SENATE: Labor is ahead to claim the sixth spot in four states, with One Nation up in Queensland and the Lambie Network up in Tasmania (although no final calls are made yet)

One Nation could still win the final seat in several states, and Legalise Cannabis is optimistic about WA

Hanson getting so much free press for a how to vote decision that made no actual difference since they were already putting the Coalition ahead of Labor and anyone else competitive in those seats. Press pack outsmarted by Pauline Hanson what a time to be alive.

Change really is possible.

In minority government, the Greens will push for dental into Medicare, a cap on rents, wiping all student debt and so much more.

We can't keep voting for the same two parties and expecting change.

This election, vote for it. Vote 1 Greens.

This week, Arizona State University removed all references to transgender, intersex, questioning, and asexual people on its website.

Arizona State has officially kowtowed to Trump's genocidal warpath against the LGBTQIA+ community. Just gross!

Actually there are other problems with optional preferential voting. If you want to vote but don't like preferencing either of the majors then my recommendation is to randomise them.

#Asexual people have always existed. But in a world obsessed with sex, their existence gets continually erased — sometimes through silence, sometimes through mockery, and sometimes through loud and proud ignorance.

Flurry of internal seat poll claims re Dickson:

* LNP claims to be ahead 57-43 (Freshwater)
* Labor claims 50-50
* Smith (IND) claims ALP ahead 51.7-48.3 (uComms)

All internal seat poll claims should be treated with extreme caution.

Right now, we have an authoritarian president.

He called CNN "illegal." He is trying to encroach on the spending powers of Congress. He is going after the courts.

Trump does not respect our Constitution. He just wants more and more power for himself.

💜 A new study has found high levels of intolerance and ignorance towards the asexual community among young people, and conclude that the community is facing prejudice at greater levels than most other groups in society

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

Putin can’t believe his luck. Here is Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov on Trump: “The new administration is fast changing all foreign policy configurations…This coincides with our vision in many ways.”

Trump now backs dictatorship, not democracy. We cannot allow that to stand.

NO. At a time of massive income and wealth inequality we should not be giving tax breaks to billionaires. We should demand that they start paying their fair share.

Anyone can be shamed for not having/wanting sex.

It’s just more obvious when we focus on asexuality.

Yep, a huge number of ppl don't know what asexuality is at all, including therapists, queer researchers/academics etc.

When I wrote my novel, to show how it feels to be (a few different kinds of) asexual, this is why I included a bit more pedagogical content than I would have liked.
I'm so proud to share my first asexuality research paper with @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social as their Visiting Fellow! We investigate public attitudes towards asexual people, unearthing some concerning (and some hopeful) findings! 💜🤍

Given the actions taken by both the US Administration and the UK Health Secretary, it is important to remember that the #LGBTQIA+ community is one community with an inextricably linked history.

It is not LGB History Month. It is not Gay History Month. It is #LGBTHistoryMonth (in the UK right now).
