How in the fuck do we live in a world where the ideological hatred of Christians is called religious terrorism and the ideological hatred of Muslims is called racial terrorism but the ideological hatred of women is never, ever called exactly what it is: men’s terrorism?

Some more #windowsphone stuff. What I was probably most proud of, aside from where my first little foray into blogging got before the end, was this idea and execution with @niallau.bsky.social amazing support and skills. It was a great concept. If only the OS had lived on & Microsoft had supported..

Wow! How sexy is that!

Yeah, I'm now happily married for almost 30 years, but damn, when I had this in my life, I don't know, I felt "Live" .

#WindowsPhone sure was something else! Lol.

Doing some filing. Found the old card from about 15 years ago when Philip Morris tried to headhunt me to sell their death sticks.

Yeah. Nah. Fuck off.

One of my fàvourite Op shop scores of last year. This is a rare and brilliant Aussie #80s album. At once traditional folk, yet quite modern/timeless. Cathie O'Sullivan worked some magic on this. You can find it on YT and streaming. Check it out. #vinyl #nowspinning

TikTok is now under US ownership and their new ToS reads like a guide to giving fascists everything they need to put you on a list.

They’re collecting information about immigration status, citizenship, sexual orientation, whether you’re trans or non binary and physical or mental disabilities.

An Australian coin from before WW1 - but minted in the UK due to the Australuan mint not priducing enough to meet demand.

Well this is very cool! A 164 year old coin (token) issued in 1862 to celebrate one David Jones' new premisis in Ballarat.

Just found it amongst some old coins.

So Littleproud finally says the quiet part out loud - he can't work with Sussan as leader. Either the Liberals decide to go it alone with Sussan, or a manly man steps in to reunite the teams. I predict Sussan will soon be free to enjoy a relaxing winter in her Gold Coast property 🤷‍♀️ #auspol

Trump is suing his own Justice Department to permanently block the release of Jack Smith's full report on Trump's attempts to subvert the 2020 election. He filed the motion in the Southern District of Florida, in other words with his crony Judge Cannon.

His criminality knows no bounds.

MN Doctor: I learned that Renee Good still had a pulse 8 minutes after she was shot by an ICE agent. Yet the offer to administer aid from a physician on the scene was denied. I can't say how much that stirs the blood of everyone here as we try to fulfill our oath to care for the people of Minnesota

Having read the draft of the Australian government's new "hate" legislation, the scope it gives the government of the day to restrict civil society is massive. It's very clear that it could be used to outlaw a Palestine Action-style organisation www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01...
