So basically doesn't want to stock any book that might challenge and develop her opinions and beliefs. Is she removing religious books as well? I like to read stuff that I disagree with, that's how we learn

Scathing but true nonetheless, I brought in the colon to give it a chance, maybe boost its confidence, make it properly independent. But for two days in a row it failed, out of disgust I shall extract the key from each of my keyboards

I love how supporters of Israel pretty much just use the holocaust as an excuse for their attacks on Gaza. Just because genocide was committed against them doesn't give them license to do so on others. We need to stop kissing America's ass and stand up for what's right. We are no better than being a US territory at this point

For visitors from other instances there's also a thread going on over in !rage@aussie.zone

They talk alot about bracket creep, but why not introduce more brackets above $190k with up to 50% tax to deliver tax breaks to the lower brackets. The rich seem to benefit more from society so maybe they should pay their fair share

It's not as bad as it looks if you look into why he resigned from News

I was just thinking about posting this, looks like I missed out by 11 minutes

It's not Jews though, it's Israelis

Not just a former PM but also Minister of Health, Finance, Treasury, Home Affairs and Industry, Science, Energy and Resources.

The first PM to serve a full term since Howard also tried to circumvent our democracy. Don't let the door hit you on the way out

Not sure if that storm got Brisbane last night, but I'd never been happier to see a storm, it was so refreshing on Goldcoast

@trk@aussie.zone must have slept in as well

Yes, Australia Week

I was thinking 9th of May to commemorate the first sitting of the Australian Parliament

I prefer Argentinian megapickles for my photos

When I saw this article I thought "cry me a river" why not just pay people properly

The amount of fear mongering the deputy mayor tries to spread in that article is ridiculous. That dosage is not safe for people who can't think critically

Strayaaaaaaaaa!

Likely to be imessage - still though you would expect in a supposedly "first world" country that there would be a good internet connection everywhere. Unfortunately, it isn't seen as the essential service it has now become

Lots of storms and extreme weather events have been blamed on Climate Change recently and it's tempting to believe that this is just a trend to try and prove Climate Change. And look, that's not an illogical position for someone who doesn't understand much science. Climate Change has been in action much longer than you've been alive, it's just now that we're talking about it because of how much we now know and how big the threat is.

Merry Christmas everyone!
