs in our voting hall, but to be fair, I kept ours outside too, she is too highly strung to stand quietly in a line.)

That tribute to Antony Green - entirely from the mouths of our Prime Ministers was just beautiful. An amazing gift, @abcnewsbot.bsky.social A fitting tribute, and the gracious words from all PMs were an affirmation of a mature democracy. Thank you, @antonygreenelec.bsky.social #auspol

Swimmers, dogs and democracy sausages: Australian election day – in pictures Dogs, budgie smugglers and democracy sausages were all part of the 2025 federal election

People outside of Australia seem horrified that we have compulsory voting, but honestly we love it here 🥹🌭 #auspol

It’s true. I see from the rules that no PA systems are allowed nearby (5 penalty units* apply) which I guess is why there isn’t also live music, fair games, jugglers and street food, though the primary school fundraisers are pretty great. *learned about these today too.

I still think we do this better than anyone. Pat yourselves on the back, Australia. #auspol #australia #straya

Patient, civic-minded volunteers! Well-managed vote counting and scrutineers! Lots of polling places with short queues! Vote in your swimmers! Take your dog to the polling booth! Democracy dogs! Democratic sausages!

2/3

How great is the Australian political system? Smiling people. Weekend voting. Pre-poll voting widely accepted and politicised. Preferential voting. An independent national Electoral Commission. Compulsory voting. The secret ballot… 1/2

We're living George Orwell's 1984: IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.

Word of the Day is ‘bayard’ (16th century): one who has the supreme self-confidence of ignorance.

A graph of atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations at the Mauna Loa observatory, Hawaii, from 1958 to 4th February 2025. It shows carbon dioxide levels rising at an accelerating rate over the decades. This is known to be due to emissions of carbon dioxide from human activity, mainly fossil fuel burning but also deforestation. The first CO2 concentration value in March 1958 was 315 parts per million (ppm). The latest daily value is 426 ppm. The graph also shows a seasonal cycle of a few ppm within each year, which is known to be linked to the growing season in the northern hemisphere causing a temporary uptake of carbon in spring and summer and release in autumn. The graph is produced routinely by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego.

Although NOAA's page on atmospheric CO2 levels has vanished, you can still get this vital information from Ralph Keeling's team at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego keelingcurve.ucsd.edu

Don't let science be hidden

The fact that this exists around us but we got stuck on this stupid planet with a bunch of man babies trying to work out their grievances is just so annoying.

AI Companies: it's outrageous that DeepSeek has ripped off our models to produce a cheaper, inferior version

Publishers: uh-huh, sure

Recipe book cover mockup. Vibrant photo of food ona slate grey counter. Tomatoes, limes, street tacos, a red enamel skillet with beans, chili peppers, salsa, corn tortillas stuffed with picadillo. A graphic effect in the center appears to reveal text by tearing this photo. The text reads "HOW TO COOK LIKE THE PEOPLE YOU JUST DEPORTED Authentic ethnic flavors for bigots who don't deserve them"

has anyone tried resisting

Cartoon- scene is two billboards beside eachother. First billboard has pic of Albanese grinning with thumbs up & says "Labor: Bound to Disappoint" Second billboard has pic of Dutton grinning with thumbs up & says "Coalition: You have NO idea how low we'll go" Two people are looking at the billboards with one saying "I"m all for truth in political advertising but it CAN get a bit depressing."
