When the world goes mad, it's helpful to get out and actually talk to people about democracy.
This morning I ran my second Paws for @davidpocock.bsky.social stall down at the lake. This fine fellow helped 😍🐶🐾

Organised a 'Paws for Pocock' event in the local park today.
Handed out treats and dog bandanas while talking to people about @davidpocock.bsky.social 🤩
Very positive vibes from voters, although I think the dogs liked me more because of the pigs ears I was handing out 🤣

At a climate forum with @davidpocock.bsky.social
He's reporting back on a briefing by defence officials. He asked them when they started to warn our government about climate change risks. They answered:
"In the early 80s".
I think my head just exploded.
Seriously.

Sure, Meta stole 15 of my books and articles. But in all honesty, least 6 of them were not examples of my best writing. It makes me feel... a bit better?
But then I remember that my best stuff WAS SOLD BY MY PUBLISHER TO OPEN AI AND I DIDN'T SEE A CENT.

Hey #academicsky - I have this big collection of US political comics from the 90s.
It's a treasure trove of cultural history, but no libraries here in Australia interested.
Looking for suggestions or people who want it. Will ship it to wherever.
Share, DM or reply with leads please? Thanks!
