Bloody Amazon ads everywhere. Please don’t buy stuff off Amazon unless you have to. They are big bastards who really don’t give a fuck about you.

I really hope Origin Energy are paying Architecture in Helsinki an appropriate amount of money for stealing their song for that advert.

Absolutely devastated to hear of the passing of Mani. It’s hard to overstate what a massive impact the Roses had on my formative years and beyond. I could talk about it for hours, but this isn’t the time or place. Rest in peace Mani.

The news about Mani’s passing made me think of that quote that “people will never forget how you made them feel.” Mani’s bass made us all feel so much so often. (Drawing from Stuff_by_Mark) #RIPMani

Imagine losing most of your belongings in a house fire and just managing to keep a few valuables and having those confiscated to pay for fire service and rebuild. Your last few possessions. No choice.
There is no insurance for having to flee your home and your country for your life.

Alice Wong was one of the most effective people challenging the Whiteness of disability communities and its many flaws, but who believed fiercely in us as a community, in disabled people as oracles.
Alice brought so much to so many of us, it’s hard to measure the kind of gratitude I have for that.

Day 1 of no train line in Altona was as ridiculous as expected, aided and abetted by the simultaneous closure of Maidstone Street pushing all traffic into gridlock on Millers Road. Six months to go! Thanks Metro Trains!

Why does no one warn you about how little control over your eyebrows you have after 50? The full Gallagher every couple of days. 🤨
