The worst part of that op ed - against stiff and plentiful competition - is him calling immigration a "disgraceful vote-stacking operation" (which he immediately contradicts by referencing economic benefits) What's disgraceful FYI Steve Price is making accusations like that with no evidence.

Abbott was so bad as PM that his own socially conservative side of the party were plotting to dump him after less than 18 months - including Hastie's predecessor in Canning the late Don Randall. He's got considerably weirder since.

All the lip gloss being put on the AI boom as somehow good for climate or the energy transition is masking that, at the present moment, it's a disaster.

Not only more gas generation, but the worst, dirtiest, least efficient kind. Turning the clock back 25 years.

“Old economy” companies like Caterpillar and Williams are cashing in by selling smaller, less-efficient turbines to impatient developers.

Among many others at the CDC, the Trump regime laid off the staff of the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

“The publication’s storied history includes a June 1981 report that five previously healthy gay men were treated for an unusual pneumonia — the first hint of the AIDS epidemic.”

Consider AI generated images and video, regurgitated at inhuman rates onto the internet, totally destroying any ability to process accurate information as the internet is filled with sewage. It's also text, though.

Would you call this dapper fellow a bush turkey, a scrub turkey or a brush turkey?
I always thought they were bush turkeys…
Is it a geographical thing like the potato scallop/cake controversy?

This is like disbanding your military during World War Two.

The Trump regime is firing many of the 2,540 employee of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) during the ongoing government shutdown. Why? CISA dismissed Trump’s allegations of voter fraud in the 2020 election.

Think about how all the biggest billionaire sex pest freaks are those few who survived the dot com bust.

And how when the AI bubble even more violently pops, a new generation of pre-composted overnight billionaire failson fuckups will be a scourge for the quarter century afterward.

So they've fired everyone at the CDC EIS (epidemic intelligence service, the "disease detectives") and the folks who do www.cdc.gov/mmwr/index.h... so a big day for Nurgle and other death cults. Also everyone at CISA. Fucking hell.
