I like her but she makes music for girls with slick back buns to use as a sound on Instagram posts with low exposure photos of martinis. And a caption on how much they love their life

“i want thoughtfulness that comes naturally, not thoughtfulness i have to request and then feel grateful for receiving.”

Paul Keating makes the point that excluding Ed Husic from the ministry, the new Albanese government is showing contempt to the Muslim community who supported Labor at the election

Qantas says it's been necessary to slash pay and conditions (by as much as 44%) "to survive".

Qantas just made $2.5 billion profit.

That is not necessary for survival, it's obscene greed.

Eat the rich, but eat this guy first.

Without someone else’s labour, a CEO is nothing. Without their workers, a company is nothing.

“In proportion as capital accumulates, the lot of the laborer must grow worse. Accumulation of wealth at one pole is at the same time accumulation of misery at the opposite pole.”

“there is only one way in which the murderous death agonies of the old society and the bloody birth throes of the new society can be shortened, simplified and concentrated, and that way is revolutionary terror.”

[TWU Australia @TWUAus]

QANTAS WORKERS WIN! The High Court has unanimously dismissed Qantas’ appeal over the illegal outsourcing of 1700 workers.

This is a massive victory for the workers who have not stopped fighting for justice since they were outsourced.

Great surprise this week to learn that Visions of Nature has been shortlisted for the #NSWPHA General History Prize. It's amazing to see this book in such great company again and I want to congratulate all the other authors that have had their work recognised by the Judges.

[State Library of NSW @statelibrarynsw]

@JarrodHore throw in some Judith Wright, repeats of last Saturday’s Knights game and plenty of espresso and I wouldn’t hear from you for days

[Brian Jordan Alvarez @brianjoralvarez]

Wow

[Jarrod Hore @JarrodHore]

In slightly belated news, last week my book Visions of Nature was awarded the inaugural Marilyn Lake Prize for Australian Transnational History. This was a huge and quite unexpected honour.

The judges called it 'A benchmark of Australian transnational and spatial history.'

SICKENS me that landlords can put rent up by 20% and that's just "the market" but a wage increase of 10% is considered a greedy demand. The landlord class and the employing class are the same people and now they've normalised in-work poverty they wanna force us out of our homes

[Amy Boyle @amyboyle___]

Can we please have graphs like this done in style of the VH1 Pop Up music videos on the news? I need this to come on every time they interview some business council group🤦‍♀️

[Centre for Future Work @CntrFutureWork]

This means that even with a 7% increase that the ACTU is asking for, the real minimum wage will only return to 2019 levels and still be 1% lower than it was in 2020. 6/8

[Amy Boyle @amyboyle___]

This increase is great news and will directly assist the very people who actually keep the economy going - the union movement fought hard for this 👏

[Michele O'Neil @MicheleONeilAU]

The union movement has fought for and won increases in pay for 2.67 million Australian workers. Today’s announcement of an 8.6% increase for those on the minimum wage and 5.57% for those on award wages will make a real difference. Join your union.

[Dripped Out Trade Unionists @UnionDrip]

if I was Australian, I would join this union just for the jackets
