At risk of being rude, have others noticed the extreme irony of the National Party (self declared ‘friend of farmers’) breaking up the coalition because they oppose Net Zero while Australia languishes under extreme floods in NSW and extreme drought everywhere else? No? Just me, then?

It’s a very dark reflection on the state of Australian politics that Labor (including Albanese) seem more satisfied with defeating Bandt than Dutton.

Progressive voters are tricking themselves into thinking this election was a great result, but Australia’s centre of gravity keeps going right.

#Newspoll FINAL 52.5-47.5 to ALP

this is very gangly teenage boy and I am here for it.

It’s actually sick that a tiny group of foul white supremacists have managed to propel Welcome to Country onto the election agenda because so much of the media immediately legitimised their grievance. They’ll be rubbing their hands in absolute GLEE at the way media took the bait.

#Newspoll 52-48 to ALP

Calls for UN investigation into Julie Bishop Myanmar civil society groups are accusing the UN special envoy of conflicts of interest through her consulting work for mining companies.

One thing I would add is that Australia seems to be moving towards a more multi-party system with a rise in independents and minor parties even in the lower house. So it’s looking like minority governments will be more common.

THE AUSTRALIAN® COMMENTARY Some method, mixed with truth and courage, in the President's radical proposal Despite the madness of the specific notion of the US taking control of Gaza, it would be the height of folly to dismiss out of hand Trump's astounding vision for Palestine. By GREG SHERIDAN Foreign Editor

Däily Telegraph We're for you ANALYSIS Opinion 66 Trump's audacious plan for peace seems far fetched, but is it? Donald Trump's proposal for the US to take over the Gaza Strip seems bizarre. But seen through the lens of a president who wants to put an end to festering global conflict, it makes total sense writes James Morrow. James Morrow Follow

Herald Sun Andrew Bolt = Suddenly colonialism is good again. Bombshell: Donald Trump says the United States will "take over the Gaza Strip" and make it the "Riviera of the Middle East". Only a real estate developer could have dreamt up this plan to supposedly end a lifetime of war between Israel and the Palestinians of Gaza.

News corp response to Trump's Gaza plan. Christ.

Finally a decent response on Gaza from Albanese on RN right now, albeit it's Francesca

We Are Now A Backsliding Democracy Are we destined to become another Hungary?

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.

Well, the planet is burning.
Don't let them look away.

How is that a publication like Rolling Stone gets it right when so many other news orgs are failing at real journalism & keeping it real—and so damn obvious about it?

Extremely funny Paul Fletcher spent the last week trying to run a fear campaign about the Teals, got zero traction and decided fuck it, time to quit.

Climate crisis deepens with 2024 ‘certain’ to be hottest year on record Average global temperature in November was 1.62C above preindustrial levels, bringing average for the year to 1.60C

Meanwhile…

he was too hot so

Paul Fletcher didn’t want to lose his seat lol

No idea why anyone in the ALP cabinet would bother turning up to work when you have the PM doing this shite

Ask most Australians who they think is responsible for the most heinous immigration laws and they will probably pick the Coalition. In reality Labor introduced mandatory detention, offshore processing, “no boat arrival will ever settle here” and these terrible new deportation laws. Bipartisan evil.

So fitting in today's day and age.

Stay safe, never give up the fight and be light in a dark world.

The Greens are fighting to make your life better.

Cost of living is out of control and people are finding it harder than ever before to make ends meet.

Our plan will tackle the massive systemic problems we're facing head on.

Here's how:

im on every app. im in your city, in your neighborhood. the sales associate who handed you a large when you asked for a medium? that was me. i am now behind you.

Andrew Tate got banned from Bluesky in less than one day.

Another reason things are so much better here than Twitter.

One of the forms of hybrid warfare Russia is developing to use in Western nations is cyber-attacks to disable sewerage systems, flooding the rivers with shit. How, in the UK, would we detect them?

BlueSky has the juice
