Access to a laptop and a copy of Mein Kampf, what in the actual f##k! The laptop better not have internet access to enable him to communicate with his fellow cockroaches!

Released in ‘22 it’s odd watching this doco in ‘25. What thin skin far right personalities in this doco have. While keen to troll others to attract attention, when their views are challenged via respectful conversation they become defensive & evasive. They’re pathetic www.stan.com.au/watch/louis-...

Seemingly drawing inspiration from Nick Cave, Midnight Oil, and Talking Heads, Floodlights weave jangly post-punk guitars with atmospheric soundscapes and introspective, questioning lyrics. Their third album, ‘Underneath’ is a perfect Sunday morning listen. floodlights88.bandcamp.com/album/undern...

My favourite albums of 2025. A thread 🧵👇
With only 9 weeks until the end of year I figure now is as good a time as any to share some of my favourite albums from 2025. No ranked lists. No album of the year bs. Just sharing great music in the hope that other people discover it too.

The callistemon/bottle-brush plants in the backyard are looking fantastic now that they are flowering.

#feelgood news story for today via a marine biology study from DCCEEW!
“Eastern Australian humpback whale numbers last year reached at least 50,000 individuals, far surpassing population numbers seen before commercial whaling, according to a new population estimate.”
www.abc.net.au/news/science...

These whales were hunted to 150 individuals. Now there are 50,000 of them

Once hunted almost to extinction, the population of humpback whales currently migrating down Australia's east coast has bounced back and is now greater than before whaling.

"Internal TikTok documents released in a multistate lawsuit state it clearly: it can take as little as 260 videos, spanning just over half an hour, to form a usage habit."
www.adamspencer.com.au/post/is-tikt...

Is TikTok playing you (and your kids) like a piano?

TikTok’s own highly protected data shows it takes just 260 videos, about 35 minutes, to form a usage habit. The Washington Post confirmed it with 15 million swipes.

Also one of the many reasons why conservatives within the LNP are not in favour of the EPBC Act.

I would regard being told by #Trump, "I don't like you," as a badge of honour.

Rudd is 10 times the man Trump will ever be...and 100 times the intellect.

Lets end the divisive politics of the LNP and support justice, truth telling, and treaty in Victoria #auspol getup.to/LM9JJgHAdgIy...

Tell the LNP - Support Treaty!

Together, we can make sure Parliament honours this historic moment and walks forward with First Nations communities towards justice.

While this deal looks to lift Australia’s profile as a strategic minerals hub I just hope it isn’t at the expense of Australian business opportunities & IP in this space going overseas, increased US reliance, and Australia being entrenched as ONLY a supplier #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

Trump praises Australia, signs rare minerals deal in first official meeting with Albanese

Donald Trump lavishes praise on Australia and Anthony Albanese during the pair's landmark meeting in Washington, but takes a swipe at a former prime minister in the room.

Summer Blood - Comet 12” EP
Six catchy songs that meld melodic punk, grunge, surf-punk, and 90s alternative rock. It’s a shame that they never got as big as Violent Soho who have a similar sound. Their guitarist Adam sadly passed away from cancer in 2023, RIP! #vinylsky #vinylcommunity #musicsky

Does anyone know what time AEDST Albo will be meeting with Trump today and if the ABC or other networks will be broadcasting anything live? #auspol
