Israel getting 0 votes from Australia at Eurovision was brought up in senate estimates today 🫠

Am going through the NDIS bill. @markbutlermp.bsky.social is bringing in changes that are the precise definition of cruel. Just a sick joke of a "progressive" government. The cuts to social, economic and community participation will destroy lives.

evening tea

my grandfather delivered mail for 40 years and retired with a house and a pension my father worked a steady office job with only the occasional layoff, bought a house and has a 401k i have a youtube channel, a kidney disorder, and a 1BD apartment but yeah I'll get right on that pessimism problem

Excuse the Flemish but this is huge - Belgian court has found in favour of 5 women stolen by the Belgian state from their mothers in Congo and has to pay compensation. Article says it’s the first time a European state had has to pay compensation to victims of colonisation.

The NACC Estimates session is starting now! Watch live www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZRz...

This is just so odd and has been going on for hours it feels like already

dear god we're at the terf part of Senate Estimates have these people got no bigger issues to hold the Government to account on

YOU’RE LISTENING TO SISYPHUS FM, THE HOME OF NON-STOP ROCK

hors de combat pronounced in a broad australian accent

GREENS WIN YOU GUYS

"We've replaced HR with AI" Somewhere, in the distance, a pride of lawyers lifts their heads off the ground. Prey is headed in their direction. Tonight will be good hunting.

7 months till Christmas 🥰

My 8 year old has been learning about the ship of Theseus at her public school and I’m quite sure that is something that as a parent I should have dibs on imparting

Went for the extra strength nasal rinse and got to say it was a mistake - my sinuses are clear but at what cost

The same Israeli Ambassador they invited to the press club yeah?

Proud day eh @markbutlermp.bsky.social, @albomp.bsky.social? Could have taxed gas companies, decided instead to hit people with Down Syndrome. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Even Lurpak isn’t butter anymore

Don't buy Tasmanian salmon

These “if you don’t like it leave” people often seem to really not like it here?

Getting less motivated to pass the Turing test.

'Man dies in Sydney prison unit that watchdog wanted shut down because it ‘cannot provide a safe environment’' www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Very impressed to see IPART at the airport directly getting info on people’s experience with taxi rides from there - honestly a shocker often double usual cost for no apparent reason

let the soft trash bag of your body carry what it loves

The US China meetings very embarrassing for the west as a whole

The Australian literally found a guy with a Porsche and a property portfolio to be the voice of the 'victims' of the budget

Morning

Good morning

Yochi again doing discount before 2pm tomorrow which means 25k steps = a free yochi. Long distance runners our time has come.

Very funny that today of all days the Oz is running puff pieces for the cruise industry

This is pretty fucked as is the government statement the kids will be put in counter terrorism programs using these as a threat basically rather than a genuine needs based intervention - this whole thing shows the worst of Australia

If Americans like Bluey so much let’s chuck in some pro gun control content

1 like = 1 belly rub for Frank

Mr Albanese will build on the theme of social cohesion in his speech to mining bosses

Matthew 5:9

Kids playing schools all day provably a good sign I guess

Australia is not an active participant in this war my arse

Shorter national address

Unless Albo is kicking the Americans out of Darwin and Pine Gap I don’t wanna hear it

Nothing says 'not a crisis, don't panic' like the prime minister deciding to hold a covid-style address at 7pm on the last day of parliament for a month, ahead of a hastily arranged press club address, just to prove that yes, this government does hold a (petrol) hose.

Today marks two years since Australian aid worker Zomi Frankcom was killed by Israel. Two years on, there has been no justice or accountability. Even the family’s most basic wishes of an apology from Israel and compensation to honour her life and support other aid workers have not been met.

odysseus, shortly after leaving Circe’s island

Absolute shit being uttered by the Israeli Ambassador at the National Press Club. Disgusting lies and filth. Every journalist there should walk out.

Expel the Israeli ambassador

"Ben-Gvir, among the most ardent backers of the bill, has repeatedly worn a noose-shaped lapel pin – a symbol of the method by which Palestinians could be executed under the proposed law." I am being radicalised day upon day.

Such beautiful memories

Hey my blood group is never special count me in
