Anti-populist, anti-fascist, political news junkie …throw in some cats, italian food, TV, graphic design…even though it feels like the left is being pecked to death by ducks, I believe humans are fundamentally kind, and I won’t give up on progress. Melb 🇦🇺

To me it’s the same problem over & over again, I blame Albo’s painfully slow mulling. He is probably still reviewing the draft they sent him. By the time he does anything everyone has moved on or it’s piss weak. Full control upper/lower what a wasted opportunity for bold moves. He needs to go now!

Ooh now we are talking. Wonder if that will work for equivalent far right party whipping up a frenzy in Australia making immigrants hate other immigrants

I’ve been listening to Ain’t No Second Prize all week, I feel like it’s a song for our current time, the world is progressing, but far right conservatives through fear and division want to put up a wall. I don’t want to go back. JB “It’s not about winning it’s about giving it everything you’ve got”.

The younger generations get done over again by Boomers. Unleash Australia, give me a break… more like hogtying us to pollution, racism, social inequality because they want to go back to some fairytale notion of the good old days. (As a GenXer, I’m blaming a good chunk of them as well). Disgraceful 🙄

Like what happened to him, drunk with power, lost his marbles, hamstrung, such a disappointment… just hope the advisors advise he must go way before the next election. What a missed opportunity for some bold moves.

Argh in the age of 5 second, manipulated news headlines, waking up to ‘Greens don’t support Ukraine’ or pretty much same thing… was definitely a surprise… I mean if the sensible centre were thinking of alternatives to vote for, you pretty much had them. I think you just wharfied your chances.

Well that was one heck of a short honeymoon period. He just wharfied the greens chances. That is exactly why the general public doesn’t get behind the Greens, too extreme. And I am Greens supporter. Have I missed something in the vox pops, when did support for Ukraine become a hot topic? 🙄

Exactly been thinking perhaps tax rates should go up / down instead of interest rates, at least the country benefits from the hikes, rather than banks. And those that are less well off get taxed at a lower rate… so like people with money might slow spending… regardless if they have a home or not.

Michelle Frantenauk @michellefrantenauk.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
Righto so almost 700k unemployed is probably enough to start dropping interest rates… these are people’s lives not percentages and statistics. If people lose their jobs, livelyhoods, families, they should sue the reserve bank.. absolutely ridiculous metrics to curb inflation. Must be another way.

If we don’t have a manufacturing sector the least we can do is support science & research. Medical breakthroughs can change a whole countries GDP these days. More bold moves, you hold the floor, we’re about to lose the lot @albomp.bsky.social @markbutlermp.bsky.social @timayres-minister.bsky.social

The president banned reporters for asking questions. He can’t defend his record. And if you can’t take the heat, then get out of the kitchen.

Sometimes I ponder in despair of the world we could be living in if Donald Trump was not in charge during the pandemic, the genocide of Palestinians, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the regulation of AI and bitcoin, global rise of far right, social division and global warming’s point of no return.

Let’s just say I initially did not agree… and got quite angry about it…as it’s not really a “rock song”… but he convinced me… I think we worked out it is probably the most covered song of all time too. Also do I have a setting on here that people can’t see my posts… 🤣🫪🤔

Why should the rest of us tolerate anti-vaxxers or kowtow to their ignorant prejudices? They willfully reject centuries of scientific progress and endanger us all. 🤷🙄🤷

Fuck didn’t think it would hit me this hard. I remember when Prince died, was talking to my husband about who is an equivalent female music titan, snap… we both said Dolly Parton. Lately I’ve been thinking about all this seismic activity, Dolly dying blows through a collective psyche richter scale.

Noooooo. God damn it. That was tough news to wake up to. I feel so lucky to be in her timeline… was there truly a more beautiful, inspiring, brilliant and caring human being. Devastated. She had become quite unwell recently and now resting in glittering peace, man the world will miss Queen Dolly.

So I went to see The Odyssey at IMAX with my film buff husband… well he isn’t called Mr Contrary for nuffin. On leaving the cinema: “would rather have watched it on an iWatch, it made me regret reading the book” 😏🤭 For his full review see here… boxd.it/fTqDMv

Well if the ABC has to report on facts and evidence rather than equal time, both sideism no wonder she wants them banded, no substance, no policies, just division and baiting. Horrible stuff, still can’t believe this is happening to our beautiful state.
