“We’re taking this to court”: Doctors Are Fighting New Zealand’s Puberty Blocker Ban

ARC says they’ll announce DECRA and LIEF outcomes tomorrow (Tuesday 25th Nov).
In recent times these announcements have been around 11am Canberra time. With 2 schemes on the same day, I assume they’ll announce one of them later in the day (probably DECRA first).

I need you all to remember this as well...that bluesky actively assisted in ethnically cleansing Palestinians
Just saw 2 Palestinian accounts vanish right after asking me for help--one a mother grieving her baby daughter who just died of starvation, another begging for help to keep her little sick, starving baby daughter alive. I cannot say what I think of Bluesky admin.

This is pretty much all we get from the media, a constant message of how extreme we are for wanting Australia to stop breaching international law and actually sanction Israel which is carrying out daily massacres and starving kids to death. None of our many other policies are mentioned.
Here's another example. Media is addicted to getting people who hate the Greens to exclusively be their commentators on it. No wonder they can't convince anyone <40 (who, by the way, support the Greens in big numbers!) to read them.

It’s a very dark reflection on the state of Australian politics that Labor (including Albanese) seem more satisfied with defeating Bandt than Dutton.
Progressive voters are tricking themselves into thinking this election was a great result, but Australia’s centre of gravity keeps going right.
