Has your 13 year old decided what colour they want for their coffin? Or isn’t death a part of their life yet?
@elfdock.bsky.social · 19h agoAnd then he asked me to guess what colour his coffin was going to be.
No more telling irritating men that being annoying on the internet is hobbyless behaviour, you lot
Aidan O’Brien@aidanobrien.bsky.social · 19h agoFirst, you tell me to get a hobby; now it's an “appropriate hobby”.
HW Bush called trickle down "voodoo economics" when running against Reagan in the primary. He changed his message only after being named Reagan’s VP.

Europe shuts nuclear power plants due to drought. Now imagine putting nuclear power plants on the driest inhabited continent on earth 🙄

The United States Treasury: An ATM for the Rich and Powerful
On this day in 1944, the Gestapo found Anne Frank and her family in their Secret Annex. Her diary stands as a warning against hatred and persecution. Eighty years later, we should recognize the warning signs before it’s too late.🙂↕️
They’re using AI to justify slashing and offshoring even more Australian jobs and the Government is standing by and watching it happen. Ask yourself who profits from this? We need a system that delivers for the 99% who need jobs not the 1% who live off profits.
Stolen valor from Mr. Bone Spurs. An insult to every man and woman who has worn the uniform.
By invoking Judaism to justify genocide, "Israel is generating the exact hostility it claims to fight". In Australia, if the royal commission is serious about antisemitism, the toxic role of the Netanyahu regime and Israel lobbyists must be spotlighted. pearlsandirritations.com/post/2026/08...
Israel is losing America – and endangering Jews

When Pauline Hanson bans journalists from some media outlets from her pressers, why don't the journalists from ALL the other outlets simply walk out in solidarity, and refuse to report anything she has to say? No radio, television, newspaper or online reporting. None. #auspol #JournalismIsNotACrime
Israel blocks ambulances in the West Bank again. Shoots Palestinians, then seals off medical access so they bleed out and die. Deliberate. Sadistic. State policy. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🇮🇱🤬🤬🤬🇮🇱♾️
Sarah Hanson-Young savages Sportsbet GM Jules Norton Selzer after he refuses to answer whether they've ever returned money to victims after it’s found to have been stolen. SHY “I have to take that as a No”💥 Is it because they thrive on criminal money? Shocking.

Politicians seem intent on kicking the climate can down the extinction road. I see no sign of @albomp.bsky.social calling time on #FossilFuels since mining approvals are exploding. Don’t get me started on the welcome mat he’s putting out for #DataCentres. If ever we needed strong ethical leaders…
War is profitable

They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.
And narcissistic personality disorder, and, at this stage, psychosis.
