What I as a white person understand about the Aboriginal Voice To Parliament is that a YES result means something changes, and a NO result means nothing changes. The current situation is unacceptable, so I’m voting YES.

Many people with a #disability could live independently, but are stuck in nursing homes they don't want to be in.

So, from what I understand, McCarthy and Biden are not in “debt ceiling negotiations.” Because the debt ceiling is non-negotiable, we are in Democrat vs. Republican budget negotiations.

McCarthy keeps framing it as a debt ceiling duel, but he lost that battle a longtime ago.

How will the #Fediverse break #Meta’s monopoly on social media?

Same way the IESA broke IBM’s monopoly on PCs.

Same way HTML5 broke Adobe’s monopoly with Flash.

Same way open Internet standards broke Microsoft’s monopoly with Internet Explorer.

Open standards and protocols have a habit of breaking monopolies.
