The Shen Yun dancers & acrobats are advertising another tour so it's time to say again that they are a propaganda wing of a weird far-right cult, their show claims that atheism and science are evil, they are homophobic and misogynistic and the performers are bullied and exploited. Don't buy tickets.

Hate it when you see what you think is a cool bird and you look it up later and it’s called like the Common Dumb Asshole. “Birders throughout history have hated its guts. It can’t even fly right.” I thought I saw an interesting guy.

Labour just don't get it. They don't get how scared people are with extreme weather becoming our new normal.
We need voices in parliament that will force them to take wildfires seriously, not quietly shirk responsibility.

It's not often you get public information posters that become design classics, and the rabies posters of the 1970s are suitable for framing. As far as I know, no other infection was given an official, none-more-metal, logo. But the rabies logo rocks!
