I'd be laughing so much harder if it wasn't so sad what is happening over there.

Susssssan will be knifed inside of a year.
Anus Taylor will take over, lurch the party further to the right, the Coalition will be reformed.
Both Anus and Littleprick will take credit for bringing the Coalition back together.
They know they cannot win an election without being a Coalition.

...it concluded since the landslide was triggered by the melting glacier, and since *that* happened due to rising global temperatures...

This was a signal - and a warning - from our rapidly changing world, heard in every single part of it.

Best we listen up.

A rockslide-generated tsunami in a Greenland fjord rang Earth for 9 days
Climate change is increasingly predisposing polar regions to large landslides. Tsunamigenic landslides have occurred recently in Greenland (Kalaallit Nunaat), but none have been reported from the east...

For 9 days, the whole of our planet rang like a bell.

BONG BONG BONG.

We are all connected by bongs! (No, I don't mean....ok, I might try to disable the replies on this bit.)

And when the paper on all this was published a year later...

For 9 days, this seawater sloshed back and forth like disturbed bath-water, transferring energy into the bedrock of the fjord with every impact...

And that regular 90-second beat rippled out across the WHOLE DAMN WORLD.

But then the waves refused to dissipate. They pounded back and forth across the fjord again and again...

The technical term for this is a SEICHE, pronounced “saysh” - a standing wave in a large body of water - and it can be dangerous as hell.

(In 1844, one in Lake Erie killed 78 people.)

The resulting cataclysmic backsplash of water - a MEGATSUNAMI - was around 200 metres tall, and sent 100-metre-high waves racing across the fjord to smash against the other side of it.

(This is still not the crazy bit!)

This is King Christian X Land in eastern Greenland - and outlined in red is Dickson Fjord, first surveyed in 1899.

On the 16th of September 2023, part of the glacier forming its back wall collapsed, plunging 25 million cubic meters of rock & ice into the waters of the fjord...

Instead, in the best collaborative tradition of modern science, researchers across the globe - 68 scientists from 40 institutions in 15 countries - joined forces to track down the signal’s source.

What they found was something astonishing!

(Yes yes, I'm getting there.)

In seismology, the term for this is a USO: an Unidentified Seismic Object.

And perhaps if this discovery had leaked into mainstream news in the way potential alien biosignatures tend to do, we’d currently be seeing a big comeback for the HOLLOW EARTH ‘theory’.

Thankfully this wasn't the case.

NDIS added to Mark Butler's portfolio? Great! So we can expect fuck-all with any beneficial changes or reform then. How did he keep his job?
