Saw this lovely sandstone house while walking around Glenelg. Could never afford it or want to live in it, but this classic design is so much nicer than the copy & paste cubes around it.

Got to love the cyclical nature of Politics. Barnaby Joyce used to be the guy the Nationals were apologising for daily, now he’s the guy apologising for One Nation bullshit every day. It sounds like one of the levels of hell and, in my opinion, he deserves it. #Auspol

Remember when the promise of technology was to increase our free time, raise education standards, automate dull tasks. Instead now, it's being weaponised to wring every spare fucking dollar out of us and the hardware itself, is now becoming increasingly priced out of our reach.

Discovering new levels of LinkedIness
Screenshot of a LinkedIn post announcing a promotion at Bank of America. The author’s name and profile details are blacked out. 

The post reads:

“I am truly grateful for the opportunity to step into this new role as Assistant Manager. This achievement is a reflection of the hard work, dedication, and support that have been part of my journey. I am excited to continue learning, growing, and leading by example while supporting my team and making a positive impact on our clients and our community. I look forward to this next chapter and everything we will accomplish together. Bank of America”

Below is a red, white, and navy promotional graphic featuring a young man in a dark suit and tie. Large text reads: “Bank of America. Proud to announce. I have been promoted to Assistant Manager at Bank of America.” A quote at the bottom says: “Grateful for the opportunity. Committed to the team. Focused on making an impact.”

The household battery revolution that could change energy bills … and the world

The household battery revolution that could change energy bills … and the world
Australia is pioneering a revolution in home renewables and battery use, proving what is possible with the right policies The timing was rich with symbolism. As intense heatwaves pummelled Europe and Asia, and oil markets around the world leapt and sputtered, the two big chimneys of one of Australia’s largest power stations were being demolished. Meanwhile, the Australian energy minister was holding a media conference to hail a fall of up to 10% in the benchmark electricity price in parts of the country. Quietly, and with surprisingly little fanfare from the rest of the world, Australia is pioneering a revolution in home renewables and battery use, proving what is possible with the right policies. The country was already one of the global leaders in domestic solar power, with panels on one in three homes. It also remains, however, a major contributor to the climate crisis through its vast fossil fuel exports.. But it is batteries that are giving Australia a new burst of speed. Continue reading...

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites. The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

'Hero' who wrestled gun from Bondi shooter named as Ahmed al Ahmed

A "hero" bystander who was filmed wrestling a gun from one of the Bondi Beach attackers has been named as 43-year-old Ahmed al Ahmed.

Video verified by the BBC showed Mr Ahmed run at the gunman and seize his weapon, before turning the gun round on him, forcing his retreat.

Mr Ahmed, a fruit shop owner and father of two, remains in hospital, where he has undergone surgery for bullet wounds to his arm and hand, his family told 7News Australia.

If you filmed & uploaded footage of the victims of the Bondi attack this evening instead of helping, even just holding someone’s hand, telling them they’d be OK, or waiting with them until help arrived, I hope the AFP tracks you down & holds you accountable for your actions.
