In estimates today the Department confessed to me that older people are having their My Aged Care data stolen by providers for use in sales calls.

This is aged care under Labor: jacking up out-of-pocket costs then letting telemarketers loose to gouge vulnerable people even more.

Awesome to have voted out the party that loudly gives no shits about the environment and climate in favour of the part that quietly gives no shits about the environment and climate
“The environment minister wants to pass a major re-write of federal nature laws this year, encouraging miners to lobby the Coalition to work with Labor to help rush it through parliament in the final three sitting weeks”

When I was studying food safety programs as a non American I was surprised to learn that with most Ag chem and production California has more restrictions and is a tougher system than the EU
A LOT of people do not want to hear it but in the United States at least, food has never been safer to eat, not to mention tastier
We are living in one of the few times in human history where you can buy a loaf of bread and if it says it’s made with wheat flour and salt and yeast and water and nothing else, it’s probably made from just those ingredients, and some people want to END this.

On this day 80 years ago, Benito Mussolini was executed by an Italian partisan in Giulino di Mezzegra, then hung from the Piazzale Loreto in Milan the following day.

Happy Mussolini Execution Day to all who celebrate.

My hot take is the mass casualisation of the work force is the main reason so few people understand the value and importance of expertise, knowledge, and craftsmanship.
