Il est indispensable de lire le livre "Careless People" par Sarah Wynn-Williams.

Sarah raconte son histoire au sein de l'équipe policy dans l'état-major de Facebook qui commence en 2011 et se finit par son licenciement en 2019 après qu'elle a dénoncé le harcèlement subi de la part d'un de ses patrons.

Yes, I appreciate your @thejuicemedia ads, but ignoring my request to follow over a year isn't acceptable. What's wrong with your instance?

This isn’t just a bad bill; it’s a betrayal of Australian voters. These changes were rushed through Parliament without proper scrutiny, debate, or transparency. The biggest changes to electoral laws in 40 years deserved a multi-party inquiry, not backroom deals.
It’s clear: the major parties are more interested in protecting their duopoly than serving the people. This is why we need strong, independent voices in Parliament, voices that aren’t beholden to corporate donors or party machines.

When considering the state of civil rights in the UK today, the only thing you need to know is that an 87 year old Holocaust survivor was called in for questioning by the Metropolitan Police for attending a completely peaceful anti-genocide rally.

Being anti-genocide should be the default position of every living person.

It's really so very basic and barely even an ask.

Anyone who would have to pause to "consider their position" on genocide should be named, shamed, tarred, feathered, and ridden out of town on a rail.

Dutton keeps parroting some line in press conferences that '27,000 small businesses have closed in the last two years.' And never gets pulled up.

Takes two seconds to go the ABS and find total businesses have increased year on year over the same period ... in fact there's been a net increase every year, for years. And every year a ton close.

Fuck you're lazy, old media. Do better.

We could renegotiate the sub deal with the French, they know how to make pretty good subs, nukes included. Then we can cease exporting aluminium ore to the States (we can stockpile it and watch the price go up), and triple the rent on Pine Gap. Finally we'll all sit down with pop corn and watch what the orange haired wanker will do 🤣

@timrichards @ajsadauskas
The best rule changes would be ones to introduce a finely gradated set of sanctions that can be gradually escalated for flouting the rules. afaict this is mostly missing due to the focus on building trust among the small number of ECSC, EEC members early in the group's history. I remember the idealism growing up there in those days and it's a different world now.
