Lrrr

I’m going to be a lot more active on this platform. If you know me from the other place, hello! Could you please give this a share to help me find my people.

Pic unrelated - but me on a run along the Rhône and Saône in Lyon! 💕

Let’s be clear: Israel, an occupier, has no authority under international law to board or divert the Madleen.

This is a hijacking, plain and simple. A hijacking of a UK-registered ship, with multiple *European* citizens on board.

Does the EU or UK government have anything to say? Anything??

An image from the opening cinematic of The Legend of Zelda: the Wind Waker on Nintendo Switch 2 through switch online. The image shows Link, dressed in green tunic and hat, holding aloft a sword with a black and white portrayal of a sun and sun rays behind him.

Wasting absolutely no time reliving my (relative) youth playing #windwaker on my #switch2

Can’t believe the Fitzgerald is still closed, hopefully tomorrow, looks like it’s subsided significantly.

That’s a lot of words to say “I have over $3m in super”.

A selection of my headlines over the last 19 months

My profession causes immense harm. Journalism has been abused, seized by the powerful, and used as a tool to manufacture consent for atrocity. Maybe none of this matters, but when my son asks about this period I will be able to look him in the eyes and say I wasn't a coward, I wasn't complicit.

Julian Hill MP equating Adam Bandt with Peter Dutton

If you want to understand why progressive people don't believe in the Labor Party anymore, here's a prime example.

Julian isn't interested in justice, he's interested in being comfortable.

Equating spreading race hate with opposing genocide should be unforgivable.

Centrism is a brain disease.

I swear, if my local polling place doesn’t have democracy sausages on tomorrow, and you were able to get one in Tokyo, I’ll lose it.

From definitely not an offical channel, but no less relevant. Good luck Australia #auspol #australiavotes2025

Results from 2022 Federal Election for the seat of Paterson. Eventual result after preferences 53.3% Labor (Meryl Swanson) 46.7% LNP (Brooke Vitnell). Swing against Labor of 1.7%

A graph of preference flows in the 2022 Federal Election for the seat of Paterson, fringe conservative parties leaning to LNP only the Greens preferences favouring Labor.

My seat is so cooked. I have slight hope with LCP fielding a candidate (looooot of their demo here), but I’m reasonably confident one and likely all of the Indy’s are libs under the hood.

I’ve gotten as far as Greens, LCP and then I’m at a loss as to who is next and fighting for last place.

Surely there’s a DL Grindr profile out there. He knows the degeneracy of us first hand after all.

Yeah they had the comfort electric, I imagine they’ll likely change what minimum cars are for that, and anything else fully electric will only have green access.

They changed it so hybrids are no longer eligible for it, so a lot less drivers now.

Only delayed in specific markets, we’re still on for June 5 down under. Gearing up to play wind waker on GameCube emulation is one of the few things keeping me going RN

Acceptable, practically required to prove humanity really. So jealous, I hate living in the sticks sometimes.

I just need to know if the Cactuar got them buns.

Journalists have been burned alive inside tents from bombs dropped by Israel. The footage of this is horrendous – and yet we are watching human beings live this every. single. day and our leaders and media do nothing.

“And after this shoot, I’ll show you the prayer room”

I’m in.

When is it genocide and ethnic cleansing?

The plurality is important in that statement.

Ok, but does the back half of the post still hold true? Specifically the last sentence…

I probably lost left points because I don’t completely trust Bandt lol

It’s horrible because it’s who they are.

Because that’s exactly what happened in the Gillard minority government, or all the other minority governments the world over. Parliament is not a team sport and the fact we have two practically entrenched teams in Australia is everything wrong with our system.
