Humanity did that. Science did that. Publicly-funded research did that. Excellent universities did that. Diversity did that. International cooperation did that.

Artemis II is a perfect example of what we can do at our best.

B-doubling down on electric trucks While the Coalition claims electric trucks are not capable of transporting heavy freight, overseas usage and current trials in Australia show they far outperform diesel on both overall cost and efficiency.

Fascinating new research from a fair sized & representative Pews poll of US citizens. Negative views of Israel have grown dramatically amongst GOP & Dem young adults. Israel is losing its future electoral importance as older voters decline. The US is the most pro-Israeli govt.

24 beautiful family-sized flats, replacing just 4 homes on the site

Every new flat is dual, triple, or even quadruple aspect. 100% affordable housing, and all meets the Passivhaus energy standard (so low bills!)

We need so much more of this!

Trash or treasure? Albanese's big gamble Labor's landslide re-election brought renewed hope of reform, but in the past 12 months many anti-gambling advocates only became further disillusioned.

Once again I say, the problem with major parties is that they always - always - prioritise they own internal interests over what is actually best for the country

Brilliant, heart-rending analysis from @kossamaras.bsky.social but made me wonder why the Greens don't seem to be seizing the moment. (Or am I wrong?) #AusPol

Left and Right Populism. It has arrived in Australia Australia Has Two Populist Movements. We’re Only Talking About One.

The two-party system ‘is being hollowed out from two different directions by two different generations…bound together by…a shared sense that the system was not built for them & has no serious intention of being rebuilt.’

Capital gains discount and negative gearing turbocharged property speculation and pushed up prices, analysis finds Exclusive: Landlords ‘leveraging up’ by exploiting property tax rules are fuelling Australia’s housing affordability crisis, e61 Institute finds

The more a landlord borrows against a property, the higher the profits & the lower the tax rate. Analysis confirms Australia's capital gains discount & negative gearing are drivers of the property market. System stacked against the young & low income. #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Sydney councils fear new datacentres could cause blackouts, block housing and affect locals’ health Datacentres ‘directly competing’ with possible residential builds near public transport, one council tells NSW inquiry, amid growing concerns

Datacentres are a menace. Don’t approve them. We can cope without AI generated slop.

Because they know it would be the absolute end of them if they bent on this. If only they carried that attitude to everything else and used this latest batshit fuckery of harm from Trump to say no to everything. The US alliance is actively against our interests and the AUKUS Iran attack proves it

Israel is explicitly warning Christian and Druze residents in southern Lebanon not to hide Muslim residents among them as their forces advance.

Billions spent on imaginary submarines while at least 3.7 million people struggle under the poverty line in Australia.

If you can’t see why that is so fucked up then you need to take a good, hard look at yourself.

Soaring petrol prices have exposed a 'rotten core' in Australia The existential already became real for people when fuel prices increased almost overnight and then interest rates followed.

This isn’t 2020 as we can’t just turn the global economy off and then on like what happened with Covid - the level of capital destruction that is happening at the moment means there is no switch to turn back on. 2020 doesn’t apply here.

One Nation candidate wanted in UK on sexual touching charge South Australian One Nation candidate Aoi Baxter has a warrant for his arrest in the UK after he failed to show up to court to face a charge of sexually touching a woman without consent.

Biggest loser gets buried. No report on Defence projects after $37B blow-out - Michael West Beset by massive cost blow-outs and in a major blow to transparency, Defence has told the Auditor-General not to report on Major Projects

Defence spends the most public money on projects, by a long shot. They waste 10s of billions. A Govt controlled committee has ordered the Auditor-General to stop auditing Defence major projects. Politically good for @albomp.bsky.social but very bad for taxpayers. #auspol

Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal-funded disinformation network “Advance” is now attacking one of the nation’s best and most respected journalists, over doing his job and pointing out the bleeding obvious regarding Israel and the US.

The difficult truth Writing exclusively for Crikey, Grace Tame reflects on the prime minister calling her 'difficult', the media storm following her pro-Palestine chant, and which social causes do and don't ignite…

Opinion | "I don’t think Albanese is a bumbling misogynist. I think he’s a savvy political operator keen to appease Washington and Tel Aviv. It’s a badge of honour to weigh on his conscience," writes Grace Tame.
