A question for Bishop Bird, of Ballarat, who instructed his lawyers to go all the way to High Court to avoid paying damages to a complainant of child sexual abuse on basis that priests arenโ€™t technically employed by his diocese:
Did your priests accept JobKeeper during COVID pandemic?
If so, why?

โ€œThe Carnation Revolution got its name from the fact that almost no shots were fired, and from restaurant worker Celeste Caeiro who offered carnations to soldiers when the population took to the streets to celebrate the end of the dictatorshipโ€

Read to the end on this one:

โ€œThis elderly gentleman was seated in a restaurant booth when server Dylan got ready to take his order.

The man apologized for not hearing too well. He was 91 and lost his hearing during the war. He had stories to tell and Dylan gave him his full attention.

Women need to be kept safe from the โ€˜your body, my choiceโ€™ peddlers. Hereโ€™s how | Van Badham Does self-protection have to mean rejecting men and sex and joining the 4B movement? Of course not โ€“ but it does mean recognising the power of cultural persuasion

Excellent column by @vanbadham.bsky.social 11 women killed in Australia in the last 16 days & people (& you know which people I mean) are hating on feminists? WTF? www.theguardian.com/society/comm...

If anyoneโ€™s looking for alternatives to GoodReads, I highly recommend StoryGraph. Itโ€™s owned by a black woman, and the platform is so much more accessible and easy to use.

Please, if you are able, support Independent bookshops.

They are the literary & social hubs of our high streets and communities.

Without their continued support, we simply wouldn't be around to publish .

Thank you.

Thanks for the post. Hilarious & sad at same time, how politics can interfere with friendships & break up families, thatโ€™s a political strategy..

Former soap star filmed doing Nazi salute at event far-right activists attended Former actor Damien Richardson is being investigated by Victoria Police after being filmed jokingly performing the Nazi salute at an event attended by some Neo-Nazis.

"I thought it was a war on Western tradition, Western values โ€ฆ and actually, it's an anti-white-male-agenda."
Neo-Nazisim has been around in Australia for some time & recruitment, particularly of young men, is growing. They are becoming bolder. #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2024-11...

It's been 24 hours since I ditched Twitter for good and been exclusively dating Bluesky, and I haven't seen one Hitler/Nazi apologetic post or any unexpected porn.

I like it here.
