Concerned for our planet and all its life. Concerned for fair and just societies. Most of my life on Wathaurong land - small town, regional city, the magnificent coast. Many years in teaching but fled the sexism.

There was a time when American presidents lectured Putin and made him look small. Now, it's the other way around.

"NSW Police say they were lucky the crowd was peaceful" (Guardian Aust). No. They were peaceful because this is who we are. 100,000 people trying to stop a war, not start one. Well done Sydney. #auspol #freepalestine. (Edited).

You know how AUKUS doesn’t make sense. Well it kind of does. End AUKUS.

Painful to watch, and absolutely shameful the abc has been pushing Israel's propaganda, even in the face of genocide

How in the goddamn fuck do we live in a world where nobody would need the release of the Epstein List if we just … stay with me here … believed the testimonies of the dozens of women raped and abused by the men who are on it?

So important to have medicos you trust and can talk to. Appointment sounds really good!

Why won't anyone ask the follow up question? Trump says Epstein stole Giuffre so he kicked him out of Mar-a-Lago. But that wasn't until SEVEN YEARS LATER.
REPORTER: Do you know Epstein was taking those young women, including Virginia Giuffre?

TRUMP: No, I didn't know. I figured it would be ABC fake news that would ask that question. One of the worst. But no I don't know really why.

So kids at age 12 are eligible to do adult time for adult crime, but are not allowed to access internet social media...

Me thinks we are punishing children for our inadequate parenting...

"Two leading human rights organisations based in Israel, B’Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights, say Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza and the country’s western allies have a legal and moral duty to stop it."

Israel committing genocide in Gaza, say Israel-based human rights groups
Reports detailing intentional targeting of Palestinians as a group, and systemic destruction of Palestinian society, add to pressure for action

Ohh, @senatorwong.bsky.social. Really??? You can comfortably say this in the Senate?
I had a physical shudder response to that photo.
I love Tom Hiddleston.

It is an obscenity that this woman sits in judgment over Australians while she defends the perpetrators of this atrocity.

Palestinians deliberately starved of food by the Israeli govt while this taxpayer funded, multi-millionaire sits in her govt office telling us what we should think about it.

I realise it's beyond the wit of routine journalism to meaningfully contextualise, but i'd have thought if you were reporting a Trump 'trade deal' it's important to mention that it's only solving a problem of his making, and is an act of unconstitutional state extortion. stop normalising this crap.

We'll never again need to speculate on what a narcissistic sociopath would do in the most far-fetched hypothetical scenarios, because all those questions have now been answered
