One thing I'm fucken sick of hearing is that people on the poverty line "don't want handouts."

Well, the rich take hand outs. Maybe they're rich bc they were offered handouts. Maybe they're rich bc they take them.

This "shame in receiving free money" for the poor but not the rich makes me SO MAD

10 people died after welfare payments wrongly cut off due to IT bugs in employment services system, discovered then ignored for 3 years. Ombo investigating. Govt won't turn off 'penalty zone' because private job agencies would lose profit briefings reveal. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/politic...

watching some garbage zoomer horror called Y2K and they all started singing the Thong Song at a NYE house party, a song that didn’t enter the charts until February 2000, and I’ve gotten so mad I had to leave the room

Just 10% left for Mona to raise! If 177 of you donated $29 each, she’d be done and could rest, secure in knowing she’ll be able to get her family out of Gaza when the border crossing opens. And if you send me a screenshot of your donation, I will make you a thank you cat video!
