Yesterday NSW approved NSW’s largest ever coal expansion to HVO’s coal mine in the Hunter. The next step is federal approval. I know AI is the hot topic of the moment but we *know* coal and gas are driving the climate crisis. Let’s not lose sight of that and the decisions being made in its shadow.

Cartoonists are some of the few bold voices left in mainstream media. Both @cathywilcox.bsky.social and @fionakatauskas.bsky.social have fought for space and held their own in a very male dominated field for decades. Thank you Fiona and Cathy making space for women, and all your wit and insight!

Ready to do a graphic recording to illustrate memories of nature for a group of older Australians - an intense session drawing ten portraits as well as capturing the stories attendees share in quotes and artworks. Love when my passions come together - art, conservation and nature storytelling!

The United Nations is calling for independent investigations after at least 50 people have died in ICE custody since President Trump began his second term. The death rate is higher than it's been in over a decade, and this year is already on track to be worse than 2025. This is unconscionable.

A big part of the AI / data centre industry's strategy is to present itself as a done deal: their line is this technology can't be stopped and we can only get on board or get left behind. But people have more power than that and we can learn from the past commonslibrary.org/how-to-un-do...

We broke significant national news this week and not a single mainstream media outlet wanted to cover it or follow up. It isn't surprising, but it is illustrative. Put simply, they're all owned and operated by Zionist billionaires. This is why indie media needs to exist.
