Corruption unabashed and right in front of our noses. Why should taxpayers subsidise commercial television, and why give away taxpayers' land in the middle of a housing crisis for psychologically dodgy bread and circuses? Can these people not smell their own shit? www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Haha. This guy actually ran for governor of California. He's an Oath Keeper and the kind of guy that creeps around goth clubs inviting people to his key parties. It's like if Meatloaf and Greg Bovino had a baby.

It’s big news in the US when the president tries to ban news networks. Yet when the Trumpist aspirant to be Australia’s prime minister bans ABC and Guardian, legacy media says almost nothing. Scholars of dictatorship call this shameful cowardice [or complicity] ‘obeying in advance’. #auspol

There's a thread on AskReddit asking, "People who have had to drain their life’s savings on a single event, what happened?" 99% of the answers are depressing American stories about medical bills, 1% is an Australian who found a wombat burrowing under their house.
A wombat undermined our house to build his burrow.

Nearly $50k in foundation repairs, plus $200 in chicken wire to keep him out.

Now he’s done the same thing to the shed, so $5k to build a new shed on the other side of the property.

Here he is, old Fat Bastard himself..

Edit: it’s wild how many people are suggesting we “get rid” him... Apart from it being very much illegal, the idea would just never even cross my mind. It’s his home too.

He’s now settled in his new burrow, and our house is wombat-proofed. The worst he does now is dig up my potatoes.

"Trump has made clear over and over that he approves of violence done in his name, and that he believes that his enemies deserve to be physically harmed. That creates a permission structure in which MAGA supporters may feel that they can aid the cause through threats and violence."

Beyond beauty, sunflowers are permaculture powerhouses! 🌻 They create living trellises for climbers (beans/cukes), provide dynamic shade for cool-season crops, draw in beneficial insects, and their deep roots improve soil structure. Chop-and-drop stalks add biomass! #Permaculture #Sunflowers
