Have we reached peak dysfunction?! The NACC handed $1.1M to MA Services - the firm running a Nauru security operation linked with the Finks bikie gang. They're also guarding the ACIC who are literally tasked with taking down bikie gangs🤯

Another stunning bloom by Christian Bedard, Fun in the Sun™ is a pollinator-friendly, apricot delight featuring creamy yellow and pink-tipped buds opening to beautiful, fruit-scented apricot blooms on long, strong stems. The matte foliage creates the perfect backdrop for her rich, desert tones.

The Greens have secured enviro laws with new protections for native forests & stopped Labor from fast-tracking coal & gas.
We’ve got outcomes that forest campaigners have fought for across decades.
We’ve made it harder for big corporations to keep wrecking our environment.

is an opening onto the only lasting and
authentic access we can have to other people,
to the otherness that is in us, and in others,
like the shadow cast by a star, solar and kindly.

When done the journey of her nightly race,
Had found him sleeping, and supplied his place.’
