Like "importing sand to the Sahara"

Australia, one of the world's biggest gas producers, is set to import gas.

It shows the extraordinary failure of consecutive Australian governments to stand up to multinational gas corporations.

So it's dangerous for China to have the ability to access our data and manipulate us via social media apps.

But it's okay for America's billionaires to have the ability to access our data and manipulate us via social media apps.

Do I have this right?

What have Private Schools ever done for you?

Well they created a completely tax free zone that syphons all the money taken to tax havens, while making State Schools, poor schools that they don't give a shit about.

So cheer when they close, and lets get them all done.

Twiggy Forrest has called out "net" zero as a "con to maintain fossil fuels" & plans to decarbonise Fortescue.

So, what is "real" zero?

Richard Denniss told ABC Radio Illawarra "real" zero is simple: less bad things & more of the good things.

Cuba is a Socialist country and one of the poorest in the world suffering under a 60+ year economic blockade by the richest country in the world.

Guess which one has better healthcare, life expectancy, literacy, lower infant mortality and every type of crime.

It ain't the USA.

Class warfare is when there’s a limit to what poor & disabled people can earn before losing their benefits, but no limit to what billionaires can hoard while avoiding taxes.

We must reject the twisted idea that money incentivizes the rich but poverty incentivizes the poor.

Just remember this when the t*rd-polishing RW media try to warm-&-fuzzy Dutton - & his wife says he’s not a monster..

..he called 2 little girls “anchor babies”

Dutton, a so-called father, wanted to deport 2 little girls & their parents to face certain death

Peter Dutton says Biloela Tamil children are ‘anchor babies’ used to help case
Minister says activists are trying to bully government in asylum seeker fight that has cost taxpayers ‘millions of dollars’

‘2025 tipped to be a bumper year for EVs as emission laws change’

Aus emissions standards will now catch up to standards in other countries.

I can hear Dutton grinding his molars from here

For this industry 2 move forward it is imperative to keep this irrelevant miscreant out of govt.

“Maybe happiness is about falling in love with your life, eating your favorite foods, dancing to your favorite songs, soaking in all the nourishing moments, slowing down, taking up space, loving yourself and the people around you harder.
Knowing, you are more than enough.”
Good morning, loves.

If someone detests you, not because of anything you’ve done to them, but solely from believing baseless lies from others, that’s a reflection on them, not you.

If only willing to listen to one sided bullshit, were never your true friend. Their duplicity & cruelty, matches & deserves each other.

Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone except for the billionaire asshole who ruined Twitter with his ubiquitous, bootlicking bots who chased away good accounts to Bluesky.

Bluesky is a beautiful place, btw. I am grateful to be a part of this community. 🙏❤️

Just to let bluesky followers know, I do not support guillotines or violence in regard to the wealthy and powerful in this country. If you respond to one of my posts urging violence, I will block you.

I refuse to refer to Dutton's mythological energy 'plan' as anything but what it is, the 'Fossil Fuel Extension Plan', to keep LNP donor money rolling in, fuck the planet.

Be careful as to where you get information from! Fox is the gold standard of bullshit but there are so many others!! Facts are not hard to find, but we have to look beyond what's comfortable.

When I was an undergrad a lecturer whose name I can't remember said "look at what a government does to people who aren't citizens, because that's what they'll do to everyone if given the opportunity." Just thought about that for no particular reason
