Albanese: "The fact that in 2025 you have someone running for prime minister who can’t say that the science is clear that climate change is real and it is happening … I don’t know what it takes to give a wake-up call to the Coalition."

Greenhouse gases show no sign of a downward trend. The action to date has been weak & inadequate.

We all slow with age. I'm getting very, very slow . . . .

This should be an interesting lecture, FREE to anyone in the general public who is curious about the Universe around them.

Electrical Storm. Sydney. 6th Jan 2025.

Capturing shots of ground strikes, looking towards NW Sydney about 50km away.

Then suddenly:

FLASH- CRACK-BOOM

Right in front of me, this slammer struck only about five kilometres away!

The original post highlighted the danger of parcels left on steps, an obvious trip hazard.
Sendle asked for the order reference to investigate further but this issue reflects broader concerns about safe delivery practices.

[Roger Powell @Ggreybeard]

I'm noticing an increasing tendency for parcel deliveries to be left on our steps. Couriers please instruct your drivers be more thoughtful about this danger.
Thanks. @sendle

Hi @sendle
I am sorry if you did not understand my post. All I am asking is that you instruct your delivery drivers not to leave parcels on steps, where they can be the cause of a very nasty accident. Thank you.

Democracy rewards insurrection with unfettered political power.

Divisive politics & ugly personal insults are worshipped leadership qualities.

Sexual & fraud convictions admired by voters.

Women who make health decisions about their own bodies are criminalised.

WTF America?

[Roger Powell @Ggreybeard]

Another reminder that greenhouse gas emissions are still out of control.

Dunno about the "three inch" bit - but I like the "shut down their last coal plant today" bit, which seems to be true.

Tottenham went to Old Trafford and an Ange Postecoglou masterclass saw them leave with all three points 🛫

Spurs are now four wins on the trot in all competitions!

It's the feature match of the round thanks to @HungryJacksAU.

[David Guthrie @Shindig53]

And so with Man City losing their 100% record - the 11-game perfect start record set by the 1960/61 Double-winning Tottenham Hotspur side stands for a 64th year.

Did you know, we’ve only found one asteroid that orbits the Sun entirely inside the orbit of Venus? (594913) ꞌAylóꞌchaxnim was discovered by the Zwicky Transient Facility at Palomar Observatory on 4 January 2020 and is roughly 2 km wide.
