A community battery project three years in the making, run by a local not-for-profit and backed by the council, was killed after a spark of misinformation about its fire risk was ignited.

Australia has recorded its highest number of Indigenous deaths in custody since 1979-80. The shameful statistic shows how little progress has been made since the 1991 royal commission.

It's 4,000 BC. You are immortal. The Egyptian pyramids have not yet been built. You decide to save $10,000 EVERY DAY, never spending a cent. 6025 years later, it's 2025. You still don't have as much money as Gina Rinehart. TAX. THE. FUCKING. BILLIONAIRES. 🐝 #auspol

Two people get diagnosed with ADHD in their 20s. Same age, same gender ("same super contribution"; IYKYK), and get prescribed Vyvance. One pays $100/mo. The other pays $30/mo because they can demonstrate childhood ADHD symptoms & thus get Vyvance on the PBS. How the heck does this make *any* sense?!
