I was chased by one of these very scary birds near Cairns when riding my bike in the 1990s. It lived on Mt Whitfield. Not there now, unfortunately. Also, lots of Cassawaries around Mission Beach.

"Howard tied us to America so tightly, it would take a world-altering event to unshackle us. The tragic truth is though, even then, we would probably be on America’s side, even if it meant our own destruction," writes @amyremeikis.bsky.social.

It’s pathetic how gaslit the American public is about how this administration operates…
Absolutely, historically pathetic.
How fucking underserved is the US population understanding what is being done in their name… and who DIRECTLY profits from it.

Oligarchs need to get the fuck out of news media.

ICE HAS COMMITTED YET ANOTHER ATROCITY!

They deported & abandoned across the border little baby Juan NicolΓ‘s who's just 2-months-old & was unresponsive & hospitalized just this morning along with his 16-month-old sister & parents. The sick infant was only treated for a few hours.

Kristi Noem said: …”we've been proactive to make sure that we have the RIGHT people voting, electing the RIGHT leaders to lead.”
When they tell you who they are, BELIEVE them.

Kristi Noem said: …”we've been proactive to make sure that we have the RIGHT people voting, electing the RIGHT leaders to lead.” When they tell you who they are, BELIEVE them.

Noem’s statement should put us all on alert. It implies that the federal govt. should engineer outcomes of elections by choosing voters who will ensure THEIR preferred outcomes, rather than letting all eligible citizens participate freely. Sounds might white to me.

When someone says their country executes pedophiles and you respond by claiming that they are calling for the execution of Donald Trump, you are revealing that you know Donald Trump is a pedophile.

Thank you for you attention to this matter.

The arrest of Don Lemon is textbook fascismβ€”a brazen attempt to silence reporting on a criminal regime. Stand up for Don, because our rights stand and fall with those of courageous journalists throughout this country.
