We are not all the same, but we are all equal.
Right #Geelong, it is almost 11am. Close up the house and batten down the hatches. The heat has just arrived. #heatvic #vicfires

Stay safe everyone. See you on the other side.

shaun over here fails at being an understanding human. We can't definitively say why, but we can speculate.

Don't be like shaun. Words matter. Be better.

No one should have to experience this. I'm sorry it keeps happening.

Let's say it together: "Don't be like shaun. Be better"
Every January.

Like clockwork.

One problem that Americans have to get past is that this *is* who they are.

It’s not an aberration - this is what the US society is.

All that time kidding yourself about being the greatest nation on earth you have been murdering your own citizens and those in other countries.

For our American friends, this is how your President’s slur on *our troops who died for you* is being received by the rest of your allies, a 🧵.

I've been humbled by a candle and a table in the pursuit clearing out bugs tonight. This idiot lit the (almost empty) candle, put it on a plastic table in the shed (next to the open door) and walked out. 1/2

Not totally accurate in the post below but still "suspect was on bail over DV charges at time he allegedly killed three people, police say"

*great job, Angus well done Taylor (returned from OS yet?);
*or the religious military man Hastie?

Trump finally realizing that the speech was about him:
Trump: “Dear Prime Minister Carney:
 
Please let this Letter serve to represent that the Board of Peace is withdrawing its invitation to you regarding Canada’s joining, what will be, the most prestigious Board of Leaders ever assembled, at any time.
 
Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

#auspol, anyone sensing #libspill soon?

Nats defy shadow cabinet position over hate speech vote. Ley either sacks the contravening Nats thus rupturing the coalition, or, does nothing of note, further undermining her authority. Either way, for Ley, spending more time with family soon is v probable.

Donald is projecting how he believes elite validation works.

Syria, Iran, Ukraine, Denmark, Russia, G7 meeting, Greenland, topped off with a casual invitation for dinner in France, so Macron can offer thanks and stroke his indefatigable ego because Trump "sets Europe straight at Davos"

Fake note.
This is nuts.

World leaders are trying to do diplomacy. Trump is screenshotting and posting private messages from heads of state like it’s a gossip session.

Australien government:
We are stamping out hate speech*

*unless you’re quoting the hate speech in your religion’s sacred text, in which case we exempt you from tax and give you a shitload of money to run schools to indoctrinate more kids in your hate speech.

Cool and normal

Amazing when you have a system that lets the private sector deliver a public service it gets rorted.

Grog’s Rule: When you privatise public services be sure to also allocate space in a few years for the Royal Commission into abuses in the system.
Weird that it’s turning out to be the providers, not the recipients, ripping off the NDIS.

It’s almost as if the Morrison government was so incompetent that it’s taken three years of organised work to clean it up. Incompetent and/or corrupt.

I don't know how to read these. All I know is the closer to 9 on the bar charts and the more negative the Bz number, the more chance of aurora.
