Ugh. It's happening here! And I dislike it immensely. Further, I really dislike the fact that Guardian Australia has managed to do this:

'The girl was born male but “socially transitioned” at the age of four, the court heard.'

Is it ironic social transitioning? Fuck me. Social transitioning *is* the treatment for children! Has the Guardian gone trans medicalist? Nothing in that sentence needed quotation, or an actual quote the court heard needs to be there. Yuck.

@lenoretaylor @milesage @bkjabour I listened to it yesterday & LOVED it. I got onboard the GA express from the very first day it went publicly "live", when the website was very very "thin" indeed, but then enjoyed the ride as it fleshed out with more & more staff over all the subsequent months. I was, & remain, genuinely excited to have such a strong vibrant progressive unapologetic "new" media presence in the otherwise hideously Strayan media marketplace.

🤔

Can we assume that now, replete with the PM's glowing endorsement, is about to change tack & henceforth begin approving new projects, funding the industry, making cruelly parsimonious miniscule adjustments to the entrenched of , begin kicking peeps off , flouting spirit & letter just like the previous arseholes, promulgating pure bullshit housing policies, yada yada ... all the while bleating constantly but dishonestly that they're "leaving no readers behind"? 🤷‍♀️ 😜

@John Semi-rhetorical question / observation. GA's cookie cartoon policy is weird. 😮

-First Dog on the Moon is broken, without cookies enabled

- Fiona Katauskas' gems work fine, even with cookies blocked [= my default]

Say what? 🤷‍♀️

The former Queensland supreme court chief justice overseeing the royal commission has singled out reporters from and for their “committed” coverage of the evidence, calling it a “remarkably useful and important public service”, while criticising many other media outlets for their “patchy” coverage.

What an awful framing. Anything that slows Australia's outrageous population growth is disparaged in this article.

Ecology, quality of life, well-being, gdp-per-person ... it's as if they didn't exist

I wish would put a sock on all the soccer news.

Other, more important things are happening in the world
