Great moments in neurology.

Hey #auspol what are we going to do about ANZAC day?

All of our soldiers who died for the sake of a free world & democracy died in vain!

Neither does Trump 😂

No wonder Iran can't trust either of them.

Thing is you can't have a democracy when all the media are owned by RW $Baires & even RW journos on our ABC.

Rupert managed to extinguish LW media, not only in OZ but world-wide over 50yrs, just to enrich himself.

He is the most evil man of modern times. #auspol

Not really a Labor Party at all, are they. #auspol

Iran isn't going so who is going to 'negotiate' with?

Bibi want's whole of Lebanon & annihilation of Iran & won't stop until he gets it.

Simple as that.

The insider trading suspicions looming over Trump's presidency The BBC has found a pattern of spikes in trades ahead of public announcements by the US president.

Great journalism here: "The BBC... found a consistent pattern of spikes just hours, or sometimes minutes, before a social media post or media interview was made public.

Some analysts say it bears the hallmarks of illegal insider trading..."

Who's money supported Minns throughout his political career?

To whom is he beholding?

In my rural city, for example, retirees from Sydney now buying up our houses after selling their homes for $ms.

Locals can't compete & hospital now is overwhelmed & our local kids can't buy a home to live in or even rent.

Our water (dams) will be overwhelmed in forthcoming drought!

Problem with Aust has ALWAYS been that we import people BEFORE we build the infrastructure (like hospitals & housing) to support bigger population.

Back in 1950's (2nd Gen English Aussies) hated the English immigrants so obviously not a racist thing, just lack of infrastructure to support all.

Iran War Live Updates: Oil Prices Rise as Iran Vows Retaliation for Cargo Ship Attack Oil prices rose to $96 a barrel after the U.S. seized an Iranian cargo ship.

Oil prices were sharply up on Monday after Iran said it would retaliate for a U.S. attack and seizure of an Iranian cargo ship near the Strait of Hormuz. Follow live updates.

Have they got a plan to tax the robots big business will invest in with their tax cuts?

Bunnings now employs (cheap) kids & their 'robots' can't seem to keep adequate supply of stock on shelves (weeks before the war).

Last week I had to go to local HW store up the road to buy a garden tap. 😂

Today @jimchalmers.bsky.social hinted there’ll be “productivity measures” in May budget.
Is he referring to proposed neoliberal trickle down company tax cuts - that will see big end of town pocket 33.3% cut.
Such stupidity will further drive shareholder wealth maximisation & share buybacks
#auspol

They also sat by & allowed a lunatic to win a second-term in USA even after he attempted to destroy USA democracy with an insurrection.

No doubt they are "frustrated" by their own guilt, ignorance & stupidity like in WWII when Hitler wasn't stopped in time. #auspol

Jim Chalmers says there was “frustration” in the room after meeting US Treasury officials in DC saying he & his G20 counterparts are losing patience with the US as their war on Iran continues “dragging out” #auspol

This is a no-win-war for all 4 players involved.

None of them going to stop it & G20 now "frustrated"?

Are they "frustrated" because they sat by & watched Bibi commit genocide on TV every night & failed to act to stop him before his cruelty affected their own economies?

Picture of the week - Odesa…😢

In a nutshell. 😊

After the 2019 election result - to now see how weak the Labor Party is - and realise they really are cut from a very similar cloth to the LNP - has been the greatest #auspol disappointment for mine.

We had such expectations.

I was SO naive 😞😞

ALP been part-Neolibs since Hawke/Keating.

It's crazy to privatise essential services to allow profiteers to rape the public but once it has been done - it can't be 'undone'.

At least Albo isn't a crazy pseudo religious nutter like Abbott, Morrison & Trump! #auspol

They are sentient and incredibly intelligent animals (as are most) and to kill them for food is unconscionable to me. And it’s not at all common in Australia - only France that I’ve heard about. Even if it were common, it should be outlawed. I have the same view on eating dogs and cats - sorry 😻

The horse has been over looked as man's OTHER best friend.

They've dutifully carried us across the world for thousands of years, died for us in our wars, hauled our wagons across mountains like few other animals could.

Also, they love us back for no apparent reason.

Lest we forget.

This war is so damn confusing. It’s why we shouldn’t let drunks and dementia patients run it.

Roots of the current crisis:

Iran, 1953.

CIA fomented a coup against Mohammed Mossadegh, the legitimately elected President.

Mossadegh’s “crime”?

Nationalizing the foreign owned oil companies that were pumping Iranian oil.

If you know no history, everything is a mystery.

This smart dog knows about politics, he literally gives a shit.😆😆

He was insane & probably on drugs too.

But, why would anyone today (both him & his wife) choose to have 7 kids if they weren't rich?

The human brain can only take so much stress before it can no longer cope - in old days we called it a "mental break-down".

Mass shooting rampage in Louisiana leaves eight children dead and others wounded Shreveport police say suspect Shamar Elkins, who was fatally shot, killed seven of his children and injured their mother in a ‘domestic violence incident’

How can a country claim to be civilized with a record like this? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... "American communities tend to view family annihilations as isolated tragedies. But a July 2023 Indianapolis Star investigation found they had been occurring across the US every five days on average."

I have no idea why Sadie The Cleaning Lady is so controversial

Dunno either.

Back then that was the life of middle-aged women & men who were deprived of a better education due to poverty created by the Great Depression & WWII.

Why should we deny what those things do to us? #auspol
