If you were part of the Robodebt class action or if you were convicted of a welfare offence between 2001 and 2011, the project researchers would like to hear from you. Participation is completely voluntary.

I love strike season so so much

2/2 The wonderful Loud Jew Collective has been designated not Jewish enough to speak at the Royal Commission, so it’s on us to spread their media release. The RC is promoting the establishment messaging and silencing dissent. Please share this. #Auspol

I need someone to fall disastrously in love with me and also I need to put in zero effort in return. Just like let me be a cis dude for a bit.

“This budget was not a terrible one . . . But the ambition was not overarching – it was focused and it meant that the biggest winners were the most profitable companies in Australia and the biggest losers were those struggling with disabilities." – Greg Jericho Read more ➡️ https://thepoint.com.au/

Labor grandfathering negative gearing and the capital gains tax discount in the name of “generational equity” is so funny

Rolf Harris is looking well

have you seen the new supply chain vuln? don't update tubu. it's literally on heebee. they got poodee's deps. they infiltrated dippy. roll back weeno. disable scripts in ~/.gumpyrc. it's in poob. do not install poob. do not update poob. uninstall poob right now. poob has it in for you.

Got to say, I ain't too excited by a government provided metric saying only 2.58% of renters could become homeowners from the change they've made

Australia, "The Lucky* Country" *if you're a landlord

"If anything changes, I will be forced to raise it by the exact amount I already will be" he said to the media. chaser.com.au/general-news...

NEW CLASSIC

The best way to tell if you're reading AI is if your brain tries to slide off it – you can feel on an instinctual level that no one wrote this and it has nothing to say. There's just nothing to hold onto like you find in human writing.

The Budget Lockup is an eldritch secret ceremony during which the life essence of young journalists is drained to maintain Ross Gittins. Like the Emperor from W40K but with inflation instead of the warp

the tech world has genuinely not grappled with how many people despise them and what they make

Sir David “Bottom Keysmash” Attenborough

Today’s filmmakers are COWARDS who don’t know the value of a wet monster puppet

“We, the creators of the Torment Nexus, are now suing the writers of the classic science fiction novel ‘Don’t Create the Torment Nexus.’”

The ability for creators of all kinds to hone their craft on the dole instead of needing to come from money to get anywhere

No gay has all four:

Palantir must be destroyed if humanity is to survive. I'm not even joking.

We got home from Sydney much later than intended due to a massive failed side quest and Lux immediately showed us that his wet food timer hadn’t gone off (so he only had dry food from his special tower), screamed at me, knocked my new red hat to the ground and pissed on it.

For all those who are saying “it doesn’t make sense” or “it’s no excuse”, these people don’t need it to make sense, they don’t owe you an excuse for their bigotry, they are fried, every part of them is strung out with no shits to give

Living in a rural area and working with populations facing socioeconomic disadvantage you’d never witness in the city, it doesn’t feel hard to understand why people would outright refuse to vote for either Labor or Liberals

A young man was walking down Clarence st while I was getting kebab and he yelled “I’m a femboy not a Soviet” at his friends so I yelled that he could be both and one of his female friends came and told me I was an absolute baddie and that I was right and then I told them all they should be communist

I love how it almost looks like I'm wearing a dress made of my friends 🥰

Hahaha I threatened to have a guy killed tonight and he was afraid of me

Protesters attacked by police at a disability rally in Melbourne. #NDIS

Went to a really queer party and drank a lot and now I’m going to a less queer party that definitely has some tech guys so I might get to fight a guy about AI

HA!

In Australia, the pub rock scene flourished when welfare was liveable and now most Australian bands either struggle to survive long term or are bankrolled by their wealthy parents *cough* Sheppard *cough*

conservatives: how dare you call us fascists? also conservatives:

"everyone has algorithmically-induced fascist psychosis" is definitely an unprecedented organizing challenge for the modern era, for sure

This is getting sooo silly now. They've now added "including sick leave" to the headline. Just delete the article!

Unironically it's Comrade

#BREAKING 🚨 It seems ABC News have updated the headline of the article, an editor noting 'the article has been updated to further emphasise that income support includes sick leave.' There are no changes to the body of the article. To FURTHER emphasise this? What the fuck???????

The last coal mine in Norway (in Svalbard) just closed. Pretty ironic choice of words here: "the atmosphere is fine" (they mean the mood among people) en.highnorthnews.com/business/end...

If some jerk with a home verbally abuses his girlfriend (or anyone else) in public, can we take his sports car?

Posting corrupts, absolute posting corrupts absolutely

"The woman and her surviving child were taken to hospital in a critical condition. They have since been released." Back to the tent? Or to a hotel for two weeks as crisis accommodation then back to the tent because there's no rentals?

7 dollar gas. Well, I guess I'll buy an electric car. Oh those are 60 thousand dollars? Well at least electricity is cheap. Oh the government won't build solar panels because it's "Too transgender"? Well at least wages are going up. Oh the idea of jobs is fake now? Well at least everyone is happ

The fertility rate going down is good because it means fewer teens are having kids, people are thinking hard about how many kids they can actually afford, and fewer women who don't want kids aren't being forced to have them.

No you gotta EARN a barista smile

But let’s be clear. This happened because we stopped caring about people having basic needs. Housing is no longer considered shelter, it is considered an asset. And it’s not supposed to bother people that our system means some people can own 24 houses while other people have none.

The ABC reporting that regular welfare indexation is "draining the government's coffers" is incredibly dark stuff. all aboard the austerity train

Last night at the pub someone mistook for me for Chip, who is basically a loose unit cryptid who has been banned from every leftist group in Canberra for doing cooked shit, and this morning my friend was listening to NSW Parli and her husband said “is that Jules talking?” And it was ROSE JACKSON.
