@PhillipAdams_1 Where will you write about what happened? Sub-stack?

No Adans column in tomorrow’s Australian. The Murdochs and I have finally parted company.

@JasonBirch0916 The article is good but the headline is a beat up. The author hasn't given up on Australia. Irresponsible editing from The Age.

@BloombergTV This entails a blockade of Mexico, as Australians can't travel there without transiting via the US.

The US is proposing that foreign visitors provide their social media history over the last five years to enter the country, including those from Australia, Germany, Japan and the UK who can now enter without a visa bloom.bg/3KVAQTH

@taipan168 Airlines need to get serious about alternative routes to Canada and Mexico that don't transit in the US.

It isn't just social media handles that the US will require for an ESTA application. It's also all of this other stuff. Get absolutely f$*ked. theaustralian.com.au/business/aviat…

@AlboMP @JonHaidt I'm so proud of my country. This problem requires collective action. The next generation of Australians will have a world-bearing advantage in mental capacity.

Protecting kids. Backing parents. Our social media ban for under-16s starts today.

Video has killed social media.

@Noahpinion China's collective capacity is the apocalypse imagined by Pluribus. Actually, I'd prefer it to obnoxious Carol.

In just a few years, China has created a whole new way to do technological innovation. They've vertically integrated the entire research pipeline, and coordinated every actor in society behind the effort. noahpinion.blog/p/china-has-in…

@Dr_M_Davis "Q: Do you personally support or oppose the adoption of nuclear-powered submarines by Australia?" is not a direct index of support for AUKUS. Why the push-polling? theage.com.au/politics/feder…

This is very dissapointing indeed. These sorts of dialogues between Australian and US defence officials are important in the policy formulation process, and particularly vital given the growing danger from an aggressive #China. ‘Not woke stuff’: Trump administration bars US officials from Australia defence talks smh.com.au/politics/feder…

@BernardKeane Marles is the new Dutton.

All these macho advocates for higher defence spending NEVER say how they'd fund it -- or where they'll find the huge number of extra workers it would require crikey.com.au/2025/06/03/aus…

@gingerandhoney Great article. Also: garlandmag.com/article/loom-r…

When RMIT decided to junk a rare, $160k weaving loom, a group of artists, teachers and students united to rescue it. The story of this loom felt like a snapshot of everything that’s wrong with how we treat arts and crafts in tertiary ed, so I wrote this theguardian.com/australia-news…

I have read Musa Al-Gharbi's "We Have Never Been Woke." It makes me ask, what is it that we symbolic capitalists are good for? youtube.com/watch?v=VPuTtK…

@kluikens @kepano @obsdmd Quick capture in Android too would be super useful.

@kepano @obsdmd quick capture on mobile devices. i’d like to use the iPhone’s action button to capture brief voice notes throughout the day in fleeting moments, have them be auto-appended to daily note, leaving me to review and edit them at the end of the day. it’s cumbersome as-is.

what's one improvement you'd like to see in @obsdmd in 2025?

@ahmerirfan I look forward to more of your writing, Irfan.

You'll find me yonder: bsky.app/profile/kmaust…

@hamdahsalhut That's terrible, did she die?

GAZA: Palestinian journalist Salma Kaddoumi was shot by Israeli forces while working in Khan Younis. At least 40,099 Palestinians have been killed, and 92,609 others injured since the beginning of the war.
