I’m enraged. We are being represented by heartless ghouls.
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

How ludicrous for Labor to cut $5 billion in public services during a cost of living crisis. Every six months the government pays around $5b in Fuel Tax Credits to mining corporations to burn fossil fuels. If Labor is going to cut spending, cut handouts to fossil fuel barons.

i think tech and ai positive people are going to be in for a big shock when anti tech and anti ai sentiment becomes a major part of leftwing politics going forward especially as datacenters continue to destroy communities and raise electricity bills
Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance?

The women’s safety sector is not asking for sentiment. We are not asking for symbolic gestures. We are asking for governments to fund the solutions they already know will work the solutions they have commissioned, piloted, evaluated, and endorsed.

Again, I suggest you consult a medical professional and then go get all your vaccines and boosters up to date. Two to consider: measles (have your titers checked, especially if you were vaccinated more than 45 years ago) & TDAP (the P stands for pertussis—aka whooping cough). Why? 👇

It is time for all Americans to ask, which preventable disease do you want to kill your parents? Your kids? You?
Get your vaccines up to date. All of them. And because so many will ignore this advice, wear a quality mask/respirator inside public spaces.
This ain’t a drill.

I repeat, RFK Jr doesn’t have to say “I’m banning vaccines” to effectively ban vaccines. Exhibit umpteen hundred and sixteen (this happened the same day they appointed the anti-vaxxing snake-oil salesman above as deputy CDC head):
The CDC has turned off its vaccine search tool.
The vaccines.gov site now gives an error when you enter a valid zip code.
They also removed text saying “Vaccines can help you stay healthy” and added a banner saying the site is being updated.

This sure seems like a deliberate choice to dare Boasberg into trying to do something against Noem, which they expect would get slapped down.
"insofar as the Court has inquired into the identities of the decisionmaking officials for purposes of making a potential criminal referral, the actions were taken by DHS (through Secretary Noem) after being formally advised about compliance with this Court’s order" by both DHS and DOJ counsel.
![Accordingly, the Government maintains that its actions did not violate the Court’s
order—certainly not with the clarity required for criminal contempt—and no further proceedings
are warranted or appropriate. Indeed, the mere fact that Judge Katsas agreed with Defendants’
interpretation of the TRO means that the order could not have been so “clear and decisive” that it
left “no doubt about what it require[d] to be done,” as criminal contempt requires. United States
v. Joyce, 498 F.2d 592, 596 (7th Cir. 1974); see also Ford v. Kammerer, 450 F.2d 279, 280 (3d Cir.
1971) (“long-standing, salutary rule in contempt cases is that ambiguities and omissions in orders
redound to the benefit of the person charged with contempt”); United States ex rel. Yelverton v.
Fed. Ins. Co., 831 F.3d 585, 587 (D.C. Cir. 2016) (same).
10. Nevertheless, insofar as the Court has inquired into the identities of the decisionmaking officials for purposes of making a potential criminal referral, the actions were taken by
DHS (through Secretary Noem) after being formally advised about compliance with this Court’s
order both by DOJ leadership and the Acting General Counsel of DHS.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qqdqgzpqwyho4cxzso62m54q/bafkreieabw7jaju4xufouskydmfdiwrac2pwmdl6rc24ecurqwvnxsgngi@jpeg)

The first official confirmation that Noem herself made the decision not to turn the planes around. A couple hundred men were tortured as a result — and soon after, the Supreme Court confirmed that the Trump admin’s Alien Enemies Act process was a total violation of due process.
BREAKING:
“After receiving that legal advice, Secretary Noem directed that the AEA detainees who had been removed from the United States before the Court’s order could be transferred to the custody of El Salvador. “

In a new doctrinal note, Pope Leo and the Vatican sharply reject polygamy and growing Western polyamory, praising monogamy as an exclusive union between one man and one woman.

This is exactly how my grandmother wrote her recipes and now I follow them every year for holiday meals and do not add a single clarification. Comes out right every time.
One of them calls for a cup of sugar but what she meant was a specific drinking cup she used to have that is long, long lost.

Hubs and I are trying to write down our favorite recipes. The problem? Our measurements are completely arbitrary. "Add cinnamon till it looks like vanilla bean ice cream" "two things of tiny tomatoes" "add dill till you can't see cream cheese underneath" sorry to anyone else trying to cook these
