Assad has fled Syria. His regime has fallen. Mark this day in your diaries because much in the Middle East has just altered in a generational way.

Ron Greentree - a well known planet destroyer and has been for years.

The fine isn't big enough for destructive vandals like this.

They think they own the earth. Prison would work a lot better.

If you’d told me on Jan 6th 2021 that the man responsible for that horrific attack would end up returning to the office he tried to steal that day, and that he’d do so after calling the attackers “heroes” & “hostages” he was going to pardon, I’d have thought you were out of your damn mind.

And yet…

What’s with all the “alpha males” looking to men like Tucker and Rogan for what to believe and for other male approval? Now they all look act and believe the same.

Sounds kind of Beta to me actually

The real-time reporting of South Korea today was far easier to follow along on Bluesky than X. It’s these moments that define these platforms. Bluesky really does have the juice.

What’s more wrong than the pardon is holding Trump to no standard at all. Biden pardons his son & we scream. Trump lies as he breathes, abuses the powers of his office, incites violence, obstructs justice, tries to overthrow an election, & we yawn or look away.

We treat Trump like a spoiled child.

The campaign being run mainly by the Nationals and funded by Gina Rinehart and other fossil fuel interests is in essence completely fake.
Supported without scepticism by the Murdoch conglomerate.
Shameful.

According 2 ABS, electricity prices fell by 35.6%. The largest annual fall for the monthly Electricity series on record.

Rebates from fed Labor & state Labor govt in QLD had much to do with it.

Won’t hear anything about it on MSM - as they continue to bag Labor & run a coalition protection racket

Dear Magaidiot, small in the pants, incel, chucklefuck trolls,

Yes. I will block you on here.
I put up with enough of your rage jerking on the Nazi rapist hellscape.
I’m not doing it on here too.
Bluesky ain’t for you anyway.
Folks here talk fancy & we don’t fuck sheep.

Now… shoo.
