Fully furnished, including utilities. Honestly, this landlord is only charging "fair" market rate. Nearby share houses are $300+ just for a room. Australia is cooked.

HEY FRIENDS!! Did you know that Australia - #2 in the world for data centre investment - is now formally missing its climate targets thanks in large part to the resulting surge in power demand? It's massive news - @crikey.com.au let me NERD OUT to explain why: www.crikey.com.au/2025/12/04/d...

I declare that all cricket-enjoying Australians can finish work now

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream. Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads. Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

There's something special about the Red Wings jersey. It doesn't matter what name is on it or who is wearing it, they look like a superstar

Meanwhile, over at the apocalyptic wasteland hellscape that is Twitter (with roaming gangs of sexist, misogynistic, racist, Islamophobic and gay-hating MAGA zombies) the wonderful @deniseshrivell.bsky.social absolutely nails it. 👇 #auspol #SocialMediaBan #GamblingAdBan

So many zoomers are going to get fucked over

So I believe, strictly IMO, what this means for us regular Australians, is move your super into a conservative portfolio ASAP. www.instagram.com/reel/DRs51FH...

No right-wing tech dweebs get to complain about the land use impact of a wind farm ever again

The Albanese govt has certainly learnt something from #robodebt: they can treat people like shit, and get away with it. #disability #NDIS #auspol

I call on the Australian government to #RaiseTheRate of all support payments to a living wage. This would be the single most effective way to lift the productivity, quality of life, and well-being of the whole country. #CommitToALivingWage

Reminder that Sam Altman is being sued by his younger sister for sexual abuse.

Disasters like the BoM website update exemplify exactly why we need to build capacity in the public service and reduce our over reliance on consultants. A robust public service will always provide better value for money and better quality for the taxpayer dollar.

unsurprisingly Jenny McAllister, the minister for the NDIS, has made speaking to a human in either office very difficult but you can leave a message at her parliament phone: +61262777290 or her surry hills office: +61297198100

Reading this whole article makes it sound even worse. There are many unanswered questions. Care for our most vulnerable people continues to get degraded and no one in power seems to care

The government’s laws cancelling social security payments for some accused of crimes turn a safety net into a weapon for punishing people. 👉 Read the full story: theconversation.com/with-a-...

Funny how we can have a seemingly endless 'debate' about renewable energy technologies, and yet with AI there's no debate allowed. It's just imposed on everyone by corporates and governments no matter how absolutely shit it is

But call him racist and the newspaper editors will be "hmmm, not sure we can say that"

YouTube is going to comply with the social media ban after all. blog.google/intl/en-au/p...

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

1/ I am an engineer trying to better understand economics. Financial jargon breaks my brain. Nothing behaves like a real system. It’s all backward loops, paradoxes, and confidence games. Here’s a thread on the insane logic of finance that makes zero sense to me 🧵👇 #econosky #economics

Unbelievable!!! Why do our governments hate the environment?? Why do you think anyone visits Australia?? This is so distressing

According to this, in Indian and British folklore having a hard cross your path isn't great www.thefield.co.uk/country-hous...

A large hare just hopped past my window

I've worked hard with all non-govt senators to secure release of the Briggs review. Now it's clear why the Albanese Govt was hiding it for two years. They are refusing to implement recommendations designed to ensure we have merit-based appointments 🤯 www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

If you give a shit about transparency and democracy in Australia, then it’s crucial to support @oaf.org.au - please donate to keep them doing vital work: donate.oaf.org.au

Sure, they've made an environmentally catastrophic mass hallucination disinformation plagiarism Clippy that will destabilize the world, but also their other goal is to replace human workers entirely and let us humans starve. A boycott of AI is the most important boycott of your entire life.

It’s so wild how the wealthy are destroying the Amazon that potentially has the cure for all the cancers in favor of an Amazon that’s creating new types of cancers

The system works!

Pinkpop Archive posted the 2008 @metallica.com set and it's perfect. I would have lost my mind if I was up front for this one youtu.be/wZ4U97KIL44?... #metal

Remember Google+? lol

I recommend watching the episode of Octonauts where they help a colony of fiddler crabs. Kids shows can be pretty funny

Have we reached peak dysfunction?! The NACC handed $1.1M to MA Services - the firm running a Nauru security operation linked with the Finks bikie gang. They're also guarding the ACIC who are literally tasked with taking down bikie gangs🤯

Everyday there's something new going on in the world that breaks my heart

A major, MAJOR, humanitarian crisis is about to kick off in Iran due to almost 50 years of absolutely terrible environmental management by the corrupt theocratic govt. When you have no water there's nothing you can do. Nothing.

BREAKING: Pauline Hanson is in hot water after it’s revealed she charged taxpayers thousands$ for flights, priv cars & hotels to attend her private court matter where it was found she Racially discriminated Mehreen Faruqi. She classifies it as work. Should pay it back & Resign.

A stupid and unjust entangling of policing and welfare. The Albanese govt should put their time and effort into things that would make a real difference: fixing the ineffective job provider scheme, and getting rid of the cruel and counterproductive 'mutual obligation' system. #poverty #auspol

So Labor and the Liberals teamed up to pass legislation to give police the power to recommend cancellation of Centrelink payments of people who have not been found guilty of a crime by a court of law. It’s discriminatory financial punishment of people in poverty who are already over-policed

Everyone prefers a nice, proper coffee, but seriously, God bless the inventor of instant coffee.

Here, again, is the human cost of the government's unlawful system of payment suspensions Constant cycles of punishment that you cannot escape - even when you're in hospital www.kingaroy.org/invisible-ca...

I love a bit of history, and I love the Sniper Elite games, so when I heard that the Rebellion Games CEO has a YouTube channel I had to check it out. I was sold the second I saw this intro: youtu.be/CEOs5J4ECOM?...

on this logic all the alleged rapists could be sacked without notice. So as to you know cut off their income based on “serious” allegations. Oddly nobody is proposing that employed rapists be punished without a guilty plea or guilty verdict. thepoint.com.au/opinions/251...

FUCK SOCIAL MEDIA. MARRY BOOKS. KILL AI.

In the end, when I walked from my X account, the waves of racists and bots that were always invoking the same phrases and talking points made it clear that the thing was just a hall of mirrors, that it had been crudely rigged for political fraud. Never thought Musk would admit it all in a self-own.
