Just a thought. Historians refer to the first century BCE. Wouldn't it be more accurate to call it the last century BCE?

My producer sent this to me and off the headline I was like "oh right, so she got hit by a loose round"... but then when you see it... like, that officer saw she was a reporter and shot her ~on camera~. Absolutely wild. Hope @laurentomasi.bsky.social is ok.

Another media outlet describes Welcome to Country as a divisive ceremony. Not having lived in Oz for a long time, I would ask Aussies if it is, or if a loud, hateful minority wants to depict it as so.
And Aussies, please add an explanation or description of what Welcome to Country means for you.
Hecklers and booers at Anzac Day welcome to country ‘must face the full force of the law’, PM says
Anthony Albanese says disruption of ceremonies in Melbourne and Perth was ‘act of low cowardice on a day when we honour courage and sacrifice’

We cut our power bill by 70% when we installed a heat pump. Cut carbon emissions too. A shame that technology that is good for people and the planet is seen as controversial
‘They dictate the rules’: BBC tells PM’s Evan Davis to stop hosting heat pump podcast
Presenter believes decision was taken due to the technology’s link with net zero after he was told he risked accusations of political bias

Fascinating that credit check companies can mail out saying"your credit profile has changed. Sign up for our premium service to see why" when all that's happened is that they have got your latest income figures. Dodgy

Happy to see Western Australia investing in batteries to accelerate the transition to renewables. And great to see so much of the investment happening in my old hometown of Collie. A more creative name structure would be good tho: big battery, really? reneweconomy.com.au/four-new-gia...

Just finished the final book in The Three-Body Problem. Astounding. Sad to finish, in a way. Not always easy but like nothing else I have ever read.

Becoming Led Zeppelin is well worth it. As an authorised documentary it is not looking for dirt, but provides plenty of good vibes and memories .Only downside, it left me wanting more
