Preferential voting advocate.

Australians: Preferential voting means your vote is never wasted. It helps small groups and young politicians, because you can give them your vote even if you think they are unlikely to get in.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

I hope I dont need to explain to any Australians that this is satire.
just got out of an uber. the driver was telling me how he has to work 16 hour days, seven days a week, at two different jobs to afford rent. he doesn't have healthcare and he worries about retirement. "i would feel a lot better if we owned greenland," he told me. then he cried.

thanks to our HPV immunisation program, and free cervical screening tests (incl. self tests, which are equally accurate to clinician performed tests and have greatly increased screening rates in high risk groups), Australia's on track to eliminate cervical cancer as a public health concern by 2035 💪
