Thank you for following me, if I haven't followed you back I probably will when we get to know each other a bit.
I'm a lawyer and activist. I post stuff about things I think are important or interesting, and sometimes make 'hilarious' jokes.

Australia developed the first HPV vaccine and led the world in making it universal, first for girls and later for kids of all genders. Now we are reaping the rewards of good health policy.

So Labor and the Liberals teamed up to pass legislation to give police the power to recommend cancellation of Centrelink payments of people who have not been found guilty of a crime by a court of law. It’s discriminatory financial punishment of people in poverty who are already over-policed

NEWS: During a hearing in federal court in VA, prosecutors confirmed that the operative indictment in the case against James Comey was never shown to or voted on by the entire grand jury before it was presented in open court.
Defense counsel argued that’s a complete bar to further prosecution

The HHS report on gender affirming care released it's updated report showing they stacked its authors with anti-trans hate-group affiliated members, several of whom aren't even doctors with any sort of clinical experience. They selected their own ideologically friendly peer reviewers.

As private schools keep jacking up their prices, it's a great time to end their obscene GST exemption. Or eradicate them entirely, but at least we should end the GST gift.

Welcome to the era of the $50,000 annual school fee
While some private schools are still sitting on their fee increases for 2026, parents should expect an average fee hike of 7 per cent next year.

"Israel increasingly looked to negate that advantage by destroying the natural environment... using catapults to lob incendiary devices into the forested areas to burn them down. The deliberate destruction of the natural environment can also be called “ecocide”and Israel is no stranger to such acts"
It is often forgotten, but Israel has been dropping bombs on Lebanon since October 8, 2023. I take a brief look at that forgotten front, where Israel has killed thousands of Lebanese civilians. Using recent Google Earth images, I discuss the war in southern Lebanon.

![[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]
JANET:

Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?

LIZ:
Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine

LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!
JANET:

Shut up
LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow
From opening the bag of peas
to boiling the peas
to eating the peas
To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.
