Okay so if Twitter's really going to asplode for real this time, I kept forgetting to post the updated link to my Github Pages site on which I store random crap
miss-inputs.github.io
If there's anything else in the category of "where to find me" it'll go there

I’m 3 years into an #FOI ‘battle’ with @DefenceAust after requesting analysis on the national security implications of #climate change. They ‘surrendered’ 3 docs to me yesterday, but are witholding a further 15 docs in case the ‘enemy’, Mother Nature, were to see them. #auspol

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang had another affair with an executive at the company, according to a report from The New York Times.
This is his second known affair, following his relationship with an alleged Chinese spy.

Freedom of information data released this morning supports what disability advocates and NDIS recipients have been telling us for over a year: the vast majority of ‘savings’ from the recent NDIS reforms will come from cutting services and supports for vulnerable Australians, not from fraud or integrity measures.

Oi! Blaming Iran for some local attack in your country that very obviously wasn't Iran at all is copyrighted by Australia. EU, you will pay dearly
BREAKING: European Union says Iran hacked cooling systems in 700 supermarkets in France, raising freezers and fridges as high as 80°C and spoiling massive amounts of food, declaring the EU will now impose sanctions on Iran.
The attack also caused around 20 fires.
"I can confirm that this attack was carried out by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of the Islamic Republic of Iran," France's FM Barrot says.
"It marks the first large-scale cyberattack aimed at sabotage on our national territory, and it constitutes a major attack on the nation's interests and the security of the French people," he adds.

Because of the USA, an innocent Australian citizen has languished in prison in NSW for more than four years.
He's broken no Australian laws.
He hasn't been charged with a crime.
The US demands his extradition on charges that aren't crimes here.
But we aren't "free" to say no.

I’m going to speak my truth. I think it’s really unfair to call it millennial grey when most millennials won’t ever own a home and were forced to rent these flipped homes who the owners decided to turn all sanitized and grey because it was cheap! We had no control over this!

People like to say Australia is just like the US but I don't see Australia making threats to cut off US internet, nor does Australia have a shitload of military bases on US soil like they do here.
The US extends its influence everywhere and we are victims of it.
NINETY-NINE PERCENT of Australia’s international internet traffic travels through about 15 cables on the seafloor. As @RichardMarlesMP put it, they’re the arteries of modern life, and they can be cut by an anchor at night.
Protecting them is one more reason to deepen our cooperation through #AUKUS.

This phenomenon was noted in Japanese prison camps as well, and was documented in Gavan Dawes's "Prisoners of the Japanese." Among the incarcerated nationalities--British, Australian, and Dutch--only the Americans killed each other in captivity.
It's a shameful part of our history that no one discusses. Under duress and in prison camps, the British relied on their discipline and class system. The Australians formed their little socialistic communes. The Dutch laid low and played dumb. But only the Americans fought each other.
Our hyper-individualistic culture, our elevation of greed and materialism, created the conditions for this to happen.
But self-reflection and humility are not usually American strong points.
In German POW camps in WWII (where Vonnegut himself was held), Americans were the dirtiest and most demoralized. They stopped brushing their teeth and washing, developed running sores and diseases that prisoners from other nations largely avoided, and “became totally demoralized.”
His explanation: Americans “cannot stand to lose.” Their upbringing (especially mothers telling them “you can do it,” “go out there and win,” and dismissing doubts) creates a win-or-quit mindset.
They make good soldiers while winning, but “something in them collapses” in defeat. Losing feels like they can’t go home again.
