Golly Gee I wonder if the ALP will support Turnbull's Newstart cuts while the current system shovels impaired people onto Newstart

Recoome posted:This point is actually really interesting, because I'd argue that it's definitely a responsibility for clinical psychologists (clinical is where I have the most exposure anyway, part of the job), and I'd even argue it's an ethical responsibility. What is the counter-argument to this? There's a general trend away from unpaid work in general because of concerns about insurance, professional boundaries, and creating a culture of expectation (if one psych does it, government agencies might start expecting it of other psyches). Also, there's a broad feeling that clinical psychology should be concerned mainly with the process of therapy and that prognosis and expectation isn't something we're well trained in. For the purpose of our own internal assessment, developing an understanding of how much we can expect a client to improve with treatment is fine but when we start commenting on that fact in external reports, it begs the question of whether we're truly qualified to assess that since prognostic assessment isn't really part of our formal training. But some also don't want to wade into that territory due to professional liability concerns; like I said, it's unpaid work and if an assessing GP or psychiatrist decides to take issue with your report, now you're being put in a position where you have to defend yourself for an action that you were performing as an act of charity in the first place which can erode your professional reputation and credibility. I've taken a more haphazard and belligerent approach to my practice because I'm completing my medical degree next year and any burned bridges I leave behind in psychology likely won't hold me back. Consequently, I write a lot of reports to support DSP applications, coach people through the process of appeals and even call assessing GPs on their behalf to consult with them on their own reports to give my clients the best chance they have for their application. To date, I haven't encountered any liability concerns so it's likely that other professionals are just being overcautious.

I remember when I thought Triple J played alternative music too. Must be pretty underground if you have to go to the alternative rack in Sanity to buy it. Also lol at Roy and HG being radicals.

I can't imagine a world where one would perceive the QandA guy and Dr Karl as radical. The latter's crowning achievement was discovering the composition of lint because nobody had thought to check before. But I guess he wears a loud shirt which everyone knows that means he's a crypto-Trotskyite.

His whole thing is making science and education fun, which is a pretty laudable thing, and I remember having and liking some of his books growing up. I didn't know he discovered the composition of lint, but that's honestly a pretty nice little claim to fame. Science and facts are, of course, extremely radical to people working at The Australian.

His other claim to fame was completely blowing his reputation doing the ad spots for Abbott's intergenerational report.

He works for the ABC strike 1 and he's a guy with doctor in front of his name who isn't a geologist strike 2 and he doesn't dress like he's prepared for the rapture strike 3. No wonder his name is dogshit to the Murdoch right.

Tony Abbott is visiting my old hometown and surrounding Aboriginal communities, local paper is scanty with details but they do have a photo of him trying to be down with the country kids. I'm sure people will love him and have forgotten all about him pushing to close remote communities and cutting essential community services.
