Still astounded by folks who see what’s happening to Twitter through the prism of how it affects them, not the prism of how it will affect the US presidential election, climate policy, health policy, social decency.

It’s like Facebook and Trump, Johnson, Morrison never happened.

In the last few weeks, the people have forsaken Science, and we are now #4 on the discover page.

Would really appreciate likes ❤️ on the feed below - which is a different thing to adding ➕ them. This keeps us visible, and the science feed works best when we have a stream of new contributors.

Remember when Turnbull was afraid of Dutton so he made a special princedom called Duttonland and made Dutton Prince of Home Affairs, as weak kings have so often done before?

And now the exiled Turnbull complains about the corrupt power he helped create, without a word of apology to us.

Today is Gough Whitlam’s birthday.

Today ALP politicians will claim love for Whitlam and dedication to his legacy.

Today ALP politicians will maintain their support for AUKUS and tax cuts for the rich.

This is all play acting. Crown knowingly offered a money laundering service to organised crime. They’re getting away with it. The fine is loose change.

Crown Resorts ordered to pay $450 million fine for breaching money laundering laws
Crown's fine is the third largest in Australian corporate history, behind payments made by Westpac ($1.3 billion) and the Commonwealth Bank ($700 million).

Did you know that Clive Palmer is suing Australia for $40 BILLION?

You and me, the taxpayers, will be paying that if he wins.

To put that in context, Medicare costs us $39.5 billion a year.
