Who were those people cheering on hate during Trump's addled speech in Pennsylvania? People who value white supremacy over freedom, fairness & care for our fellow citizens.

Well, Australian here. Count me out. Lucky I don’t have rellos in the USA. This will be very hard for people that do. We couldn’t possible trust the USA not to put us in detention.

Heads up people!
"when ice that binds the organic matter in soil melts, microbes get to work decomposing it..they respire a mix of CO2 & CH4 depending on conditions & types of microbes..When temperatures pass 1.5ºC..emissions..increase to 2.5Gt/year, around the same as India"

Permafrost emissions are on track to overtake India’s human emissions
Arctic Amplification, driving temperature increases up to 4x faster than the rest of the world, is melting Permafrost at alarming rates that will soon see it’s emissions eclipse even large countries.

They're still coming in at the rate of about 4 or 5 per minute. Result? They have strengthened my determination to see Barghouti freed. When states or other actors have to resort to such tactics, you know you're doing something right.

I signed the letter calling for the release of Marwan Barghouti. Overnight, I've received some 2,000 attack emails, identical text but different purported senders and subject headers. Still coming through now. Other signatories also getting it. Definitely an op.

Francesca Albanese slams the ‘ceasefire’:

‘Intended to achieve what the genocide could not’
‘The ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from Gaza 🇵🇸’
‘The end of the Palestinians right to self determination’

‘To prevent this we must restore trust in the UN’

“Whether it’s directing conversations to Signal so that they are untraceable and fall outside archiving obligations, or the use of so-called ‘stand up’ meetings to avoid keeping proper notes of meetings, they ... point to a broader misunderstanding of the obligations of government.”

Exclusive: PM’s office directs lobbyists to use encrypted, disappearing messages
Multiple sources confirm the Albanese government has pushed lobbyists and industry groups to use encrypted messages and verbal briefings when proposing policy ideas, to avoid FOI and disclosure requirements.

It’s not inevitable that we get sick over the holidays! We can take steps to keep each other safe. Wear a well fitting respirator mask like n95, kn95, kf94 or better starting now! Use hepa filters to clean the air. Open the windows!
COVID isn’t acting like the viruses most of us grew up with, and treating it like “just a cold” is putting people at real risk. David Brasure breaks down why SARS-CoV-2 is fundamentally different, how it causes long-term damage, and what we can do to protect ourselves.

Looking forward to public disclosure of specialist fees. My mum had a neurologist appointment this year, private system, 6 month waiting period due to shortages of this specialist on the Gold Coast. Out of pocket gap $700, and told that there was nothing wrong with her ie. no definitive diagnosis

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".
