the first time i met @AngusTaylorMP, atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration was 393.5 ppm and the newly preselected member for hume was at the start of his parliamentary crusade against renewables energy.

Kylie Kilroy never wanted to be famous. She still isn’t really.
She’s only featured in a few media articles over the years.
But Kylie is dying.
And she wants you to remember her story. #watergate

And she wants you to remember her story. #watergate
I did a lengthy thread last year about Kylie & what happened to her life after she was flooded out by the levy banks at Kia Ora.
Kia Ora is the property at the centre of the #watergate buybacks controversy.
In 2011 it was owned by Eastern Aust Agriculture.
Yes, that one.

In 2011 it was owned by Eastern Aust Agriculture.
Yes, that one.
Because the levy banks on that farm were built so high (9 metres in parts) they impeded the natural water flow of the Balonne river in flood.
And so Kylie and her husband and animals, on their little farm opposite Kia Ora, were destroyed by the flood.

The Chart of the Century: Gold vs Dow
For 100 years, the Gold/Dow ratio has traced an expanding triangle (ABCDE).
We are now in Wave E — the terminal phase.
➡️ Elliott Wave target:
• Gold $20,000–$25,000 base case
• Silver $300–$500 (potentially >$1000 in mania)
• Gold/Dow ratio aiming for 20x from here, possibly retesting Upper trendline or a bit throwover
It seems unbelievable today. Bookmark this , in 10 years you’ll see how obvious it was.

What is GOLD/DJI?
It measures gold’s purchasing power vs equities. When it rises, gold outperforms stocks; when it falls, equities dominate. It’s the cleanest lens on money vs risk.

But 90% of investors read insider buying data WRONG
Here's the framework I use to separate real conviction from noise:
A masterclass in reading SAST filings 🧵
First, understand the 3 types of insider buying:
1️⃣ Open Market Purchase
→ Promoter buys from secondary market
→ Signal strength: MODERATE
2️⃣ Preferential Allotment
→ Company issues fresh shares to promoter
→ Signal strength: STRONG
3️⃣ Warrant Conversion
→ Promoter converts warrants to equity
→ Signal strength: STRONG (already paid 25% upfront)

🚩 RED FLAGS - Avoid these types of "insider buying":
❌ Inter-se transfers (just moving shares between family members)
❌ Reclassification (converting public to promoter category)
❌ Inheritance/gift transfers
❌ Frequent issuance of shares/warrants
These show ZERO conviction. Just accounting jugglery

🔴Has Israel annexed the West Bank? A tectonic change has happened, and they're counting on you not to understand it. Stay with us. It is critically important. Here is the explanation 🧵
First of all, the West Bank has been de facto annexed for a long time. On paper, it remains under occupation, which is meant to be a temporary arrangement until the territory is transferred to its legal sovereign, a representative of the Palestinian people.
In practice, Israel treats the West Bank as its own sovereign territory, with no intention of transferring power to Palestinians. That’s why for decades it’s been building settlements, roads, farms, and tourist sites there. There are now entire Israeli cities in the West Bank.
We are approaching the end of time. Gemini DeepResearch is just incomparably better than most of what my students produced at the end of their course last November (the best ML master in France). Some comparisons
On the subject: "Best counter arguments to the X-risk discourse"
Here is a comparison focusing on an argument shared in the 3 reports:
a. A student, one month to do the project
b. OpenAI's DeepResearch, 5 min
c. Gemini 2.5 DeepResearch, 30 min

I gave 5/20 to the student.
I would give 17/20 to OpenAI's DeepResearch.
And probably 20/20 to Google DeepResearch.
It's hard to imagine a student doing better, even at the beginning of their PhD.

🚨France, Germany, Italy, and the United States have escalated attacks on UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, demanding her resignation over remarks she did not make.
Here’s everything you need to know:
1. U.S. Ambassador Mike Waltz and the leading Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee accused Albanese of calling Israel the “common enemy of humanity.”
2. French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot went further, branding her a “political activist who stirs up hate,” accusing her of comparing Israel to the Third Reich, and announcing France will formally demand her removal at the UN Human Rights Council session on February 23, 2026. He insisted she must resign immediately.
🔴3. But Albanese never called Israel the “common enemy of humanity.” She described the system enabling genocide in Palestine as humanity’s common enemy. The quote has been widely misrepresented.
4. French officials also criticized her for appearing at the Doha Forum alongside a Hamas leader and Iran’s foreign minister. In fact, she was not on stage with those figures. Paris has long accused her of “justifying” the October 7 attacks for contextualizing them within decades of occupation, a characterization President Emmanuel Macron previously called a “disgrace.”
5. The Trump administration has previously demanded her removal and imposed sanctions on her for documenting Israel’s crimes.
6. Germany’s Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul echoed the push, writing: “I respect the UN system based on independent rapporteurs. However, Albanese has made numerous inappropriate statements in the past. I condemn her recent statements on Israel. Her position is untenable.”
7. Italy’s foreign minister also supported her removal, stating that Albanese’s positions “do not reflect those of the Italian government” and that her “behaviors, statements, and initiatives are not appropriate for the position she holds within a body of peace and guarantee such as the United Nations.”
8. Supporters, including various scholars, say the campaign is political retaliation for her reports on Israeli human rights violations.
9. Amnesty International France called Paris’s move a “shameful misrepresentation,” stating: “No, Francesca Albanese did not designate Israel as the common enemy of humanity… We denounce this attack on the independence of her mandate.” The group added it was “shocking” that France’s foreign minister repeated false claims while publicly prioritizing the fight against disinformation.
10. In an interview with L’Humanité, Albanese responded to @jnbarrot: “Everyone makes mistakes, it’s human. But we correct, we rectify,” calling on him to apologize and retract his false comments.
11. The backlash has not come only from Western governments.. “We don’t agree with much of what she says. We wouldn’t use the language that she’s using in describing the situation,” the spokesperson for UN Secretary-General António Guterres said.
The fight now centers on whether @FranceskAlbs, an independent UN Special Rapporteur can continue documenting Israeli crimes without political reprisal.

🚨 NEW FROM CAL DOGE: Our first Fraud Report. $370 million in Cannabis Tax money that was supposed to be used for "substance abuse prevention" siphoned off into a Democrat voter registration slush fund.
DETAILS:
1. Californians voted to fund youth drug prevention through the Cannabis Tax. Instead, $370M in revenue is bankrolling leftwing activism.
2. The money flows through a single unelected nonprofit - The Center at Sierra Health Foundation’s Elevate Youth program.
3. The Center has gotten rich off this arrangement - growing from $11.8M in 2018 to $197M in 2024. The CEO makes over $600K.
4. The Center runs Prop 64 dollars through to a web of NGOs, including the Jakara Movement, Young Invincibles, and Asian Refugees United - for activism, organizing, and voter registration.
5. This is not drug prevention - it’s a taxpayer funded pipeline from the governor’s office to leftwing political organizing.
