Hobart Local

People in Gaza City are facing daily bombardment, famine and compromised access to means of survival.

Israeli Forces placed the entire city under a displacement order. But people have nowhere to go to. There is no safe place in #Gaza.

#CeasefireNow

This has to stop. I am pleased Australia has recognised the Palestine state. Israel must read the room and go for an immediate ceasefire so that aid can flow to help the starving children

So disturbing and wrong

Pay attention. Your family’s safety is on the line.

Between violent drivers/violent shooters, we've fully dropped out of global rankings for life expectancy in US.

But it's a toss-up which of our violent religions -- car culture & gun culture -- will be harder to dislodge. Since most gun owners support strict gun regs, I'm going with car culture.

Americans have no idea how utterly unhinged this gun fetishism looks to the rest of the world.

AFL propaganda to offset the homophobic slurs from last week

There’s always someone who wants to take credit for other’s actions

There’s always someone who wants to take credit for other’s actions

Not newsworthy. I would have thought there were plenty of other things to report about maybe killer at large or Iran diplomatic approach. You are parroting the #AFL propaganda in response to the #homophobic slurs last week

Thoughts and prayers

Could we have their sexual preferences as well please as it seems to be a thing?

Extraordinary that this is seen as news and even in the @abcnewsbot.bsky.social

National guard troops lounging outside a Krispy Kreme

Dearest Martha,

The National Guard stand solemn watch at the Krispy Kreme tonight. I cannot tell if they defend the people from the donuts, or the donuts from the people. Powdered sugar hangs in the air like cannon smoke. Jensen took a hot coffee to the face, he may never recover.

Yours in glaze,

Pardon the pun, but this is like shooting fish in a barrel.

Omg @bardinbrief.bsky.social it's like they read our minds here

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all:

“If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.”

Israel just killed him.

Maybe it’s also about opportunities of an enhanced cross bench @jackmdavenport.bsky.social

Watching #abcnewsbreakfast coverage of algal bloom in SA. Where is the discussion about #globalwarming and the likelihood of further significant disasters related to #climate change?

I wouldn’t be too worried about SFF. I suspect the other members of parliament will run rings around them. I heard his interview on ABC radio - was pretty inarticulate

Pretty incredible that no other outlet has snapped this up for publication after The Mercury declined it (?!)…. Although that context itself is not irrelevant to how we have ended up in this dire situation.

Tasmanian Political Party | Shooters, Fishers and Farmers Party Our candidates advocate for protecting freedom, individual rights, and culture for all Tasmanians. We believe Tasmanians deserve better. Thi state election 2024 lets make a positive difference

Did anyone hear the interview with the new member of parliament from the Shooters Fishers and Farmers Party on ABC Local radio? A completely inarticulate interview which doesn’t bode well for their ability to be heard in parliament www.sffptasmania.org

The great acceleration debate Why the consilience of evidence points toward acceleration

Is global warming accelerating? Over at The Climate Brink I argue that the consilience of evidence from surface temperatures, climate models, forcing changes, ocean heat content, and earth energy imbalance all point toward yes: www.theclimatebrink....

Thanks. Enlightening!

The First Planned Migration of an Entire Country Is Underway The Pacific island nation of Tuvalu could be submerged in 25 years due to rising sea levels, so a plan is being implemented to relocate its population to Australia.

The first planned migration of an entire country due to climate change is happening! Tuvalu, a Pacific island nation, is at risk of being submerged under rising sea level, so it has signed an agreement with Australia to allow 280 Tuvaluans to settle in Australia as permanent residents each year.
