The beauty of Blue Sky and the underpinning protocol is that it is possible to host the required services outside of the US and still participate in the discussions on Blue Sky. Heck, there’s even a variety of clients so you are not stuck with just the bsky app, you can choose a different one.

The relationship has definitely followed the trajectory of Musk’s SpaceX starships - loud & fiery launch followed by a rapid disassembly 🚀💥

You would think that reducing Govt funding to private schools would enable supply of lunches in public ones. But the private schools wouldn’t want their profits reduced, so would get more 💰 and the public schools would again be underfunded. Entrenching the existing private school grift.

No values, only a lovely list of beliefs on their web site - via a small link at the very bottom of the page where no one is likely to stumble across it unless they are looking. Their actions don't appear to align with those beliefs though. Also, don't look at the beliefs in the Federal Platform!

Their inaction is turning it into an economic issue that everyone has seen coming because of the inaction. Insurance costs increasing, business not reopening after major climate related damage, people leaving climate impacted areas, etc…

How many of that 23K FB group are actually in the 75K voting population? My guess is significantly less than 23K.

"Remember this next time you see the (Big) Business Council issuing yet another report urging the government to do something to improve productivity. What businesspeople say about productivity is usually thinly disguised rent-seeking." 👏 @rossgittins.bsky.social

Just spent 2 years living in Maine, USA in a house with double glazing. It was awesome. -20°C outside and a comfortable 18°C inside with the heating only actually running for about 6hrs across the day to maintain the inside temp. Now back in Australia and dreading cooling costs w/ single glazing.

Hopefully not a wasp, got bitten by one the other day and it is not pleasant at all. Then again, maybe this is what bit the LNP too, their day is probably worse than mine. At least I still have my job.
