Show me a room of conservatives and I’ll show you a crowd of cowards unable to acknowledge their privilege and terrified that merit will one day matter. Beautiful things will outlive human folly. Dogs like me.

Midterms! Has everyone forgotten that the Dems achieved nothing regarding trump in a full administrative term?

People posting completely true, and hopefully one day proven, things about trump in the belief that the integrity of the judicial process will always protect them from his wrath may have missed the near-complete degradation of the judicial process

If history has taught me one thing (in truth I’m no master of history so this is plausible) it is that we do not need to empower men any further

ALP strategy 1. Never validate the Greens 2. Policy otherwise just to the left of the opposition 3. Can we still pretend to care about marriage equality? 4. Permanent caretaker government 5. Hope we never get control of both houses because there’ll be no one left to blame for our inaction.

adam says it much more succintly. the american right will happily impoverish the united states and make it an oversized backwater if it means they can dominate women and minorities and play act as a master class

Struggling Russian army now losing troops faster than it can replace them
For the first time since its invasion of Ukraine, Russia has lost troops faster than it can replace them. It's one of many grim milestones of a bloody war that has now been going for four years.

The real situation in #auspol and outcome of #binnight is that the #ALP is the establishment government, the #GreensAU are the true opposition in terms of ideology and policy and the #LNP is the crossbench willing to work with the government. Thanks for the brief interlude @davidpocock.bsky.social.

It began in the 1980s when the generation who did not fight in WWII assumed power (or at least the plurality of voters). It saw the end of the post-WWII social contract, the start of neo-liberalism and disdain for learning. Coupled with the rise of Murdoch power pushing all 3. Straight line to now

Ah crap because I followed some awful accounts with the express intention of holding them to account I’ve ended up on a slew of blocklists and am now getting blocked by people I think I’m likely to be supportive of. Any advice anyone?

Longmire should have been sacked three years ago. He should have been sacked two months ago. He should not have been sacked today or any time in the next 6 months.

All I know about Jones is that from about the time the earliest of these charges date there was already strong mail in the public domain that he had doubtful character.

I feel for those that hope for this place to stay a space where it feels like everything is okay. I’m pretty sure it’s soon going to become the nexus of academic, journalistic and public thought the world needs and that won’t be anywhere near as cosy. Happy blocking people!

David pope at his brutal best
David pope cartoon satirising how Anthony Albanese has massively fucked up with his embrace of AUKUS. He is held by the penis by a vice secured to the corner of the White House Oval Office desk. Trump is being shown the office by Biden.
