What revolution? All the Americans willing to take arms are still waiting for Revelation.

Clearly he's never read The Great Gatsby.

I like to snap them straight from the ground and eat them raw. They're very sweet and not woody like the supermarket ones. I'm not currently growing any, though.

So sorry to hear this, M 😞 I'm guessing it's not the multifocals this time.

😭

I meant "mutuals" feed, not followers (same diff).

Gosh, haven't heard of Mango in a long time! Bluesky is my jankiest app. Yesterday it wouldn't load my followers feed at all and today it just stops after about 20 posts with no option to scroll back further. This is a frequent occurrence.

Yes!!

I just got back from Japan where we would catch the local train a few minutes walk from our hotel to the main train line a 10 minute walk from our hotel 😂 (Only because there was so much more walking to be done each day.) It's a very healthy way to live.

Perhaps his mother took too much paracetemol while she was pregnant with him 😂

In my electorate, a single issue candidate who ran for the first time took 18.76% of the vote.

It's not just the US part of AUKUS we need to distance ourselves from. If Australia was a Republic when Whitlam was in power we could have successfully booted the US out of Pine Gap. We've been letting the UK and the US dictate Australian politics for far too long.

Sickening, heartbreaking, and maddening.

Ugh

The wastewater data for COVID in some states is horrifying. In Texas they estimate 1 in 18 people are actively infectious.

They're riddled with Tuberculosis at the moment, too. Not to mention COVID and bird flu.

Does twink mean something different in this context?

I think you're all taking me a little too literally. It was a joke. I'm well aware that they don't know and don't care.

My mantra today is "don't get involved"

My mantra today has been "don't get involved"

How do they know the killer's motive? The man hasn't even been identified. Could be a disgruntled ex lover.

Being an Aboriginal man, they probably don't view him as a working person in the first place. White cis male pedophiles, on the other hand, are always just going through a difficult time.

That's not even equivalent to 4 years salary at minimum wage today

News I actually care about

Interesting that they didn't place marriage before children.

I know it's not the same as being issued a debt of tens of thousands of dollars, but the fact is the system is still automated and false debts are issued all the time, with the client expected to prove them false. The system is so broken I had to stop my payments and live off savings.

You used to report the income you earned during the reporting period, but they changed it to the income you received. This means any time my employer paid me late, which was basically always, an automated debt was generated and it took weeks to months to refute it.

I don't understand why robodebt is spoken about like a single incident from 2020. They're absolutely still issuing automated debts to people. I received one a few years back and had to prove it was false. If anything it's gotten worse since they change the way you report income.
