Ngl, quite enjoying the way Aussie indie media rallied to make amends for the mainstream debacle around the Chris Hedges tour. Many fine people played their parts, did their bit.

Folks, if they're willing to lie to you about a genocide, what won't they lie to you about?

I found a baby maggie next to the cat in our backyard. I raced out & picked it up & told him it wasn’t safe. Mum & dad were anxiously waiting on the fence. I let him go over the fence. Next day same scenario & I felt that mum & dad had sent him back to say thank you.
Love the maggies 😍

Inpex quietly admitted that its Ichthys LNG project drastically underreported its emissions of the cancer-causing chemical benzene by more than 13,000%.

The gas industry is continuing to harm our health and our climate, yet our governments are failing to act.

Get over it you wanker 🙄

A few short hours ago, 7 children and 3 women were murdered by Israel when an IOF tank fired on a Palestinian family as they tried to return home in Gaza.

Did you find this news "extraordinarily moving," @senatorwong.bsky.social? Is this the "pause" that induced you to fawn over Trump? #auspol

My good God, reading about USA politics is both exhausting and scary.
Here in Australia, we should be both alert and alarmed.
Protect our precious and fragile democracy - with its checks and balances- to stop the contagion.

The betrayal of Palestinian journalists Hear Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author Chris Hedges deliver his cancelled National Press Club speech.

On 20 Oct Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges was scheduled to speak at the National Press Club. Despite written confirmation the Press Club cancelled the talk, reportedly citing an interest in “balancing out our program”. He will now deliver the talk in Sydney instead. #auspol

Unconstitutional "evil". Albo's plan for more government secrecy - Michael West Albanese's plan to amend FOI laws and increase government secrecy may be unconstitutional, the LNP, Greens, and Independents are opposing it.

#BREAKING : The Australian Parliament Sports Club has just DE-REGISTERED itself as a lobby group... despite still being run by the Australian gambling lobby.
The change relieves our PM from having to explain why he's the PRESIDENT of an organisation designed to lobby HIS OWN GOVERNMENT.

Just one of the reasons why ABC Australia, the national broadcaster should stop prioritising news from the USA and focus closer to home.

Russia invades Ukraine.

Yes! How about it @albomp.bsky.social . The Constitution and High Court interpretation of its Heads of (Federal) Power gives you the legal - let alone moral - duty to do so. #auspol
