Rep. James Talarico On Confronting Christian Nationalism, And Strange Days In The Texas Legislature
Watching this interview I'm reminded what a good Christian sounds like. Been a while since I've felt respect towards a public figure like this.
Others might not understand the connection, but this has me thinking about Father Bob.
Speaking as an agnostic... π

FMD!!! Tim Wilson wants higher interest rates on home loans! #auspol
Wilsonβs proposal would alter the way the nation dealt with the ups and downs in the economic cycle. It could lead to sharper spikes in interest rates that cause deeper downturns and more job losses.

ISTAND WITH
GRACE TAME! THE RED HEART
MOVEMENT
π· AustralianFemicideWatch.org
Grace Tame has spent yrs standing up to abusers, while supporting victims & survivors. She exchanged a safe, quiet existence for one of consequence & impact.
Right now she is being vilified by journalists, politicians, organisations.
I stand with Grace - I hope you'll stand with her too!

Great bunch of news stories this morning, telling us the system is working as designed.
1. Aged care system declines/delays assessments and provision of assistance sometimes long enough that people die waiting. 2. Pet insurance isnβt worth the cost in premiums. 3. AI steals your voice then your job.

The RBA's deputy governor will be interviewed by Guardian Australia's economics editor, Patrick Commins, for the Full Story podcast β and we want to ask him ...
Why do you bother posting this question & turn comments off? If you don't actually want questions submitted then remove this post... π

Feel like we need to talk about the fact that Tony Abbot on ABC 730 last night called for a reintroduction of the White Australia Policy.
And that in the next interview Tehan refused to disagree with what the former PM had said.

ABC News headline:
Muslim men had permission to pray before officers removed them from Sydney protest, police say
NSW Police admit the Muslim men had received police permission to pray during the Sydney protest before they were disrupted by officers!
Imagine the media outrage if this had been a Jewish group or a group of Catholic nuns! #SydneyProtest

Australian Census on University Staff Wellbeing results are out. Every uni recorded scores indicating high/very high psych risk.
And in news surprising no one, "only senior execs and deans rated their workplaces as medium or low risk while all other staff groups reported high-risk conditions."

Oh that's right in Australia our options can be opting for neither herpes or chlamydia...
They really are showing how pathetic they are & how they don't actually care about anyone beyond their echo chamber. They could be magnificent, but instead they just want to fall into line... π
