Trump has said the Iran war is almost over at least 60 times. It's been 212 days. 19 service members are dead, 800+ wounded, $43 billion gone. We counted every broken promise with @votevets.org.

The madness of Victoria. A public holiday for the AFL Grand Final, for two teams that are not based in Victoria. Meanwhile businesses are forced to pay holiday penalty rates, some choosing instead to remain closed on the day because of the cost. Not good for tourists or the economy.

Mixed emotions about Angry. He became involved with the Q Society and right wing politics towards the end of his career. It soiled his legacy to be honest.

Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate needs to resign. If he bragged about having dinner with the Trump family, who have since denied it happened, why was he at Mar-a-Largo? Doing any business with the Trumps would be damaging for the Gold Coast. Trumps are crooks. #TomTate #GoldCoast #TrumpTower #Trump #Crooks

Great idea but gardeners have been doing this for decades. It's not new. On a different note, community composting bins turned out to be a failure. City of Sydney Council had to remove them from the streets because people were throwing rubbish into them, not just organic waste. 🧐 #Composting #Waste

I remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. Now, two MORE unvaccinated people have died from measles. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

If universities care about global warming, why do we still have international students when the Internet is available? It's estimated that travel by a student generates carbon emissions, often exceeding a campus's local operational footprint. 7.17 tonnes of CO2 per student per year on travel (2019)

Macklemore still opening for other artists? He's been around on the scene for over two decades now. If he's popular, there is no need for him to even do openers. #Macklemore #EdSheeran

The image is a colour film still from Rob Reiner’s 1984 mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap. It shows the humiliating marquee outside the theatre at the fictional Themeland Amusement Park. The scene was actually filmed at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California, specifically around the park's amphitheatre entrance. (c) Authorized Spinal Tap LLC

"Their local extinction here and throughout most of Australia’s mainland was due to cats, foxes and rabbits." ABC mentions it here but in many instances they don't. There is a fear in media of calling out cats as the problem.

Two words: Stolen valour. The US Stolen Valor Act (2013) makes it illegal to falsely claim receipt of military medals, awards or decorations.

Donald Trump posted an image of himself standing between Gen. George Patton and Gen. Douglas MacArthur. The image appeared in a post by the @realDonaldTrump account on Truth Social on 4 August 2026. Donald Trump has never served in the military.

There can never be a true, accurate representation. Mathematically, you cannot flatten a three-dimensional curved surface onto a flat two-dimensional plane without distorting the image.

A Florida grand jury found the DeSantis administration “misappropriated” $10 million meant to provide health insurance for poor children. Part of a “sophisticated scheme to fund political activities,” the money was funneled through multiple organizations before reaching two PACs and the Florida GOP.

No matter where an airport is located you will always get complaints. Sydney as a major city and first world destination needs a dedicated 24/7 airport. We don't get that with the existing Kingsford Smith Airport. Government should relocate residents away from the area in a compensation scheme.

“Bye, YouTube. I’m deeply uncomfortable with the amount of old men here.” Teenage guitarist Grace Bowers pulls videos from YouTube due to “too many old-ass creeps”

Bowers says she’s done with the audience drawn to her blues playing and is shifting toward music for her own generation.

Biological sex is neither binary nor a spectrum – a biologist explains how it’s multidimensional

Each person is a mosaic of sex-related and postpubertal biological traits that vary in their degree of femaleness and maleness.
