Tis at dark times like this that i cheer myself right up again by recollecting Labor's stellar performance on the #ClimateCrisis, & serious tax reform, & not-just-rhetorical support for #DV & women being murdered by dickswingers, & excellent free public education for all, & ending fossilfool support, & genuinely serious public housing support, & fucking the scourge of religion right outta Parly & education, & ... & ...

AFAICT this is a very real looming problem, yet our cretinous AusPol lack-of-leadership bullshit shemozzle is either exacerbating this, or at the very least, not helping. Eg... each time i begin again to ponder if i could possibly overcome my personal demons to fully electrify my home [ie, endure all the intensive peopling needed] when our gas prices rise [ie, increasing the economic desire to convert], what happens? Yep, our fucken electricity prices rise as well, thus reducing or eliminating the economic incentive.

Ofc all the climate, & moral, reasons remain to more than justify converting, but so far, w/o also the strong economic reasons, my demons keep winning the day. For normal, non-me, peeps, sans my demons, the confused economic signals alone prolly entirely prevent them converting.

Fuckheads, our govt. 🙄🤦‍♀️

Initially i was going to critique several issues in this article, but i'm feeling extra lazy, so shall restrict myself to a single whinge [for now...].

But of concern, this increase has not extended to ... religious institutions

Why the fuck in the name of all that is shitty & fucked should any decent rational non-delusional human ever feel "concerned" about the inexorable decline of skyfairydelusionism?
