In case you have Latino friends, here’s your friendly end of year reminder as a public service:

Feliz año nuevo = Happy new year

Feliz ano nuevo = Happy new anus

The “~” matters.

The Israeli government December list of the most antisemitic organisations/individuals in Australia doesn't include the National Socialist Network or their leader, neo-Nazi Tom Sewell m, who call for the eradication of Jews; but it does include anti-genocide advocates

My latest article addresses this point comprehensively.
A great deal of Zionist rhetoric has been aimed at our education system, at artists and journalists, at universities for the "student encampments", at our freedom of speech, at our freedom of assembly, at our freedom to teach, at our freedom to wear clothes and accessories (no kheffyehs, no pins, no watermelons, no reference whatsoever to Palestinian existence), at our healthcare system. No one who objects to the Zionist murder of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians is safe. Total obedience and total erasure is required, and it will be demanded in the most emotional and sensational way possible so as to override critical reasoning. And yet, looking at Segal's plan, looking at the demands, there is not a single thing that, having been enacted, would have prevented the Bondi terrorist attack. It wasn't carried out by a uni grad, or artist, or activist - it was carried out by a bricklayer and his unemployed loser father who somehow gained access to weapons they should never have had. What's more, the Muslim community warned police about the extremist preacher the terrorist was connected to, over a decade ago, and were told authorities wanted it kept open because "it was a good source of intel".

60 Minutes confirmed what you already knew: mainstream journalism, sponsored by corporate ads and owned by oligarchs, is dead.

Taking its place are scrappy one-person research and op-ed pubs with no conflicts of interest.

The future of truth is decentralized. Support independent thinking.

The so-called AJA has no membership base and no statitstics of any kind - or evidence of having members

It's just an astro-turfing website, run by an unhinged whacko Zionist drunk and his stay-at-home son. It's not an "association" of any one

People should treat it accordingly

Guns are to blame for Bondi tragedy, not PM Anthony Albanese, peace protestors or Iran who are all being fingered in the frenzy of blame

We won't be lectured on "extremism" by a party who:
- can't tell the difference between antisemitism and legitimate criticism of Israel
- actively supports a genocide
- used racism to defeat The Voice
- voted "It's OK to be white", and
- is considering a white supremacist migration policy. #auspol

Barnaby out.
My @smh @theage cartoon.
Single frame. Barnaby exiting a room from which a leg kicks, a hand flipping the bird, another throwing a tomato, an akubra hat and a beetroot flying, and “BUGGER OFF!” and “GOOD RIDDANCE!” Barnaby in melodramatic pose looking back says “Don’t try to beg me - I’ve made up my mind.” In front of him, Pauline Hanson in burqa (dress, legs and high heels showing) arms outstretched, saying “COME TO MAMA!” - eclipsed by Gina Rinehart behind her, long white dress, same pose also saying “COME TO MAMA!”

Hi @bsky.app

If you want this to be a global platform, how about trending topics reflecting the other 96% of the world's population?

The domination of this site by American news and American topics is one of its greatest drawbacks

An Australian report evaluating the Cass Review has recommended that it should not be used as a guide of any kind in regards to the care of young trans people.

The new report was one of a series published in a special edition of The Medical Journal of Australia

Fat generals.
My @smh @theage cartoon.
Single frame. Scene of Pete Hesgeth on stage beside lectern in front of huge US flag. Hegseth says: “Under my command, there will be no more fat troops, generals and admirals in the halls of the Pentagon.” To his right is an elephant with an orange face and a long red tie.

Apropos of nothing: in July 1935 German generals were called to a surprise assembly in Berlin and informed their previous oath to the Weimar constitution was void and they would be required to swear a personal oath to the Führer. Most generals took the new oath to keep their positions.
