950,000+ kids living in poverty. $380 BN on subs we will never see. Budgets reveal your values. The ALP and LNP have none.

This increases their lifetime exposure to physical and mental illness with direct implications for them personally and for the health system. #HealthInequality

Australia has had a rise of 237,000 children living in poverty. Which brings the total up to 950,100 which means this year we are at risk of it surpassing 1 million bcec.edu.au/media/anothe...

Jay Coonan spoke with @beneltham.bsky.social on RRR FM's Future Perfect about compulsory obligations, bungled government policy and the failure of government to do anything about the billions wasted on outsourced employment services – starting at 20mins. www.rrr.org.au/explore/prog...

Well the @antipovertycentre.org certainly got some media this week: You can listen back to @artistaffame.bsky.social talking with ABC Radio in Adelaide last week talking about heat and disability during the heatwaves last week. Starting at 32:11 www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

47.4 Celsius, or 117.3 Fahrenheit.

Fuck those guys. We will do our own cultural festivals and disinclude them. There's more of us and we ARE the writers!!!!

If the US attacks Greenland (a NATO ally) then Australia needs to rapidly act. Assess the threat posed by the many US military assets in Australia and design a strategy to remove them as rapidly as possible. No one can seriously pretend they make us safe anymore.

Absolutely disgraceful. The Adelaide Festival has cancelled Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah from appearing.

This is how ICE agents responded after watching a mother of three bleed out in her car after they shot her multiple times in the head.

Doing some media today about heatwaves and inadequate heating and cooling in rentals

A new year begins We step into this year with gratitude in our hearts and hope for gentler days ahead.❤️ Any support, no matter the size, helps us move forward with a little more stability and hope.🌹

Hey folks does anyone have a phone they could pay forward. As 3G is being turned off on January 6th there’s someone who needs one as there’s will no longer work on that date.

X is asking for selfies to verify age or selfies and ID lol no one’s gonna choose the second option unless you look young I guess

I have been saying that we price too much of the good in and can only see the bad. Without early social media (Slashdot, kuro5hin) there’s a decent chance I’d not be anywhere near where I am now

We need to listen to children’s voices. The social media ban harms us all

Imagine if they just paid people enough to buy the food when it was still on the shelf in the shop.

Seems to me if welfare payments were above the poverty line people could buy this for full price pre-expiration instead of copping the indignity of being "donated" food unfit for consumption, but hey, it's a tax write off so those corporate profits are fine! This is literally just to fuck the needy!

NO, the answer is not make all the dono go through mega charities like ozharvest so food standards are adhered to (yeah they try bu they also fail) it's GIVE PEOPLE MONEY. #RaiseTheRate of welfare above the poverty line.

Poor people and the people supporting them don't have the energy to deal with your garbage. If it's garbage, throw it in the bin, don't try to feel good and write it off as a donation

Woolworths donated $81mil in "unwanted stock", how much of it was inedible and potentially dangerous like this from ALDIAustralia bsky.app/profile/phon...

A big feature of hating the poor, is people wildly overestimating how much help is available to the poor, and the quality of that help. They imagine welfare is an easy to get, comfortably livable income, or imagine we eat well off charity, when irl rich donors commonly use charity to offload waste
