This would be my favourite #SiloArt installation in the 12 years we have been travelling. Karoonda, South Australia. (Misspent youth on a sheep property in the far west of NSW in the 60's) At night there is a projection displayed on the "blank canvas" section of the silos (not shown here). Different imagery at different times. If I can get a worthwhile picture with my phone I will post it. #Travel #Art #Australia #SouthAustralia #DogsOfMastodon #Sheep

This is both excellent writing and, sadly, accurate. > I have been practicing medicine for four decades. Cancer is my vocabulary, not his. And I know what happened the last time a government borrowed it. The Nazi state’s central perversion was the medicalization of killing: the enemy as tumor, as bacillus, the nation as patient, extermination as cure.Robert Jay Lifton called it the biomedical vision. It recruited my profession first, and my profession answered willingly. When a government de...

@georgetakei@universeodon.com > Hegseth has been obsessed with ushering in a new era in the Pentagon committed to what he has described as the "warrior ethos." What he's demonstrated instead is that he's as weird as the rest of the administration. Hear here! Just another weird sycophant for whom the rules don't apply. Not even those rules they made up themselves.

One Nation supporters charge full-tilt down the Trumpian road of bullshit and blatherskite. A fake post is doing the rounds claiming a government minister called One Nation voters "stupid" and said they likely went to public school. #AusPol #PHON #Labor https://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/fake-online-post-government-minister-insulting-one-nation-voters/mk1bi06wp

Guess where we were today? 😁 Finally! Missed my first chance when the school excursion came here back in 1974 (no money), and it's taken me this long to make it up. Patience is a virtue. #Travel #Australia #NorthernTerritory

Hello, #Sunset Sunset yesterday. While my wife was talking to her father on the phone, I happened to glance at the sunset. Next thing she knows, I&#39;ve pinched her camera and shinned up onto the roof of the motorhome. Sent from her gear to my tablet via mobile, so lousy compression etc. 🥲 #Photography #Sunset #Australia

How to stop the popularity of One Nation and reduce the impact Hanson's so-called policies? Look at history. One Nation almost disappeared during the resources boom in Australia. Why? Because people were happy. Now, people are discontented, struggling with everyday living. Reform social support so that it actually supports society and not the wealthy and parties like One Nation, built entirely on hate for the "other", will fade into nothingness again. #Politics #AusPol #Austral...

This is too good not to share. After ten years of silence on YouTube, Bette Midler has released an absolute banger of a protest song, just in time for #NoKingsDay. A rewrite of a Woody Guthrie song, and it hops! https://youtu.be/U5VXwncNvTo #USPol #BetteMidler #NoKingsDay3

RE: https://norden.social/@Aleks_weltweit/116237479399449282 Right-wing bigots lie. Shocking news, I know. This article shows just how deliberate that lying is, designed to carefully tick all of the bigot check-boxes, maximising outrage. The damage they do? What do they care? As long as their agenda is met, that&#39;s all that matters. #AfD #Germany #deutschland #Bigots

How is this not resulting in an immediate referral to The Hague? Outright murder by a national military. There was, and still is, no declared war between the USA and Iran, the Iranian ship was unarmed and defenceless, no succour was offered for survivors, and the action took place in international waters. This action was every bit as bad as the attack on Pearl Harbour. The USA is a rogue, pariah state run by a Congress and Executive who are criminals. #USPol #Iran #India

@randahl@mastodon.social Given both official US hospital ships are laid up for maintenance until July at the earliest, Trump lied when he said it was "on the way". Shocking, I know. The Administration then indicated that a third ship was being sent — from the other side of the USA and NOT an official hospital ship. The amount of gymnastics the sycophants have to do to support Trump's brain farts should make them eligible for the Olympics.

Don't claim credit for that which you voted against, Mace. The internet remembers, even if your Republican voters don't care to. #USPol #Republicans #Biden #Infrastructure
