If Reform had won this, it would be all over our media as an β€˜unstoppable force’ and Hanson would be platformed as saying it was inevitable here. But no one ever treats a progressive win in the same way. That’s an β€˜outlier’

Ireland’s basic income for the arts scheme becomes permanent When piloted, initiative that provided €325 a week to eligible artists recouped more than its net cost, study shows

Gee, Universal Basic Income recoups more than it costs AND the recipients are happier and healthier.

Hmmm. Where have I seen those results before? Oh yes, in every other goddam pilot study of UBI for more than a decade. Ireland joins Finland in at least making a start.

Since the early days of the space program, astronauts have quarantined before missions because any illness could be disastrous. It’s eminently logical β€” not β€œextreme” β€” for athletes who’ve trained their WHOLE LIVES for one event to take similar precautions in order to stay in peak physical condition

T20 World Cup tv caption claiming Scotland has a population of 5.5 billion...

Decent start for Scotland followed by some serious biffage from Hetmyer but kept West Indies down to 182 in the end. Tough chase but with 5.5 billion cheering them on they can dare to dream! #T20WC #WIvSCO

Venezuela isn't about fentanyl or national security. It's about oil and Epstein.

The Bondi terrorist shot dead by police was among those riding the property boom, with his home in Sydney’s west worth more than $1 million. SEE INSIDE

Australia’s housing market isn’t a ladder, it’s a Ponzi scheme.

The new β€œfirst home buyer” plan just feeds the property lobby while renters queue in Bondi.

End negative gearing. Scrap CGT perks. Tax Airbnb rorts. Everyone knows how to fix it. No one’s got the guts.

If the government and judiciary don’t back you up, then regardless of what the law β€œsays” as a citizen you don’t have any rights

Laws and rights are not things that exist independently of the people in power

They are statements and conditions that are upheld only if power so chooses

Article reads:
Woman named as Archbishop of Canterbury in historic first 

The 63-year-old archbishop-designate is married to Eamonn Mullally, with whom she has two children. Originally from Woking in Surrey, she was the UK's chief nursing officer from 1999 to 2004.

This article manages to name her husband before it names… her.

People signing the Global Pledge for Healthy Indoor Air at the UN

Yesterday, history happened at the UN: For the first time hundreds of orgs signed a global pledge declaring that healthy indoor air is a human right.

Healthy indoor air is a key tool for preventing pandemics, building climate resilience, and increasing health equity. We need it everywhere!

The Stats Guy: 5 years on, this is how Australia changed since Covid.

In the past 5 years, Australia recorded 942,000 deaths β€” 100,000 more than pre-pandemic. Of these, 20,000–30,000 are considered β€œexcess deaths due to Covid.”

The BS asymmetry principle: The amount of energy needed to refute BS is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it.

Thank you to every science communicator who is doing the almost impossible work of countering misinformation every day. Every single one of you is saving lives!

If you’re wondering how batshit bananas he has to be to claim, without any evidence, that Tylenol causes autism, let’s not forget his other proclamations:

β€œWindmills cause cancer”

β€œInjecting bleach cures Covid”

β€œUV light cures Covid”

β€œSummer cures Covid”

β€œCovid will get bored and go away”
