#Breaking | ANU College of Arts & Social Sciences will not face structural changes at this time. No renaming, merging, or disestablishment of areas. Change management appears to have been halted, even walked back completely. It’s unclear the impacts of this announcement on music.
This is insane. She completely ignores the fact that people are not going to use their neighbour’s car and that a neighbour is not going to let anyone else use their car. That’s the problem with nonsense like this - it never takes into account basic human nature.

Emma’s ADHD child was being violent at school.
The calls, the meetings, the blame — she’d tried everything.
This is her story of heartbreak, persistence, and finding real help in a system that too often judges instead of supports.

Sofia was 8 when she died. Her parents had no roadmap— just pain, confusion & love.
In Australia 1000s of families w terminally ill children are left to cope without adequate palliative care.
I wrote this story to expose how the system can do better:

Bree and her child thought they would end up on the street. Broke and out of options.
The ACT Rent Relief Fund saved them.
That fund was quietly axed on July 4. Just $1.7M a year.
💔 Hundreds helped. Now—nothing.
