an advance copy of a new book about mental illness, by Robyn Semple. It's intended to help people suffering from anxiety, depression or PTSD to understand the physiological causes behind their illness, to reduce shame & enable healing. It is really soothing & reassuring to read!

Property investor flips home purchased for $700,000 three years ago, for $1,000,000. Makes $300,000 capital gain, but only pays tax on $150,000 (50%). That means investor pockets half the gain ($150,000) without paying $1 in tax on it. You earn $150,000 pa…and you pay $43,567 in tax. Fair?

Signs that you're not really serious about reducing carbon emissions: - approval of new coal, oil & gas extraction - continued exploration for new coal, oil & gas reserves - subsidising fossil fuel use - taxing the sale & use of EV

Gough raised unemployment benefits to their highest level relative to poverty - then Fraser (and his treasurer John Howard) fucked it up as soon as they could. Hawke/Keating repaired some of the damage... then Howard fucked it up for good

“Woke” in the USA is NOT just about having empathy & accepting other identities. It’s understanding the systemic nature of social problems & how they are masterfully designed & maintained by BOTH political parties, courts, government & their billionaire owners. We must UNITE en masse against them.

Andrew Hastie: soldier for an extreme version of governing by Christ
Andrew Hastie is a more extreme Fundamentalist Christian than Scott Morrison. Australians cannot let his attempts to lead the nation go unchallenged. His place on the ARC Board is a warning.

“State capture.” A form of corruption so deeply embedded that it shapes the rules of democracy itself. We see it every day here. If we don’t confront it, starting with ‘calling it’ & voting for ethically aligned Greens & independents, it will increase.

☕️ A Sunday read on the "Critical Minerals" plan. It's not just industrial policy—it's MMT in action. 💡 By funding a national priority, the gov demolishes its own "household budget" myth and proves they've always had the money to fund things like housing & the NDIS. 💥 👇
