I forgive you!
Melbournian. Been ordering flat whites at cafes for decades. Honestly could not tell you what the difference is b/w a flat white & a latte (other than the vessel it’s served in) & doubt I could tell the difference if the barista substituted one for the other.
Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.
No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.
Worth a watch.

"I had to punch that guy because I could tell he was going to hit me back once we jumped him" is just a description of jumping a guy
How could she even fire an arrow with those? Hasn’t he heard the stories of the amazons?
America first. Today’s Age cartoon
I don’t know how that stupid link got there - clumsy fingers. 😬
It was true, but not unkind. Unkind is making fun of him for his potato noggin. Which is also true and to which I will admit guilt.
First thing that’s made me laugh out loud for days.
I can’t say I’m disappointed exactly with his jumping to be first to support the US strikes on Iran because, to be disappointed, I would have had to expect something better from him. I’m now just sad & feel a bit hopeless.
I started off disappointed years ago - now it feels more like despair.
And Albo, Marles & Wong: ‘We support the United States’. I expected it, but still makes me sad & angry in equal measure.
my local park is full of hundreds of snow sculptures and someone has been adding museum labels
I’ve always known it as Hill of Con-TENT (as in peace/satisfaction).
And the Anti-Semitism Royal Commission’s terms of reference must be expanded to explicity address all forms of racist hate and white supremacist violence.
Words of concern are not enough. Where is the concrete action? Where is the coordinated response to white supremacist extremism?
We’ve seen neo-Nazis attack Camp Sovereignty, white supremacist terrorism unleashed against Aboriginal people on Invasion Day in Boorloo, and now our Muslim brothers and sisters being targeted during Ramadan.
The Albanese Government must treat this as the national security threat it is.
For a minute there, I thought they’d added some gold tat to the columns!
Not just movies - I’ve seen this in the wild, e.g. in Syria during Hafez al-Assad’s rule. Frightening.
Not very friendly ones!
Jim Chalmers is somewhere laughing his head off.
North Sentinel Island sounds good
This is more like perfidy.
Exactly what I was thinking. They’ve seen how the community has come together & want to break that.
So, they’re already challenging birthright citizenship, & now also naturalisation. Hm.
If you care about heritage in space, you might have heard of For All Moonkind, run by Ole Miss law professor Michelle Hanlon. She's just published a blog saying that archaeologists have no contribution to make regarding heritage in space. spacelawandethics.substack.com/p/who-actual...
We'll say it again: "social cohesion", to those who chant it, means maintenance of the status quo which privileges them, and silencing of everyone else. In the mouth of a Labor MP, it is an expression of the deepest hypocrisy.
I'm Australian and even I know that. I also know that a lot of 'Mexican' families didn't cross the border into the US - the border crossed them.
Grace Tame is a righteous babe. Whatever side she's on is going to be the righteous one.
"Social cohesion is a scam, a strategy employed by the powerful to delegitimise and suppress the voices of the less powerful... If you are othered by powerful groups, you become the victim of cohesion, not the beneficiary; what you get from social cohesion is a punch from an armed official."

Everybody noting his brilliant political cartoons, of course, but I also loved the art he shared with us, and the Tasmanian-ness of them all - the wombats, currawongs, tassie devils, the bush. I couldn't resist this little beauty. www.kudelkashop.com
