In Australia the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is paradigm shifting & life-changing for disabled people. But due to many errors of judgement, Government are trying to curb spending, esp. for autism (largest NDIS group). There's a lot of rhetoric & we addressed that 👇 (link in comments)

Maybe I'll mix it up a bit here & post about some of my SpIns. I've been a competitive (amateur) ten pin bowler since I was ~17yo. My highest game is 267. My current average is 174. This week I bowled a 600 series, meaning I averaged over 200 for all 3 games at league & my highest score this season☺️
