The Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme is a national treasure. It gets the best price from US pharmaceutical corps, protecting us from exorbitant prices that US citizens pay.
Congrats to PM Albanese for consistently defending the PBS from Big Pharma.

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

Dear #ABCnews: please stop repeatedly ‘reporting’ that Tim Wilson has ‘reclaimed his old seat of Goldstein.’
It’s not “his seat”. He never owned it to “reclaim”. It’s ’the seat.’ He won it again.
Please try to keep this kind of ubiquitous, insidious bias out of your news reports.

I get so sick of names for things that come packaged with mean-spirited insinuations. Like, 'effective altruism' implies other altruism is ineffective. 'Rational environmentalism' implies other enviros are irrational.

wishing the RMS happy 175 year anniversary, and great service to the meteorological communities for the next 175 years.(from a former (long ago) RMS member now a member of the Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society (AMOS).
Today marks the 175th Anniversary of the Royal Meteorological Society, founded on 3rd April 1850.
If you were wondering what the weather was like on 3rd April 1850, thanks to the 20th century reanalysis the chart below shows the pressure pattern at 12Z on that day.
