Dear Prime Minister @albomp.bsky.social I’m sure the Aussie citizens here on BlueSky would love for you to explain:

Why caving on gambling advertising is good for Aust.

Why caving to Woodside is good for Aust.

Why spending $380BN on subs is good for Aust.

We will wait for your response. #auspol

Sussan Ley, it’s time we took a look at your climate policy report card. You appear to have learned nothing | Tristan Edis My advice to you if you want to avoid repeating 2025 is to pay far greater attention to the quality of your research sources

Funny and accurate.

The reason why Lady Liberty is headed out as few seem to realize why she stood for America all those years. Thank goodness Trump didn’t molest her or had ICE ship her to a gulag in El Salvador 🀫πŸ˜₯ She deserves more respect than what Trumps America has shown what she stood for.

"The center of global democracy"?

Until America gets over its self-satisfied delusions and looks beyond its narcissistic bubble, it will never be a functioning democracy.

It's frankly pathetic.
