As long as you are dancing, you can break the rules.

Sometimes breaking the rules is just extending the rules.

Sometimes there are no rules.

This is an incredible concept, thank you for sharing. Now I'm off to check in with all my species....

Marc, this feels dangerously close to gaslighting. TPM have dealt with way more shit in that house of snakes than anyone else. They weren't absent today, they were using their time strategically to get the real work done - holding the line against this bullshit "govt".
Pull your head in, buddy.

Not to get all Marxist Feminist on you (she says disingenuously as I am totally doing that): all the unpaid household caring labour we do drags down the wages for the external caring labour we do. If you pay nothing for household labour you can justify paying nearly nothing for outsourced care work

The formula industry is worth billions globally.

The breast milk industry doesn't exist. Instead, there is a community of people who produce breastmilk and then find ways to make it freely available to babies that need it.

From each according to their means, to each according to their needs.

Breast milk is an amazing example.

If a lactating person hears someone else's baby crying, generally, their first thought is "gimme that baby and I'll feed them."

It's never "I bet I could get them to pay heaps for a bottle of breast milk"

Vote be buggered. We no longer have the time OR the money!
We need to have a general strike & force the Gov. Gen. to call a snap election.
It should've been done months ago.
Now is the time or we'll end up with the same living conditions as UK/ US. The 'haves' are fine, the 'have-nots' are fucked!
