Ok #auspol, I have a theory. I think Spud is actually scared shitless about losing his own seat. His ideas now are less about Australia’s future and more about the desires of Dickson voters. Come on Dickson, you know the assignment. 😊🤞🦋
Paid subbies to my newsletter can see how (and how we know) the building-sized potentially Earth-impacting asteroid 2024 YR4 is shaped like a battered hockey puck, and also how an exoplanet was detected in X-rays!

A lot of very upset people in the electorate of Bennelong with the Liberal candidate apparently hanging outside a local school gate giving chocolates to the kids in order to chat up their parents. People are furious! #StrangerDanger #auspol

The Liberal Party is re-posting a pro-Greens TikTok influencer's videos without her permission BUT edited versions of them to make it appear the TikTok influencer is criticising the Greens. This is blatant disinformation. Will our media call the Libs out for this deception? 😠 #auspol #AusVotes25
So the reason Norfolk Island copped a dramatically higher tariff than the rest of Australia is two shipments of Timbaland boots from the Bahamas and some aquarium supplies from the UK that had their point of origin mislabeled or misrecorded.

This is the fun bit of a meme before we all get disappointed by a lecturer in South Atlantic studies who sadly informs us that the Heard Island Prime Minister is a far right penguin populist who won the last election on a promise to deport asylum-seeking seals.
