#Minnsolini faces a revolt in the ALP branches. 'The Enmore-Camdenville, Dungog, Harris Park and Parramatta branches all passed motions calling on the Minns government to repeal protest laws, including restrictions rushed through parliament in the wake of the Bondi massacre.' https://archive.md/0OHhi #NSWFascism #auspol #StopIsrael #Palestine

This is one of the pictures the ACT cops confiscated when they shut down a gig at Dissent bar in Canberra last night. Obviously you should not share it.

First it was the poor and disabled (robodebt scam, then gutting the NDIS), now the elderly.
You are next.

Naturally, Ziofash frame free speech by artists who criticise apartheid Israel and its rancid Zionist political ideology as a 'provocation' - good on the Sydney Writers' Festival for continuing to host Randa Abdul-Fattah despite them. It is Zionism and criminal #Israel which are destructive "provocations" to people with a conscience.

This is supposedly what is causing trucking broker stocks to crash today:

"""
Thursday’s rout was sparked by an update from tiny AI logistics firm Algorhythm Holdings Inc., which said its SemiCab platform in live customer deployments was helping its customers’ internal operations to scale freight volumes by 300% to 400% without a corresponding increase in operational headcount. Shares of the company soared 12%.

Algorhythm, which had a market capitalization of less than $5 million before Thursday, previously operated as The Singing Machine Company, Inc. — selling karaoke products — until rebranding in 2024 as an AI logistics firm. The company reported less than $2 million in sales for the quarter ended September 30, with a net loss totaling nearly $3 million for the period.

"Australia should ostracise, not welcome" the visit of Israeli President Herzog.

Professor Ben Saul, UN Special Rapporteur

So Herzog will make an Official Visit to Parliament on Tuesday and journalists have been asked not to report on it. This is really bad. https://bsky.app/profile/nickfeik.bsky.social/post/3me6doslork2b #BanHerzog #auspol #Gaza #StopIsrael

Waiting for America to improve itself is about as useful as giving Enron more time to explain it's books.

Ocean waters are aging? What?
Yes: we oceanographers call 'age' the time since deep ocean water was last in touch with the atmosphere. It is a measure of 'ventilation', deep vertical overturning of the ocean.
Data show this process is slowing: #AMOC slowdown.
That is bad news for climate, and there is a serious risk of the AMOC crossing a tipping point in the next few decades towards an unstoppable shutdown. One of the worst-case climate change nightmares.
