We may detect bullshit, yet inevitably face Brandolini's Law: “The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than the energy expended to produce it.” An effect magnified by bullshit amplifiers within corporate media, and on social media platforms.

I mourn the loss of human life. I feel compassion, empathy and grief at an inexcusable killing. But I find nothing to lionise in his legacy.

Guy's not exaggerating when he calls The Rolling Stones' 1967 B-side 2000 Light Years From Home a masterpiece. Such a near-perfect blend of form and content, this emblematic example of Space Rock, a sub-genre of Psychedelia
I go back and forth on the merits of the album, but this song is a masterpiece and created so many copycats. Brian Jones, king of the mellotron, RIP youtu.be/nRc0yaMW7Mw?...

Can we now agree that the Greens were right on Palestine?
And on fossil fuel projects?
And on AUKUS?
And on unemployment benefits?
It’s as if people vote on emotion rather than on established and clear policy.

Remember that odd story before the election about a neurosurgeon tearing down Monique Ryan’s campaign corflute, talking about burying the body under concrete? I decided to investigate. Turns out that behaviour did not exist in a vacuum. Watch #4Corners 8.30pm, ABC TV. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-07...
When video of this surgeon went viral, his colleagues were the least surprised
It took a viral video for Australia to see a side of a celebrated neurosurgeon that some of his colleagues and patients had known about for years.
