Queensland government held 21-minute consultation on puberty blocker ban at same time it announced decision Exclusive: Legal challenge launched as expert says an alleged failure to conduct ‘genuine’ consultations could lead to ban being overturned

By law, QLD govt must undertake a consultation with a health service before cutting it.

“…that consultation took place from about 10am on 28 January, finishing at 10.21am.

The minister announced the government’s decision to implement the directive at a press conference that started at 10.06am.”

A Pyrex baking dish full of pasta bake sits on a stovetop. The pasta bake is penne in vegetable bolognese topped with parsley sauce and sprinkled with crumbled ricotta.

I made pasta bake for dinner. Plus rice salad and coleslaw for future dinners. And a bit of a mess if I’m honest.

How can I be a good ally to trans people right now? On our new Queer & A column, Liz walks us through how to be a good cis ally in a dangerous time

Sometimes the existential whiplash of chronic illness/dynamic disability is just A Lot. Yesterday I was tired but energised & thinking about applying for a job. Today I’m beyond exhausted, everything hurts & it took me 2hrs to eat a bowl of cereal.

If Hamas had killed 7 Israelis inside of Israel this week, it would be one of the biggest stories in the world, & all over the US media.

But Israel killed 7 HUNDRED Palestinians this week, including almost 200 children, & yet there's little outrage from our politicians or media.

Peter Dutton: "We will revitalise discussions on a Free Trade Agreement with our trusted partner, Israel – building on a strong economic relationship and looking to harness Israel’s strengths in technology and R&D."

Peter Dutton: "We will revitalise discussions on a Free Trade Agreement with our trusted partner, Israel – building on a strong economic relationship and looking to harness Israel’s strengths in technology and R&D."

🧵 Dutton says he'll seek an FTA with Israel if he wins the election.

A reminder that the International Court of Justice last year found all countries were “under an obligation not to render aid or assistance in maintaining the situation created by Israel’s illegal presence” in occupied territory.

As footage of dead kids in Gaza fills your timeline once again, keep in mind that the reason the empire has worked so hard to stomp out all criticism of Israel’s western-backed atrocities is because our rulers planned on sponsoring way more atrocities and murdering way more kids.

A selfie taken in a public bathroom mirror. Amie is wearing a eucalyptus green single top, a black skirt, a brown crossbody bag, and glasses with black frames. Her long brown hair is in a side braid to the left and she’s holding her pink phone close to her chest.

The haircut was awful. Really puffy shag bob thing with a fringe that was both too short & too narrow.

Last night I had a series of weird, mildly stressful dreams. In my underwear, soaking wet in a public library; someone’s dog escaped their yard; got a bad haircut; didn’t know how to use a photocopier; put on the spot by my high school English teacher to detail the life of Liberace.

dear cis people. please learn the phrase "assigned sex"

biological sex is not an immutable trait, it is something that is assigned at birth, and more arbitrary than you realize.

You can change your sex, many people do

Once again, the purpose of a system is what it does & this type of debt automation has a purpose of killing poor, desperate people as we already saw in robodebt. My hatred for this shit & the people who do it cannot be adequately expressed without violating TOS

The murder mystery I’ve just started reading has introduced a cat, in a non-trivial amount of detail. If the cat dies I’m going to be so fucking mad.

Also ffs ABC News, there’s no such thing as “homeless camping”. It’s just homelessness

I wish I was one of those people who looks hauntingly beautiful when they’re depressed instead of like I’m constipated and furious about it.

National Gallery of Australia literally had Pacific Indigenous art collective SaVĀge K’lub cover up the Palestinian flag in their work days before the opening of their exhibition. This racist censorship is rife throughout the arts in Australia, it is disgusting! www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Establishing the President's Make America Healthy Again Commission By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”.

This is a manifesto against disability.

This is the language of eugenics.

Remember that episode where Sam Ryan dabbed a bit of Savlon on the victim & decided finding out what happened was too much effort?
