Science, politics and sustainability. Also pugs

Does it make sense that all states have passed laws supportive of voluntary assisted dying (VAD) services, but the federal government won't allow advice to be given by telehealth, or scripts be sent by text or email? www.abc.net.au/news/2026-07...

Albanese personally opposed to Labor push on voluntary assisted dying

The prime minister says he is unconvinced Australians should be allowed to access voluntary assisted dying via telehealth, holding concerns over its "misuse".

Uh Huh... @australianlabor.bsky.social also gave us the PRRT. Working perfectly as intended according to Albanese, with Aussies paying more in beer tax than what we collect from our petroleum exports. Nothing to see here. Why am I not convinced this is a good idea? #auspol

The saddest part of this regime is this guy will be will be a doddering, gibbering dribbling mess, sitting staring at goats, long before consequences come close to catching up to him personally. Some of his enablers may not be so fortunate.

US President Donald Trump said the military operation in Venezuela lasted ‘exactly 48 minutes’ and claimed the US has recovered its costs 28 times over through oil extraction.

Thanks and please keep raising woeful behaviour such as this. Has anybody asked our fearful leader if a location(s) have been selected for the high grade nuclear waste dump yet? Where are they? Has a cost analysis been done on who will be & how this will be stored/managed? What will that cost be?

This is what happens when you have a Defence establishment that fails time and time again, and relies on the unquestioning loyalty of Labor, the Coalition and One Nation. It is an expensive cult that thrives off public money and the gravy train of AUKUS.
