Starting a thread of very Aussie things that I experience or encounter on a day to day basis. Some will be funny. Some will be weird. Some will be boring. Stay tuned...
I do not think we should allow ourselves to grow comfortable with the fact that the richest two people in this country own more wealth than the bottom 40% of Americans.
Am I supposed to be impressed that a billionaire went to space while he’s paid zero in federal income taxes some years and the workers at his company struggle to afford their medical bills, rent, and food for their kids? Nope. It’s time to invest in working people here on Earth.
@instagram@InstagramComms PLEASE HELP. I accidentally changed the birthdate of an account I manage to the company's founding date (6 years) and I've now been locked out for nearly 2 weeks. I've appealed multiple times but nothing. Can someone please help me out??
@claireymeyer Read a great little post about bisexuality and biphobia yesterday and it just made me realize how incredibly stigmatized it is and how uneducated the general public (including myself) is about it - it's like people only focus on the lgt of lgbtqia+ and it's ridiculous
It would be cool if for Mother’s Day we collectively worked to achieve things that would actually benefit mothers like childcare, universal healthcare, pay equity, and maternity leave policies that enable bonding and don’t cause harm. But sure, flowers are nice.
just thinking about how if public schools were invented today, they'd be dismissed as a socialist plot
"why should I pay for someone else's schooling?"
"not everyone is meant to go to school"
"what about the private school jobs?"
"the gov't is too inefficient to do education"
How can the Vatican refuse to bless gay marriages because they “are sin”, yet happily make a profit from investing millions in “Rocketman” - a film which celebrates my finding happiness from my marriage to David?? #hypocrisy@VaticanNews@Pontifex
"Publicity stunts on #IWD are an insult to the women they continually exploit to produce clothing like these 'feminist' t-shirts."
@francesleach_ looks at the irony of fast fashion brands like Boohoo using feminist slogans, while accused of using modern slavery.

I wish I had the privilege to sit on the fence. In order for me to do that I would have to strip myself of my identity and that’s not something I can do. It’s not any of our places to pick apart claims of racism in order to make us to feel more comfortable. ❤️
