Anthony 'Whatever It Takes' Albanese

hey man how'd Liz Truss go?

For anyone who would like the clip (including George).

Anthony Albanese has confirmed that three Australians were on a US submarine that sank an Iranian warship, after the Labor government earlier refused to comment on reports that emerged on Thursday. The prime minister said the Australian defence force personnel were on the submarine as part of an Aukus training program. But he maintained that Australian forces were in compliance with international law, and said: “No Australian personnel have participated in any offensive action against Iran.”

Is that Darth Vader? I assume it is, and very splendidly evil he looks too.

Photo of a very small honeyeater perched on a branch with a large red callistemon (bottlebrush) flower in front. The bird is black and white with a bright scarlet head, black mask, and mottled red on its breast.

Same subject, side view. The bird's youth can be identified by the shortness of its beak and its light-coloured gape.

Same subject with the head raised and the breast feathers clearly visible.

A lifer in my very own garden!
I've heard Scarlet Honeyeaters before but in my 13 years living here I'd never actually seen any until this young male visited one of our callistemons. They're Australia's smallest honeyeaters!

this is the juice

we are not far away from it when our fellow humans who live here have family there being slaughtered. when the indigenous people here continue to suffer the violence of colonialism. it is about showing solidarity to these comrades, to stand behind all peoples' affected as they resist genocide.

you are the only one misusing it

it means resistance Ross and rising up and resisting genocide, apartheid and ethnic cleansing is a good thing actually. it not 'in vogue', it is about the sanctity of humanity

it is not a conflict Ross it is a genocide

hey Ross there are plenty of us also mourning the hundreds of thousands of murdered Palestinian children and their families because you know they are also human beings

it is so annoying that FB marketplace killed Gumtree. Gumtree was SO EASY

i'm no historian but i am pretty sure a big driver in the rise of the Nazi party was the enormous debt Germany had after WW1 and The Great Depression. well, guess who currently has the 2nd highest household debt in the world! try fixing that then scapegoating immigrants might lose its appeal. 🙃

if all they did was the absolute bare minimum to improve people's lives they would absolutely cake walk it and one nation would be but a blip. raise welfare, a few cost of living improvements here and there and they would be sailing. but no. helping the working class is not part of labor's ideology.
