Have you ever, ever felt like this? #OnThisDay (1990-04-06) the #Australian #televsion series Round the Twist premiered.
The first series was loosely based on the books of Paul Jennings telling the story of a widowed sculptor and his three children, with the first episode being Skeleton on the Dunny.
ADA in #Satisfactory has been given #Australian subtitles during the landing sequence during the start of a game. Does this only happen for Australian players?

It makes perfect sense.
Democrats want to become Maga-lite.
This is what happened to #Australian Labor party, they adopted many policies of the right (like torture of refugees) and coalmines. As a consequence they don't appeal to the left or right anymore.
A #Australian Senate committee has recommended the government & telecommunications industry accelerate the rollout of mobile phone services via the #Starlink network.
Musk famously secretly ordered #SpaceX engineers to switch off the Starlink satellite communications network near the coast of occupied #Crimea in order to thwart a #Ukrainian surprise attack on #Russia ‘s naval fleet, according to a report.

"One in five #Australian adults hold strong anti-Semitic beliefs, according to a surprising new poll."
"A survey carried out by the Anti-Defamation League found that 46 per cent of the world's adult population – an estimated 2.2 billion people – harbour 'deeply-entrenched anti-Semitic attitudes' – double the number a decade ago."

“A parliamentary committee examining the impact of #SocialMedia on #Australian society has recommended users be given the power to alter, reset or turn off #algorithms, as well as be provided with greater #privacy protections but has stopped short of recommending a #ban on under-16s accessing social media.”

Here’s a real example of this #Australian #Architecture style that's been subjected to “white mafia" Hamptons style renovation, attempting to make a raw, rustic tree trunk log-cabin post & beam construction style look like some sort of sleek #Modernism.
#Australian #Architecture nerds, is there a name / period / phrase for this era / style of house construction - featuring heavy timber exposed frames, with round tree trunk log posts, and then usually sawn beams. These houses were nearly always a million shades of brown, and would have high sarking board ceilings. There's a lot of these for sale now, all painted white and attempting to be Modernist, despite the tension of trying to hide the truth to materials of the rustic construction.

For my special Halloween edition of Fish Friday, Fish of Nightmares.
First up, the Viper Fish. From the Guardian, "The charismatic Viperfish ; Deep-sea viperfish have fangs so big they don’t fit inside their mouth, but they interlock in front of their jaws forming an inescapable, glassy cage" says Yi-Kai Tea, a fish expert from the Australian Museum in Sydney.
You can tell the expert cited is #Australian as only an #Aussie would describe this monstrosity as "Charismatic".
