Did you see this? Home Affairs has denied a visa to the ex-ASIO source who tried to warn about the Bondi gunmen. This is a deeply political decision, and now the Royal Commission may never hear his evidence. It looks like a stitch up by those who don't want this on the record.

Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal.

If this government was serious about accountability it would be building an independent AI regulator with real statutory powers, not just another door inside the PM's office for tech lobbyists to knock on.

Not so sure it's in his power to override the Privacy Act.

Senator David Shoebridge@davidshoebridge.bsky.social · 3w ago

The PM today said he will allow government data to be consumed by US AI companies which raises real questions of consent, privacy and surveillance risk for every Australian. It's hard to see how that's in the public interest.

Happy NAIDOC 🖤 we're out here making games. I had a really lovely chat about making a rhythm game that honours Country, and working with Wali Studios on Wyrmspace Tactics.

Finally got to play LOTR: Fate of the Fellowship with @chadtoprak.bsky.social! ☺️ Took a while to set up and wrap our heads around rules, but it was worth it.

Unlike other industries, the gaming industry is unable to take a stand against the ethnic cleansing in Palestine. Big companies dont want the risk, individuals dont know what to do. If you believe in this medium & want to help. This is a game about Palestine needs your help Launchgood.com/1948

Deeply disrespectful to the entire Australian cultural sector that the Office of the Arts can't be bothered actually reading all the submissions people are working very hard on for the National Cultural Policy, and instead will be asking genAI for a summary. www.arts.gov.au/have-your-sa...

Palestinian stories were always silenced This enabled everything to happen. From the Nakba to the current genocide Telling our stories is not a luxury Either it will raise awareness to stop the ethnic cleansing Or it will stay as a memory of a people lived & resisted Support NOW launchgood.com/1948

From the No Games for Genocide talk: "And this is just a reminder of what we can accomplish if we come together. Something like a boycott, it doesn't make an impact when there's one of us, but when it's all of us working together, we're able to create something more powerful."

"If 'no one left behind' is to mean anything, Australia should immediately cut all military ties, close the Israeli embassy, and impose real sanctions on a state that treats our citizens and international law with contempt." #auspol

Here's @boganintel.bsky.social. "As Aussie activists are brutalised, 'No one left behind' is a just a slogan for Albanese"

You mean IGN, owned by Ziff Davis, founded by William Ziff, a Zionist activist and serving president of the Zionist Organization of America "killed" an article showcasing a Palestinian game based on the true story of the Nakba?

BREAKING: Labor is bringing Landforces Weapons expo back to Melbourne in 2028 The people of Melbourne could not have made it more clear: we do not want this weapons expo in our peaceful city.  Labor is putting the profits and deals of war mongers over what is best for our city and community.

Canadians, if it helps, there's a form on the page where all you have to do is fill in your name, email, postal code, etc and it'll be sent to your local MPP. It's incredibly important that you speak up on this matter because this is a road we do not want to go down.

Israel is a rogue state which is kidnapping Australian citizens on the high seas in complete disregard for international law. It’s nothing less than piracy and the Australian government needs to stop hand-wringing and take action. Call or email your MP now.

Over a year ago, I had a call with @duckvalentine.bsky.social talking about Dreams on a Pillow. At that time the article was killed by executives. She was brave enough to fight against that, but it was out of her control I chose not to talk about it publicly to protect Rebekah from what could happen
