Hospital orderly in Aus.

Formerly a maritime engineer. Worked for a US firm during Trump's first term, which ruined my life.

Interesting new video from Sloan, worth a watch. Confirms my worry from last election - rising One Nation vote. They gained a WA seat 🙁 and might get more next time ☹️. Concerns.

I think it would be better renamed Warthog
@Leapmotorglobal renaming the A10 budget friendly SUV #Ev is to be renamed the B03X

to be honest, Keep the A10 naming Leapmotor!

Energy transitions can happen faster than we think:

In 2000 almost 90% of Denmark's electricity was from fossil fuels.

In 2024 less than 10% of Danish electricity was from fossil fuels.

Not surprised in the least.

This one is a fun read. Such galling, shameless corruption without a wiff of contrition.

This spook scandal cries out for investigation. ANAO, IGIS & PJCIS should all be on the case, but there should be public scrutiny, not the usual behind closed doors cover-up. High time too for senior bureaucrats publicly disclosed their interests. #auspol

Vaccines DO NOT cause autism - there is extensive research showing this. Resurrecting old, discredited, fraudulent work is shameful.

Vaccine-preventable illnesses are serious - this is going to cause real harms.

This is dangerous & disappointing.

“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas & city center in 2021.”
Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death
The capital city is Finnish’ed with car-related fatalities.

Diplomacy. As guests in a foreign country, the US thinks that their full-time army can access foodbanks.
The 37,000 🇺🇸US soldiers stationed in 🇩🇪Germany are facing US gov’t shutdown-related hardships.

The US Army therefore published a guide on its website with tips on how they can survive, listing links to emergency social benefits and loans, and recommending German food banks.

Absolutely amazing: they've got so much solar in Australia that they need more people to use more of it, so the gov't has instructed energy retailers to offer *at least three hours of free power* during the middle of the day.

Meanwhile fossil-addled US struggles with an energy-price crisis ...
Energy retailers to be directed to offer free power three hours a day
Saying there is enough solar power for everyone in the daytime, Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen will direct retailers to provide three hours of free power every day to consumers.

Pilot on his phone while entering port, but wind a big factor: max allowable (20kn) when they entered then unexpected wind increase as they arrive. See the video and ATSB report.

Glad to hear that Leeuwin II is sailing again.

Watched the latest ep of If Your Listening by @mattbevan.bsky.social

He mentions a 'creepy' dude at 1:50. Gotta mention dude is Palmer Luckey, CEO of Anduril Ind.

The creep is earning millions from gov defence contracts. He won a UUV contract with Aus uncompetitively. Why back him?

While this is happening, there's a generous subsidy for wealthy Australians to buy home batteries.
New report exposes what’s happening behind the prepaid meter. If it happened in Sydney, it would be a scandal. In First Nations communities, it’s policy.
