My very favourite substack from Hanna. This 'small life' woman thinks, sees, feels, makes, and writes with big love. Put the kettle on and read her, for your soul. And I'd have a biscuit, if I were you. open.substack.com/pub/lagrosse...

Karoline Leavett in her sadistic reading of the Renee Good killing told a reporter:
"You’re pretending like you’re a journalist, but you’re a left-wing activist".
Yeah, and you are pretending to be a press secretary, but you are a propagandist for a fascist regime.
Just end the "briefings".

Just imagining a world where the ALP had dumped AUKUS and the LNP alone were still clinging to the view that the US was the great protector.

“Small target” oppositions lead to bad government policies.

Did the United States really spend trillions of dollars on winning the Cold War, only for its president in 2025 take orders from a Russian dictator?

This is an earth-shattering humiliation for America of which its reputation may never recover.

Trump sympathizes with how stressful it would be for Putin to have to stop killing people for a while because of how inconvenient it would be for him to resume it. This whole thing is a farce. A charade. Putin is playing Trump like the useful idiot that he is.

The so-called AJA has no membership base and no statitstics of any kind - or evidence of having members

It's just an astro-turfing website, run by an unhinged whacko Zionist drunk and his stay-at-home son. It's not an "association" of any one

People should treat it accordingly

As an organiser, I’ve been banging this drum for a decade now — but more and more the data backs my gut up.

The AES and Macquarie post-election studies for both 2022 and 2025 have shown just how stark a cleavage housing tenure is.
New from my phd student @joshgoddard98.bsky.social: he shows, using many election and panel studies across the advanced democracies, that housing status has replaced occupational class as a key predictor of voting. Class voting is now about assets, not income www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

I'm not doing #SpotifyWrapped because Spotify rip off musicians, run advertisements for ICE, fund arms companies and helped get Trump reelected.

I might post my last fm summaries at the actual end of the year.

When you post your #SpotifyWrapped, you’re not just doing free advertising for a company that exploits artists, recruits for ICE, and invests in AI war machines.

You’re actively celebrating the fact that you’re being surveilled and participating in your own surveillance.

Maybe … don’t do that?
