openvallejo.org/2025/01/27/sus… This would have been a major story for any paper in the country but first to the ball is Vallejo's local news, with very good reporting on the Zizian cult suspected in a cross-country murder spree.

I have a question to the #ME community: How many of you are still here? I barely see any tweets from people I know, and I definitely do not see tweets from #pwME. So have you all left X, or is this Musk's fault? #ME

@MayneReport Eli's Melbourne based and I reckon a sydney subeditor has seen the words "Toorak Rd HQ" and said to themselves, "you can't name check a local road in a national newspaper, I'm changing that". and stuffed it up in the process.

Bizarre business lead in The Oz today on suppliers refusing to come to the “Coles headquarters in the Melbourne suburb of Toorak”. The Coles HQ is at 800 Toorak Rd in Hawthorn East, not Toorak.

Just got done eating wild caught salmon daily for 30 days. This weekend I got my first sunburn in 2 years from a few hours outside on a mild, partly cloudy 61°F day. Also stalled weight loss. Don't eat fish. The disgusting, rotten stench is a warning.

@heritage_why I'm pro-tower. I reckon one reason fitzroy and prahran are cool and north melbourne isn't, is the public housing is denser there than in north melb.

I mainly hate on heritage listings because they get in the way of 1) more housing, 2) higher-density housing, and 3) lower-cost housing. In this case I'm not sure demolish & replace will result in any of those three things... theage.com.au/national/victo…

@abcnews This is how they make recycled mulch: Grinding up old pallets and building material. In a country where 1 in 3 homes contains asbestos, you can see how they'd need to VERY careful to not get asbestos in there. I think we should stop using recycled mulch for a while ...

@realBrookNash if you're a freelance knowledge worker yep. (I'm one) if you need equipment/space and branding/marketing or you actually become a real business then the reply guys are right. Becoming a lawn guy or an electrician and you need cash to set up, there's BIG risk

“Self-employment isn’t inherently riskier than a FT job.” Some people really didn’t like this take. I get some of the points, but not most of them. Curious to hear your thoughts.

@s4me_info @sjmnotes The effort preference task is fatally flawed because you can play it strategically. Healthy volunteer F played it perfectly and got his data excluded from the trial! #mecfs @NIH

I see media concentration arguments around the traps. But the top 5 websites have different owners and the #1 site is owned collectively. Meanwhile Guardian and The New Daily are grinding ever upward.
Dave Earley@earleyedition

I've been a bit slack with these recently… forgot to share Nielsen news website rankings for September when they came out last week. @abcnews holds No1 for 9th consecutive month. @GuardianAus steady at No7. 9news/7news swap 4/5 and TheOz drops out of top10
