This is disgusting. Why can't Australia's government add batteries and panels and provide power to these relatively few homes in remote areas like this? We're a rich nation.

The last community I’m feeling sorry for are the New York billionaires threatening to leave the city if Mamdani wins on Tuesday because they don’t want to pay more taxes.

We have folks who don’t know how they’re going to feed their kids tomorrow—in the richest country on earth.

Pay per shower: fully-funded aged care turns market-driven aged support - Michael West
The new Support at Home Program for the elderly is introducing a 'free market' transactional aged care system. It's a retrograde step.

Hey @albomp.bsky.social we are going to decimate you at the next election for being too weak to remove Australia from this Christo fascist regime.

This is not ok. Australia has no place aligned to these people. #auspol

The Egyptians may not have had modern science, but they knew how to live sustainably and in harmony with the rhythms of nature. Their civilisation lasted over 3000 years. With all our vast knowledge, we still continue to destroy our only planet and will be lucky to last another century.

"the wife of the US homeland security adviser apparently threatened to denaturalize someone because she didn’t like the fact he criticized her.

This, to be clear, is hardly some one-off. Threatening to deport your critics, even those with American citizenship, seems to be Maga policy now."

Up to 59% of Antarctic ice shelves may be at risk of disappearing under high-emission scenarios by 2300, according to an analysis of the effect of ocean warming in Nature. This could result in up to 10 m of global sea-level rise. go.nature.com/47Ag4k1 🌊 🧪
This is figure 1, which is a schematic of the processes that contribute to the Antarctic ice-shelf mass balance.
