The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

We don't - we just manage it to being something else. In the same way you can't disentangle a family farm, or a family trust, or a small country town when the Mayor and his family (who have always been Mayors) is discovered fucking a goat. We just manage it to become something else.

Ukraine gave up their nukes for global security, in exchange for security guarantees. The US has reneged. The world sees - and if this path continues, Germany will get nukes, then Turkey, then Japan, then South Korea, then Australia, then South Africa etc and someone will fuck us all with a mistake

There was a time that imposing a tax on certain imported goods would result in Americans rising up against their rulers. These days the rulers just have to lie to them about what a tariff is and they cheer the tax they're forced to pay.

Failure to do so would be wrong, and highly political, given the latest inflation figures

The LNP and their mates in the RW media (Seven, Nine, NewsCorp, ABC) will be targeting community independent MPs with a lot of lies. As @zoedaniel.bsky.social, independent MP for Goldstein notes, it's already started. 👇 😠 #auspol #AusVotes2025

This might a too spoilery and opinionated of a list from Abigail Nussbaum, but I'm using this to help guide what to try and what to avoid (I've only read Arabella and A Civil Contract so far): abigailnussbaum.tumblr.com/post/7703861...
The Georgette Heyer Master List
Is it just me, or has Georgette Heyer kind of... gone away? Ten, maybe fifteen years ago, she was a name I'd hear quite often. Especially in the circles of science fiction and fantasy fandom that also...

The LNP nuclear costings' only real importance is to make it impossible for the Teals to support a minority Dutton government.
Other than that, all the headlines and stories of the past week or so are pretty much old news.

The national energy marketer seems alarmed by the (wonderful, world-leading!) fact that *4 million* Australian homes and businesses have rooftop solar.
It’s time for the government to help all those homes and businesses afford the batteries they need to store their cheap, clean energy.
