Editorial: Jon Kudelka was a scientist and that method was in his cartooning. His horror at the world was a horror at the abandonment of facts and reason. Years working for a right-wing newspaper had made his jokes subtle and a little sly. https://t.co/MEKsClmuhq
“Please don’t feel for a minute that we don't have power. Please don't think for a minute we can’t drive change. That is exactly what they want people to think.” – Dr Richard Denniss, co-CEO of The Australia Institute

Kudos and respect to Paul Keating , the only living PM who refused to accept an AC because he believed that honours should be reserved for those whose work in the community went unrecognised and that being PM was significant public recognition. Definitely not a cosplay PM.
@Mollyploofkins@broomstick33 Watch as Harvard steps up to establish off shore campuses- Canada, EU, etc and the funds will flow with them. So many British and Australian universities have done this to reach student demand.
Been overwhelmed by all the love I’ve received here, on the streets, in supermarkets & wherever I’ve gone this past week. This was my acceptance speech & it was all about my gratitude to Australia but of course had cricket mentions & my take on what it means to be Australian
NEW: Purdue students demolish the Guinness World Record for fastest Rubik’s cube-solving robot, solving the puzzle cube in just 0.103 seconds, faster than the blink of an eye.
Insane.
The previous record was set by Mitsubishi Electric engineers in 2024 in Japan with a speed of 0.305 seconds.
The team says they can probably go even faster, but the cube is the holdup, considering it will "disintegrate" if they go faster.
They say they had to reconstruct the cube with stronger pieces so it could handle the machine.
@tezzig1961@RIGPIG888@6NewsAU The same way a 40 or 55 yro does.
Seek preselection when vacancies arise in the party ticket about 6 months before election is called. Lobby state party branch preselection committee members. And await outcome of preselection rankings. She was 3rd on ticket so wasn’t expected.
@strangerous10@netsurfau Will there be any public analysis of the Advance and ‘Better Australia’ campaigns? Where they impacted most? Who funded ? And whether they will regroup/ reenergise on similar campaigns?
On ABC #RadioNational, the final Mingle with Tingle is outstanding. Host David Marr is conducting a lovely, lengthy convo with @latingle about her long career in journalism for her final episode of #LateNightLive. It is superb. 📻 😊 #LNL#auspol#journalism
@john_macgowan @1micky_v @KosSamaras Those polls had high levels of uncertain voters.
Also polls that indicate who would have been PM in any particular week that is not sampled whilst in the middle of a election campaign are meaningless. Campaigns are fundraised intensively for a reason.
@silentanb Just lying here in bed with Covid.. cold symptoms 2 days ago, just tested on spec (I haven’t been sick for 2 yrs I think)
… kapow. (Gadigal land, haven’t been travelling)
@Maggie_Perry6 This is really clear thank you! My only v minor suggestion would be to find a way indicate in the header row which candidates have been excluded, as it’s hard to read/find the strike thru cells.
