Since we're talking about One Nation and their history of providing us with some truly exceptional candidates, this is from the PHON candidate for Macalister in the 2017 State election. One of the top ten twitter exchanges of all time.
"I have struggled with this realisation, that a life is not always equal to another life, throughout my own. It is written across continents & classes, but never so plainly to my living eyes as it is in the remarks of some of the most powerful people on Earth about the 'insects' in Gaza".

A ban by Israel on 37 international NGOs, including Doctors Without Borders, took effect with the new year. Aid groups, the United Nations and at least 10 foreign ministers have condemned the move, warning it will exacerbate Gazaβs already catastrophic humanitarian crisis.

meanwhile.... medicine has taken INSANE leaps and bounds in the last 2 years.
we're out here curing HIV and leukemia and creating 100% efficacy vaccines against all sorts of cancers, and now this??
between this and renewable energy outstripping fossil fuels in efficiency, the future is bright

A shiny green fly resting on a gravel path. It looks as though itβs made out of metal. It is intensely green and shiny and its abdomen is divided into a grid pattern by thin black lines that make it look like it has abs.
I donβt really have anything to say that canβt and hasnβt been better said by everyone else but if anyone needs something unexpectedly pretty I went to a local nature reserve today and saw the most beautiful fly Iβve ever seen in my life:
Ha, I have the same near-death-experience thought. Then once the drafting is done I start having intrusive thoughts about how annoying it would be to die before publication day.
While approving 27 new fossil fuel projects.
A government that canβt bring itself to tax fossil fuel, big tech or any wealth properly but defunds its critical institutions is not a good government, sorry

Joyce Carol Oates owned Elon so hard he's spent the last day posting about movies he hasn't seen in 15 years
Joyce Carol Oates @Joyce... 17h O So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciatesβ scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the "most wealthy person in the world."
Elon Musk ' @elonmusk X.com Oates is a liar and delights in being mean. Not a good human.

A stat we don't talk about enough: Newspapers have lost 77% of their jobs over the last 20 year, more than any of the 532 other industries tracked by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

What the fuck, European Parliament
DFAT has now confirmed Australians and others have been abused by Israeli authorities after their abduction from the flotilla.
Assaulted and injured. Deprived of sleep and medication. Still illegally detained.
The PM and Foreign Minister must urgently demand their safe release.
You can protest against Israelβs genocide in Gaza and unequivocally condemn the antisemitic terror attack in Manchester.
Donβt let politicians or the media tell you that you canβt do both.
