I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.
Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

A red-capped plover at Bald Hill Beach, South Australia.
These busy little shorebirds don't migrate so, during the winter months when most others have gone, you can usually still find these darting along the water's edge.

Still think that if Albanese really wanted to reduce harm to under 16 yr olds, restricting exposure to sports gambling was a lower hanging fruit than social media, and much more simpler to enforce. But here we are. Trad media wanted to hit back against tech, instead of their own revenue source

Added seasons and breeding to the #gamedev herd experiment!
The bison group into smaller herds but collectively migrate with the sun to be near the fertile grass. Populations boom in the good season and start to tank in the off season.

Thomas Sewell is a very dangerous man. That he can turn up threatening the premier two days after being filmed attacking Camp Sovereignty and he still isn't arrested is quite something.
