You shouldn’t be paying more tax than a massive gas corporation. Sign the petition for a minimum 25% export tax on gas to fund cost-of-living relief, so that Australia's resources benefit everyone.

The speed at which a virus spreads depends mainly on two factors:

1: How dense the population is.

2: How dense the population is.

It has come to my attention that, starting next year, new #cars will be required by US law to refuse to start if a facial-recognition AI decides you're drunk or tired.

You've got to be kidding me.

Not even a fully-intelligent human can make that determination just by looking at you, let alone a machine.

Imagine if your only ride out of the wilderness won't start because the bot incorrectly thinks you're drunk. Or because there's no 5G signal out there.

This is going to get people killed.

The American Analog Set - “Gone To Earth” from The Fun Of Watching Fireworks (1996)

This dreamy track from #Texas #indie band #TheAmericanAnalogSet's debut album maintains a spacious feel as a surprising assemblage of elements drift in, entwine around each other, and recede. To call it #lofi would be a disservice to the sweetness of this track; rather, think of it as spare and low-key.

V Spy V Spy - Trash the Planet

https://youtu.be/IXqiETZYtOE

From deep in 1989 comes pub rock of the Spies singing about the problems they saw with our management of planet Earth. Somehow still relevant and dare I say, timeless music.

🎶 Look the rivers out there are burning fast
Season changing here at last
But no one's learning can't they see
Trash our planet is what will be

Rhythm, there's rhythm out there
That lies unseen
Sweeping forests winter green
No one's watching they look elsewhere
Trash our planet and say your prayers

Look there's people out there
Who speak unheard
Simple phrases say the word
But no one's hearing can't we see
Trash our planet is what will be 🎶
