The Vandal-ing continues at the State Library OF Victoria. Who needs DOGE when you've got this lot?

Don't let the State Library give our beloved indie café to a big player.

When Musk was rebutted by cave rescuer for his ridiculous idea to send a submarine to rescue kids trapped in a cave in Thailand, he labelled the rescuer a peadophile. Such a strange use of language. Concerning.

Yes yes yes

@mrdtjames.bsky.social excellent piece on muted response to a(nother) terrorism act on Aboriginal people

No statement and no lectern thumping from Sussan Ley, Albo unwilling to say ‘terrorism, muted response from media

The people that thought it would be good to have coaches on court at the tennis are probably the same people that thought it would be good for Karl Stefanovic to have a podcast.

Opinion | Reporting about the Perth attempted bombing spoke in the voice of bureaucracy, as if describing a traffic incident. There was no shock, no reckoning, no pause, @mrdtjames.bsky.social writes.
