The mainstream media needs to stop presenting "news" as presenting "both sides" and go back to doing the job that journalists are supposed to do. That is investigating and presenting facts!

Fascinating stuff

Birds all over the world use the same sound to warn of threats

The findings of a new study about communication between birds also offer key insights into the origins of language.

I think I might have to make one of these!

Much like "crab", industrial music is constantly re-evolving from first principles basically anywhere where there's a bunch of metal and plastic laying about

Over 100,000 Australians marched across the symbolic heart of Sydney today, and together we showed more leadership on one rainy afternoon than our PM and Foreign Minister have shown in 2 years from the comfort of their offices. Free Palestine. Sanction Israel. 🇵🇸 🕊️

As part of this (not)karaeoke project I aimed to show that I am more than a noise improviser and I feel this track demonstrates this. Having said that though, my improvisation skills were a major part of this,. I did one take on vocals and drums

Two years too late. Aid restrictions must be removed now!

Senator David Shoebridge @davidshoebridge.bsky.social · Jul 21
