"I think it should be controversial to NOT say anything" about Gaza

I spoke to YouTube star and children's educator Ms. Rachel about her outspoken support for Palestinian kids in Gaza - and the bad-faith attacks on her in response.

The Prime Minister is lying to your face about selling weapons for Israel’s genocide - The Shot The hairs Albanese is splitting are on the heads of murdered Palestinians. Australia is contributing to Israel's genocide of Palestine.

Here's me. 'The Prime Minister is lying to your face about selling weapons for Israel’s genocide'

This article also features not one, but two excellent new cartoons from @fionakatauskas.bsky.social

Did you know one of the major donors $$ to Creative Australia (aka Australia Council For The Arts) is the Besen Family Foundation?

The Besen Foundation strongly supports Zionism & has been known to withdraw major arts funding if board decisions do not suit their world view.

Isn't that fascinating?

This bit of Banksy is fitting for today.

Grace Tame shakes up PM's morning tea with anti-Murdoch T-shirt The former Australian of the Year has called out the Murdoch media empire, wearing a T-shirt with the slogan "F*** Murdoch" during a morning tea with Anthony Albanese.

So the ABC and the SMH and the Age wimped out on the Fuck Murdoch T- shirt. And they wonder why more and more people are getting their news from social media. Pathetic.

But of course… never forget that these are the lying scoundrels who brought you Robodebt.

The stories of Gout Gout and Peter Norman are about more than running fast The success of Gout Gout demonstrates the virtues that Peter Norman, Tommie Smith and John Carlos were on about way back in 1968.

Indigenous affairs minister says Dutton ‘unfit to be prime minister’ after he pledges not to display First Nations flags Malarndirri McCarthy’s predecessor Linda Burney also shares scathing criticism of ‘man who walked out on the Apology to the Stolen Generations’

"Peter Dutton is once again proving himself unfit to be PM." The Aboriginal flag & the Torres Strait Island flag are deemed official through the Australian Flags Act 1953. The 2 flags have been absent from state Qld LNP press conferences. #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

YouTube's Anorexia Algorithm — Center for Countering Digital Hate | CCDH YouTube's algorithm is pushing harmful eating disorder & self-harm content to teens, a study from the Center for Countering Digital Hate finds.

Research from the Center for Countering Digital Hate found on a dummy YouTube account for a 13yo girl that one in three videos recommended were eating disorder vids. (Remembering YT is excluded from social media ban) counterhate.com/research/you...

From the RBA's statement the only real conclusion is they want more people to be unemployed.

Of everyone I grew up with that ended up developing shitty, cruel, self-centred politics, I am most disappointed in those who came to Rage Against the Machine gigs with me

The CSIRO pours cold water on the Coalition’s nuclear claims in a new report. Here’s how Peter Dutton dismisses the latest analysis from the national science agency. Here’s what it says about energy costs – and the opposition’s criticism

Dutton is pretty clearly not a sincere operator in the climate / energy debate. Endlessly rehashing this debate is pretty clearly distracting from a few key things:

- Why Aus has seen so many wobbles in power system decarbonisation
- How to get back on a steady track out to 2030

Stunning information here about the #NACC Commissioner, Paul Brereton and how he ignored and failed his own conflict of interest guidelines.

Wild that Australian news keeps verbatim quoting Netanyahu without routinely adding that's he's genocidal piece of shit responsible for murdering tens of thousands of children. By all means, quote what he says, but I guarantee, whatever it is, the baby-killing context is more important.

Oh, I want much more than this. I want everything any intelligence agency has on Donald Trump declassified as well as anything the Department of Justice has.

Our intelligence community sat on its ass and did nothing to help us with a walking national security threat for 10 years.

Let that end now.

Maggie Tabberer: Vogue model who became the face of Australian fashion Obituary: the glamorous model also had successful careers as editor, TV presenter and fashion designer, bringing sophistication into Australian homes

The dry cleaner stopped at the door to go, then turned and asked, "Ms Tabberer, how do you spell that surname again please?"

To which Ms T responded without stopping for breath, "B-A-S-T-A-R-D."

Vale to a legend.

Hello everyone, this is all playing out exactly as we warned: nuclear gets used as a rhetorical empty future promise while big tech companies actively and knowingly increase the climate damage they're enabling today

🚨Parliament descending into a farce, the Govt gagging debate, desperate to pass their misguided social media ban that misleads parents into thinking the Govt & Coalition are protecting kids when this bill does nothing to make social media safer.This bill is a headline, nothing more. #auspol

#BREAKING 🚨 Independent MP Monique Ryan has told the federal parliament 6 News is the "only" news channel for young people's interests and perspectives in Australia, criticising the social media ban

At some point, though, it stops being fear or gutlessness and just becomes who they are, doesn’t it?

Ii is cruel & heartless. I have a friend who was on Manus.. I met her when she was still on Manus. I volunteered at the ASRC supporting legal processes to get people off Manus. She has since married & has a baby.Her fear & anxiety is so great that her nightmares & panic attacks have returned. 🖤
