This is truly horrific. I urge you to read this statement, even if it is a lot to take in. Please pay attention to what is happening.
As with robodebt, welfare recipients have been screaming for years about the harm caused by "mutual" obligations, and the dominoes are finally starting to fall.

Today the employment department has publicly revealed shocking revelations that they've made 100s of 1000s of potentially unlawful decisions to cut people's Centrelink payment since at least 2020.
It's completely untenable to continue this system of punishment.

Actually hilarious being targeted by the head of an organisation for speaking out when a large majority of people are coming to me in confidence (because they feel unsafe expressing publicly) thanking me for doing exactly that. Speaks for itself really.

Chat, is it wrong to express to a company that you're upset at them for *checks notes* suddenly doubling all of their prices overnight after being static for over a year?

Love whatever the fuck this genre is in my wrapped. Thanks song radio autoplay.
No surprise WILLOW is top artist, but expected at least one of her songs in top 5 given I had her albums on rpt for half the year. I forgot how hard I went on PinkPantheress in the first few months tho.

People who are temporarily abled always seem to think they won’t become sick - or if they do they will be surrounded by love & support, by easy answers and “fixes”.
They believe they will be the exception.
Unfortunately that’s rarely the case & this realization can be quite jarring for people.

On this International Day for People with Disabilities - please listen to disabled people.
A hashtag is well and good - but an empty gesture if you won’t address ableism and discrimination and help us get the social supports and medical care we need and deserve. 🧵

I never imagined we would normalize the kind of mass death & disability we’ve accepted in last five years.
People were annoyed at having to do things they didn’t want to do (mask, avoid indoor dining) and resigned themselves to repeat covid infections that COULD be prevented
