I have long said people don't be hatin Chief Justice John Roberts as much as they should be hatin Chief Justice John Roberts
“Roberts has been embedding white-dominant authoritarianism into the country’s source code for two decades. It’s impossible to imagine today’s crisis without the Roberts court having first undermined the foundations of our democracy.”

Quite obvious that @albomp.bsky.social Govt stuffed up NDIS & Support at Home Program for seniors by outsourcing govt service delivery to a plethora of price-gouging private sector outfits who are bleeding these programs dry.
All service delivery should be effected by govt employees only

@albomp.bsky.social why are you destroying science in Australia? #SaveCSIRO
Whiteanting like an Abbott , Albanese Gov continues to cut the already chronically underfunded CSIRO to use taxpayers money to prop up mining's almost obsolete smelters & steelworks jobs. We're friends of science, Albo mealymouthed, but even more friendly with miners.

Watching the Epstein survivor admit that she voted for Trump really fucked with my head. The brainwashing against the left that apparently people endure from birth, must be way deeper than I ever imagined. A victim voting for a rapist, who has also been accused by 26 other women? Over a woman? WTAF?

The ban is bad policy and it's clear not enough has been done to prepare young people and their families about what is about to happen. Where are the education packages and support that were promised? Just telling kids to log off and go touch grass is not going to cut it!
