She did get support though, just the wrong group. Gendered services aren’t really the issue here, that aspect seems like it worked fine except that she was referred incorrectly.

You don’t know Australia.

This is the Victorian government support page for Domestic/Family Violence.

https://www.vic.gov.au/family-violence-statewide-support-services

You will notice under the men’s referral section it states:

Free, confidential expert support for people at risk of using family violence.

And when you follow the link to the referred service they state:

No to Violence provides a range of services to support men concerned about their behaviour to change what they are doing and keep women, children and communities safer.

Men are only the abusers in the eyes of the government in Australia.

Right? It’s far too low!

Oh sorry, I didn’t know only legal professionals were allowed to push back against authoritarian overreach.

On Christmas Island, he says he was denied the chance to study — and recalls being forced to eat food expired by up to seven months.

“Honestly, back home sometime when I watching Australian news … I was thinking if you guys have so much value our animal then we are human being. But came to Australia, I realise Australian dog is better than a human being, if you are not Australian. To be honest, this is the true things. I wish I was a dog in Australia so I can have at least respect.”

All my weed dealers use it where I am, so I think of it only as a drug app.

People should start putting a French tax on all French tourists.

It’s perfectly legal and fine in my country, it’s only the outer right lane that you must keep clear.

Why do you have an issue with people keeping both sides clear for people trying to exit? What a weird thing to be a shitcunt about.

We don’t vote for PMs we vote for parties. And they change as frequently as in NZ.

And my state recently signed an important treaty, meanwhile NZ is trying to alter its treaties and reneg on obligations.

One is actively working to improve the lives of their indigenous, the other is trying to make it worse.

I don’t know how to describe how stupid leaving NZ for Australia because of politics would be.

Uhh. NZ has a right wing government that is attacking trans people and Maori.

Australia is run by a center party, that on the whole is making social strides for the positive.

That’d kill our education industry overnight.

I gotta say I’m a bit concerned about this whole corporate takeover thing goin on in FOSS land. If companies start slapdin’ MIT or Apache licenses on GPL software that’s supposed to be all about freedom and whatnot, it does seem like a bit of a cop-out and it could have some pretty serious consequences for the community.

I’ve been following this convo too - from what I’ve seen, the environmental impact of tetra-paks is mostly due to the packaging itself being made from non-biodegradable materials like polyethylene. Powdered oat milk might be a better option if you’re concerned about waste and carbon emissions from transportation, but I’d love to see more research on the actual production process vs just the end-of-life packaging.

So not only can he violate her physically, but he can violate her personal life as well by snooping through her phone? Fuck whatever cunt of a judge allowed this.

Look at this knob, he probably rapes people as well.

JSAs are theft of our taxes. We need to directly fund these services not add a for profit layer in between.

We’d hoped they would not to be.

The ironny of it all is still a great argument for weed legalisation

Don’t get blinded by the lights.

Oh sick, love those guys. I hope you don’t mind that I cross posted this.

We’re the 6th largest country on the planet, we stretch from tropical rain forests in the north, to deserts in the west, to snowy mountains in the south with everything in between What climate are you looking for?
