Wouldn't it be nice if there was a reverse rapture day? Where everyone evil is sucked down into hell? Wouldn't that be nice?

Beautiful shot👍
Meanjin isn't viable, but meanwhile this manages to garner "generous contribution" ... www.robertmenziesinstitute.org.au/about/
Joe Walsh reporting that Trumps plan is to overthrow midterms and general and he is NOT leaving the WH. He has put an election denier in charge of election integrity. This is fucking serious people. There is NO MORE democracy. If we don’t fight now it’s gone for good. Please people, just fight!
About time. May his retirement from publ8c life be the misery he inflicted on others.
While GST is mildly regressive, combined with a progressive income tax, it can be part of a progressive tax system. Just like a healthy breakfast with Coco Pops ™. 4/4

Take another minute to look at this beautiful sight. It's the best thing you're going to see all day. #FreeGaza.
Can he turn back or arrest all of them?

Fuck me, at the 70th Anniversary the LNP sent a fucking minister "Many foreign dignitaries attended, although few major world leaders, former wartime allies, were present. They included: Minister for Veterans' Affairs Michael Ronaldson of Australia;"
For Australia, China is far and away a safer bet in terms of trade and diplomacy. Regardless of what one thinks of Albanese, he has done supreme work in repairing the relationship between our two nations. Our future lies with Asia - not America. #auspol

This is how despotism establishes itself - keep pushing and pushing until the legal barriers to what you want fall over.
So what do I do? Change to Bing???
No words.🤬
The complicity of major tech companies in the genocide in Gaza is unprecedented and shameful
I think Australia already is. Quietly, and with no loud hailers.The ducks are paddling furiously below the surface.
On the contrary, Daniel Andrews' presence in China is a diplomatic master stroke. The fact is - the American century is over. Trump's US is a failing state & the future of global stability lies elsewhere. Australia would do well to re-align itself & quickly. #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...
This 🧵. "given the work Advance did to turn Australia against First Peoples over The Voice, one might imagine people in those circles shrugging off violent attacks on Indigenous women. We’re all waiting for #Auspol Antisemitism Envoy to show us we are misreading her silence as acceptance."
Well speak up Ali, for the things you know are right, and that will help your community and others. Just do your best, and know there are so many out here thrilled for you.
'Winning Dickson was highly unlikely and, to some, an insurmountable mountain. With the very, very best Labor Party branch members, it took seven years to climb as a single mum with one leg, battling one of the most prolific politicians of our time.'
So frustrating all round. A lack of comprehension of the scale and complexity of the situation by a lot of well meaning people. Many more nurses required, as they've mandated them in nursing homes now as well.
We have a family member on a lev 4 package. He has several services, cleaning, wound care, podiatrist etc. The people are lovely & very kind. All immigrants. Where would we be without them?
I don't think they know the level of care required, until there has been an assessment. Or have I missed something? Have all those on the waiting list been assessed already?
Yep. The TAFE courses take time. It's a long term project. Lack of foresight re the coming baby boomer cohort was so negligent. The workers aren't just people who pop in & say hello, they need the requisite skills. It enrages me.
Yes, me too.
It’s a risk I’m willing to take.
Yes. The packages require a much larger workforce. The govt has been implementing free training TAFE courses, but it takes time. I don't think people stop to think about the logistics. Suitably qualified people have to be found to do the assessments as well.
How will agencies now find staff to work on these new packages? Great they're about to be implemented. But can they be? What about rural areas? Approval is just the start.
They've hidden long enough. The threats aren't enough to keep them silent anymore. That's some powerful stuff.
As a survivor, I can't think of a more fitting metaphor than a rapist creating loud noises with planes as a survivor tries to tell her story. I mean... just wow. Nevertheless, she persisted.

Deadline: #TheVoiceOfHindRajab star Motaz Malhees holds up a Palestinian flag during the 23-minute-plus ovation for the film in Venice, and the crowd chants, “Free Palestine”.
Great work Ed. You are amazing. The best thing Albo did, was to set you free.
finally someone in Parliament said it. I am not the only one who noticed that Abbott-era bipartisan hysteria over Australians fighting with ISIS has until now been matched by complete crickets on Australians joining genocidal Israeli occupation forces. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

Jacinta NP doesn't do subtlety does she. Just opens her mouth and let's it run😳
Isn't she strange😳🤷♀️
Reclaim the flag from who? The British. Divisive grifter Jacinta Price who hates her heritage as much as Beirut Bob Katter hates being Lebanese wants to “reclaim the flag” & demands the prime minister remove the First Nations flags. #auspol #abc730
Yep. And to think, she was on the brink of running the ABC China bureau. I think she's far too brash for the Chinese
I agree. She picked the wrong target with Bob Carr🙄

Whoever writes these isn't getting paid enough "She is slow and burps a lot" had me reeling 😂
He's repulsive. Make him go away🤮
Great work Ed!!! What's Jacinta NP going on about. Standing in front of the Australian flag, and those of the FN & Torres st I people doesn't in any way criminalise or desecrate the Australian flag. What a loony moron she is. She must be getting paid well by someone to say that shit.
"Those rallies were whipped up by far-right extremists and neo-Nazis. A lot of people were warned about that. I am not in the business of doing ‘there are good people on both sides’ argument... In particular, I haven’t seen a good fascist yet." 💥👏👏👏 #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
"...13 Palestinians, including 3 children, died within 24 hours due to malnutrition caused by #Israel ’s starvation policy. ...total number of famine-related deaths since the start of Israel’s genocide on #Gaza has reached 361, including 130 children." english.palinfo.com/news/2025/09... #News

I've seen ABC refer to the Nazi rallies as "anti mass immigration rallies" over and over, exactly what Nazis want labelled as, legitimising them. In contrast, not once have I heard the Palestine rallies called anti-genocide or anti-colonial. I wonder what that's about 🙄
"Why are drones tracking the flotilla to Gaza? It’s been just over 24hrs since leaving Barcelona, and it appears we’re already being watched. It’s unclear by who."
That's because there's no Big Railroad Lobby in the US stuffing the pockets of politicians and hasn't been for the last sixty to seventy years.

Yet another journalist killed by #Israel in occupied #Palestine 's #Gaza, 3rd in September: "Journalist&broadcast engineer Ayman Haniyeh was killed by an Israeli airstrike that targeted him near the Jordanian Hospital in #Gaza Tuesday evening." imemc.org/article/gaza... via @opheliapg.bsky.social

Australian Greens co-founder Drew Hutton takes party to court in bid to reinstate life membership
True, it's embarrassing. Katter hasn't turned up for work either, again, as far as I can see.
The lack of relevance of the coalition is destroying them. They seem to have nothing which amounts to “us” as an entity. So every “would be” seeks to stand out in the sea of mediocrity. And all we see is their inherent mediocre selves.
💔💔💔💔 there are no words to describe this horror.
"Photojournalist Rasmi Jihad Salem, was killed in an Israeli strike on Abu Al-Amin Street, near Al-Jalaa Square in Gaza City."
💔💔💔💔
"This follows the assassination, earlier on Tuesday, of journalist Iman Al-Zamli in Gaza."
The Bish making hay for as long as she can keep a grip on the job. Totally shameless.

3 days after Nazi violence on Melbourne’s streets, those concerned about “social cohesion” are still not speaking out. Jill Segal remains silent. Is she sympathetic to husband’s donations to Advance after all? Advance disdains First Peoples’ lives & rights. Bashing Indigenous women is ok? #Auspol
It's totally giving me the shits. Our msm is fucked.
Words always matter
My sister’s package was organised from a metro hospital . She has a fantastic service from local country carers. She is aware of restructuring in Nov and changes. How informed are the LNP, Indis and Greens of changes in Nov and the complexities of existing infrastructure and staff shortages
Yep. I think that's why they're delaying new packages a bit. The existing packages will be grandfathered, & many of the perks won't be in the new ones, i.e new bathrooms, aircon etc provided. The items claimed were outrageous & unsustainable.. They have to pare it down a bit, to do more claims.
Pocock could look at the big picture . Under LNP wait times for emergency ACAT assessments blew out from 48 hrs to 6 weeks and routine from 6 weeks to 18 months. Greedy private providers creamed the $$ on executives and advertising . Package time wait blew out to 3 yrs. Over servicing continues
