Australia has an opportunity to get out of the AUKUS security pact. We should take it.

AUKUS ties Australia ever closer to an increasingly volatile and aggressive America.

Australia: A sovereign continent not for Marles to gift away
Yesterday’s statement by Defence Minister Richard Marles that Australia’s geography and continent would be crucial to any United States prosecution of a war against China will go down as a dark moment...

You may have heard
that there are some
who have taken to referring
to the new Covid variant
as “nimbus,”
so please remember:
a cumulus cloud
is white and fluffy,
a cirrus cloud
is thin and wispy,
a stratus cloud
is low and flat,
and a nimbus cloud
is dark and threatening.

This 100%
I sit here
with lectures to write,
and papers to grade,
and emails to send,
the world around me
is ripping apart,
and though I know
I should be trying
desperately trying
to mend those rips,
I find myself sitting here
with lectures to write,
and papers to grade,
and emails to send.

With news of the gender pay gaps in Australia worth remembering that in 96% of all occupations, men earn more than women. Ninety six. (Including, of course, midwives)

my take is that your willingness to accept this gulf of america nonsense is an indicator of your willingness to accept much worse things coming from this administrator
Trump’s decision to rename the Gulf of Mexico may be upsetting to some, writes @giladedelman.bsky.social, but “in a democracy, values are determined by majority rule, and they don’t shift in only one direction. They can shift back”:
‘The Gulf of America’ Is the Wrong Fight to Pick
The more that politicians mess around with place names, the more important it is to respond according to consistent principles.

Economists keep getting "surprised" by inflation for a very simple reason: They don't pay attention to reality. Like, any of it. At all. Ever. I hope you enjoyed today's lesson.

I was due to appear on SBS Insight tonight in a show about ‘My Body My Choice’, with a disability counterpoint against lawyers representing anti vaxxers.

At the last minute, I was uninvited due to their strict ‘no mask policy’. Said the executive producer.

I will be lodging a DDA complaint.

Whichever media just parrot the nonsense that the federal Opposition has ‘shadow ministers’ for things that are not ministries, instead of just saying ‘spokeswoman’ or ‘Liberal/National MP’ then it will be clear which producers & reporters are just relay microphones for Press Releases.
