lol those stick-on gold bits on the walls.
See that Rolex clock and gold bar?

It looks like those Swiss gifts paid off.

Trump cut tariffs on Swiss goods — like luxury watches — from 39% to 15%.

While Trump’s tariffs increase prices for Americans, billionaire CEOs and foreign companies sucking up to Trump get relief.

A reminder from earlier this week that the cyclone season has begun. The sea surface temperature around WA, NT & Qld is warmer than usual. To form, cyclones need a minimum of 26.5°C.

TC Oswald 2013 & TC Alfred 2025 show how far south they can travel & we in SEQ need to be aware. #qldpol
Cyclone watch underway in northern Australia. During Nov-Apr there are usually 9-10 with 3-5 becoming severe Cat3 or higher. Abnormally warm oceans off the coast raise the risk of more this season. Water temperature of 26.5°C is required to form. #qldpol www.weatherzone.com.au/news/tropica...

We’ve gotten numb to it but Trump threatening NYC voters with federal funding to vote a certain way is the kind of shit that should get him unanimously impeached today. Insane fascist bullshit.

The Oregon Department of Justice submitted multiple video exhibits showing federal officers using extreme force against nonviolent protesters outside the U.S. Immigration & Customs Building. This is part of its effort to block the federal deployment of National Guard troops to Portland.

Obvious to say this, but the actual function of the smear job isn't to make us ask about his aunt, it's to show us the words "hijab" and "9/11" in a headline with his photo.

Maybe the thing that gives me a pulse-pounding throbbing headache is when I think of how techbros sold ChatGPT to universities as ‘revolutionizing’ higher education and our institutions just forked over money without even asking for actual evidence
When people learn with ChatGPT instead of following their own searches, they end up knowing less, caring less, and producing worse advice, even when the facts are the same.

Friction is an essential ingredient for learning! Convenience makes us shallow.

Religous MPs in NSW Parliament are trying to amend the voluntary assisted dying laws to allow faith based aged care facilities to deny their residents access to VAD.
They want to prioritise their religious beliefs over the rights & choices of elderly residents.

The "Cease Fire" was about optics and giving #NarcissistTrump hope of getting the Nobel Peace Prize (he is never getting one). Netanyahu played the media the world and his favorite mark #GullibleTrump Netanyahu needs war to keep his job as long as he rules Israel the war will go on. #PeaceMatters
For those new to this planet: Missile strikes and attacks by soldiers are not part of a Cease Fire and their very existence means there is NOT in fact a Cease Fire.
