A new parliamentarian has been elected in Israel. His name is Moshe Feiglin. His views? "Every child, every baby in Gaza is an enemy. We need to conquer Gaza and colonise it. And not leave a single child there. There is no other victory." Read that again. Worse than a Nazi.🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Great speech by @davidshoebridge.bsky.social at the National Press Club. Interesting to watch the very steamed up response from the audience. Putting human rights and peace first is obviously a new positioning. #auspol

Sounds familiar.

Some Lula supporters apparently shouted his name out their window when it was announced he won and a cop pointed his gun at him and they took what is possibly the greatest image of a cop ever taken, like genuinely this would go hard as a cover for a Rage album its so poetic.

@albomp.bsky.social should not have appointed Jillian Segal to position of Commissioner. Grateful thanks @davidshoebridge.bsky.social for asking JS these very revealing questions. #auspol

The Australian government, potentially selling out this country's creatives, should be one of the biggest stories right now. We can't let this happen. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Amy Remeikis spot on identifying hypocrisy in calls for Australians to turn down temperature to reduce violence. What about also turning down factors upsetting many? #auspol open.substack.com/pub/deepcutn...

Wagga Wagga council just approved sale of land for a huge fucking data centre near the city.

Doug Cameron:”In my view it is now clear that AUKUS is about militarising Australia in interests of the US, ensuring the grifters in defence and the arms industry are well fed. It is an act of self-harm and madness on the part of the Australian government.” pearlsandirritations.com/post/2026/10...

A good day for democracy. Let’s keep this streak going.

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

Here’s a Bolsonaro-aligned congressman straight up announcing the coup plan

Why let NewsCorp portray a protest movement against our complicity in Israeli crimes as violent & hateful? How is that turning the temperature down? Why does he call protesting Australian complicity in genocide “pathology”? Why won’t he allow an inquiry into laws to stop Australian complicity?

It’s not just about who’s with you on stage. It’s about who’s with you backstage. Grateful for her love and partnership yesterday and every day…

So she not only sucks at knowing her kid, eventually her kid can google how her own mother struggled to compliment her because it was in the gd paper

Can’t help but think about speeches at The Big Occasions of life and death where people say *lame* things about what someone means to them in a halting voice without the vocabulary they want to have but it’s moving and lovely and human and it’s awesome. Then there is this.

A good🧵! always a gd reminder when one travels o/s & realise how ridiculously petty,overblown by pathetic horse race perspective political media,most of the issues we face.However,also how ridiculously solve-able most issues r but hindered by inconsequential/divisive petty focus group driven“debate”

All eyes on Brazil. 🇧🇷 #Vote13LulaPresidente

Shame we demolished it for a quick buck.

Scoop: ABC has wiped staff devices exposed to malicious ads from an Israeli company that used digital advertising to hack and track devices without a click. ABC is just one of many Australian government/critical infra/media orgs reportedly targeted www.abc.net.au/news/...

I would say only in America, but sorry Donnie, Peter Dutton did this first.

Why the fuck does the wizard book woman need 2 yachts? Is she smuggling all her transphobia across the sea?

The @news.abc.net.au needs to stop supporting violent men who attach women Signed - all the people who used to rely on the ABC but no longer

Because science, not prayer.... www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10... #melanoma #cancer

there is no other current or former politician in the US who gets this sort of response

"These are not serious people". But these are the people that Anthony Albanese and Richard Marles have outsourced Australia's defence strategy to. #EndAUKUS #auspol

Trump turned Sagan’s prediction into a reality.

Israeli forces have abducted around 70 Palestinians since yesterday, the collective punishment campaign escalates across the occupied West Bank.

What does Jared Kushner actually do with all that Saudi oil-dictator cash? After Trump hyped a massive gas plant and Amazon data center in tiny Homer City, Pa., Kushner and his Arab money bought into the project It's a climate disaster My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/hype...

Turning the temperature down by turning the bald-faced lying up.

Snowy Hydro project estimated cost now $24 billion, only 12 times what the Coalition government said it'd be when they announced it. They should've stuck to not building commuter car parks and shoveling money to corrupt politicians in Nauru, things they were good at.

Netanyahu orders a major offensive into the West Bank on the pretext of an unsuccessful attack by two gunmen, identity unknown. This is a blatant attempt to appeal to the Israeli far right before the looming election. An Israeli version of Wag the Dog. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10...

Bizarre. Don’t they know the RBA raised rates at the end of September???
