How is this sovereign if OpenAI are involved? Answer: it’s not.

#OpenAI are getting up there with #Meta as the absolute worst big tech you can use. Anything else is preferable.

Quite a powerful speech from Kerry O'Brien at the Walkley Awards last week. This is the unredacted version, compared to Channel Nine which removed the opening section regarding the deaths of journalists in Gaza.

Rising Tide 2025 - Newcastle

Second Day of Blockade.

More coal ships delayed, and a lot of committed protesters making it happen. Awesome work from so many people.

2 panel editorial cartoon. Title at top ‘Balance’. Top panel labelled ‘Then’ - two debating teams either side with moderator between, team on the left has sign on table ‘Affirmative’, team on right ‘Negative’. Lower panel labelled ‘Now’ - exactly the same image but this time the left reads ‘Misinformation’, right reads ‘Disinformation’.

I can’t imagine what it is like to be a 15 year old. Surrounded by adults with terminal doomscrolling addictions. Those same adults lecturing you on your mental health. Get real, ban social media with algorithms altogether. #auspol

#RisingTide protestival Some time about 4pm the cops all departed - seems the Port has stopped coal ships for the night. Which is actually the point of the blockade. This is an empty one arriving earlier, being booed by the crowd. #auspol #climatechange

Huge. Foreign firms were allowed to just walk in, ignoring and trashing industrial relations law with barely any challenge or push back, leveraging that massive advantage to dominate the market.

Step two. Destroy them in Australia suing for stolen wages.
