I was listening to George Monbiot yesterday. About his new book The secret history of neo-liberalism. Accidental listening driving home. It was making me so angry about the deliberateness of it all. Then he talked about change. When the impossible becomes inevitable. Think marriage equality.

Well we could actually have almost anything if we taxed even just a little better. The Norwegian Sovereign Wealth Fund otherwise known as the Oil Fund holds about US$295,000 per Norwegian citizen. The revenue from our resources boom was used to fund tax relief for the already wealthy.

David Crisafulli wants to talk about the past but says he can't remember when last a tax was removed in Qld. The Newman government he was a part of removed the waste levy. They literally trashed the state. There was a whole 4Corners episode on it. #qldpol www.abc.net.au/news/2017-08...

A 16-year-old girl in Illinois was raped and this POS judge threw out the conviction of her rapist. After 2 years, the Illinois Courts Commission has officially removed Robert Adrian from the bench. This scumbag can no longer abuse his power to help rapists.

How many more children must die without healthcare until our politicians admit that capitalism has been a resounding failure?

I want everyone to understand that JobSeeker in Australia is so low it is driving homelessness, anxiety, depression and exacerbating all health issues with the stress it causes. It is political will that keeps it so low. Currently Australia’s JobSeeker payment is the lowest in all OECD countries.

Random little-known fact: Alexander Graham Bell was a speech therapist who invented the telephone in part to see clients remotely I have tons of his materials and journals about it. Really interesting stuff

Any of us could, & probably has, made the same mistake. Are you 100% sure that every single person that you follow isn't some kind of scumbag who's good at concealing it? I'm sure not.

Imagine crucifying someone because they followed-back someone who had a similar job role in their profile, & wasn't suspicious enough to spend an hour researching them first to make sure that they weren't dodgy. Grow the fuck up, people.

Atilla died alone, and seemed to have no family. But a sex shop told a surprisingly different storyapple.news Atilla Demirer swiped in to his Sydney building in July 2021. There are no records of him leaving again before his body was found four months later. Was this just another case of fatal loneliness?

As well-meaning publishers try to navigate the coming storm of state laws against diversity, I hope they'll consider Timothy Snyder's Rule #1 (from his slim book ON TYRANNY).

Spot on! The haters found a spokesperson for their hate. Trump is the one.

They actually take PRIDE in what they’re doing! Traitors to America, democracy and our Constitution. Bigots and white privileged fascists.

Bluesky is kind of like a friendly little village where everyone knows each others names and business...as against Twitter which is like an abrasive big city which is exciting but you get jostled on the footpath, and crime and corruption are increasingly rampant under crooked malignant Mayor.

I miss having friends, I miss hugs, I miss laughing with people, connecting on a deeper level, etc.. Having #LongCovid and being covid cautious to the level I’m at is so lonely.. Putting yourself first is so isolating.

3 years on (wow can’t believe it!) I’m about 80% I used to run 3-5 miles, 4 or 5 days a week, now 2miles twice a week and I have to force myself to do that. It’s hard. It’s really hard. Luckily I’m self employed otherwise I would’ve prob been sacked for time off sick.
