The government has finally stopped drip feeding EPBC details and provided them to everyone! www.dcceew.gov.au/environment/...

One of many howlers

"The proposed changes will also allow certain biodiversity certificates issued under the Nature Repair Market to be used for environmental offsetting."

I’m absolutely flabbergasted that they refuse to acknowledge that we’re all part of mother earth and everything’s connected. It’s long overdue for #PlanetNotProfit #FuckConsumerism #FuckCorporateGreed 🤬

Denis - The COVID Info Guy @thecovidinfoguy.bsky.social · 17h

Exactly this — vaccines help prevent hospitalisation and death, but they don’t stop infection or transmission. That’s why masking is still so important. 😷

The post shows a tweet from journalist Taylor Lorenz responding to a tweet by David Moscrop. Moscrop mentions getting his annual flu and COVID shots, noting it should reduce illness and transmission. Lorenz replies, emphasizing that current COVID vaccines do not significantly prevent infection or transmission, warning that some vaccinated people may take more risks believing they’re fully protected. She adds that vaccines help prevent severe outcomes and death, but urges people to wear masks to stop infecting others.

Huge news from the ACT! Laws closing the loopholes exposed by Bird v DP have passed today. This means institutions can no longer hide behind technicalities to avoid responsibility for child abuse. Survivors deserve justice. Every state and territory must follow the ACT's lead.

"—the committing of genocide should be of utmost concern to everyone. That includes, of course, journalists. Journalists have a duty to report on a genocide with the seriousness it deserves." #GazaGenocide #GazaHolocaust

Failure to cover: A week of collective omission by the Australian media

It’s worth restating at the outset what should be taken as read by everybody: genocides matter a lot.

Good advice for Australian mainstream media.

Who were far more obsessed with whether our PM would get a meeting with the flaky fascist,
than seriously examining why we have such a close alliance with a dangerously bonkers authoritarian who enjoys shitting on his citizens. #auspol

Trump’s “mental faculties are crumbling like blue cheese, and major media need to write prominent stories about this alarming problem – not just stick a sentence into the 14th paragraph of a news story.”

Media must cover — not cover up — Trump’s unfitness

The president benefits from the failure to focus on his broken brain

Thanks Michael. Agree completely. Albo's Labor Govt is such a betrayal of "Labor values" (both in what they've done but also what they've failed to do). It's all about being conservative enough to gather enough votes to win and hold power. 😔 #auspol

Hot take: If you literally can't survive without it, a billionaire shouldn't own it.

Digital infrastructure is as essential as roads and hospitals. Let's act like it and nationalise it now.

“Again and again this Government tries to treat genocide as a messaging problem rather than a fundamental matter of human decency and international law.”
- @davidshoebridge.bsky.social is spot on, as per usual.

I’m so proud of this work. To be included alongside such incredible academics, esp Fiona Stanaway, is an honour and career highlight. Please read and share.

Health inequalities by ethnicity exist in Australia, but data typically used to examine such things - e.g. country of birth - tends to hide disparities. Here my colleagues and I explore this issue and highlight the need for richer ethnicity data. ijpds.org/article/view...

All Australians should be disgusted by weak & secretive Albanese Govt’s gutting of our already limp Freedom of Information laws.
Where are the rusted-ons protesting against this?

"the yellow line...is increasingly referred to in Israeli media as a 'new border'
...that will shrink the Gaza Strip, enlarge the western Negev and allow for Israeli settlements to be built there”.

The killing may have slowed, but the creeping annexation and ethnic cleansing of Gaza continues.
