Why is there not more focus on this horrible tragedy that we see in middle-aged men?

The experts are “perplexed”. How cute. It was obvious this was going to be the outcome when an addictive substance was being pushed as legit medicine with piss poor evidence to back the claims up abc.net.au/news/2025-05-1…

This the waiting time for the “cheap” ($5K) aged dependant visa. The more expensive one ($50K) now has a waiting time of 12y. You can wait in Aus on a bridging visa but need to fund everything privately. Health insurance going up to $600 per month in July

‘Butler went on to say the government would be keeping a “close eye on gap fees” and other charges. “We want to see a response from general practice to the very significant investment on behalf of taxpayers,” he said.’ Gap fees = failure of the public insurance @Mark_Butler_MP

So to paraphrase - the majority who voted no are dumb, old, poor and rural. At least they were jn the majority which is what really count in a democratic process abc.net.au/news/2023-10-1…

@iiNet Given that the Messaging Company has advised that it is on their side how will iiNet resolve this? I thought iiNet has withdrawn from email hosting?

@iiNet I moved all of my emails to the Messaging company when you forced us to. Before the deadline. They are supposed to take over this week and this morning none of my email logins are working anymore. Have you dropped 1000s of your customers down the dunny ?

@Ms_TM At least you had a response - all I ever had from them was the code months ago confirming that they will take the email address over but total radio silence since and no SoMe AFAIK

iiNet decided to stop hosting my emails and hand if over to “the messaging company” Like thousands of other users u either chose to change decades worth of contact details or change to the new provider. The change happened this week and today all email has stopped working

@Officeworks why is the number of empty display boxes on your shelves always more than the actual stock behind the counter? Tired of being told you have nothing in stock when I present the box at the cashier. Poor stock management or being deceitful?

@DamanLangguth @KangarooBeach I trained in Africa where we did not have the drills. I did IO with an 18 or 16 gauge IV cannula needle in these cases. More finicky but do-able

@taipan168 lost in all this is the fact that the stage 3 tax cut recipients pay the vast lions share of the taxes which make up government revenue. Also lost is that the ave person on $92k, is also a beneficiary of these tax cuts, but a lesser amount (of course, tax is a %). ABC and math🤦‍♂️
