βAustralia must take this opportunity to get out of AUKUS, have an independent foreign policy that centres peace, and must not allow the use of Australian US military bases like Pine Gap in this conflict.β

in reply to Mr. 30γ ππ¦ π [nsfw.social] • • •The image shows a close-up view of a person's genital area. The skin appears to be light in color, with visible hair on the surrounding area. The focus is on a prominent, elongated structure that resembles a penis, with a bulbous tip. The skin on this structure is pinkish and appears to be slightly shiny, possibly due to moisture. The surrounding skin has a natural texture with fine hair. A hand is visible on the left side of the image, holding a black object, possibly a camera or phone, suggesting the image was taken by someone else. The background is dark, emphasizing the subject in the foreground.
