Discussing changes to how the ARIA Charts are compiled, with @hellharpy.bsky.social

theconversation.com/the-aria-cha...
The ARIA charts are about to undergo a big change. It could be a boost for local artists
Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours album has been in the Top 50 albums chart for more than 400 weeks – but it won’t be there for much longer.

Wait, do you mean the caps that effectively give power to the 2 major parties from here on in by locking everyone else out? That’s not a master stroke, that’s just the two parties working for their own interests

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

“Will pay any amount.”

Feels like one of those futile pleas we’re going to hear from wealthy people more and more in the era of climate change.
Keith Wasserman: Does anyone have access to private firefighters to protect our home in Pacific Palisades? Need to act fast here. All neighbors houses burning. Will pay any amount. Thank you.

Labor and Liberal governments have passed 49 anti-protest laws across the country over the last two decades.

It is damning (& history will judge us harshly) but no surprise that 🇦🇺 leads the world on climate protest arrests.

Australia leads the world in arresting climate and environment protesters
A new study shows more than 20 per cent of climate and environment protests in Australia lead to arrests, more than in the UK, Norway, and the United States.

Humans: Lets agree on the international climate policy goal of limiting global warming to less than two degrees Celsius by 2100 compared to the pre-industrialization level.
