The focus on the ‘sensible centre’ has created a bad map where the road leads to nowhere, ignoring evidence when convenient and stifling democratic debate.

We went from $200 million and you will pay for absolutely none of it to $600 million *at a bare minimum* and you will pay for almost all of it No president has ever stolen more money from the American people

Live streams of executions. I can’t even fathom the depravity of a nation or a person that wants to see such a thing. That it’s part of a societies “justice” system, makes me wonder about that society. Not a good one. A very sick one. 😔 #auspol

In the horror of a Genocide this is a moment of hope. 15 of the children from the Gaza Nipper’s program got back in the surf this week. 30 of the other nippers can’t be found, many have been killed. How has the world made the decision to send so many bombs and so few lifesavers?

The main consequence of password complexity I think is that you end up relying on letting your browser retain them. Which isn’t great. I have about 50 different passwords for various sites I use at work, let alone my personal ones

No condemnation from Labor's leadership on this horrific public execution spectacle; the daily corruption or anything Trump's government is doing. The Greens are the only party showing moral clarity and bravery on the issues that demand it.

One in six kids in poverty.
Increasing housing stress.
Fossil-fueled climate policy.
Our closest alliance with the fascist US.
Enabling the #GazaGenocide.
Policy written by corporate donors.

If this is what the “centre” delivers, “sensible” it is not. #auspol

🚨 ANALYSIS: Trump eased sanctions on Russian diesel weeks before the midterms, despite analysts doubting the deal will meaningfully lower prices. Zelenskyy accuses Trump of using Ukraine’s peace talks as a “smokescreen” for his Putin deal. The full story is worse than you think.

Photograph taken at pre-COP talks at Tuvalu. Indoors in a meeting space.

Australian PM Anthony Albanese (left) and Australian Energy Minister Chris Bowen (middle) seated and listening as 13-year-old Melelusi Sokotia (right, standing) speaks while holding her right hand over her heart
Bowen listens with sombre concentration.
Albanese listens with narrowed eyes, creased brow and downturned mouth (To me his expression seems angry and resentful) Screenshot of a post from Australian Prime Miniser Anthony Albanese 

Text reads:
"Always good to catch up with Donald J. Trump. We spoke tonight on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly."

On the left of Albo's selfie, Donald Trump grins at the camera
On the right, Albo grins at the camera, his face partially shadowed by Trump's head

What are these data centres really for, who is paying for them, who profits, who is accountable, and what happens when the systems inside them cause harm?
