FOLKS - when we stop burning fossil fuels, oversizing agriculture and killing nature, the warming of Earth also stops worsening No floppy optimism here; no hollow appeal to hope. The laws of physics that created this problem also govern the fact we can choose to stop it.
Remember that, while it was waiting for Israel to exonerate itself for killing an Australian aid worker, our government invited Israel’s head of state here for a propaganda tour.
Penny Wong allegedly expressed “outrage” about the Zomi Frankcom whitewash. Legacy media neglected to include the accurate qualifier “confected”. If the Israeli ambassador is not sent home, this government has taken craven capitulation to a whole new level. #GazaGenocide #auspol

“First Nations witnesses brought Parliament evidence of a terrorist bomb, death threats and lives disfigured by racism. Governments sent empty chairs. The media supplied silence.”
Ten Broken Hill child care centres are found to have lead in soil waay above safe limits and this cunt here - Tony Chappel, CEO of the (optional) NSW EPA - thinks it's down to the owners of the child care centres to inform parents of the hazard.
Startled to hear the Housing and Homelessness Minister Clare O'Neil declare these propositions as "really valuable". She's only been in the job since July 2024. I don't expect anything to come of it, don't know why they all bother at all. I prefer the cold silence of market forces to bullshit.
If you've never taken a stance on behalf of ducks, these alarming developments allow you to take a stance against violence against women, women in public office and members of the public in general. No minor matter.

Any "scientist" or "environmental advocate" promoting carbon or biodiversity offsetting is a charlatan. And anyone claiming their scheme has more integrity than other offsetting schemes is just putting gold paint on a turd. Stopping climate change and protecting biodiversity both require public
Nope. The federal government needs to step in. We can’t have privately owned prisons in Australia. This thing needs to end. Prisons are an essential government service. They can’t be run for profit. #AusPol @australianlabor.bsky.social

"I'm an ecologist because I love nature and birds and things, and I felt sick in my stomach. "There were basically piles of young pelicans that looked like they'd been standing around in little creches and all of a sudden just collapsed on each other, like they died quite quickly."
Hundreds of pelicans found dead in outback NSW
Bird flu is ruled out as the cause of the deaths of hundreds of pelicans discovered by an ecologist at the Menindee Lakes.

Bees sleep 5–8 hours a day, sometimes inside flowers, and they often rest together while gently holding each other's feet. Nature is full of amazing little wonders.

The Spanish dancer (Hexabranchus sanguineus) is a very large crimson to blood-red dorid nudibranch (sea slug) of the Indo-Pacific, named for the flamenco-like way it swims by undulating its flared mantle. That absolutely DOES look like a flamenco dancer's skirt!
The gap between ordinary people and political and media elites across the big issues has become a chasm. From climate to gambling to housing to data centres to geopolitics even our most progressive politicians and media commentators (with a few exceptions) are missing the public's growing rage.
The first sentence of this article needs a reference beyond whatever the fuck Richard Flnagan said. I'm of a fully integrated, self aware, anti-colonial left Australian identity of multiple generations, thanks for the advice. A yogi you'd need to be, to follow Stan's instructions.
Found a teddy bear out front of my house. Tiniest teddy bear I've ever seen. Couldn't believe it.

Don't want to quibble, a welcome relief and all that, but the fact the decision is being greeted like Moses coming down from the Mount is an indication of how shit things have become. We should ensure that judge gets an appointment on the People's Justice Tribunal.
livesarah@livesarah.bsky.social · 6d ago👏 👏 👏 "To add to the supply of apartments designed to cater to the luxury and more affluent market cannot, in my view, be reconciled with the ordinary meaning of the word 'affordability’. To do so would be a distortion of the ordinary meaning of affordability."
This is outstanding thinking and requires far less effort than shoving them up the wearer's arse.
