This Afroman trial is giving me life.

Cops raided Afroman's house for no reason. They pointed guns at him and his kids, ransacked his house, and tried to disconnect his home security cameras. They didn't disconnect them all, and so were allegedly caught on camera stealing his money.

He then made a series of music videos using footage from his security camerasz and body cam footage. Now the cops are suing him for making the videos. The ACLU is defending him.

Just a reminder - while NDIS subsidies are allegedly 'unsustainable' fossil fuel subsidies grew by 9.6% in the last year to $16.3bn. thepoint.com.au/opinions/260...

If the NDIS is ‘runaway spending’, what do we call $16 billion in fossil fuel subsidies?

New research shows fossil fuel subsidies will reach $16.3 billion in 2025–26, rising faster than the NDIS. Handouts to mining giants are growing faster than support for Australians with disability.

Really excited that the RBA has worked out how to lower oil prices by forcing Australians to pay more on their loans. That’ll learn them!

Call to action to cis people: be assholes anytime you get asked for your sex assigned at birth. Write letters, complain to staff, refuse to answer. Make it impossible to collect sex assigned at birth. Be really offended that anyone would ask you. Make enough noise that if trans people want to quietly not answer or give whatever answer feels correct to them, no one will notice.

When exactly did we start to think that the point of humans was to be productive, instead of thinking that the point of productivity was to take care of humans?

The world’s 280 million electric bikes and mopeds are cutting demand for oil far more than electric cars

Electric vehicles get all the press – but it’s the smaller unsung two wheelers cutting oil demand the most.

Wankpanzers need to go. They kill people, clog streets and block car parks. Unless you tow big loads every other day there just isn't a justification. That one time per year you tow your caravan on holiday? Fucking rent one you pillock.

Tax breaks should go to vans, wagons and one tonners with real trays - the actual work vehicles, in other words.
