  1. RE: aus.social/@eddyjokovich/11659

    There is a lot of legislative work to be done if govt(s) are going to do something about putting Australia on better footings to cope with what is coming down the line. And #Madhats (#LNP #Nats #PHON) aren’t ever going to do anything about it. Our meak and timid #Labor govt(s) are too caught up in the #Newscycle to roll up their collective sleeves and get to work (time is running out, that much is obvious) and that leaves a #CluelessElectorate , too #UnderThePump to see their way clear to send the only electoral message that ought to matter to all Australians, that is to vote for the #Greens next time around. Because only the Greens will act out of #Ideology (the good and prgressive kind for the greater good) and not #ElectoralSelfInterests (a nice way of saying #Corruption and #StateTheft #NeoLiberalism )

  3. How January 2026 Already Feels Like a Whole Year

    January 2026 has felt like a year within itself. We’re only a few weeks into the month, and yet it feels as if the weight of time has condensed, making every day feel like a chapter in a longer saga. It’s not the typical feeling of a new year’s freshness or the usual optimism that comes with turning the page on a calendar. Instead, there’s something different about this January — something that feels stretched, intense, and heavy. In a way, it’s as if time itself has slowed, […]

  6. A quotation from Rogers, Will:

    «
    That’s the characteristic of our country. We can get all lathering at the time over some political campaign promise, or some conference pledge, but if the thing just drags along long enough we forget what it was that originally promised. The short memories of the American voters is what keeps our politicians in office.

  7. 👀 Per a comment at HuffPo:

    “Even after all of these years we want to treat Trump like a politician. He's not. His only goal is to control the news cycle. He's a propagandist. He uses communication as a weapon of control. His tricks are easily understood and easy to track and explain. “

  9. Between the European Football finals (semi finals?) and the inevitable News Cycle tomorrow, might just try to stay offline as much as possible 😮‍💨😒

  10. Things I've learned since I ditched the #birdsite for good:

    We don't need to know everything about everywhere all of the time! It's OK to fall behind on local and world news; to catch up at weekends, or to abandon the #newscycle altogether!

    We shouldn't feel annoyed with ourselves when a friend updates us on something we hadn't yet heard ourselves. Conversations feel so much more natural when those taking part haven't already heard absolutely everything there is to hear about already!

  13. @samuraikid
    The mistake some make is they only watch #theNews, "just so I can talk to other people about it."

    WHAT OTHER PEOPLE?

    They open themselves up to be #indoctrinated daily with #mythicalNarratives, while rejecting #alternateSources, all for some mythical person they'll somehow impress at work, because they can regurgitate a few 3-word-slogans. Will she be so impressed she'll leave the husband, drown his kids, have your baby?

    This carnal, bloodlust, meat-brain #newsCycle *is* a virus.
