@MoiraWere @pipsterb @ethicalfields @AlboMP I've always been a fan of the term development as a buddy for the term 'growth'. It's about the quality of what exists rather than the quantity.

@askebay @ebayaustralia I'm really disappointed with ebay plus. Is it actually intending to operating like a scam?

@AskeBay I've had the worst experience with ebay plus, can you please help me not be a member of this?

When you’ve defined your leadership by cruelty to people seeking asylum, ignoring First Peoples, chasing the most vulnerable Australians for robodebts, refusing to raise Newstart and hoping to expand the right to discriminate against others... it would be hard to pivot to empathy

For all it’s utility, the medical model bears a hidden negative assumption that what is important abt a person is his or her injury, disease, deficiency, problem, need, empty half. The able, gifted, skilled, capable, & full part of a person is not the focus of the medical model.
