Jesus fuck. We desperately need universal healthcare. We should pressure our reps to pass universal healthcare since they fucked us with the ACA and healthcare subsidies.

How come ‘tough on crime’ policies are never tough on the actual criminals?
So kids can be trialled and jailed like adults, but this nazi gets bail?

There were cops present, watching & listening to the nazis as they broke laws around hate speech & inciting hate. Were they instructed not to intervene .... with bats, pepper spray & arrests .... like they do with climate change or anti genocide protesters??
What instructions were they given ??

Excerpt from IGN's review of new F2P Wuxia-themed MMO Where Winds Meet.
It's meant as criticism of the combat, but it's also an accurate description of boss fights in Elden Ring and Soulslikes.

One of the reasons that print media is struggling is that it is not trusted. Too many ignorant opinions & not enough facts.
Here’s the NYT App landing page. Guess who else is in the files? The NYT.
The files are a wake up call on establishment behaviour.

Reminder that Pizzagate originated from 4chan getting a hold of the John Podesta emails and believing that he and people he corresponded with were using code THAT 4CHAN USERS THEMSELVES HAD CREATED TO DISCUSS THEIR OWN CSAM CONSUMPTION.
Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes.
Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

Plenty of criticism for Albo, but this is a classic example of the huge messes that Liberal governments leave.
They cost $billions to clean up, plus the Liberals have raided the piggy bank and cut taxes.
That's why ALP has to tax the rich, companies and property more.

‘The Albanese govt’s one-off decision to wipe 20% off student debt will cut $5,520 from the average graduate debt of $27,600… akin to addressing the housing crisis by paying off 20% of every current mortgage without doing anything to reduce the cost of housing.’

How did Australian universities go from free education to $50,000 arts degrees in 50 years?
Thanks to the Job Ready Graduates scheme, an arts degree today will cost over $50,000. How have five decades of government policy taken us from free education to this?

Now that tariffs have made US videogame prices equivalent to what Australians have been paying for decades, it's interesting to see a marked uptick in US game reviews that conclude with "Is the game worth it at full price? Hell naw"
