Everyone in Australia on the night of Tuesday, 11 August 2026 must be counted in the Census, including people on student, bridging, tourist, and any other kind of temporary or permanent visas. Completing it is compulsory under law. Households that don't respond receive a formal written direction, and refusing after that can lead to prosecution and fines of up to $364 a day. In this episode, Swati Sharma explains how to fill out the form, what to do if you're overseas on the night, the ancestry question, the religion question and how to identify Census related scams.

This week we return to one of our most beloved conversations from the archives, my talk with Dr. Mallory Hanfling, a fellow later in life queer woman, therapist, and the creator of the term Firefly. Mallory shares her story with such honesty. She married a kind man, built a genuine friendship with him, and still felt that something was quietly wrong. Like so many of us, she searched everywhere for an answer. Individual therapy, couples therapy, sex therapy, endless blood work, and doctors who offered birth control and even exploratory surgery. She was looking for a physiological explanation for a truth her spirit already knew. She is queer. Together we explore why the question "have you ever considered your sexuality" is so rarely asked, how compulsory heterosexuality teaches us to dismiss our own knowing, and why women are socialized to carry discomfort quietly rather than speak up for their own pleasure and peace. We also talk about opening a marriage as a bargaining stage of grief, what actually happens when a third person is brought into a struggling relationship, and the moment Mallory chose to end her marriage with love rather than let it end in heartbreak. And of course, we talk about fireflies. Mallory coined the term as a gender and sexuality expansive alternative to late bloomer language. Fireflies spend most of their lives underground, and when they finally emerge as their most authentic selves, they glow and bring joy to others. You do not need to have all the labels figured out to belong. If you are somewhere in the metamorphosis, this conversation is for you. Dr. Mallory Hanfling is a therapist in Philadelphia, licensed in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and Indiana. Her practice, Courage to Grow Counseling, serves the queer community with a focus on identity development, coming out, and connecting with one's most authentic self. Her doctoral research explores how community mitigates the impact of compulsory heterosexuality on the Firefly identity. Mallory's resources

When is a child legally required to attend school in New Mexico? State law generally requires students to stay enrolled from ages 5 through 18, with options including public, private, or home school and limited pathways for early exit through graduation, an equivalency credential, or a hardship waiver. Regular attendance is closely monitored, making it important for families to understand the rules and stay up to date with state requirements.
Your health is a compulsory business strategy – with Rainie Moss In this week's episode, I interview Rainie Moss, a health coach who helps people live and thrive after significant weight change. Rainie shares her journey from building a hugely successful Ann Summers business and leading a team of more than 150 people, to having bariatric surgery and facing the unexpected impact that major weight loss had on her health, identity, confidence and business. We talk about Rainie's years in direct selling, including the part she played in helping Ann Summers become more inclusive with its sizing, as well as being one of the early leaders using Facebook groups and live video to build a community and support customers. Rainie also speaks very honestly about life after weight loss surgery. Although her health began to improve, she found there was very little support available for everything that came afterwards, including loose skin, pain, changes in confidence, other people's reactions and no longer recognising the person she saw in the mirror. We discuss why weight loss is not the end of the journey, why the number on the scales should not become the focus, and the importance of learning how to nourish yourself, move safely and live well in a way that works for you. The conversation also covers the effect our health can have on our businesses. Rainie explains how trying to push through pain and exhaustion eventually affected her ability to support her team, and why looking after yourself needs to be treated as a compulsory part of your business strategy. Rainie's advice is to stop focusing on what you think you should be doing, take a step back and ask yourself what you need right now. And, in her words, throw your scales in the bin.

Subscribe to LMSU's Patreon for a chat on Diesel Fuel Tax Credits! This week our Bonus episode includes Alison, Frankie, Luke and Tennant breaking down what is going on with the various pushes to remove, reform - and preserve! - diesel fuel tax credits. Run, don't walk, over to www.letmesumup.net and subscribe to our Patreon to check it out. — Your intrepid welcome back super friend of the pod and sometime co-host Alison Reeve as we boot Luke out for a chat on two things LMSU's unimpeachable governance has determined he can have no say in! First up, it's been two laps around the sun since our deep dive into the 2024 Integrated System Plan and so into the 2026 ISP we must dive! What's different from the last one? Well, in news that some of us energy wotchers will find comforting, this is a bit more boring than the last ISP because the central scenario is broadly pretty consistent with the last one! Data centre load hype replaces hydrogen load hype, batteries continue to eat into the role for gas but a bit more gas capacity is needed - how to finance this remains a key question! We also ponder the extent to which constraints on the ISP to reflect current government policies well into the future and reflect vastly different pictures across states is at all realistic. Our main course This Menzel-free main course is serving Big G GOVERNANCE as we tuck into Power Dynamics: Energy Governance in Australia, authored by long time climate and energy policy knower Rob Murray-Leach for the Energy Efficiency Council and RACE for 2030 CRC. It follows previous work from the EEC, ACOSS, Australian Industry Group and Property Council of Australia and contains a cornucopia of common sense ideas. Central to the reform philosophy proposed is a better balance of centralised and decentralised elements, and coordinating institutions and resources to focus on the tasks they're best suited to. Simples, right? One more things Alison's One More Thing is: the NSW Government's current parliamentary inquiry into an EV road user charge and the potential for more constitutional challenges! Governments really need to decide who's doing what here (lookin at you Commonwealth). Tennant's One More Thing is: Blithering ballpark numbers for space-based sunshades (solar powersat and sailcraft versions!) to mask global warming, buying time for emissions reductions without spraying sulphur or diamond dust in the stratosphere.TL;DR is there are easier ways to solve climate change change guys. Frankie's One More Thing is: a HUMUNGOUS shoutout to all the folks who have been working on and advocating for a national home energy rating system for the last two decades - it is finally here! Go check it out at https://www.homeenergyrating.gov.au/. Now let's giddyup on mandatory disclosure please! Luke's One More Thing is: Pauline Hanson's National Press Club address. Compulsory viewing for climate and energy wonks concerned with understanding the seismic shifts in Australian politics and how this impacts efforts to combat climate change. And that's it for now, Summerupperers. There is now a one-stop-shop for all your LMSU needs: head to letmesumup.net to support us on Patreon, procure merch, find back episodes, and leave us a voicemail!

The Salvation army is criticising National's plans for compulsory KiwiSaver, saying "if people are struggling today to meet the basics, we can't expect them to save for tomorrow. National wants to make KiwiSaver compulsary with workers paying six percent of their income into the scheme and employers matching it by April 2032.
Almost all New Zealanders chose to not opt out of increasing their KiwiSaver payments. Minimum contributions increased from 3 percent in April to 3.5, although people could remain at 3 percent if they wished. Finance Minister Nicola Willis says it's important the Government set out their direction to increase contributions further." "Setting the direction out now makes it clear where we're going, it gives everyone time to adjust." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A Clare local elected representative is calling on the Transport Minister to make the wearing of hi-vis jackets mandatory for pedestrians and cyclists. Whitegate Fine Gael Councillor Pat Burke is seeking the measure as means of making walking and cycling safer on rural roads in particular. As his motion on the subject was carried at this week's meeting of Clare County Council, the local authority will now write to Minister for Transport requesting that it be enshrined in law. Councillor Burke says he can't understand why everyone who takes to the roads in the evenings doesn't already wear a hi-vis.
When I first heard about Winston Peters' idea to give every newborn baby $1,000 so they can have a KiwiSaver account from birth, I liked the sound of it. Until I did some numbers. Which I'll get to. Announcing the NZ First policy yesterday, he said it would be compulsory for every newborn to be signed-up to KiwiSaver and the state would throw in $1,000 to get things started. He said the policy would ensure every child began their financial life as a KiwiSaver member and would be a nest egg for what he's calling “the KiwiSaver generation”. Which sounded pretty good on first blush. Until I did some numbers. Let's start with what it would cost the government. There were about 58,000 births in New Zealand last year. So, on those numbers, that would put the cost of this policy at around $58 million a year. And what would that $1,000 government contribution, on its own, be worth after 65 years? Assuming 4 percent interest for 65 years, it would come to $12,800. If we assumed 7 percent over 65 years, it would come to about $80,000. And, when I consider those numbers - plus the tens of millions of dollars of government money every year for that kind of return - I think it's a dud of an idea. But Winston does have another KiwiSaver idea that I think is an absolute no brainer. Making it compulsory. Winston and I are not on our own thinking this. Sam Stubbs, who is managing director of the Simplicity KiwiSaver outfit, does too. He says it has to be compulsory because we have to make sure everybody is saving for their retirement while they're working. And the only way to do that is to make it compulsory. Across the Tasman, it's compulsory for employers to contribute but not for workers. Which doesn't sound terribly fair to me. Because why should employers be forced to make contributions if the people who work for them aren't? I remember reading about the number of people who don't have a KiwiSaver account and some work that had been done to work out how much people are missing out on because of that. Collectively, with so many people not even saving the minimum 3 percent of gross salary, the KiwiSaver pot is going to be about $110 billion less than what it should be or could be if we all had an account we were putting money into. And it's not just the people who don't have accounts. About a third of those of us who do have KiwiSaver accounts aren't contributing anything. Which is why it has to be made compulsory. And it's not like people would be out marching in the streets if it was made compulsory. Because a survey a couple of years ago found that 62 percent of us support the idea. I don't know if that level of support may have waned since then because of the cost of living. Nevertheless, making KiwiSaver compulsory for workers is a no-brainer and a way better approach than NZ First's idea of making it compulsory for newborns.

Plato's totalitarian paternalistic state has finally been actualized — and today every secular government believes it must control the education of children. Yet there are signs that this cannot continue. In 1985 America, no one was homeschooled — today, 7% are. Support for public schools has plummeted to just 29%.

The primary teachers' union is doing my head in. This country needs fewer people like them and more people wanting to get on with it, get ahead, dream big, be bold, work harder and generally look at life in a more upbeat way. The latest problem for the union is they want facilitated bargaining. I bet they do. Unlike just about everyone else union based who has signed a deal, the primary teachers lot think they are so special and so different that the fact they can't reach a deal like everyone else must be someone else's fault. My line, and it's always been this way, is have a structure, a couple of cracks, a bit of back and forward, a best and final offer and then if you can't agree go to compulsory arbitration. Not facilitated. Make it compulsory. You argue your case, the decision is made and that's the end of that. These cases we have seen of late all go on for literally months, and all end up literally the same. In the recent cases everyone has got about 2% this year and 2% next. That is not a result that required that amount of angst and anger and walk outs and placards and TV news stories with moaning unionists talking about unfairness and shortages. What the unions have never quite gripped is social licence. The broad idea of unions representing the most vulnerable of workers is not a bad one. But like so many of these things, it's turned into an industry where hundreds of people on large salaries rely on division and upset to have a job. Happy workers do not make happy unionists and teachers especially are not vulnerable. Cleaners are vulnerable. Teachers are largely on six figure salaries. On a bang for buck basis unions don't pull their weight. They are not worth it. Stalling is not a productive tactic, and placards are last centuries technique. Compulsory arbitration – I dare them to give it a go. It's short, it's sharp, it ticks a box and we can all move on. But why would you want to solve an issue quickly when your very existence relies on the opposite? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Senator Alex Antic is a member of the Liberal Party representing South Australia in the federal parliament since 2019. In this wide-ranging conversation, he opens up about how COVID-19 became his political awakening, admitting he was "far too cavalier" in trusting government and bureaucracy before the pandemic revealed how easily institutional power can be weaponized against citizens. Senator Antic was the only senator to vote against Australia's recent hate speech legislation, walked away from party pressure, and currently fights to repeal "no jab no pay" laws that withhold government benefits from families who don't comply with childhood immunization schedules. We examine the broader pattern: an alarming expansion of state control over just 18 months including hate speech laws, hate crime laws, firearms restrictions, digital ID frameworks, and the under 16 social media ban, all targeting free speech & other human rights.

In light of a growing threat from Russia, Federal Defense Minister Boris Pistorius wants to significantly increase the Bundeswehr's operational readiness. But the army is short of personnel. With the “Military Service Modernization Act” adopted in December, the Federal Government has therefore introduced a new military service: Starting this year, it is officially voluntary — but at the same time mandatory physical inspections for young men born from 2008 will be introduced. But what happens if the target number of new recruits is missed? Do young German men have to prepare for the return of compulsory military service? - Angesichts der wachsenden Bedrohung durch Russland will Bundesverteidigungsminister Boris Pistorius die Einsatzbereitschaft der Bundeswehr deutlich erhöhen. Doch der Armee fehlt es an Personal.

Doch was passiert, wenn dieses Ziel verfehlt wird? Müssen sich junge deutsche Männer auf die Rückkehr der Wehrpflicht einstellen?

He stands victorious over satan out of His great love for us, His creation. He stands triumphant, renouncing the deeds of the flesh, ushering us into God's kingdom by His miraculous Incarnation.

We report on the increasing amounts of waste dumped in the countryside and how to tackle it.As party conference season continues, we're hearing from most of the major parties on their farming and rural policies. Agricultural policy is devolved and with elections for the Welsh Parliament in May next year, Plaid Cymru's conference this weekend may well be seen as a launch for that election campaign.Farmers whose land was compulsorily purchased say they're frustrated that they still can't buy it back. Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
In this episode, we sit down with London-based cinematographer Jerry Amadi-Pradon, whose eye for visual storytelling was shaped on the sunlit sets of Guadeloupe and sharpened through years behind the camera across Europe and beyond. From painting and photography to the world of moving images, Jerry's path has always followed the light. He began with TV dramas for France Télévisions and has since grown into a bold visual artist with a unique signature.We explore Jerry's transition from assistant to auteur, capturing everything from high-profile commercials for Adidas and Volkswagen to fashion films for designers like Tolu Coker. His work weaves through narrative and documentary forms, always grounded in an emotional truth that carries from scene to scene. With collaborations at production houses like Compulsory and Soho House, Jerry has built a portfolio that speaks for itself.Jerry takes us behind the lens of A Letter to Black Men, a poignant web series adapted from Kiosa Sukami's acclaimed short. In this conversation, he breaks down the visual language he crafted to honor Black identity and vulnerability, and what it meant to help bring that story to a larger audience. His words are as measured as his frames, and the intent behind every choice is unmistakable.More than a cinematographer, Jerry is a storyteller with a painter's patience and a traveler's eye. Join us as we talk about long-form dreams, small moments of magic on set, and the enduring power of an image to move, to question, and to connect.Jerry Amadi-Pradon's Website: https://www.jerrypradon.com/Jerry Amadi-Pradon's IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4013190/?ref_=ext_shr_lnkJerry Amadi-Pradon's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jerry_amadi_pradon_dop/Jerry Amadi-Pradon's Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/jeysurvimeoJerry Amadi-Pradon's LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/jerry-amadi-pradon-a2366a27Support the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante
A few nations have shut down homeschooling entirely, and others are about to follow suit. Parents do not have the choice. This year, at least one state wants to impose a DEI program on homeschoolers. Where did this compulsory attendance law come from, and what is the worldview that requires state control of the children? Before Jean-Jacques Rousseau there was Prussia and Christian Wolfe; and Wolfe lived up to his name. We analyze the Pelagian view of man that infected the lapsed Christians of Germany and America in the 18th and 19th Centuries.
