“Let’s allow Hanson to win in Victoria so that we look better by comparison” is the most ALP thought that has ever grazed a cranium

the softest of the soft sciences, constantly affirming the consequent. economics is often more akin to religious reasoning than anything concrete

everything that has ever been labeled "Millennial" was either an 80 year old hallucinating what they imagine a young person is like, a 50 year old badly imitating a young person, or a 20 year old that doesn't realise they are seconds away from midnight

all these AI company freaks are genuinely just pushing themselves onto us more and more and more because they think eventually we’ll give up and let them fuck us - we are being culturally raped by these rich, evil Thunderbirds puppets come to life to imperil a college campus and then the world

If you over-regulate capitalism you get totalitarian communism. If you under-regulate capitalism you get a ruling caste of insane monopolists. Please ignore the fact that one of these things has never happened and the other keeps happening over and over

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.
Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting
"They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head."
An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries.
"We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.

Wow, Services Australia spent three quarters of a million in legal fees fighting a losing FOI fight against @daedalus.eigenmagic.com
Topic: Robodebt Case Legal Fees
Question reference number: IQ25-000016
Asked By: Senator Jacqui Lambie
Type of question: Spoken. Hansard Page/s: 9
Date set by the committee for the return of answer: 24 October 2025
Question:
Senator Lambie: Services Australia, you lost a Robodebt case against Mr Warren before the full
court. I'm just wondering what your legal costs for both Administrative Review Tribunal and the
Federal Court were? I’m gathering it's about half a million and I’m being conservative. Do you
know what the costs were?
Mr Higgins: I'd have to take that on notice, Senator. I don’t have that detail with me.
Answer:
$776,739.02 including GST (where applicable) in relation to AAT, Federal Court and ART.
