It feels like our public health systems have gone backwards since covid. Not because we don’t have the skills and resources, but because of ideology.
I’m a trauma researcher. So many people shouldn’t have kids.
I have a bachelors in psychology so was able to pick based on my understanding of approaches. I knew I didn’t want CBT, so went with an ACT psych instead. Mine is also a developmental psychologist so I knew they’d be more likely to understand neurodevelopmental disabilities than your average psychologist.
I’m Audhd and pretty much use my psychologist for all of this.
It’s interesting that people want daylight savings in qld during summer because we spend most of summer wanting the sun to fuck off.

Fuck this was depressing to read. Validating though.
Amazing public relations campaign if this is all part of a marketing thing.
We have a small population and mandatory voting means everyone gets a vote by default. We also have a different culture around voting because the majority of us have to do it. We have sausage sizzles and democracy dogs. I’ve personally worked at polls all over my state and there’s never been a line longer than 10 people. It takes most people like 5 mins max to vote. We make voting easy in Australia because everyone has to do it.
It’s worth noting that it’s not all that mandatory. It’s relatively easy to simply avoid enrolling to vote. You’re not automatically enrolled in other words. Also it’s really easy to just sign your name off at the poll and hand in a blank vote. The worst outcome of not voting is a fine that you can pretty easily get out of as well.
We do the queen/king’s bday on a different date to whatever the current Monarch’s actual bday is. Surely we could just do the same thing with any of these other dates.
It’s the holiday equivalent of those oversized American utes
These companies have entire public relations departments that can see the writing on the wall. The people who want to celebrate Australia day as it currently is are dying out / becoming irrelevant. Millenials will soon be the largest generation. Sure there are still millenials that have no problem celebrating Australia day, but they are increasingly in the minority. Even moreso in gen z.
Personally I don’t even know if i think the date should be changed anymore. Maybe it would be better if we embraced Indigenous Australian’s experience and treated it as a day of mourning. Essentially, stop cebrating on this day and treat it more like rememberence day. A day where we reflect on the ongoing impacts of colonisation and commit to rectifying injustices. A day of truth telling. I’m happy to go with what Indigenous Australians think is best.
Yeah 100%. You can see the change just in gen z’s attitudes towards this. The rallies are also getting bigger each year.
I’m honestly surprised it lasted this long / hasn’t been vandalised before.
I think the whole thing as is (vandalised and all) should be put in a museum. History is not linear or static. We actively create and engage in history each day. Vandalising and pulling down these statues is not erasing history but rather contributing to it. If the statue gets cleaned and fixed then that is arguably an act of historical erasure.
Human rights apply to everyone regardless of whether they engage in crime.
Nazis hate a lot of different types of people.
I don’t dislike people. They just confuse and overwhelm me and this is incredibly exhausting.
Me in Australia: finally something we’re ahead of everyone on
