Can you spare a minute to help this campaign? I'm 13. I'll be past 40 before I can afford a house. Australia has a right to housing.

But it comes out of their 'allowance'?

I know the MIL gets a shower 3 x per week and I know she has a very large balance on her account which she loses unless she spends it. She never spends it.

I think I am prepared as much as I can be.

Off grid solar and battery.
EV on the way.
A few fruit trees.
Might need some more chickens
25,000ltrs of water when it finally rains.
40 days of body fat.
Might start stocking non perishables.
Maybe start brewing again.

Wakes up to the Billionaire Media cheering on an extended ceasefire of the #EpsteinWar

Why?

There is no reason Australian cities couldn't go down the same path, other than NIMBYs.

TODs would be the place to start.

Give me Barcelona any day over very high towers or urban sprawl.

I like to share this pic for these stories.

We are behind many countries with chargers but so is our EV uptake.

One of my favourite cars was a little Suzuki Hatch in the 1980s

Small and very basic 3 cylinders and about 850CC of pure powa🤣

It had four wheels though.

We need more of these and fewer oversized utes/trucks.

Why the gas giants stopped gouging After a decade and a half of mostly failed threats from three prime ministers and constant surveillance by the competition regulator, the east coast gas export giants are suddenly putting Australians ...

I couldn't understand why spot electricity prices weren't being affected by Operation Epstein Fury #Auspol

If this is due to pressure from @chrisbowenmp.bsky.social this is a huge win.

Funny how the law and order guys never think it applies to them 🙄

He’s again blaming the courts, the protesters and those attacked by police all for his appalling and illegal attempts to ban dissent

The Fraud's Prayer:
Our Father, who art in the White House,
hallowed be thy combover;
thy blingdom come;
thy will be dumb;
In Washington as you are in Florida.
Give us this day our daily round of golf.
And forgive us our insider trading,
as we refuse to forgive those who investigate against us...

UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese described the Israeli occupation army as “the most degenerate army on earth,” stating that its practices have crossed all red lines and violated international law.

I have been very concerned about AGW since the 1980s. Had solar HWS since <>1990. Solar PV since 2000 and a battery since 2022.

So the car will be last to go. My 'guilt' in driving the ICE was limiting me.

Getting our EV next week and I expect us to do a lot more driving for fun, guilt free.

This is an opportunity for bold generational reform, not tinkering around the edges.

Momentum is growing for significant tax reform in the May budget.

Dozens of groups are today calling for a tax on gas exports of at least 25% - a move that would raise $17 billion each year.

Short term political thinking.

China thinks long term.

We are led by Donkeys.

I am going to have to read Amy's book.

I knew the Little War Criminal is responsible for most of our problems but did not know about this one.

If they don't put him in a crypt I am definitely going to defecate on his grave.

Australia faced the same dilemma as China in 2004 but made the wrong call While the rest of us count the cost in higher fuel costs, higher inflation and a weaker economy,  China — the actual winner of the war — will be enjoying a surge of global interest in its solar panels...

Good summary of how we got into this mess in Australia.
