  1. Despite barely any population growth, Tasmania doesn't have enough houses
    abc.net.au/news/2026-07-19/tas

    People need to be stopped from hoarding houses if we're going to increase housing affordability for low-income renters and middle-income people who want to buy a home.
    Nobody is saying it.
    The article devotes just one sentence to hinting at the problem: "However, that does not take into consideration other factors, such as the number of homes sitting vacant."

    Real estate agents are financially motivated by selling more houses to rich people who treat them as collectables that remain unused. Politicians are financially motivated by donations from property developers and wannabe property moguls. Of course these people are saying the solution to the problem is "Increase supply," and increase the offerings for this unhealthy spiral. The solution is to wean rich people off their hoarding-addiction for houses.

  3. When Christine's grandson told her that a multi-million dollar plan to build a gaudy, massive Trump Tower on the Gold Coast had just been proposed, she didn't waste a minute.

    Christine launched a campaign to stop Trump Tower being built on the Gold Coast – and the response is already building.

  8. If you are a #drug user and you are based in #Australia I highly recommend purchasing a reagent drug test kit for health and safety from this website, sometimes you never know what you might be purchasing off of someone and this should confirm all of your questions.

  10. One thing I'll say for that #Nazi rally in front of #parliament house - the utter cunts were #arrogant and #stupid enough to go without masks this time, and now, one by one, they are being #identified and #ostracised. #Jobs are being lost, #relationships destroyed, and one guy has just been #deported. You just. You love to fucking see it. Eat shit, #Nazis. Sorry to your family members.

  13. The Tasmanian government has announced that from 2029 (when the current funding deal expires) funding will cease for greyhound racing in the state. This isn't an explicit ban, but given the loss making nature of the industry, it's likely it won't survive without being propped up by the government.

    This is great news, and the remaining states should follow suit so we can end this barbaric, cruel practice in Australia once and for all.
