Movies at the cinema were a treat and the TV was usually turned on after dinner for a short period during the week, and in the morning during breakfast on weekends.
Somewhere along the line we have all been conned into this almost dystopian existence of social isolation and lack of choice.
Suggest just supporting local businesses where you can. With regard to entertainment, I'm a GENX'er, we hardly watched television as kids, we were out on our bicycles, in our back gardens, playing board and card games, on rainy days, down at the pool or beach in the summer. 1/2

Ok Blue Sky, I think I've found a way to share my story despite the very narrow word limit. I'm a pretty private person & would normally not share my health on public socials, but I'm doing it for Medicare. It's long & I will be very grateful if you get thru it all.

Me too 🙂
Thank you, I haven't spent much time here, will do, good to see you here 🙂🙏
Labor builds. Dutton will tear down. Free TAFE is life-changing. Don't vote for Dutton's TAFE cuts. #auspol #AusVotes25
Dear @australianlabor.bsky.social,
Remind voters what the Albanese Labor Govt has achieved. And warn them what a tyrannical Dutton govt would do. #auspol #AusVotes25
Keep an eye on Dutton and Taylor lying about this #auspol
Inflation was at 6.1% when the LNP left office and is now at 2.4% under Labor. But of course, lying is permitted in political advertising. #auspol #AusVotes25

Love all of the above, hi new friend ☺️👋
Hi! Great to see you and thanks ☺️🙏💖
My time on Threads is coming to an end, haters from X are swarming all over it. I guess they weren't happy in their echo chamber with only each other to hate on. I'm focusing more on being present here.
So, who else loves Paddington bear? I have since I read the books as a child #Paddingtonbear
That is so beautiful, thank you for posting and wishing you well on your journey 💛
Hi Blue Sky world, mostly been hanging out on Threads because I get more engagement but I have a story to share, so I'm going to start posting on here more, algorithm please send my posts where they need to go. I am doing my bit to protect our Medicare system come next election here in Australia 🦘
Because it was never about data security
MAGAt fact check:
Government employees are sharing his cruel directives. I can't imagine how this is acceptable to his sheep.

Sorry guys, you can deny and make as many excuses as you like, Perception is reality, and we, the rest of the world, know what we saw

It occurred to me today that we may have misinterpreted one of Nostradamus's predictions.
He is widely reported as making this warning:
"Beware the yellow peril" which was taken to mean a certain country in Asia, however, I'm thinking, Orange and Yellow are pretty close on the colour wheel ......🤨🤔
Nations, sovereignty do not exist, Corporations and billionaires are our rulers.
The only divide they're interested in is themselves vs those they wish to enslave.
We are all the same to them, why can't we be the same to each other? If you're not mega wealthy then you're not one with them, wake up
Already is
The world is a lonely place for soft hearted introverts these days. If you practice tolerance and kindness, think for yourself, have a wicked sense of humour, don't mind the odd, friendly, debate, love Stephen King, Mark Hamill, dogs, and cats, you just might be my people. Please drop me a 👋 and a 🙂
Not all thanks very much, and I think you might be confusing your generations, I believe it was largely Boomers
In Australia it's part of the school curriculum to learn about economics. I've known about tariffs since high school, absolutely flawed me how many were so apparently ignorant in the USA
Just hurts my head, and I'm not even American. Am married to one and we live in Australia. He was so upset after the election, but for the moment, glad he's here in Aus. For the moment.. this anti democracy, divide and conquer strategy is global, neo liberalism protecting capitalism at all costs
