If Aus Post wants to save money they should just take packages directly to the post office for pickup instead of putting them in the truck for a little ride just so the driver can pretend they tried to deliver it but no one was home

If you marched in the streets and signed petitions for marriage equality a few years ago, you have a duty to be just as active as the government tries to single out trans kids for legalised discrimination now

I went to a queer parenting class a few weeks ago. Among the group was a pregnant trans guy. Everyone adjusted their language accordingly and it was completely fine. It’s very easy and it costs nothing. Stop whining you fucking sooks.

A very minor point in the grand scheme of things, but Junkee hasn’t been able to go to a budget for a long time. We’re part of a new company now, so we were able to send a team to Canberra, and I think our coverage is pretty good. This stuff matters! I want to do more of it!

I think any reasonable person could agree that NSW Police should have to at least earn their right to march each year. It's not a given. It's less than a week since they had to apologise for being "indifferent, negligent, dismissive or hostile" to our community.

Has there been a more affective politician in recent times than @AlexGreenwich ? Under state and federal Liberal governments, he’s managed to pull together coalitions that were able to legalise same-sex marriage nationally, and abortion and euthanasia in NSW. What a legacy.
