Honestly, the great thing about AI is it’s going to free up so much spare time for us to be misinformed and out of work.

A *huge* vaccine victory. I've been writing on this for years; Australia has seen remarkable progress in cervical cancer prevention with the HPV vaccine. I love seeing science triumph like this.
Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

In plain terms, the United States aligned itself with Russia against Ukraine and NATO. By transmitting Moscow’s surrender terms unedited and pressuring Kyiv to accept them, the Trump Regime effectively sided with Russia in the war and attempted to force Ukraine’s capitulation. It is betrayal.
Russia drafted a 28 point surrender plan, handed it to the Trump team, and the regime delivered it to Kyiv unedited, demanding Zelensky sign it by Thanksgiving or lose all US support. Trump and Vance then promoted the plan exactly as Russia wrote it, verbatim, on TV, online, and in person.

Turning Point USA has morphed from a conservative club into a $85M Christian nationalist engine. From staged prayer “miracles” to promoting pastors with abuse histories, it teaches young conservatives that taking over America’s institutions isn’t just politics — it’s God’s command.

Next time a Republican whines when they get called a fascist, just remind them that Trump says he doesn't mind the label!

Almighty Asmodeus, they actually pushed back on her. Halley's Comet, I swear.
REPORTER: “Trump accused the other side of encouraging political violence. Isn't that what he is doing?”

LEAVITT: “Why aren't you talking about what members of congress are doing telling the military not to follow lawful orders?”

REPORTER: “Actually, they said ILLEGAL orders.”

Important: House Dem leaders just said Trump's call for execution of Dems has prompted them to contact US Capitol Police and House Sergeant at Arms to "ensure the safety of these members and their families."

Treat Trump like an unhinged menace. He's weak and in deep political trouble. Don't let up.

Getting this along with Final Fantasy VII in my early teens was a mind-blowing experience. At a time an age I loathed, I could go to another world with incredible graphics and story to escape.

The remake nailed the same wonder and got me pretty emotional at points. Highly recommended

Who would think that at this point in Australia’s economic transition we should be spending more, not less, on research and development…
