#Greens #MehreenFaruqi, said in a statement today:
“It is time for #Albanese to dump #Trump, bring the troops home, & focus on helping #Australians deal with the fallout of this catastrophe.
#Australia must not stay hitched to the wagon of an #unstable, #bloodthirsty President who even his domestic allies say has “gone #insane”. He criticises Australia near daily, yet #Labor is unwilling to condemn him & his actions.”

#Australians and #NewZealanders , at least may still be missing this blokes brilliant , unique Satire.Here is one Mr Clarkes "small noting" definition of Satire itself:
satire
Noun:
a reaction to the process whereby
politicians and public figures
hold the community up to ridicule
and contempt.-- John Clarke
Satirist, Comedian, Great Bloke.Here is an excellent reissue of an article / essay written back in 2017 or thereabouts.
https://insidestory.org.au/john-clarke-and-the-power-of-satire/
It has some 2026 observations backed onto the end so that the front bit wont fall off.
Including this lift.
"Clarke thought that a satirist should think about solutions as well as problems. He never kicked somebody because they were down, but he also thought there was little point kicking somebody simply because they were up."
If your into actual satire and comedy ... have a geek.

CW: sweariness about dollars per litre and murder
You know what, #Australians? When you bang on about #petrol prices, while people are being atomised, well call me harsh, but I _do_ lose some sympathy for you.
The "fuel crisis" is caused by your government selling its soul to #Woodside, #Santos, #Glencore and #Chevron. Your "LPG" is not fueling your car because it is fuelling their bank accounts. Their friends, also billionaires, are profiting from the weapons atomising people.
Dollars per litre? Fuck right off.

"#Jewish #LGBTQ social group #Dayenu marched in the #Sydney #MardiGras #parade on Saturday night after organisers, community leaders and police worked to address security concerns that had initially led the group to withdraw.
#NSW Jewish #BoardofDeputies CEO #MicheleGoldman, who marched with the Dayenu contingent, said it was “incredibly uplifting”.
“In the wake of the #Bondi terror attack, it is more important than ever that Jewish #Australians stand visible, proud, and resilient,” she said."

Some while ago, (and I think it was on Twitter) some American person explained to me that we #Australians were not really free because we were not allowed to possess #guns except under heavy restrictions.
He explained that America could never be overtaken by a #fascist or #Nazi regime because nearly everybody had a gun and would not stand for it.
The image of the brave minute men with their long rifled barrel hunting rifles who beat their English overlords to cement #freedom and #democracy for all forever comes to mind.
Then why the hell haven’t you done something about it? Why is #ICE still snatching people off the streets and out of their homes without a warrant or cause?
And most of you seem to be happy with that?
Do me a favour will you? Hunt down a copy of “Lincoln Portrait” by Aaron Copeland and just listen to it. Just listen to it all the way through. THIS is what you are losing. 😩😢💔

The corporation paid millions by the #Australian government to collect unpaid #tax has paid zero corporate tax itself.
Let that sink in.
#Recoveriescorp, a massive debt collector, has been hired by the Australian Taxation Office to chase down #Australians who fall behind on their tax bills. It's earned well over $100 million in #revenue – much of it from #government contracts.
Its tax bill? $0.

Im feeling sick reading about the #Bondi attack. I know we like to give each other shit, but #Australians will always be our friends & our family.
This is reminding a lot of #kiwis of the Christchurch Mosque attack & how devastating it will be for the families and communities affected. My love to you all.

CW: A little everyday #USA #sweary
#microsoft just forced me to read this. It is apparently relevant to the Job I Do For Money:
---
Learn about new commercePartners now have a choice:
+ They can continue to purchase traditional, license-based services.
+ They can purchase through the new commerce experience.Partners who decide to transact with the new commerce services need to familiarize themselves with how the new commerce license-based services work.
---#Australians. Do one thing everyday to rid yourself of USisms. Step away from these moron fascist dickheads.
When someone brings you printed #American #horseshit, take out a crayon, scrawl "horseshit" across it, and hand it back. Don't waste more time. You can mutter darkly if you want, but it'd be better to spend the freed-up time going outside for a walk.
Aaaaaaand, just in case some #MS flack is forced to follow Mastodon (the fuck, you poor bastard)
'Transact with' is not a phrase any human uses, you are possibly looking for 'buy'? Though who the fuck knows?
'Partner'??? We pay you money. That doesn't make us 'partners'. If we shared a house, bed or bank account, maaaaaybe. Otherwise? Ewwwwwwww, gross me the fuck out.
'Familiarize'? Shove your Websters dictionary up your quoit. Yes, the 1944 war-paper one has blunt corners, you can make it easier on yourself I *suppose*. All of it in one go if you please. Need a mallet? Fair enough.
'new commerce license-based services' I just have no fucking idea what this means. I am replacing it with 'hernhernhern' in the hope that it makes more sense. Ah that's better.

CW: robodebt, self harm
So how did it come that allegedly some 2000 #Australians killed themselves?
Where is the official government account of how #RoboDebt lead to their death?
Does the #AustralianGovernment even acknowledge the pivotal role that the Robodebt scheme had in these deaths?
Has it taken the steps necessary to stop the harassment, bastardry, authoritarian thuggery, #WagesTheft and #HomelessnessRisk brought by #ServicesAustralia, #Centrelink, the #HomeRentalIndustry etc etc?

As #NAIDOCWeek ends I'm sharing @brendanbeebee's post about Melbournian radio show Between The Bars (https://mastodon.social/@brendanbeebee/112762354464102427) as a reminder that First #Australians' battles and #oppression will continue like a chronic, debilitating #illness -- unless we rise and do what we can to effect #change.
We can, for instance, #lobby our #government to lower #Aboriginal deaths in custody, improve #Indigenous peoples' access to #healthcare and #education, and #protect #sacred sites.

Looked at joining my #LocalLibrary.
Read the #TermsAndConditions.
The #Library seems #StrangelyIgnorant of the deaths of some 2000 #Australians, many after being forced into interactions with #DebtColllectionServices via the #DepartmentOfHumanServices run #RoboDebt program.
At least I hope they're ignorant.
And that's why they refer fees for 28 day(?) over due items to a "US based debt collection agency".Acting like monsters.
I decided not to join but to write a short note to council.
