You'd be amazed at the insane takes some engineering students come to while the rest of the class was spot on. I Still try and fix the class for the next batch.

2-panel SMBC comic update. A cartoon beaver and a duck are meeting in the day of night. The duck asks "you forgot to bring a condom?" to which the beaver replies "come on, baby. We're not even in the same clade." Later, both cartoon animals are seen sitting in a modern living room surrounded by baby platypus. Both parents look depressed.

Later it turns out the duck was getting with a porcupine and had a litter of echidnas.

Multiculturalism And Extremism Are Sabotaging The West | Henry Ergas AO Henry Ergas joins John to explore the erosion of historical understanding, the rise of ideological extremism, and the weakening of social cohesion across %

Multiculturalism And Extremism Are Sabotaging The West
'a balance of freedom & order are needed to sustain societies or else they will risk succumbing to the enemies of democracy, who possess a vitriolic hatred of the present, yet no unifying vision of the future' johnanderson.net.au/multicultura...

Henry Ergas addresses AIJAC luncheon It has become 'entirely acceptable to view Australia as a project that is reprehensible at best, genocidal at worst, forever scarred by the defects of its birth'

'Ergas was addressing contemporary threats to Australian social cohesion stemming from a variety of structural factors as well as the sinister ideological alliance between segments of Australia’s Muslim communities and the progressive left.' www.australianjewishnews.com/henry-ergas-...

Henry Ergas wrote in The Australian Pope Leo is guilty of repudiating the ‘just war’ doctrine That our government has urged Israel to stand down confirms its moral evasiveness; that Pope Leo has done likewise is a grievous repudiation of the just war tradition https://www.theaustralian.com.au/commentary/pope-leo-guilty-of-repudiating-the-just-war-doctrine/news-story/0accaddf7cdd12b9d80102beb993aae9

Murdoch's Australian is apparently publishing an Op Ed from jewish Economist Henry Ergas criticising the catholic Pope for having an alternative religious interpretation to Netanyahu.

Did RM become an Israeli? Or does RM hates Muslims so much that anyone who suggests coexistence is considered evil?

If you're financially and physically able I cannot recommend the new Bangarra production, Flora, at the Opera House highly enough.
At one point my face started aching and I realised it was because my jaw was hanging open in amazement. Just spectacular.

Single frame. Man standing in front of woman in wheelchair says: “Instead of complaining about the expensive nuclear subs we may never see, or our increasing expenditure on war machinery, maybe think about how properly funding YOUR NEEDS makes us LESS SAFE as a country…”

@nionwomen.bsky.social well done to everyone at Not In Out Name in hitting over a hundred thousand signatures. Wonderful work ladies our community is sending much love to you all on this amazing achievement 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

This is HUGE!

100,000 women have now signed the @nionwomen.bsky.social petition.

It means conclusively that “gender-critical” transphobes, dishonest politicians, like Streeting and journalists claim that there is a “conflict of rights” between cis women and trans people they are lying.

End of.

It's 88 degrees out today... do we really have to wait until August for Summer Streets?

Phenomenon of homes being used for investment or 2nd homes is rare overall—but a major issue in small sections of big, rich cities like New York. Some areas of Midtown & Upper East Side have >30% overall housing vacancy, with a large share of that coming from homes being used as vacation properties.

Here’s the thing—especially on April 15: cutting the IRS isn't some abstract budget trim. It's a tax cut delivered through weaker enforcement. And it mostly goes to people with the most scope to hide income.

In two decades one of the poorest countries per capita on the planet installed more than solar generation for more than 6× the historical output of Australia's National Electricity Market.

India hits 150 GW solar milestone The country added around 44.6 GW of new PV capacity in fiscal year 2026, according to new figures released by JMK Research.

With 150GW solar, India achieved its target of having 50% of its total installed electricity capacity from non-fossil fuel sources in June 2025, reaching this milestone 5 years ahead of its original 2030 deadline set under the Paris Agreement www.pv-magazine.com/2026/04/10/i...

Mamdani's DOT Responds to Astoria Bike Lane Backlash... With an Even Longer Bike Lane - Streetsblog New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's latest proposal for 31st Street extends a proposed bike lane to cover the entire spine of Astoria.

NEW: After an anti-bike lane lawsuit sent the Department of Transportation back to the drawing board on 31st Street in Astoria, the agency is responding… with a plan for an even longer bike lane on the deadly corridor.

True. Riding at over 50km/h down the cobble stone Champs-Élysées at the end of the Tour de France looked unpleasant.
