Art is more accessible than ever, but because we live in a world of production, where production and profit is all that is valued, we have countless stories that will never be told. The indie animation and game development scenes bring some hope back though. but yeah anyways, would love thoughts

Honestly, I'd like to hear other's thoughts on this, as somebody who is studying in STEM, I feel like one of the saddest things about society is the fact that art and philosophy and creation is so undervalued, everything is about production and there is little room for creation #art #philosophy

Peter Dutton is a disgrace to australia. He only serves himself and oligarchs like Gina. An australian prime minister when faced with the betrayal of an ally shouldn’t be scoring points over the opposition. They should rally against that threat. Dutton is unfit for office and would be bad.

#auspol Peter Dutton and the liberals do not represent you they are liars who serve only themselves. They will hurt australian’s. They have voted against nearly every cost of living measure labor has put forward. I implore you to preference labor over the LNP vote for greens as 1st pref as well.

Exactly! Fixing 9 years of bullshit and purposeful sabotage takes time, is labor perfect? Far from it. But at least relative to the coalition they care. Plus on top of having to fix 9 years of garbage they get hit by international inflation and economic turmoil and are expected to fix it all.

Why the fuck do Australians have such short memory, mate, do you not fucking remember the shitshow that was abbott turnbull and scumo. Dutton is at abbott levels or worse, LNP has been in power 50/75 years. Yet everything is labor’s fault, if you vote LNP just admit you are racist

Reminder to make sure you understand how preferential voting works, dont like labor, but dont want dutton in? Simply preference labor over the coalition. This applies to first time voters especially. #auspol

You can’t throw your vote away by voting third party in aus.

If you have queer friends or relatives, Dutton is a risk to you
If you are part of a union, Dutton is a risk to you.
If you are indigenous, Dutton is a risk to you.

The coalition is run by the same crooks as it was when we gave them the boot. only now they are emboldened to spew hate.

I think it is important to have discussions with family and friends about the upcoming federal election, if Dutton gets in, unless you are Gina things will get worse for you, and for others, if you have family working in public jobs, or reliant on NDIS payments, Dutton is a risk to you. #auspol

Dutton refusing to detail which public service jobs he wants to cut is worrying, Australians deserve to be informed prior to the election. Dutton evidently cares little for the truth and he cannot be trusted. In his own words "If you don't know vote no"

100%, i think him and gaston are definitely the most evil disney villains, and i agree with you that the fact that they both display a real or multiple real forms of evil adds to that effect.

Meta is still going to censor queer people and Palestinian activists or sex workers and left wing speech in general , they are a corporation, an evil one at that , this just means they have opened the floodgates to bigotry and hate speech.

One of my friends just released a game a bit ago on to steam, and it is an enjoyable point ad click adventure game. And honestly I enjoyed it.

The deaths caused by corporations and their leaders under the guise of "the cost of doing business" need to be answered for. if the NYPD is looking for murderers, the CEOs of every private health insurance provider are right there.

People need to try Sheepy: A Short Adventure, it is free on steam and takes an hour or so to beat, but my god, it was an amazing hour.

What should this creature be called,
This creature burrows into hollow trees and hides in forests, encountering one is told to bring good fortune, harming one brings bad luck. These creatures enjoy a symbiotic relationship with plants and contribute to pollination

Remembering those murdered for trying to live as themselves.

This has been an ugly year for the LGBTQ+ community, but particularly for our trans brothers and sisters. May the world wake up from their transphobia and hold those in power accountable.
