The violent scenes that played out in central Sydney last night were deeply troubling, and entirely foreseeable.
We are Australians, first and foremost. Inviting a foreign head of state to Australia when the consequences for social cohesion are so obvious shows a serious failure of judgment.

No matter which government rules the country, all European nations share a common dislike for Putin, even in Hungary. All but one: Serbia.
Remember this whenever Serbia makes calls for entering the EU. They are literally Putin‘s Only Fans.

It's a truly amazing film. Not just for the raw footage and the bravery but for the subtle and multilayered commentary about war, Ukrainian patriotism, freedom and dignity. I'm glad it's getting recognized.

It's time for the Australian Government to admit we can’t insure our way out of the climate crisis.
It's impossible to get insurance against likely events, and climate disasters are becoming more and more frequent. It's time to make polluters pay for the damage.

Trump is demanding $10 billion because a contractor (not an IRS employee) leaked some of his data.
OK, then. It seems only fair that each of the 300,000,000+ Americans whose personal tax and Social Security data was leaked by DOGE receive the same renumeration.
That's $300,000,000,000,000+.
