The Canadian prime minister even spoke of a “rupture” between the U.S. under Trump and its Western allies that would never be repaired.

Last VIP I attended was @peterhookthelight.bsky.social just over 3 years ago in Melbourne (we were very pregnant) but now the 3 year old has his turn and it's BLUEY with VIP tickets so we'll meet Bluey. Just as exciting as having met Peter Hook. BTW 3yo ABSOLUTELY LOVES "Transmission".

Solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Greenland and Denmark.

America you are despicable. How dare you threaten to kill Greenlanders, Danes and fellow NATO allies just so you can steal Greenland.

As with everything in NATO, you may temporarily take it but you wont keep it. Forever war!

BlyeSky is still lying about it being required by the Australia government to identify all users.

BlueSky is lying.

Australia does NOT require by law ANY bs users to prove identity (like with passports etc).

BlueSky is collecting IDs with no legally mandated purpose.

BlueSky is lying.

We reached a high of 40degC today.

Fire alert/active fires in most of the State of Victoria (Australia). Saw many firetrucks underway today.

The temp just dropped 13degC in 1 hr and so it started to rain. But there is so much bush fire ash in the atmosphere that the rain is brown.

Seaford Beach café for late brekkie. Nice and cool now. The 38degC in the shade yesterday was brutal.

You just wouldn't understand.

A very German Merry Christmas from Australia

Watching the original Grinch (1966) in FR, DE and EN with the 3yo. DVD bought 26 years ago in Germany.

Nothing better.

It is simply incorrect that BlueSky is complying with laws in Australia. There is no legal requirement for BkueSky. You know this and still claim this. That is called lying. And you know it. @bsky.app

BlueSky IS NOT ON THE LIST.

THERE IS NO AUSTRALIAN LEGAL MANDATE TO REQUIRE FACEPAGES OF GOVT ID, CREDIT CARDS OR FULL FACIAL SCANS.

Woah! Bluesky just took ALL my chats hostage and is extorting personal identity information, like ID cards, credit cards, pictures of my face.
