Eternally curious to the point of being annoying, or so I’m told.
Aim to be encouraging
Please don’t give me an excuse to bite you

The liberal party doesn't need a new leader it needs better members with policymakers that will make Australia better

Try that for a change #àuspol

The sheer volume of cash that gets spat out of the bezos philanthropic firehose is hard to comprehend, but importantly, that money is used to control the direction of climate action and research in a way that doesn't threaten Amazon's business model. Eg: boosting carbon offsets
Billionaires aren’t going to save the planet: The Bezos Earth Fund, AI, and carbon offsets
A recent report by Grain highlights the conflicts of interest and promotion of carbon offsets in the Bezos Earth Fund.

So when an ophthalmologist who makes funny videos feels the need to post advice on what to do for your eyes if you're pepper sprayed, the scale of the horror is pretty starkly illustrated. www.youtube.com/shorts/z4dy0...

Saddened to hear the news that Australian cartoonist Jon Kudelka @kudelka.bsky.social has passed. A good man. 😢 🎨 #auspol

Oi, @thesaturdaypaper.com.au
Would you please alter the need to ‘sign up’ to read this one today?
That’d be fitting don’t you think?
Vale Jon Kudelka (1972-2026). He was one of the sharpest political cartoonists this country has ever produced. He saw through the folly and cant but never let it dim his own warmth or decency. Thoughts are with his family. You can read his essay on cartooning here:

Lessons from political cartooning
After being diagnosed with an inoperable glioblastoma, The Saturday Paper’s editorial cartoonist took time to consider what really matters – and it is not politics.

His enemies were a credit to him
You’ll hear it said that Jon Kudelka was a genuinely wonderful and generous man, this was undeniable, and the interactions I had with him bore that out, he was also a fucking punisher of hypocrites, he adored fighting bad people, and he had picked some quality enemies

This is really the critical point: Firefox is packing its browser with AI slop functions by default; relying on a user actively choosing to turn it off.

That isn't neutral - that is a political and ideological statement that they want more reliance on these tools

Absolute disgrace!!!
Doctors in the Riverland (SA) charge $200 for new patients. It's a broken system.

He's my very special, sensitive, boy. He's honestly the sweetest, most simplest of dogs I've ever met. His thought processes resemble a single marble bouncing around in a Rube Goldberg machine of complicated ramps, tubes and gears that never quite arrives where it should. And he really loves berries

Thinking of sending all my posts here to Jillian Segal before I publish them. Perhaps Bluesky could just let her moderate the whole site. Can't be too careful.

Big Oil "purchased solar and EV patents to ensure others couldn’t use them, solicited control of renewable markets and then abandoned them, and funded powerful institutions to promote false solutions, all while using trade groups to downplay the harms of fossil fuels, according to the complaint." 😠
A Secret Oil Cartel Might Have Killed Our Clean-Energy Future
In a landmark antitrust case, Michigan alleges oil companies colluded to “capture and kill” clean-energy and electric-vehicle efforts.

When I was a medical student 45 years ago, I clerked in a 13 year old girl with deep jaundice and an abdominal mass. She was Hepatitis B positive. That had led to a primary liver tumour. In a 13-year-old. She was dead within the month. Avoidable with vaccination.
The CDC has endorsed ACIP’s decision of revoking universal access in USA to hepatitis B vaccines at birth. The policy had been in place for 34y and was changed despite no new evidence emerging of any risk of vaccination. #HealthPolicy 🧵
CDC accepts ACIP’s hepatitis B vaccine recommendations for babies
The CDC also said if a baby is not receiving a birth dose of vaccine, the initial dose should be administered no earlier than 2 months of age.
