Is there a kinda algo feed you use? I use discover sometimes but I don’t like how it always includes posts from your following feed too. Whats hot classic is generally pretty good but no matter how many gay/furry stuff I block/hide, it never learns to not show it

Oh good so it’s not just me being boring haha. I know Twitter amplifies some accounts over others too so wasn’t even sure I was being seen by anyone who might still be there. It’s absolute chaos over there.

That’s my take anyway. I know thriller or psychological thriller in particular can blur the lines

Horror fiction aims to elicit intense feelings of fear, shock, or revulsion. delves into the supernatural, grotesque, or the unknown to unsettle readers. primary goal is to confront readers with their deepest fears through monstrous entities, psychological torment, or unsettling atmospheres.

something along the lines of "piss off the 'libs', 17 something something, and, the greatest country on earth" would be my guess

that's horrible, why would you love that?

it def seems to have fallen off the radar the last few years with everything since covid. The allocation of so much money in the latest budget for offshore processing would indicate business as usual unfortunately

and for the record i never said the dress code was black. I have no idea what the dress code was.

I cant speak for what guests were told to wear, I'm just saying from other photos of the crowd you can see several people wearing a similar suits. if there was indeed a mandated dress code quite a few people broke it

my point has nothing to do with how many are getting caught, just the cost involved in processing them offshore when that money can be saved processing them onshore

the operation itself is 100% how the asylum seekers are caught. My point is the ones that are caught are being processed OS which is 14 times more expensive than onshore. It doesnt matter if its 200 or 1 person. the $580M is for OS processing, it would be a lot less if they processed them onshore

ah I actually graduated 10 years ago, but was joking with an old uni mate that it would be bloody wild to be an undergrad now haha

no I know not usre if you actually read it but also says he was the only person to turn up in blue and everyone else was wearing black. I'm not saying the guy isn't a dickhead, just that part isnt strictly true

he wasn't the only person there in blue suit, but the rest tracks

The guy is a lot to handle. I'm an international Relations graduate and even I am just exhausted by America because of him

True. I guess that speaks to my whole "time/bandwidth" point though. I mean, I'm not American so I have a limited interest in general, but I also work 12 hour days so I likely wouldn't have the time to find and peruse content detailing the full extent of fuckery anyway which I assume is by design

to be fair its pretty hard to keep up with all the horribly illegal shit Trump does. He floods the zone for this very purpose because he knows nobody has the time or bandwidth to drill down on everything he does. By the time you are grasping with one thing he's already done 10 more illegal things

That $580m allocated in the 2025/2026 budget is just for the offshore processing costs not the actual military operational expenses. The operational element is what keeps arrivals down, that would be no change regardless of where you process so why pick the most expensive option?
comment in response to

these figures are also 2019 so you can fully expect that to be significantly higher by now

$570k per person annually, compared to $40,000 per person in community based. hell, even the still kinda shitty option of onshore detention is around $300k per person. Hard to make an argument other than a lack of compassion

its crazy. I was on Christmas Island 2003, now more than 20 years ago - then wrote my masters thesis about how shitty the policy is in 2015 and now THAT is a full decade ago. The UN continues to this day to inform us of our breach of human rights and it literally means nothing. I dont get it

True, and I’m not advocating for no allies. I’d love to see a closer military relationship to CANZUK but our defence posture should be rehearsing deterrence and not expeditionary projection of power

Funny how you’re the one so obsessed with a guy you feel the need to mention him in a post about the NFL draft. Thats a lot more cause for therapy 🤣

lol how am I a Trump lover when ive literally told you I’m NOT American and I’m also not interested in seeing shit about him shovelled into a post about football? You’re just butt hurt because you thought you’d get pats on the back for shoehorning in Trump shit. Lol
