Attention fellow AUSTRALIANS! πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί

We now have an official petition to parliament to STOP MASTERCARD and VISA from its campaign of censorship, restricting what legal products we can buy.

Please sign it now, and if you're not an Aussie, spread the word!

I call on the Australian government to #RaiseTheRate of all support payments to a living wage.
This would be the single most effective way to lift the productivity, quality of life, and well-being of the whole country.

C is now 16.5, she’s got 60ish hours logged . It’s a bit weird being the supervisor, thinking about how my parents might have felt (mumble) years ago.

I think that’s a vibrant and fluid picture - difficult to do but imo your pic is excellent

That looks like new to me, awesome!

I’ve often wondered how much effort it would be to go to a waxed drivetrain setup. Did you need to acquire any more tools in order to do it? Also if you’ve got a guide you’d be happy to recommend I’d be grateful.

Exclusive: NDIA chief intervened to throw advocate off scheme Internal emails show the National Disability Insurance Agency rushed to withdraw access for a disabled person whose funding was criticised on talkback radio, only to reinstate it 10 months later.

The # of cases going to ART is incredible, the amount of money being spent defending against appeals is horrendous, the # of times NDIA folds .... ridiculous.

The move to quarterly plan payments means participants will not get the support they need and providers will refuse to service them

This piece by @squigglyrick.bsky.social is incredibly well researched and written.

I believe this can only be the tip of the iceberg.

Please please *please* dig deeper into this. There are *so many* horrible things the NDIA is doing, to participants and providers.

#RoboNDIS is a term that has been used from time to time.

If only Queensland would make the same decision 😑. Instead we’ve got a bunch of arseholes who think locking up kids (who should be in primary school and given more support) is a grand plan

How many streets have their lowest number = 7

In AU at least it’s an interesting number

That’s very rude of your colleagues. I bet they didn’t bring enough to share, either.

I believe you might need a retort if some form

Manual #wheelchair users, how often are you replacing bearings? What else is wearing out? What brands (of parts) are working for you?

(boost please!)
