Haha yes, they are utterly consistent with it! They always used "Aids" for the disease... "Nasa"... It's so annoying.

Yeah in fact I checked and it's NAPLAN in SMH, ABC, News corp. Guardian are weird!

A headline from the Guardian that says, "Naplan testing paused on first day for 1.4 million students amid widespread tech issues"

It says something about the state of my head that I thought, "Wait, they're testing napalm on kids now?"

Although it also says something about the Guardian style guide's dogged insistence on only using initial cap for common acronyms.

I'm no lawyer, but I think "we're going to keep stealing your stuff until you tell us you don't want us to steal your stuff" isn't quite the defense Grammarly thinks it is—at least not in the court of public opinion. I hope this company is sued into oblivion. I canceled my pro account today.

I asked the Government which countries they are seeking to target with these new powers. They said Iran.

They are trying to stop people from Iran with valid visas from coming to Australia.

This is absolutely hilarious and deserves a Veep-style TV adaptation.

Just fascinating to see Blair, a man whose reputation was ruined by the Iraq war, advocate joining a war that is exponentially stupider and more chaotic. How is it possible to learn nothing from the worst mistake of your life?

It's extremely clear that the US doesn't really have an objective here except to inflict maximum pain, and attacking water supply is going to end catastrophically for the entire region. It's not just a war crime, it's approaching a crime against humanity.

I hate to tell you, Corey, but... that is a bat

Thinking of you, Siavash 🖤

never, ever, ever, ever accept "how will you pay for it?" as an argument against social programs.

Which air force is responsible for the Minab attack which killed close to 200 girls? No clear info so far.

Given the location in south east Iran it is likely the US - as Israeli attacks have focussed on western parts of Iran. But either way, we need to know who is responsible for this atrocity.

Over the past year, every single time one of the apps or services I use suddenly became less reliable and more buggy, I never have to look far for the "Claude is amazing and now writes most of my code" post for the devs involved.

When I saw the notifications yesterday I thought, "Oh right, he's FINALLY said something so offensive she quit? Something misogynist directed at her?"

But no.
It was not.
It was--
He--

He said she was not doing her job because of her obsession with astrology.

Yep, both these people are the worst.

Australian police are using criminal checks to punish critics of Israel Charges that fail in court are continuing to damage reputations

A core tenet of our justice system is the presumption of innocence. But for two years, police have been undermining this fundamental principle, inflicting lasting damage on innocent people whose only 'crime' is disagreeing with government policy.

Ban Polymarket.
It’s immoral and will corrupt our foreign policy decisions and likely has already.

That’s over a million people. Lebanon has 5-6 million people in total. We’re one of the smallest countries in the world, and Israel is rendering Lebanon’s agricultural areas uninhabitable by ethnically cleansing its people, spraying its land with herbicides and obliterating everything else.

US embassy in Riyadh hit by Iranian drones as Israeli troops enter southern Lebanon Iran continues to target American bases and Hezbollah fires at Israel as conflict spreads across Middle East

Israel “virtually emptying out the country south of the Litani River and turning the southern suburbs of Beirut into a ghost town.”

"Oh, the US is attacking Iran? Nah, I'm fine with that - I have an electric car!"

And obviously Jacinda Ardern is now an Australian ex-politician, as long as you're careful with word order.

I know who Prime Minister Pooh was, no idea about the others.
Buzz, buzz, buzz, I wonder who they wuzz.

British far-right, anti-Islam activist and thug, Tommy Robinson, sends out supportive tweet to Anthony Albanese, saying, "I don't like this man either but credit where it's due". It is in response to Albanese tweeting support for Trump's war in Iran.

Wow, that's endorsement you don't want on your resume.

Israel is striking hospitals in Iran. It reportedly hit Iran’s Red Crescent headquarters. Medical facilities/personnel r given special protections under intl humanitarian law. Israel is doing its best to destroy those protections - a craft it honed on the backs of Palestinians x.com/hmdmosavi/st...
