I’m a single mum with a daughter’

Tested the line this morning - on hold for 90 minutes and the auto-script is directing me to hang up and consult the website to resolve my issues I've gone to the website and, welp - it's down

Australian state and federal governments provided $16.3 billion in subsidies to fossil fuel producers and major users in 2025-26, according to new research from The Australia Institute”. This is a pretty screwed up way up address climate change, @australianlabor.bsky.social.

I assume this myth exists because there are only 4 weeks in a month, and most women know more than 3 other women. Odds are, you’ll be bleeding at the same time as at least someone you know closely, just based on numbers, right?

If you see this post a vampire who is not Dracula

This is clearly very serious, but are people supposed to get regular colonoscopies in the US? A guy in this story had them annually!

i genuinely would have never guessed there would be such a backlash to the idea of we shouldn’t say slurs or be cruel

A misogynist is someone who signs up to do the dirty work of keeping women in their place, either in the wider project and/or the immediate intimate social group. This can be anyone, in any sphere of influence, and it’s *crucial* to separate that from their personal feelings about chicks they know.

This is why Kate Manne’s work correctly defining misogyny is so crucial to understanding our current moment. Misogyny isn’t “hating women”, these guys all have exceptions to that. Misogyny describes the *policing arm* of the patriarchy; its foot soldiers are the misogynists. It’s like ICE.

If i was a vampire I'd be fine. If I was confronted with the erosion of the soul borne of my need to regard all other creatures as prey or competition I would simply handle it.

My 14yo was verified as over 18 by all her apps with a face scan. She didn’t lose access to anything. Her friends were kicked off a few things but just made new accounts with fake birth dates. They’re all still on everything 🤷🏼‍♀️ I actually didn’t even realise you could report accounts as under age…

Don't forget to fill in a felt report for the NSW and ACT Earthquake if you felt it. Mag 4.5 - Depth 11km. earthquakes.ga.gov.au/event/ga2026...

Omg an earthquake! That was so exciting!

I cannot believe we're reading another article where the Labor caucus are acting like they're hostages. Shut the fuck up and do some politics. Break something. I have zero sympathy for any of you.

Even if AI could write a novel what problem has been solved? The problem of knowing what you’re reading was written by another person? Who loves reading novels but hates the part where your mind briefly and mysteriously touched another?

“Banning new prescriptions of gender-affirming hormones for 16 and 17-year-olds is a profound attack on young people’s bodily autonomy with trans people yet again cruelly singled out by this government.” The British government continues to trash gender affirming care by claiming “extreme caution.”

Nasty stuff, this. Transgender folk exist. They always have & always will. Their existence harms nothing & nobody. We ought to support them to live with pride & dignity.

I don't understand why it requires a petition to get authorities to investigate the anti-Islamic acts of terror of a man who declared himself "far right", who threatened children, who barged into a community hall throwing punches & abuse at people But here we are. Please sign👇

"Victoria Police said police did not arrest the alleged attacker at the scene, instead asking him "to move on". "A petition online asking federal member for Ballarat Catherine King, Ballarat Mayor Tracey Hargreaves and Ballarat police to take the matter seriously has received 252 signatures." ✍️ 👇

So saying "from the river to the sea" is now a hate crime, but threatening children and barging inside a Muslim dinner to "throw punches and abuse" just gets you a nice move-along-son from the police?

Adult men Don’t Touch A 14yo Girl challenge

when you’re trying to sleep after the work conference but someone keeps mumbling “for the love of god, monstressor”

I think ‘Meet the Journalist’ would probably have been fine here, yeah?

A man will build an unholy creation instead of going to therapy

Also your climate crimes are boring af. You all need tshirts that say normal human consumer and separate yourselves from the crims that enabled the micro platics in your balls

I made up a song about this that I sing when I go uphill. ‘Hills are bullshit’ Is most of the lyrics, tbqh

this rules youraislopbores.me

English lessons not 'socially cohesive' enough? 'Last election, Labor Member for Bruce, Julian Hill, announced a $670,000 grant to the Taha Humanity Association of Victoria to upgrade its community centre in Dandenong and support programs such as English lessons.'

Is everyone using ChatGPT to write job applications now? Am I the only one doing my own?

And this, kids, is why we need Oxford commas…

Of course, the only people who will suffer (apart from the bureaucrats and ministers if they miss their budget savings targets) will be the people who use the NDIS having the biggest reform since it began thrust on them in this way. www.crikey.com.au/2026/03/05/r...

Cried because I saw a spider, like a big grown up girl

This is, without a doubt, the best #IWD gift to ever exist. Absolute perfection.

If you deliberately make your kid cry, you are a bad parent, no matter the circumstances.

This is a terrible mistake. Delta is a great singer, yeah. But we have so many talented and unique artists who would’ve been much better suited to Eurovision, surely. Such a shame.

When you get superglue in your eye and can’t use acetone to clean it, that’s when the real trouble starts or so I hear

No but you can actually do this, and with lots of other stuff too.

I cannot think of any names that sound more like American athletes than Kyle, Jake, Jackson, Brock, and another Jake

Absolutely no normal person on earth would be surprised to hear that workers aren’t responsible for inflation, and that the profits of the bosses are - but every single institution in the country will still blame (and punish) workers for it 🤷‍♂️

The Bondi Royal Commission has confirmed it won’t be examining the Bondi attack. Top work, everyone.

This is horrific and I want to know why there is no royal commission into anti-LGBTIQ attacks. I would guess the police dropped the ball on this like they have on all the other homophobia attacks and murders since history. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02...

It is 83% humidity and I am DYING

‘Stupid babies need the most attention’ is probably pretty high on my list
