I find it sooooooooooo weird people are upset "Albo" was booed, and not that his government is eroding our democratic rights to appease the extremist genocidaires that booed him.
Big picture. Focus on our democracy and rights, not the pride/image of an individual politician.

I feel like a right-winger frothing at the mouth about the Frankfurt School, but there in fact is a vast international fascist conspiracy that has deeply infiltrated our society and must be extruded root and branch.
And then there’s the story about Alex Karp’s not-at-all-weird interview (for lack of a better word) with Oswald Mosley’s grandson for a senior position at Palantir.

I keep having to justify why I want to go to conferences outside the USA and the simple answer is "Many of the people it would be helpful to talk to are no longer able to enter the USA"

Getting from Railway Square to the Central metro platforms is pretty frustrating and stupid?
You start basically on top of the platforms, but have to do a ¾ lap of the station through either the country terminal or the tunnel to actually get to it.

Today we remember 11 September 1973, where Chile’s democratically elected Allende govt. was overthrown in a military coup backed by Washington and facilitated by Australia’s intelligence services.
The result was Pinochet’s dictatorship that killed and tortured thousands.

[This is a joke playing on meanings of ‘heritage’, one for white supremacy and another for built cultural heritage. But in fact the Australian system does actively list and protect places which have meaning from our society’s most chauvinist eras, and tries to erase vernacular migrant architecture]

In the 1970s-80s, the South African Embassy in Australia produced a glossy magazine promoting the apartheid state. For a period of time, the back cover would be advertisements that floated ideas of ways in which the regime could rejoin the international community. Here are some examples.
