the thing about grief is everyone’s like “it’ll never get smaller but you’ll grow around it” and yeah that’s true. i definitely have grown around my grief and it’s not constantly all-consuming anymore. but it hasn’t gotten smaller, and i don’t think people realise what that means. i think people figure it’ll feel smaller because they did grow around it, but it just means that it’s on the back of your mind now instead of at the forefront. you can do things and live your life without constantly only thinking of your grief. but sometimes it will also make itself known, and the sheer enormity of your grief will overwhelm you because ultimately it’s the same size as the day it arrived
this feels like a bit. i know it’s not but this is so absurd that it feels like it’s right out of arrested development

the rest of the paragraph that was cut out in that screenshot literally explains the reasons behind the easter bilby and bluntly theyre minimising the impact that wild rabbits have had as an introduced species in our ecosystem.
the easter bibly was an ingenious campaign that builds in social awareness and change to an ongoing annual tradition without detracting from what that tradition represents. the choice behind it was intentional
It also puts the bibly at the front and center, which is important, because bilby were once widespread in Australia, but due to the threat of habitat loss, disease, and predation by invasive species in Australia, like foxes, these little guys have dwindled in numbers.
You can learn more about bilby conservation here, as well as get links to other resources, and, if you're a bilby fan, some access to bilby merch. I think I see some chocolate Easter bilby in there, too!
horror movie enjoyers will be having a terrible day and be like fuuuuuck i need to unwind….maybe nows the time to finally check out shit piss deathfest 2 . For a bit of lighthearted entertainment
Trump is going to lift those tariffs btw. Like we're gonna feel it and it'll suck, and then he will lift them, and things will improve, and people won't realize that things were still better before he put them in place at all, and he will claim credit for making everything better even though things are still worse than when he started. Because of him. Because he made them worse.
So you gotta pinky promise me you're not gonna let yourself or anyone you know fall for that shit.
some of you have GOT to get comfortable with lying and situational morality and i'm not kidding
I have just one question:Where are you?Where have you gone, people?I need just one answer.Today, I saw a small child, no older than a year, with an amputated leg.Yes… an amputated leg.I felt sorrow for him, but the first thought that struck me was:How does his mother feel? How can a mother bear to see her beloved child like this?And his only fault? That he was born in Gaza.
I write a lot because I’m afraid…Afraid that the phrase “The world forgot Gaza, and it died in silence” will take over me.So, I keep writing to you seeking a glimpse of hope, of light, of support.Do you know why?Because I am like a drowning person clinging to a straw.And that straw… is you.You, with your support, your sincere love, your humanity.
Please help a pregnant mother one who waited years to be blessed with a child.Help her… for you are the hope. Or paypal
I trust in your humanity...

HOLY SHIT GUYS, I WAS INSPIRED BY THIS POST TO TRY MAKE THE SONG AND YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE THE SCREAM I SCRUMPT WHEN I DRAGGED THE TRAINING AUDIO OVER THE BACKING TRACK AND IT LINED UP PERFECTLY
Tempted to actually put this on spotify so I can secretly stream it at work...
Tagging @batshit-auspol because as an Australian you're the only big account I know who might share (sorry).
holy shit, just got home, and there's thousands of messages from people asking how they can download this since I posted this morning (!?!)
guys I've done a super rushed submission to spotify and apple music on the off chance this somehow accidentally slips past their profanity filters (unlikely but would be hilarious if it does)
But god this cannot go viral. Please don't make this my legacy guys. Imagine having to explain this one to my grandparents.
AGFDKLGDFK IT GOT ACCEPTED BY SPOTIFY 😭
THIS IS SO FUNNY.
Also because so many people have been asking It's also on Youtube until they inevitably nuke it from existence, or you can just download it straight from tumblr Sorry I haven't gotten to all your very kind DMs but, yes yes yes you absolutely can play this at your club, drag show, or even more than one of you have asked if its okay to play it at your wedding. Please for all that is holy, send video if you do.
Now I'm going to go lie face down on the floor.
We weren't gonna reblog, because well *gestures*, but then you said you didn't want this to become your legacy and as an Australian it's therefore our sworn duty to ensure it absolutely 100% does.
Also the song slaps.
(Big language warning, in case the big word 'slur' wasn't a dead giveaway)
"without modifying" how dare you insult the hard work of our landlords
"Joy is an act of resistance" is becoming a comparable phrase to "I'm keeping you in my prayers." It's a nice sentiment and it FEELS better than saying nothing but it doesn't actually require you to do anything so it's not especially helpful on its own. When I was a kid my mom was hospitalized for several months and our family got a lot of prayers but we definitely remembered the folks who backed up those prayers with a casserole. Make sure you back it up with a casserole in 2025.
