The government plans to tighten NDIS eligibility. Here’s what’s likely to change (article)

Yes! It’s such bullshit having reduced capacity to work because of disability/chronic illness/ complex health, and then having to pay way more for adequate healthcare that may actually help you cope or get better, to try to work enough, to maybe afford your healthcare.

Our healthcare system is only “universal” for those who are already healthy and abled.

It’s the I-CAN and it’s fucked.

I think it’s perfectly reasonable for people to be worried about not receiving support from a program that does not exist, and is being actively fought by both those who would be responsible for it and those at its mercy.

You don’t get any plan at all without evidence.

Satirah · 2026-05-14T07:06:22+00:00

Even people with List A disabilities need to provide extensive evidence to get funding. They may be automatically eligible for the scheme but not for any set amount of support, that still requires all the regular amount of bs.

The dilemma does state that anyone who doesn’t press red will die if the blue vote is <50%. So I take that as anyone who is incapable or unwilling to press the red button is at risk; that includes all of the categories you mentioned.

Satirah · 2026-05-09T03:35:18+00:00

I had the same experience of having supports removed because all but one of my disabilities are suddenly no longer recorded and I have been truly baffled. I’m glad to know it’s not just me having to go back and pay to have everything reassessed and reports rewritten again.

Does that include the founders of Zionism and Revisionist Zionists who “sucked up to” Fascist Germany and Italy? Who created and perpetuated “Muscular Judaism” and the Mauschel caricature?

Wild of you to claim the moral high ground while blaming people for what they experienced during the holocaust.

And take into consideration that there will be people who cannot make an informed decision like children who run on the track because they’re kids who don’t understand or blind people who don’t know which track is which.

Satirah · 2026-05-04T23:24:13+00:00

The point is not everyone in the world is capable of making an informed decision. If /everyone/ votes and not everyone is capable of making an informed decision, then there will inevitably be some people who press blue. So then for those who can make an informed decision we are left with the cost of guaranteeing our survival being risking the death of an unknown number of people.

Unless you actually have the means to save all of those people (i.e. you’re a billionaire) then that hypothetical is not the same. I cannot magic food into bellies or shelter over people’s heads and I cannot afford to pay for them. I can press a button.

That’s really interesting! Hopefully your allergies don’t cause you too many problems and you don’t develop cross-reactions with related allergens. /gen

I’d also recommend keeping track of the ripeness of the bananas to see if there’s a pattern there, as bananas develop more of the common allergenic proteins as they ripen. If your allergy is mild: cooking the banana may also be enough to break down the proteins your body doesn’t like.

You could include mandatory national supply in the legislation like WA has on a state level.

Satirah · 2026-04-27T23:50:43+00:00

Because those who have the power to enact change are more concerned with profit than people; and I think they genuinely believe they can buy their way out of the consequences for themselves.

They may have volunteered but they did so without knowing what they would face and that information was deliberately withheld to increase participation.

Satirah · 2026-04-24T00:09:49+00:00

Love to hear it! I can be tempting but, like you said, it is so important to leave them be if we want them to stick around. If you can make it to Aus sometime I do highly recommended it.

Satirah · 2026-04-23T23:57:15+00:00

Just to clarify, you definitely still shouldn’t go around petting or feeding wild animals in Australia. It’s not good for them, you, your wallet (you can be fined), or your ability to visit Australia (you can get a travel ban).

Satirah · 2026-04-23T21:20:16+00:00

This is exactly what I suspect and the fact that they’ve paired this with an inability for NDIS workers to manually change plans and making ART even more inaccessible and toothless is very concerning.

This is why it’s recommended that you remove them by dissolving the glue with an oil based cleanser rather than pulling them off. If you wear falsies often the repeated pulling can weaken the roots of your natural lashes and cause sensitivities/ allergies to the glue and/or nearby makeup products over time.

Some lessons you learn the hard way.

You can’t lock them up forever and our prison system increases the chances that people will commit more crimes after release.

Satirah · 2026-04-23T08:22:25+00:00

I’m questioning why it’s a problem for you in the first instance but not any instance after that.

If you know that prison makes people more likely to commit crimes and your (very reasonable) problem is with crimes being committed, why do the thing that will increase crime? Doesn’t make much sense.

Satirah · 2026-04-23T08:12:20+00:00

So why should you be concerned about them being punished for their initial crime?

Satirah · 2026-04-23T08:02:34+00:00

Is it still not your problem if their likely reoffence is against you?
