Climate action now. I hate corruption in politics so I hate the LNP, Tories and the GOP.
I get my daily Ukraine update from balloon-juice.com.
1. I had no idea this had actually posted. Bluesky seemed to be down at the time.

2. Probably. There are even victims reporting the exploding packages to the police who then ask them if they were admitting to stealing the packages.

Have a look at what Anne Hidalgo has been doing in Paris would be a good start. Plus hiring her when her term ends.

One of my favourite things of the era was the relish with which the announcer called Kelly Gruber’s name when he came up to bat #Bluejays

Makes you wonder what all those strength and conditioning staff have been doing

5 stars for the rabbit in headlights photo selection

Odd. You’d think they’d want third world countries to stick together with them.

That’s pretty much the US position today

The absolute joy of three kookaburras, on a fence 2 metres from your bedroom window, going off at 5 o’clock in the morning

I don’t think they intend to move everyone - anyone even. The new government has cut funding for the new capital drastically so it doesn’t look like they’re taking it seriously.

If you’re passing an environmental protection law with the Liberals, it’s definitely not an environmental protection law.

Good luck with moving it!

Just like Anthony Albanese here in Australia, Keir Starmer has shrunk into the role of Prime Minister

They don’t have anyone else less compromised

You think they’d have got suspicious when he demanded the payment in cash

Why doesn’t he just run for the leadership of the Liberal Party and merge the two.

The ‘no other reason’ isn’t quite correct. He also wants to stop people demanding the release of the Epstein Files. It would be unpatriotic to do so at times of war.

They’re the New Liberals. Scotty would be so proud.

My dad drove a Sherman Tank, though never in battle. He also tested the DD version and wasn’t impressed as when the skirt was raised the gun had to be pointed to the corner, right over the driver’s hatch
