Beautiful 9km morning walk today. Saw tons of wonderful wildlife including 7 eastern water dragons (lizard) but the highlight was this family of ducks and ducklings. They were next to the walking path and daddy duck came over to tell me to keep walking. We had a chat and sorted it amicably.

Aging boomer here, I’ve ditched alp after a lifetime of being disappointed in them and now totally disillusioned by @albomp.bsky.social and will be putting my vote to the greens. I cannot in good conscience vote any other way.

If you live in a country where your democratically elected leader can call for another nation to obliterate one of your cities, and you have no ability to remove that leader, then I’m sorry but your democracy isn’t worth shit, and you need to join one of those well regulated militias you talk about.

Can’t stop thinking about this & how this wasn’t the last straw & our Gov will double down on ‘shared values’ while we have a target on our backs. Can’t stop thinking of all those laughing in the crowd.

And equally important is the interrelationship of these considerations. If we move this lever to here what does it do to that one? We are falling short on the levers and the scenarios. I work on this stuff every day. We are miles behind where we should be.

Dear @davidpocock.bsky.social I heard your interview on ABC today. You are 100% correct. Part of the issue is that when govt l speaks about sovereign position it tends to refer to defence not the full sovereign ecosystem. Education, fuels, immigration, capability, +++ are all part of the planning

To every Australian banging on this morning on talkback radio about wanting ZERO migration, I concede. You can have it. As long as you are ok with the high chance of ZERO emergency medical care when you’re sick. ZERO aged care when you’re old. ZERO fresh food when you’re hungry.

As the NSW gov has given $40M of taxpayer funds to this development, shouldn't the naming rights go to the taxpayers? Or just NSW? It should not be a condition to donate to get your name up in lights. This is "Trumpism" at it's worse. #auspol

The funding model is failing our kids. Australia has one of the most segregated and privatised school systems in the OECD. Instead of giving every kid the chance to thrive we’re entrenching privilege and worsening inequality.

The private school lobby claims they’re relieving pressure on the public school system, but that’s a false economy. Public schools are so underfunded that out-of-pocket costs are soaring and teachers are dipping into their own pockets to pay for classroom supplies.

What does the inequality crisis look like? This 👇 98% of public schools are underfunded – that’s 2.6 million kids without the resources they need for the education they deserve. Yet the richest private schools are charging massive fees while banking billions of public dollars.

You should have seen how bad the propaganda was when they had to pay royalties in Qld under the previous government. The ads about how mining saves us all and they were hard done by were constant. Then Crisafulli ended it

The President of the United Stated suggested the country they are at war with should bomb Los Angeles and San Diego - which would kill thousands or more of his own citizens. Australia Govt and Australian Media: complete silence. Just speechless.
