I found it interesting that the people losing seats in the Australian election are older white men. The people who won seats are a diverse group of younger people: many more women and people reflecting our cultural diversity.

My faith is restored. We have rejected oligarchy and the culture wards. Democracy and decency are alive and well in Australia 🇦🇺.

The latest cost of eggs where we shop. The prices are in Aussie dollars. When converted to US$, the cheapest is over $12, and the most expensive carton of 12 is around $20 (jumbo sized). We are in Western Australia, where grocery prices are higher than some other states.

I think something that the US needs to reflect seriously on is this idea of dominance over the rest of the world. Why do you need to be dominant?

I feel seen! We are managing a growing financial and practical demands of caring for elderly parents. At the same time, we are supporting young adult children to fledge. I know I'm not alone.

The protests are not for Trump to see, they are so you can all see each other and grow. It's not the protest itself that tyrants are afraid of, but the networks and community you can grow from them. Your strength is your unity and that's why the enemy thrives by demoralizing and dividing you. #3E
