Morning Rob
First saw that joke at around 15.
My version, still remembered.
My new girlfriend
Miss Ivy Lykes

Tilit
Harts (pronounced Herts for Hartfordshire)
That makes it at least 60 years old.

This is nothing but racism & nativism When Trump's #ProudBoy #ICE goons have 86'd the people from other countries whose skin is not white who is Trump going to hate then? My guess is he will come after Native Americans, our indigenous black & Hispanic population & women, particularly unmarried women

Are the UN and governments of the world going to sit back and say nothing while Trump murders people so he can look tough?
Thousands of miles from the US, and the only proof is them saying we have proof.
He’s got proof Biden had 27 FBI agents in the J6 mob too.

‘Doesn’t pass the pub test’: Why is fuel so expensive in some parts of the country? - ABC News
The price of oil is low, the USD has depreciated 10% since the start of the year yet we do not see any noticeable reduction in price.
Not good enough.

I call on the Australian government to #RaiseTheRate of all support payments to a living wage.
This would be the single most effective way to lift the productivity, quality of life, and well-being of the whole country.

By their actions @albomp.bsky.social @senatorwong.bsky.social & the Labor govt is fast becoming a govt. that by their obsequiousness to both the US & the Zionist lobby will be lucky to be returned for a 3rd term let alone a 4th as some pundits stated after May rout of the LNP. #auspol #Gaza

Dear @senatorwong.bsky.social
Trump's US Govt funding of Israel's brutal occupation and ongoing genocide hardly qualifies him for receiving the #NobelPeacePrize. The Australian Labor Govt have zero principles, decency, humanity or credibility with obscene comments like this. 😠 #auspol #GazaGenocide

I get it
Like all change, discomfort with what is must exceed the cost of the new end state for action to occur
Until I have a lazy 5K, run the exhaust fan and mostly use the air fryer and oven
Once done and the hws system is upgraded, there's another $5k, we can get rid of the supply charge

Massive Brown Seweed Belt Spreading Through Atlantic Ocean Is Visible from Space

The Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt is a shockingly large mass of brown algae almost double the width of the American continent, and clearly visible from space.

As Anti-Poverty weeks begin in Australia, for those affected by it, it’s a long journey of loss.

Loss of security, home, safety, health and dignity.

The #masks many must wear may fool you. #StructuralInequality and #homelessness is unacceptable. #auspol 😔 🏠

Behind the mask, I am the hidden face of poverty in WA

Increasingly in WA, poverty looks like me: a 67-year-old grandmother who once ran a thriving business, owned a home, and raised two sons surrounded by love and opportunity.

How long before underwater-capable Drones make $368 manned vessels unviable? #DumpAUKUS now!

Michael Dowling aka MeckeringBoy @meckeringboy.bsky.social · 3d

It’s time for Australia to reassess its AUKUS nuclear subs deal. So many eggs in one basket of never-never coming secondhand subs was always a dumb, dud deal. It’s al the more-so now.

Dump AUKUS. Become a smarter, kinder, more independent nation free of hegemonic Uncle Sam.

We must learn from Ukraine. Ukraine air defences take down 80% of targets.

Ukrainian drones stopped Russian advance on land and in the Black Sea, and devastated the Russian strategic bomber fleet. Ukraine shows besides tech we need integrated command & a new warfare ecosystem.

It’s one thing to successfully submerge - fill my pockets with enough stones, and even I could do that. The test is surely whether or not she successfully resurfaced!

The Royal Navy’s newest nuclear-powered attack submarine, HMS Agamemnon, has successfully submerged for the first time during trials at BAE Systems’ Barrow-in-Furness shipyard.
