If a way to prevent deaths exists, and even with those resources available, you believe we should only keep the healthiest alive, you are the definition of a eugenicist.

Kennedy is a eugenicist.

Frydenberg claims Albanese should accept β€˜personal responsibility’ for Bondi attacks in escalation of rhetoric PM condemns β€˜perversion of Islam’ that police allege may be behind the attack

A man who has abjectedly failed the test of leadership at the first hurdle.

In the past, trying to revive your political career off the back of a massacre might be viewed as tasteless...

A reminder that gas is not a vital industry to Australia.

As Polly Hemming explains, if anything, it costs the Australian economy.

Treating animals with antibiotics is a very, very bad idea (unless it's for a individual animal who is sick) and especiallyin a marine environment. This is absolutely appalling. Do not buy Tasmanian salmon. Ever. To the politicians who supported this industry- You were so wrong.

Scott Ludlam wrote a few things a few years back on β€œstate capture” and it really sums up Australia’s craven giveaway of fossil fuel resources to foreign corps

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck?

It's the Pope in 1982.

The Trump-Albanese non-meeting is a classic case of media demanding it happen purely because the media think it matters.

Not one journo covering the US visit could explain what good they would expect to come of the meeting.

But they just assume it must be done.

I am sorry Charlie Kirk is dead, but I cannot mourn him. This is why Charlie Kirk was killed in the America he wanted. I still feel compassion in response to his death – but will I mourn him? No.

So I rewatched that South Park Charlie Kirk episode again last night, and they mentioned ICE giving out 50K signing bonuses on a 100K salary.

I thought they were exaggerating for comedic effect.
