When you hear Dutton calling for an audit of Government spending on Indigenous communities he’s counting on two things:

That you don’t know that police & prisons is counted in that spending & Indigenous communities rarely have control over funding they get & how it can be spent.

A reminder that Elsevier made $10.5 BILLION in 2022 from selling your academic journals and articles behind paywalls, and make more profit than Amazon, Google, and Apple every year…

And paid the academics who wrote the articles $0
And paid the reviewers of the articles $0

Why do so many people continue to choose MM as a hill to die on? He was a bad dude who did bad things to First Nations people. He doesn’t deserve to have anything named after him, let alone such a magnificent critter as the Pink Cockatoo. More below👇

I wonder what else we could potentially spend $368 billion on than eight submarines? I just don't get #AUKUS

Not to brag, but I've spelt "Lerista punctatovittata" three times today from memory. Nailed it.

@_erikaroper Might be worth checking out Telstra prepaid, cheaper than a plan - you can roll over your existing number and set up auto-recharge so it's basically a plan anyway. I pay $30 for 10G (and calls, texts etc) which lasts 28 days and rolls over unused data. Access to the whole network

Does anyone else have to frantically check they didn't press SOS when you're carrying an EPIRB in a remote area and you hear a helicopter? It's not even on...

[Kate Senior @KateLSenior]

Back out in the field after a six week forced absence due to catching Covid (do not recommend in the middle of your field season). Taking it easier than usual but enjoying being back out in this stunning wildflower season

[Ella Plumanns Pouton @ellapouton]

Can @UniMelb do better? Be the top of the Go8? ...37,000 from Feb 2023 perhaps? Which would still be a modest $711 a week for full time research workers who's rent/mortgage/cost of living has gone up enormously in the last year !
