cats, silversmithing, fungi foraging, camping, Dandenong Ranges, mouthing off. These are my favourite things.

It would be a massive mistake for progressive folk to convince themselves the March for Australia was a bust, or can safely be ridiculed.

It was an alarming escalation of far-right action, and we need to reckon with it.

Australia has an opportunity to get out of AUKUS. We should take it.

We ask the Albanese Government to prioritise Australia's interests and security, and to join the UK and the US Governments in undertaking an independent parliamentary inquiry into AUKUS.

If you don't know, vote NOPE
If you don’t know the details about Dutton’s flip flopping policies, vote No to Liberal National candidate in the federal election.

Democratic U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen said authorities in El Salvador had denied him access to Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Salvadoran man mistakenly deported and being held in a notorious prison in the country.

Great thread. The US has completely overplayed its hand (to use an extremely crass analogy) and it doesn't realise the hegomony is over. The whole globe is shifting on its axis now, the power and influence (or wealth) the US once had is just vanishing. Empire in ruins. And at neck breaking speed.
As in so many other areas, Trump's grasp of the world and the US's place in it is decades out of date. Others in his administration and in the think tank and media ecosystem around it also seem to think the US still has the relative power it lost 20 or 30 years ago.
