Hearing talk of a 15% fall in house prices. Yep. Will take us all the way back to Dec 2023 levels. You know, back when housing was so cheap.

Walter Cronkite: After liberating execution camps… Germans (who cried) they didn’t know…were as as guilty as Nazis…because they applauded when Hitler shut down (media) and said, ‘We don’t need to know. We trust our government...’ It’s our duty to know.

Mehreen Faruqi has torn into the Coalition for targeting school’s respectful relationships curriculum—despite women being murdered “left, right, & centre.” "Matt Canavan & Angus Taylor have decided the real crisis is boys being taught to respect girls!”💥💯 Sickening priorities.

I have been saying this for almost a year and it is long past due for Dems to adopt this framing for 2 reasons: 1) it is entirely and demonstrably true. 2) the public must be prepared for the enormity of what will be required to dismantle the criminal organization and create a better democracy.

Unsurprising there's now a "debate" about welcomes to country, it's just another aspect of the strongly regressive cultural movement across the western world, away from generosity and towards meanness. That, in turn, reflects anxiety. Fearful people are mean, simple as that.

Why are cycling rates so low in Australia? And if we want more people to have the choice of active transport options, what can we do? As @mhharrington.bsky.social explains, the benefits include cleaner and less congested cities, and happier and healthier people. #auspol
