@allusionistshow.bsky.social Australian here. So you asked about Tony Abbott?
I think Oniongate was too memorable to need to be his worst offence. It was:

- easy to explain, e.g. to children
- easily memeable,
including into monochrome posters

Some of the nicest people I know are ex-Mormons
But this helps explain some of the nicest Mormons too: “TIL”
(The world is a bloody broad church. I should challenge myself, as well as others, to briefly state the difference between Trotskyite and Marxist, and Marxist and Leninist)

The last two reposts just go to prove — it's the virus you should be afraid of, not the vaccine
Even the AZ vaccine that was quickly withdrawn, only impacted me for a month. Vaccines side-effects strongly tend to be temporary.

1 in 5 COVID survivors still have symptoms 3 years after severe infection, analysis estimates.
"Neurologic, pulmonary, and cardiovascular symptoms were the most prevalent"
"Death rates were also higher in those with and without neurologic signs at 3 years"

Toxic floods of lies on social media platforms like Facebook have destroyed trust not fact checkers. Let me reiterate: Mark Zuckerberg has never cared about that and never will.
"We're going to get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with community notes, similar to X, starting in the U.S," Mark Zuckerberg announces
He asserts that "the fact-checkers have just been too politically biased, and have destroyed more trust than they've created, especially in the U.S."

This is how TV *actually* looked in 1984.
Enjoy! I’ve been sitting on this half-finished for years. Adds a bit of fireworks to your New Year’s Eve. Enjoyed best in brightest HDR on a 4K display with headphones — produced in 4K300.

Simon Holmes à Court on Climate 200, donation reforms and why Kerry Stokes wields more power than he does
Labor’s electoral reforms are framed around diluting the influence of Simon Holmes à Court. But the Climate 200 founder says this will only cut the legs out from under independent challengers.

@therealjohnbarron.bsky.social That was an amazing segment on PEP, thank you for that! Brought back memories of a misspent youth listening to AM talkback (it all started with a Dick Smith electronics kit, hand built). They put telephone-audio (low-pass) filters on you and it was amazing! 269 0669
