To my transgender siblings,

We are loved, awesome, powerful, magical, and above the hate that society tends to show us these days! We are all so magical, and just remember that there is a majority of the population that supports us! We survived being attacked by the Nazis during World War 2, and we WILL survive what is going on around the world these days. Never give in to the hate, and never surrender!

And to our supposed allies,

We NEED you all to speak up more! Be more visible with your support! Get out there, and put down transphobes! Help us argue against the politicians that are trying to erase us from society! We cannot stop them alone!

Seeing as I won't be able to take any digital devices into this event at uni, do we think that the "particular agency [which] is part of the National Intelligence Community" is going to have a box outside the room that we can all leave our (so far..) unbugged and unhacked phones in while we listen to their information lecture?

Maybe with one of their agents to watch over them and ensure that they are kept safe?

Dear [deadname],
A guest speaker from a Canberra-based Australian Government agency will be visiting [location] to conduct an interactive information session about careers within the security and intelligence sector, on 15th October.

This particular agency is part of the National Intelligence Community and is not often acknowledged or reported on in the media. You may be familiar with the agency due to your education and interests. However, given the discreet approach which the agency takes in order to protect the success of its business and activities overseas, this is an opportunity not to be missed.

The presentation will appeal to students who are interested in:

- World events and Australia’s relationship with other countries;

- International security and intelligence issues, and careers in this sector;

- Seeking to make a difference through their employment; or

- A desire to contribute professionally to the ‘bigger picture’ and Australia’s place in it.
_____

Additional information:
- I have to pre-register with my email address, phone number, date of birth, and student id number

- they will only reveal the location of the event to registered attendees the day before

- I will not be allowed to take any digital devices I to the event

- the email warns not to discuss the event with anyone else
_____

So, who do we think it is?

It's so weird to see things I was hoisted as a conspiracy theorist for years ago literally be news headlines now.

I think what we are seeing through the uprising of fascism is that either humans are naturally evil, stupid, gullible, or a mix of any or all of those. You would think after WW2 humanity would have learned to avoid Nazism/Fascism, but I guess not.. #GlobalPOL
The economy sucks, the job market sucks, the politicians are more openly corrupt than ever, and now they’re trying to take online anonymity away to boot… meanwhile I’m trying to just survive and not lose my mind but I guess that’s going on everywhere to some degree at the moment.

I just want to take care of my family why is this so hard?

Huh. An actually reasonable (ethnic?) nationalist.
I knew they existed somewhere.

#DHS Flew #PredatorDrones Over #LAProtests, Audio Shows

by Joseph Cox, Jun 10, 2025

"The Department of Homeland Security (#DHS) flew two high-powered Predator surveillance drones above the #AntiICEProtests in Los Angeles over the weekend, according to air traffic control (ATC) audio unearthed by an aviation tracking enthusiast then reviewed by #404Media and cross-referenced with flight data.

"The use of Predator drones highlights the extraordinary resources government agencies are putting behind surveilling and responding to the Los Angeles protests, which started after ICE agents raided a Home Depot on Friday. President Trump has since called up 4,000 members of the National Guard, and on Monday ordered more than 700 active duty Marines to the city too.

" 'TROY703, traffic 12 o'clock, 8 miles, opposite direction, another 'TROY' Q-9 at FL230,' one part of the ATC audio says. The official name of these types of #PredatorBDrones, made by a company called #GeneralAtomics, is the #MQ9 Reaper.

"On Monday #404Media reported that all sorts of agencies, from local, to state, to DHS, to the military flew aircraft over the Los Angeles protests. That included a DHS Black Hawk, a California Highway Patrol small aircraft, and two aircraft that took off from nearby March Air Reserve Base."

this is #globalPol I guess. I try to not constantly post videos from #MeidasTouch but they've just won the #webby award for Best Podcast and they are an amazing news media organisation who inspire me every day. There are multiple other podcasts under their umbrella - like "Mia Culpa" and "Legal AF" and more, and they have over 5m subscribers and are currently more popular than Joe Rogan.

Great people doing great things - here is an interview telling their story.
