Science, politics and sustainability. Also pugs
Snap! I was thinking exactly this earlier today when a really old friend was talking and made me realise how far we have grown apart, that I need more good people I share values with in my life.
Him defending the Vic nazis as "just standing up for immigration" & so on. No time for that shit.

Feeling uncontrollably shitty for a while, followed by a period of feeling empty inside.
Similar age, same but different life changing 2025 for me. No advice except don't forget to take care of yourself, keep fighting like hell, and don't lose faith in you. Karma comes back around. You got this 💪

Me: yep, between sometime just after the dinosaurs and when you're nan was a baby and everything was in black and white, just like the old TV shows...

A sad and tragic indictment on the male of the species, but no surprises considering the web was first used to send porn and crap like fb was created to rate the females on campus.
We 100% must have some sort of regulation on this. France have begun.

Good call! I call on the govt to tax & regulate huge o/s based corps to allow Australians to have nice things with a decent environment to enjoy them in.

You've done a good thing. I reckon ill be found on the floor after a month or two and taken to the tip with all my stuff some government agency clears out.

Must be a big first step off the ledge for the first time. Looking happy and confident 🙂

We may not be able to stop the Russian bots directly, but we could stop that rubbish being pushed on us all while removing things gambling ads. Crap is out there like everything on the net but is much nicer when that shite isn't thrust on us.

Fatalism personified. The government *could* say to these companies that if they want to operate and presumably make lots of $$$ here, that they must fix algorithms or piss off. Those complying will operate & still make $$$ but the others can disappear. Legislate the bad operators out of existence.

It really is fantastic watching the Albonator & team in action;
1. Albo the other day re: US visa changes - well they're a sovereign nation making their own decisions.
2. Albo the other day re: pollie rorts - well these are just rules implemented by previous govts so not our prob, Bob
Pathetic! 🙃

Yes socials can be harmful for young people, but they're currently harmful for everyone.
Our fearful leader prefers capitulation to power instead of truth and spins his media pr worse than scomo.
This current government is bloody shameful #auspol

Mate, parent here who thinks these changes are a steaming, stinking crock.
Why doesn't Albo instead force socials to fix toxic algorithms & ban disinformation bots that push racist, misogynistic A Tate bs on boys and the gotta get enhanced crap on girls? Ban gambling advertising, spam/scam fb ads?

Sick person here. Just checked & no difference at all for me. Most costly script (not listed on pbs) runs at $58 per month & won't change.
May the karma coming the ALPs way be everything you deserve. Public health is broken, kiss my arse with your platitudes. #auspol

Please don't forget to include the FOI changes, creation of a knackered NACC and punching down on the vulnerable in the community. The Albanese/Marles govt are Capital L "Liberals" through and through...

Now you've gone and made me dream of a Trump vs the Rock, no holds barred cage match. 😂
