Steven Moffat is now the best ambassador for Doctor Who since he doesn't have to worry about running the show anymore (and he's hilarious).

Okay, I need to be quiet because I’m just outside his office. You can probably hear him through the door right now. He’s selling sketchy supplemental health insurance plans to senior citizens by phone using his talking buttons. It’s insane.
Here, walk with me because he’s demanding a double Puppychino latte. He insists I make it at home because he hates the waste of nonreusable cups. “HOME (pause) MADE, (pause) HOME (pause) PUPPY (pause) AIR MILK (pause) MOM,” he ordered with his buttons.

Real estate developers are running a dark-money campaign to overturn new housing rules — and ignore basic laws of nature.
Benjamin Kingsmore Central banks do a lot of things: they implement monetary policy, regulate financial institutions, manage payment systems and analyse economic developments. Many of their tasks are crucial to the functioning of a modern economy. And to make all this happen in practice, armies of unseen officials do the necessary implementing, regulating, managing and … Continue reading Central banks, big and small

February 7th, 2025: Hello everyone and welcome Two organisations representing Arab migrants in Australia have slammed ABC managing director David Anderson over his refusal to acknowledge the existence of a Lebanese race during the ongoing Federal Court trial between broadcaster Antoinette Lattouf and the national broadcaster. The Australian Lebanese Association said on Friday Anderson’s statement was “deeply disappointing” and harmed social cohesion. Continue reading »
Fresh off the back of Donald Trump’s latest attacks on gender affirming care, the anti-trans right in Australia is on the offensive. The post Labor fails to stand up to Queensland’s attack on trans rights: fight to overturn the ban first appeared on Solidarity Online. It’s not the first time the Trump administration has imposed sanctions against the International Criminal Court (ICC). Independent journalist Richard Medhurst has been detained by Austrian police and intelligence services. The late John Pilger reminds us what Julian Assange uncovered about media, while Juice Media pulls the rug from under Dutton’s nuclear plans. Another week Continue reading »
It is with a heavy heart that we admit Spines for Senators (S4S) has failed in its mission to provide invertebrate lawmakers with the transformational surgeries they so desperately need. To be blunt, we weren’t fully prepared for the challenges presented by these feckless losers. We thought some of them (one of them?) wanted to be better. How wrong we were. They voted unanimously to install Marco Rubio (one of our organization’s many lost causes) as secretary of state. They passed the Laken Riley Act. Amy Klobuchar is still—still!—talking about finding common ground and working together with the party that plunged our country into a constitutional crisis. The Dems are getting focused: Armed with new polling showing Musk’s popularity in the toilet, key Democratic leaders are going after the top adviser to President Donald Trump who is dismantling the federal government. They are attempting to subpoena him and introducing legislation to block him from receiving federal contracts while he holds a “special” role leading Trump’s cost-cutting crusade… “If you oppose Donald Trump, making Elon Musk the face of his administration is the smart way to go,” said Democratic pollster Geoff Garin. “Where the rubber really hits the road on all of this is for people who are inclined to be supportive of Donald Trump and they, for whatever reason, think Donald Trump is on their side. But many of them have a different view of Elon Musk.” […] New internal polling, conducted on behalf of House Majority Forward, a nonprofit aligned with House Democratic leadership, found Musk is viewed negatively among 1,000 registered voters in battleground districts. Just 43 percent approve of him and 51 percent view him unfavorably.
Trump has repeatedly said that he wants to move Palestinians out of Gaza and that there are about 1.7 to 1.8 million people to move. The pre-war population of Gaza was 2.3 million. About 100,000 Gazans managed to flee to the Sinai in Egypt (presumably a combination of bribes and sympathetic border guards who disagree with Sisi’s “let them die” policy. So we’re looking at 400,000 to 500,000 deaths if Trumps figures are accurate. Yes, I know, Trump: but he’s been briefed and why use those numbers?

And it comes down by millions and millions of barrels a day and uh, I opened it up. It wasn’t that easy to do. But I opened it up and it’s pouring down.” It’s actually raining right now so I guess he’s turned the valve on and pointed it up at the sky? Where are the farmers whose water has been wasted and which they’ll need next summer? Well… Agriculture is a form of legalized gambling here in California, our land is prone to deluge or drought. Our farmers, relentlessly adapting, are as innovative as any set of suits in Silicon Valley, learning new ways to grow more food with less water.
