Palantir's CEO published a manifesto arguing Western tech firms have a "moral debt" to US military dominance, that AI weapons are inevitable, and that "some cultures are dysfunctional." This isn't just a regularly evil tech or defence contractor, it’s a fascist political project.

The Greens UK win the Gorton & Denton by-election by 4000 votes.
Transphobia, racism, & misogyny were defeated in the UK right NOW💚
Love and hope wins 💚💚
Screenshot of Tommy Ten Names, claiming he's afraid and fleeing the UK.
Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country?
Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.

Rob Hirst has had a massive impact on Australian culture. He was the engine driving one of the greatest live bands of all time. RIP, dear Rob. You are irreplaceable, one of a kind, and myself, my family, and all the rest of this great country will miss you so much.
Morning. ☕️
This is quite a post

“These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their
stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless.”
21. It is possible that Ms Bezzina formulated some or all of her submissions herself. However, at one stage before the Registrar on 20 October 2025, where there had been discussion concerning whether both of her summonses could be listed on the same day, Ms Bezzina is recorded as saying that "I have been talking with my constitutional expert" (transcript, 20 October 2025, p 6 line 28). If there is a "constitutional expert" advising Ms Bezzina who is a natural person, it may be as well to say, with no disrespect whatsoever to Ms Bezzina, that the constitutional submissions she has been prevailed upon to advance are legal nonsense. If he or she is charging a fee and is not a legal practitioner, he or she is committing a serious offence. Section 10 of the Legal Profession Uniform Law makes it an offence for someone other than a "qualified entity" to engage in legal practice in his jurisdiction, and imposes a maximum penalty of 250 penalty units and imprisonment for 2 years. If the "constitutional expert" is a legal practitioner, there is a sound basis for reporting him or her to the appropriate regulatory body. Alternatively, if the "constitutional expert" is a large language model such as ChatGPT, then Ms Bezzina would be well advised to ask a lawyer, including at a community legal centre, for a second opinion.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Calling all Melbourne & Victoria #bookgroups & #readinggroups! Rally together this Saturday to help save the State #Library of Victoria, on its steps, at 12.30. (Here's a pic of the poet Edith Sitwell & big reader Marilyn Monroe: reading makes friends.) #StateLibraryofVictoria #ReadingMakesFriends

What a good day to be trans in NSW. A TERF has to pay $50,000 to one trans woman soccer player and $45,000 to another. And all of Kirralie Smith’s social media accounts have to display a public trans apology.
Great culture can save lives. Literally.
