Toff.

Absolutely nails it.

More than 300 Australian university executives make more money than state premiers, report reveals Union says average vice-chancellor gets paid almost double the prime minister, with salaries seemingly ‘plucked from thin air’

My university has 16 executives paid more than our state premier :/ www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Americans didn’t want another old president so they elected a 78-year-old.

Americans wanted to end crime so they elected a criminal.

Keep it going lol

"sneaky, excessive and unjustified" says #AnneTwomey one of australia's leading constitutional legal experts.

don't be fooled by the veneer of integrity messaging, this bill is aimed at halting australian voters' shift away from the two party system.

if you're a bit of an energy and climate geek and have an interest in the australian perspective, i can highly recommend @sdhamiltonvic.bsky.social's AUS energy & climate starter pack:

First time checking BlueSky to see if Reddit is down. Next unlock will be when there’s an earthquake.

BlueSky! The new official site to see if Reddit is down.

Some positivity was much needed. Booked to see Tommy Emmanuel up close in May.

Experiencing TE in the flesh is something incredible! I have followed the man for over 20 years, and I still feel the same excitement each time.

An outstanding performer.

Cover from The Economist from two years ago "Say goodbye to 1.5°C; why climate policy is off target". It has a graphic of the Earth with an apple on its head, and a arrow shot through the Earth.

A gentle reminder that if we miss the 1.5°C target (and we certainly will), the next target is 1.51°C and not 2°C. We need to keep fighting.

Every tonne of CO₂ emitted makes the job of future CO₂ removal harder, and every 0.01°C of temperature increase makes the world more chaotic and dangerous.

I firmly believe we also need to unite & support all our Independent Journalists together in a similar way Climate200 is doing with politicians
The Far Right are winning the Media war, with Elon buying Twitter as a key part. My fear is we will be overwhelmed with US media next election.

It is not “AI Art”. It is “AI Execution”. Nothing artistic about the process.

Do this.

The only time they get along.

Robert Gaudin talking to a small audience while sat and holding a guitar, surrounded by guitars hung on the walls.

Meeting Robert Godin was a dream come true. I have played his guitars for decades. Fascination from when I was a teenager, working some Saturdays in an acoustic guitars shop in Pigalle. Thank you Robert for creating some of the best instruments for musicians.

A camembert cheese in development of stage of its fuzzy white Penicillium mould, exhibiting pronounced Geotrichum Candidum waves.

I make French cheeses, from Australian milk. Life is weird. This stage of maturation is my favourite, when the “brainy” waves of the Geotrichum are well established, just before the Penicillium flattens it with its white fuzziness. Soon it will be wrapped-up and the rind will then look like paper.

Thanks for posting this today. Merci beaucoup.

I needed this today.
You may too.

A war time photo of Nazi officers admiring the Eiffel Tower in a captured Paris in 1940. Author is Raoul Minot.

Never forget. This was while my grand-parents were young adults and both my parents were born. Don’t let the black & white photos fool you. This happened and will happen again if we do not learn from the past. The author is Raoul Minot, who took photos for the Resistance and died in a camp.

Time to bite the bullet and take risks!

I will be using this space to share my music. As a live performer, I struggle with recording. The ability to edit, correct, or overdub tracks is the complete opposite of what I do. It is challenging to the spontaneous nature of a live take and it is too tempting to perfect everything. This is new.

Auto-correct got me on that one. The artist’s name is Kristeena Saville. Apologies.

A colour drawing of a Jazz-Funk trio performing live, sketched on an old printed music sheet by artists Kristen’s Saville.

The lovely Kristen’s Saville drew this while we played a gig in our favourite spot in St Kilda. I love her style and her passion in supporting the live music scene through her Art.

For a first post, I saw fitting to share this pic I took a few months ago. In dire times, we must remember that Light can overcome Darkness.
