Honest Government Ad | The Ensh*ttenment YouTube video by thejuicemedia

The Government™ has made an ad about the era we're living through, and it's surpsingly honest and informative.

“We’re helping too many people with disabilities” is a hell of a line from a Labor government

Keep Android Open Advocating for Android as a free, open platform for everyone to build apps on.

I know many were drawn to Android because it sold itself on being an open platform. Google has quietly decided they no longer need that promise. We'll be watching this closely and pushing for answers. If you share these concerns join the Keep Android Open campaign keepandroidopen.org/cta/

A graph showing increasing defence spending over the decade from 2026-27. Rising from just over $60 billion to close to $120 billion.

The NDIS is far from perfect. But there's something particularly inhuman about the Labor Party pushing through changes that will see 160,000 people kicked off disability support in the same week they proudly announced an increase in military spending of $53 billion over 10 years.

Same company btw (the biggest one -2Apply)

Larissa Waters asks former Treasury chief Ken Henry if it’s too simplistic to say wartime gas profits from the war on Iran can either go to Australians, or to overseas investors & shareholders.
Henry “That’s not simplistic, that’s how it is!” “It is as simple as that.” 💥 #auspol

While watching a South Aus garden YouTube channel today, the gardener stated that an abandoned house had sold twice this year. It sold for $1.3 m a few months back.Was put back on the market & sold for $1.8 m just days ago.The abandoned house owner collected 500K for sweet FA while ppl are homeless

Good thing houses can’t flee (more landlords should tho) 🤩

Very true, looking forward to it!

This show is now in a parallel universe. Sheila not reacting to her marriage ending, Ivy becoming a schemer and Daphne being responsible.

Palantir's CEO published a manifesto arguing Western tech firms have a "moral debt" to US military dominance, that AI weapons are inevitable, and that "some cultures are dysfunctional." This isn't just a regularly evil tech or defence contractor, it’s a fascist political project.

Thank you @punterslounge.bsky.social for speaking on my behalf 🙏

Local Government workers from across 8 Metropolitan Melbourne Councils are taking a historic 24-hour Strike Action for fair wages and conditions on 5 May.
Help us build the strike, and you can RSVP to the rally here: events.humanitix.com/council-work...

These are the weasel words the government used today to justify slashing supports to disabled people, just days after they promised another gagillion dollars to fatten the bottom lines of weapons manufacturers.

Labor always has money for war.

Every press release from Palantir reads like something you find in a blood spattered desk drawer in a Resident Evil game.

Headline from the Australian newspaper Iran’s media cheer squad can’t stomach trump’s success by Chris mitchell

Meanwhile, in the “what’s in the water” newsroom at the Australian, Rupert Murdoch’s view of the US burning its global alliances and savaging the world economy becomes more detached from reality and common sense every day.

The latest Truth Social post by Trump boasts of war profiteering from the illegal US blockade of Strait of Hormuz, while threatening war crimes against the Iranian people. All in a night’s work for an increasingly deranged US President. End AUKUS, free us from being part of this.

How will history regard the Albanese government? On turning a blind eye to war crimes in Iran, Gaza and Lebanon

Australia has done nothing while Israel has assassinated journalists, medics, aid workers, diplomats, foreign & spiritual leaders. Through the war crimes & illegal invasions, Albanese has done nothing even to dissuade Israel – no sanctions, no support for arrest warrants.
Is there even a red line?

There's more choice this time round than the same old, same old

How the heck is @johnmenadue.com publishing Drew Hutton? The man has jumped the shark. He is vilely abusive to women who refuse to join his terf campaign. I know because I was one he attacked. I implore Pearls & Irritations not to publish this abusive creep.

Friday, Brisbane protesters sing & dance to John Farnham’s Two Strong Hearts - ‘River to the Sea’
Saturday, 20 arrested for saying the exact same words in a chant.

So if you wear a wig & dance you won’t be arrested. The inconsistency is utterly humiliating for David Crisafulli.

Worth your vote if you live in the electorate.

Go Liam!

A screenshot of a headline in the Australian which reads, "He faces jail over a pro-Palestine chant. Now he wants your vote". It includes a picture of Queensland Socialists member Liam Parry who is running in the Stafford by-election.

Shout out to the Australian for the cool graphic and yeah, vote for Queensland Socialists member Liam Parry in the upcoming Stafford by-election. ❤️

Queenslanders in Brisbane have defied Premier David Crisafulli's speech criminalisation regime & tested John Farnham's Two Strong Hearts song in open protest. Queensland police monitored the rally but made no arrests on a variant of the banned phrase being sung. #qldpol
