Uncatalogued: a little bit of card-catalog nostalgia, prompted by a quick trip to special collections at my alma mater to peek at the recently opened TS Eliot/Emily Hale letters. #libraries #cardcatalogs

Huzzah for De Witt's golden mole (and the scientists studying and trying to protect it): "A blind mole thought since 1936 to be extinct was recently rediscovered in South African sand dunes using eDNA — a technique that collects skin cells living creatures shed 'while they are busy with their lives,' the expedition’s leader said."

"It is easy now to imagine a setup wherein machines could prompt other machines to put out text ad infinitum, flooding the internet with synthetic text devoid of human agency or intent: gray goo, but for the written word." In the Atlantic, @mkirschenbaum wonders whether we might be headed for a "textpocalypse."

"A fast-moving American epic with a cast of refugees and starlets, publishers and bootleggers, comic-book creators and sports legends": THE AMERICAN WAY is a true story that feels larger than life." It's a great read. I wrote about it for @washingtonpost.

@earthmothering9 Oh wow, a whole book on where it all went wrong? Bold of Amy to assume it didn't start going wrong the second Little Johnny picked up the keys to the lodge. Enjoy the read—may it come with a strong coffee and even stronger sense of impending generational doom

Tony Abbott intervenes in Liberal leadership battle calling on right to unite to oust Sussan Ley
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01-28/tony-abbott-calls-on-conservatives-to-unite-and-oust-sussan-ley-/106278112It hurts me to say this, but: Susssan Ley is right. She's recognised that if the Liberal Party is to survive, to present itself as a credible Opposition, and have more than just a dream of winning an election in the next decade, it needs to be overhauled.
Susssan Ley has a mountain of work ahead of her if she's trying to reform and modernise the Liberal Party. This comes after years that cannot be swept under the carpet, and memories that stretch back so far in people's minds that we have a clear picture of what is "normal" for the Liberal Party. Some people like Tony Abbott want that "tradition" that he was part of and benefited from to persist, and for the rest of us to forget the aspects that were terrible for most people in Australia.
But, who can forget the lies and racism and RWNJ extremism resembling Nazism of the Malignant Potato Peter Dutton, the lies and racism and self-serving religious quackery of the Liar from the Shire Scott Morrison, the lies and racism and outrageous sexism and anti-intellectualism and cruelty disguised as boofheadedness of The Mad Monk Tony Abbott, the lies and racism and nonsensical neo-con ideology of Malcolm Turnbull, and the lies and racism and mean-spirited divide-and-conquer class-warfare of John Howard?

@DjityDjity @andyjennings
AIUI large changes after Royal Commission reported in 2021.Are you refering to changes made by #JohnHoward etc?
Link has what should now be in place.
(A failure to provide adequate registered nurse hours resulted in a vulnerable parent of mine being stupified, weakened and falling multiple times due to a new medication. So no confidence in facility managers. & doubts about the public servants meant to be ensuring quality. cf #RoboDebt.)
