La Tingle’s rather eviscerating assessment of the Opposition leader should be read by everyone…

The Coalition can't distract from its lack of policy detail indefinitely
The Coalition has resorted to relentless social media posts about the prime minister falling off a stage and lying about it.

"Asked a couple of times on Friday about how much the redundancies will cost, or how many there will be, Dutton avoided the questions, asserting that the Coalition "have spoken about that a lot". No, only Paterson mentioned it on the radio on Friday." #auspol #SundayShot #insiders

When people say vaccination is a personal choice, it makes me wonder if they understand infectious disease. Getting a mammogram or a colonoscopy is a personal decision because your decision affects only you. When you don't vaccinate, you run the risk of infecting/harming/killing other people.

I remember how the Romanian dictator Ceaușescu liked to go bear-hunting. So in the days before the hunting trip, lots of bears would be shot and hidden in the forest. Whenever the old idiot fired his rifle, they'd bring out a dead bear and tell him he killed it. His people ended up executing him.

We’re only two months in, & they’re cancelling research into pediatric brain cancer. They’re deporting US kids with brain cancer. They’re putting millions at risk of malaria, TB, & polio.

I for one will never forgive or forget those who said ‘it won’t be that bad’.

just three days after Australia’s cheque cleared, the Congressional Research Service quietly issued a paper saying while the nuclear-powered attack submarines (known as SSNs) intended for Australia might be built, the US could decide to never hand them over.

Transgenic means that genes from 1 organism have been put into another. We make transgenic mice to understand how genes influence biological processes. We make transgenic plants to make them more nutrient rich. We make transgenic bacteria so they make medicine for us. It's wide-ranging & v. useful.

There are eight living species of pelican and ours are, naturally, Australian pelicans (Pelecanus conspicillatus).
This is the only type we see here. I think they are the best looking species - but I may be biased 😊
