Here is my peace plan for Ukraine/Russia.
1. Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine.
2. Putin goes on trial in the Hague.
3. Russia pays everyone for everything.
4. Trump gets impeached, convicted, and sent to jail.
Thanks for your attention to this matter.

I can't believe how they promised the dying Peta Murphy MP to do something about #gambling, yet have done nothing.
So disappointing, so badly needed.
One has to ask, "WHY"?

I met Alice through #Disbility twitter when it was completely new to me but our communities were still together there.
Alice had zero ego. She is friendly, compassionate, a force of nature.
We had fun convos, hard convos. She was really good at giving advice, listening.

Once refused a haircut and called ‘contagious’, she’s beating the stigma of vitiligo through powerlifting
After white patches appeared on her skin in her mid-20s, Daphne Loo faced stares, whispers and discrimination. Then she discovered powerlifting – a sport that not only made her stronger but also helped her embrace being different and find confidence in herself.

Given the NSW police found no evidence of Iranian involvement in the arson attacks, I strongly suspect ASIO is now a Mossad asset.

The ongoing genocide is conclusive evidence that the “cursed promise” was not a page that turned, but a continuous project of destruction and erasure. It is time for justice to erase this promise from humanity’s memory. #auspol #Palestine

On 2 November 1917, Britain wrote with the ink of politics what it had no right to write with the ink of history.

You don’t have to mourn war criminals. You don’t have to issue condolences to their families.
You don’t have to launder their legacies.
Save your grief for the innocents they killed, maimed or tortured without ever seeing justice served to their executioners.

One day we will look back at the #MelbourneCup and wonder why as a society we allowed glorious horses to be mistreated, exploited & abused just so we could gamble & get drunk. There’s no entertainment to be had in the suffering of animals. They deserve dignity & safety like us. #NupToTheCup
