@purpleabbiie As a therapist working in one of those psych wards, I am constantly holding the hope for my patients that life will one day bring them more, when they can’t find that hope themselves. This post helps keep my passion for what I do alive, while I try to keep them alive.

2018 in QLD

@MelindaMann01 Reading these comments is so sad. I volunteered with AIME several years ago doing an after-school tutoring program for indigenous teenagers that the kids said was really helpful for them keeping on top of school work and finishing year 12. Is it no longer doing these things?
Lots of videos and images alleging to show Russian attacks on Ukrainian towns and cities going viral on social media already. It is customary for old or false footage to go viral during a conflict, so please try to verify or check the source of the footage you see before sharing.

If you privately call him a liar and a hypocrite and then, publicly say, he’s not a liar and a hypocrite, does that make you a liar and a hypocrite? 🤦♂️ #auspol
Meanwhile, as commentators continue to froth about whether a sexual assault survivor should have smiled more, some of today's headlines in the @westaustralian.
“Don't be too polite girls, don't be too polite, Show a little fight girls, show a little fight, Don't be fearful of offending, in case you get the sack Just recognise your value and we won't look back.”
This is Australian union song, 1969
This government has spent 10 times more persecuting a Tamil family than they have, taking action on violence against women.
It's a window into their priorities, and it highlights their unilateral lack of humanity.
