At the re-installing of the sculpture Joy in Stanley St Darlinghurst, commemorating all the sex workers & street walkers who were once so common in the area.

Put back anew after a 30 year hiatus.

"there is a genocide *happening* in Gaza" ??

Seems that the passive voice is happening in this polling question.
🚨 NEW: 58% of Australians agree that a genocide is happening in Gaza, according to a YouGov poll commissioned by the Australia Palestine Advocacy Network

88% of Greens voters and 72% of Labor voters were among those who agreed with the UN report on Gaza

Going on a deep dive with the Irish musician, Enya ❤️

I’d totally forgotten that The Fugees didn’t credit her for using her song, “Boadicea”, without permission or credit

She eventually got an out of court settlement for an undisclosed amount, $3mill according to ChatGPT but not confirmed

Thinking Friday night thoughts about #Dior's ‘Venus’ gown of 1949. It’s a #frockingfabulous extravaganza of silk, rhinestones, faux pearls and sequins, via the Royal Ontario Museum.

I’m sitting here in my local Banh Mi eatery and they are not realising that the same song has been playing on repeat 🤣

It’s that power ballad “The Power of Love” by Jennifer Rush

I had to leave after the six repeat, the British in me just doesn’t want to cause a scene 👀

Don’t ever let Labor say there’s no money for essential services when Richard Marles says it’s budgeted $25 billion for submarine pens to support the U.S. Navy.

How on the nose can this usually quite amusing satirical paper be?

Seriously?????? It isn’t cause he’s black, it’s because he’s a homophobic maga loving twat

I’m really quite surprised by this and massively disappointed

I keep remembering that the US made a promise to protect Ukraine too. They’d be better off rearming themselves as protection, especially with a neighbour like Russia and that no one can rely on the the US
We had a deal. Russia violated it. Now, no deals should be accepted.

This is about the 100th article I've seen on the need for a robust public conversation about "the future of our foreign policy and alliance with the US".

That the Albanese govt is avoiding it should make us very worried.
And confirms its urgency. #AUKUS #auspol

How did we become a country, dominated by a hollow political class, so vacuous in speech & thought?
Marles the epitome of this dearth of ideas, ethics & talent, promoted so far above his merit - astonishingly Deputy PM.
We can only go backwards with such a gutless crew, controlled from the back room

Tuning into the @theshot.net.au

Great panel!

Hopefully someone will mention the idiocy of the police and authorities in not being bothered about a marathon with 90,000 people in Sydney today but were concerned about safety last week for the march against genocide, last week 👀

Are you tired of people who expect too much? Who want you to do something really good for a change?

Try new Albo’s Expectations Dampening Spray - now in new scents of Vanilla Disappointment, and Odourless Mandate.

It’s the gentler way to get people to pull their head in and shut the fuck up.
