@AlboMP Didn’t you get rushed off because even they don’t want you around?

Eid Mubarak. An honour join thousands for Eid al-Fitr at Lakemba Mosque this morning.

@woke8yearold I’m older gen X. I hate it, and am starting to despise the US.

The age gap on this war is really something. Millennials and Gen Z hate it. Completely. Boomers and their evil henchmen Gen X love it because they are fucked in the head

@realpeteyb123 @Viennathec47290 Riiight. So it’s not about the chaos Trump and MAGA have plunged the world into, it’s personal butthurt. Gotcha

@Viennathec47290 They rescinded my invite.

Think the time has come for me to walk away from MAGA and the Republican Party. I’ll share more soon. I’m done.

@MotchmanJ Oh gosh, it must be nice to be wealthy enough to afford the upfront cost of those things

What a day 36kwh of lovely clean 🌞 renewables House batteries full water is hot 210l at 45c Nissan leaf battery at 80% Tesla is at 60% None of my energy is stuck in the middle east being bombed. More renewables 🌞 and less fossil 💩

@godlywomanhood They’re not meant to be elegant, ffs.

Leggings are NOT modest or elegant in any way.

Modesty can be extremely elegant. Immodesty never can. This culture has lost its elegance.

@benjnz @van00sa Imagine if we had a proper stockpile of crude AND refining capacity to meet local demand?

@van00sa It would be the same position. You need crude oil to refine to make petrol. It’s crude oil that is being held up. Unless your drilling it and sending it to your refinery then your still reliant on it coming from the gulf!

Imagine our position if Australia had its own refineries

@KatieGrace2022 100%. Aren’t we already paying someone, who has a large staff, to do this shit? Why do we keep paying these mouthpiece parasites?

Hang on - we have a whole Government and an Energy Minister all paid for by our taxes, all voted in to do their job. So why are they appointing bureaucrats to do what we pay them to do … THEIR JOB? What’s the point of a Government, a Department or a Minister if you hand over your job to a bureaucrat…?🤷‍♀️

@platypusWarby @SamaHoole Are you retarded? You think we’re growing crops out here?

@SamaHoole I’ve lived in Australia for 55 years and traveled most of it. Not one thing you said is true. Maybe try using Google next time

Australia is the world's largest beef exporter. People who find this uncomfortable sometimes suggest that Australia should redirect this toward plant agriculture and feed itself more ethically. Have they looked at a map of Australia? Not the bit with the cities. Not the coastline. The bit in the middle. The part that constitutes 95% of the agricultural land. It looks like the Outback at 40 degrees in October, where the annual rainfall in good years is 250mm and the soil has never had topsoil in recorded geological history. It looks like the Mitchell grass downs of Queensland, where the black cracking clays grow native perennial grasses that have evolved specifically to be eaten by ruminants and cannot support cropping without irrigation that doesn't exist. It looks like the Northern Territory station country, where a single cattle station might be larger than England and the nearest agronomist is six hours away by plane. You cannot grow quinoa in the Northern Territory. You cannot grow wheat in the Pilbara. You can run cattle on both, because cattle evolved to convert the inedible into the edible, which is the precise function being asked of them. The people saying Australia should eat less beef have not been to the places the beef comes from. They've been to Melbourne. Melbourne is lovely. It is not where the food grows.

@usuallypregnant No, having kids in my 30’s was definitely not a mistake. Why would it be?

Is waiting until your 30s a mistake?

@WillKingston It’s not a cocktail party, you pelican.

Anyone who didn’t laugh at Trump’s Pearl Harbor joke would make a terrible cocktail party guest.

@mickitiki Oh. Did that ‘shit’ include throwing the world into complete chaos?

Exactly 💥🔥🇺🇸👊

@alpha4th @SteveOnSpeed Right. I guess you think anorexics just need to get over it and eat more too.

@Stone2541 @SteveOnSpeed Oh please. Not everything has to be psychoanalyzed. They just love food and love eating and they don’t have the will to regulate themselves. That’s pretty much it.

Legit curious. On a cruise. Saw a woman who was probably 500 pounds, easy. Insanely fat. Needed a scooter to get around. Has 6 plates of food in front of her. Do these folks just,..not care that they are morbidly obese?

If they’re serving food, they should be allergen trained. If this is true, it’s pathetic. As a chef, I deal with life threatening dietary requirements all the time. If you understand proper protocol, it’s easily manageable. Her request is not unreasonable, this is more than ‘my yoga instructor said I’m allergic to gluten and therefore I need you to bend over backwards for me’ it’s a life threatening allergy that is not ideal anytime, let alone mid flight. Yes the airline has a responsibility to ensure a passenger is not exposed. And the response leads me to believe that these staff are not trained, not aware, and the airline has no protocol for dealing with situations like this.

THIS IS WILD… Passenger says United denied a simple request that could literally save their life. Severe peanut allergy. One exposure = possible fatal reaction. All they asked for? A small buffer zone on the plane. Instead… they were told to basically deal with it and “email the company.” On a packed flight where people are eating inches away… That’s not a minor issue. That’s life or death. Do airlines have a responsibility here… or is this asking too much? ⬇️ 🇺🇸

@jonbrooks Mind you business?

My friends in their 30s are deciding not to have kids They’re saying two things: They don’t have the money It’s inconvenient to their lifestyle This is not good. What do we do?

@alpha4th @SteveOnSpeed Don’t be a simpleton. It’s a psychological disorder, manifesting in a disordered relationship with food.

@Stone2541 @SteveOnSpeed Stop eating food…

@7NewsAustralia Why would Iran want to do that? It’s the most effective leverage they have.

World leaders, including Australia, are set to call on Iran to immediately stop blocking the Strait of Hormuz which is leading to petrol shortages and soaring prices around the globe. An emergency session of the International Maritime Council was ordered on Wednesday where global leaders are expected to condemn Iran’s attacks on seafarers and merchant vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20 per cent of the world’s oil is shipped. #straitofhormuz #iran #maritime #shippinglane #middleeast

@JEChalmers Gosh, if only successive governments had seen why retaining refining ability and actually having an onshore stockpile is important? Imagine that.

We're not immune from global instability but we’re confronting these challenges from a position of genuine relative economic strength - with faster growth, stronger jobs growth and lower debt than every major advanced economy.

@MrRexPatrick Don’t be silly, we’ll just keep practically giving it away

Japan, South Korea and Singapore are heavily reliant on Australian LNG (and even more so noting Qatar’s LNG is now unavailable). Australia is heavily reliant on Japanese, South Korean and Singaporean refined fuel. I hope our diplomats are thinking what I’m thinking. #auspol

@ThrillaRilla369 Yes

Be honest... could you jump into a stick-shift car and drive it without a problem right now? 🚘
