My only religion is social justice. It doesn't exist, but you have to have faith. Kiwi.aussie, neuroscience rocks, books, chocolate, cats and wine make life brilliant!
What’s with the rumours Bluesky is deleting pro Palestine accounts and/or posts? Anyone have proof? I hope it isn’t true.

Morning from Kyiv.
It was a terrible night here.
As of now, there is information about nine people killed in Kyiv; 70 others were injured.
Some people are still missing.
I will have a #warcoffee and a sip of life.

Today I remember ~1,000 First Nations People who served in WWI.
Not recognised as citizens & while serving Australia the government stole their land & children from mothers.
Lest we forget all who served, especially those they attempt to erase from history.

Met these great rangatahi (teens) and their horses down at Waikanae Beach this evening.
Filming them on the beach as I walked on the boardwalk made for some great footage.
(Background is the waters of Tūranganui-a-Kiwa / Poverty Bay and the cliffs Te Kurī-a-Pāoa.)

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

This is why you fight these cowards.
The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.
Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.
He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

According to the ABC’s Ita Buttrose, a journalist isn’t critical of Israel -
This would be funny if it wasn’t so dangerous, racist, & supportive of genocide.

Morning from Kyiv.
The night?
I woke up to the work
of air defence.
As I read, russians targeted
multiple regions of Ukraine
with drones.
I already had a #warcoffee
Let’s live this new day!

On its launch day - Ronni’s book #Gunnawah - has reached Amazon’s Top 10 Best Sellers - in all 3 versions - Kindle, paperback & Audible.
This is apparently uncommon - and this is also absolutely brilliant!! 🎉🎉🎉🙌🙌🙌 #auspol
Congratulations Ronni. So very well done 👏
