@Not_the_Bee In his defence, he probably meant to say “re-educated.”

@DrewPavlou So you want the government to build infrastructure in direct competition against private airlines’ most profitable routes AND crush communism?

This is how I would save Australia: - Crush communists and Islamists, Lee Kuan Yew style crackdown on crime, social decay. - Completely redesign NDIS, save $30 billion a year. Use savings to: - Build 150 subway stations across the five major Australian cities. Bring the Paris/London/NYC metro to Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane. - Build high speed rail down entire eastern seaboard. Brisbane to the Gold Coast in 15 minutes. Sydney to Melbourne in 1.5 hours. - Build 50 nuclear power plants like France - decarbonise our entire energy grid while making ourselves completely self sufficient in energy for the next 100 years. - Drastically lower migration, redefine national identity to emphasise that we are a Western country. Per capita GDP $130,000. Significantly cheaper energy, housing and transport. Decarbonised electricity grid and way less travel emissions but we refuse deindustrialiation and we refuse far-left efforts to dissolve the nation.

@GrayConnolly @dyrenfurth Interesting yes, but let down, I think, by positing Hastie as a potential leader. Two months ago, perhaps, but after Covid, the dissident right will not countenance someone who so easily resorted to political expedience, and then responded with petulance when questioned.

Very interesting ⁦@dyrenfurth⁩ column this morning #Auspol

When it comes to the perpetual virginity of Mary, do you agree with the Catholic view or with the view of Protestant reformers Martin Luther, Ulrich Zwingli, and John Wesley?

@johnkonrad @AndrewinH70355 Sure it's a low bar, but at least the RAN has AEGIS DDGs with VLS, plus MH-60Rs, is getting the MOGAMIs Hunter Class & TLAMs, has a funded plan for 8 SSNs, and the RAAF has P-8As and Tritons. Credit where credit is due, mate.

@AndrewinH70355 Australia’s Navy? Weak and pathetic but 10x better than Canada’s and New Zealand’s combined

So you’re going to arm your sea kayaks? You have: Zero carriers Zero destroyers 3 broken diesel subs 1 that kinda works maybe No navy-owned replenishment ships 2 semi-broken heavy icebreakers, built in 1966 and 1983, to patrol the longest arctic coast on earth Legacy CF-18s F-35s not coming for years, if ever More generals than working tanks 1/3 of your wokefighters are obese The head of your military is a woke English King Your top general cries on TV And you’ve completely pissed off your strongest ally. What exactly is the plan here Mark?

@johnkonrad RCN and RNZN when asked to send a destroyer:

In fairness to her, Australia is rationing diesel too & doesn’t have a single spare destroyer to send to the Persian Gulf. Worse, all the King’s navies combined, UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, can only field about 3 ready destroyers at any given time. China has 40+.

NEW 'LORD OF THE RINGS' MOVIE Stephen Colbert is co-writing "The Lord of the Rings: Shadow of the Past" (working title), which will go into production after "The Hunt for Gollum." The synopsis: "Fourteen years after the passing of Frodo - Sam, Merry, and Pippin set out to retrace the first steps of their adventure. Meanwhile, Sam’s daughter, Elanor, has discovered a long-buried secret and is determined to uncover why the War of the Ring was very nearly lost before it even began." Colbert is co-writing the script with his son, Peter McGee, and franchise veteran Philippa Boyens. variety.com/2026/film/news…

@dr_owenanderson @lsanger The Simpsons episode is also cursed. That's bad.

@lsanger The Simpsons version is way scarier

This is pretty impressive work for AI, although, clearly, it's the human-AI tandem that is to be credited. A photographer can be distinguished for making good use of a mechanical device. Why not an AI video editor?

@Breaking911 First drone = kosher. Second drone = war crime.

DRAMATIC FOOTAGE: Watch the moment a Ukrainian FPV drone takes out a Russian Ka-52 helicopter.

@YouSpooneeBard Nopity nope nope. All four “friends“ hated the cellist. They wished him dead in their hearts. In fact they couldn’t attend because they were actually dead, but the cellist brought the body of the fourth friend to the concert hall and gave him new life.

The fourth friend knew he didn’t do anything to earn the ticket, but he was the only one who did what was necessary to attend the performance.

🧵The parable of the Tickets: A world-class cellist had four friends. “Here are four tickets to my upcoming performance. I’d love for you to come.” The cellist gave each of his friends one ticket.

@klecu @YouSpooneeBard Better yet, he was dead. The cellist literally died that he might live.

@YouSpooneeBard A better image would be that the fourth friend is mentally and physically disabled but the cellist came to his house, bathed him, dressed him, and put him in his own limo to the concert.

This guy is absolutely out of his mind. He might be the real life Spider-Man.

@YourCalvinist Call me cynical, but I suspect that he's not checking whether his members are actually cheating on their taxes.

@mahonj @rospigge60559 Hedgehog was great when you were relying on your own sonar for the attack solution (the cone of silence under ships added to inaccuracies for depth charge attacks). A vectored attack from a helicopter with a dipping sonar solves both problems.

@rospigge60559 Depth charges are so 1940 and were almost useless, but they made people feel better. The hedgehog front firing spigot mortar was way better (10x better) (from about 1942-3 on) And how can you operate Sonar tearing around in a boat like that.

If you want to hunt submarines in the Baltic… speed matters. shallow draft matters. local knowledge matters. Enter the Swedish CB90.

@NickJFreitas Not to mention those coming out of a semicolon.

This would come as an absolute shock to anyone who just woke out of a 20 year comma.

As a Bishop, I cannot stay silent. I have today drafted and sent an open letter to His Majesty King Charles III, the text of which reads as follows: To: His Majesty, Charles III, King of the United Kingdom and the Realms, Supreme Governor of the Church of England, Bearer of the ancient title Defender of the Faith. Your Majesty, I write to you neither as a politician nor as a commentator, but as one of your loyal subjects who, as a bishop of Christ’s Church, cannot remain silent while the Christian foundations of this kingdom are steadily dismantled. Sir, there are moments in the life of a nation when silence becomes a form of betrayal. If I refused to speak to Your Majesty now, this would be such a moment. For more than a thousand years the Crown of this realm has stood in solemn covenant with the Christian faith. The laws of this land were shaped by it. The liberties of our people were nurtured by it. The conscience of our civilisation was formed by it. From the abbeys of medieval England to the parish churches of our villages, from the preaching of the Reformers to the missionary zeal that carried the Gospel to the ends of the earth, the Christian faith has not merely influenced Britain — it has defined her. Yet today that inheritance is being quietly but deliberately eroded. Across the institutions of this nation there is a growing hostility toward the faith that built them. Christian belief is mocked in the public square. Christian morality is dismissed as intolerance. Christian institutions are pressured to surrender doctrine in order to conform to the ideology of the age. Within the very Church that bears the name of England, voices have arisen that appear more eager to mirror the spirit of the age than to proclaim the eternal truth of the Gospel. Meanwhile, beyond the walls of our churches, powerful political movements openly speak of removing Christianity from its historic place within the life of this nation. What would once have been whispered is now proclaimed openly: that Britain must become a post-Christian state. It is in this context that I write to you, Your Majesty. For the British Crown does not stand apart from this crisis. The Sovereign of this realm bears a title that is not merely historic but sacred in its origin and meaning: Defender of the Faith. Those words are not decorative. They are a charge. They speak of a monarch whose duty is not merely to preside over the ceremonies of the Church, but to stand as a guardian of the Christian inheritance of the nation. Yet many among your subjects now ask, with increasing anxiety: “Who will defend that inheritance today?” They see a nation drifting from its foundations. And they ask whether the Crown will remain silent while that inheritance is dismantled. Your Majesty, may I be so bold as to observe that your coronation oath was not a poetic formality. It was a solemn vow made before Almighty God to maintain and preserve the Protestant Reformed Religion established by law. Those words bind the conscience of the sovereign. They remind the Crown that its authority is not merely constitutional but moral. The monarch is not merely a symbol of national continuity, but a custodian of the spiritual inheritance that shaped this realm. History records moments when kings and emperors were confronted by the Church and reminded that their authority was accountable before God. In the fourth century Ambrose of Milan stood before the Emperor Theodosius I and reminded him that even the ruler of an empire must bow before the moral law of Christ. That tradition of prophetic witness has never disappeared. Nor should it. For when rulers forget the foundations upon which their authority rests, the Church must speak — not with hostility, but with holy clarity. And so, I write to say this, Your Majesty: The Christian character of this nation is under profound and accelerating assault. If the Crown does not stand visibly and courageously in defence of that inheritance, history will record that the guardians of Britain’s institutions watched in silence as the foundations were removed. The issue before us is not nostalgia. It is civilisation. Remove Christianity from the story of Britain and you do not create a neutral society — you create a moral vacuum. And history teaches us that moral vacuums are never left empty for long. Your Majesty now stands at a crossroads that few monarchs in modern history have faced. For the erosion of Britain’s Christian inheritance will not ultimately be judged by speeches made in Parliament or debates in the press. It will be judged by whether those entrusted with the guardianship of our ancient institutions chose to defend them — or merely preside over their quiet surrender. You may preside over the quiet dissolution of Britain’s Christian identity. Or you may rise to the ancient responsibility entrusted to the Crown and speak with clarity about the faith that built this kingdom. The first path requires little courage. The second will require a great deal. But it is the path that history honours. Your Majesty’s subjects are not asking for religious coercion. They are asking for leadership. They are asking that the sovereign who bears the title Defender of the Faith remember what that title means. They are asking that the Crown hear the growing cry of anguish from Christians across this land who feel that the spiritual inheritance of their nation is being surrendered without resistance. And they are asking whether the Crown will stand with them. For the faith that shaped Britain is not merely a cultural ornament. It is the wellspring from which our laws, our liberties, and our moral imagination have flowed. If it is cast aside, the nation will discover — too late — that it has severed itself from the very roots that sustained it. Your Majesty, to many the Crown is a symbol of authority. But before God it is also a symbol of stewardship. And stewardship carries with it the duty to defend what has been entrusted. May Almighty God grant Your Majesty the wisdom to discern this hour, and the courage to fulfil the sacred duty entrusted to the Crown. Yours faithfully, Bishop Ceirion H.
