🧵Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:

At a country bus stop surrounded by a riot of flowers, a tiny human (2?) is waiting with Mum.
Tiny Human's hands are on his hips, eyes narrowed, watching the road.
Ever vigilant.
He's not sure when this bus is coming, but he's ready for it. (1)

Starting Jan 2026, Aussies could pay more for solar + home battery setups as rebates shrink — and global market forces might push prices even higher. ⚡🇦🇺

Thinking of going solar? Sooner might be smarter. ☀️🔋 #SolarEnergy #Australia #EnergySavings

As someone who helped run/ worked on democracy sausage sizzles for many years, I'd just like to say that even if you've already pre polled, PLEASE drop by your local public school tomorrow and treat yourself to something from the BBQ or cake stall. Your money goes to a good cause.

Duty done. Great work by the AEC and well behaved volunteers at my local polling booth. Celebrated with both a #democracysausage and bacon and egg roll. Democracy is delicious! #auspol #ausvotes2025

Every mainstream attempt to grapple with the rise of Tate and other misogynist ideologues have posed them as a product of men’s despair. Few have posited them as an assault on women’s safety and dignity.
We need to talk more about how it feels to be a woman amidst this sudden onslaught of “reclaiming masculinity,” celebrating male aggression and violence, and vanishing smart experienced women from positions of power.
