My producer sent this to me and off the headline I was like "oh right, so she got hit by a loose round"... but then when you see it... like, that officer saw she was a reporter and shot her ~on camera~. Absolutely wild. Hope @laurentomasi.bsky.social is ok.

Drive it like you stole it, stop fucking around, deal with climate change, poverty, and deal with inequality to pay for it. Deal with industry transition, deal with education costs, accept that large investments in ourselves today pay for more than themselves in the future. And dental in Medicare

Looks as though the politics of grievance is not our thing. Something to be glad of.

The purpose of ANZAC Day is not 'to commemorate veterans and their service to the country'. Where did that Yank shit come from, ABC News?
The purpose was, used to be, to remember, and not to forget, the evils of war.

Great news for Australia: The lead is 300.
Terrible news for Australia: Scott Boland looks comfortable batting on this pitch.

Finally, a bowling captain, we all thought.
But no.
Like some kind of Ponting clone, Cummins is still required to bat. Every. Time.

‘Live in the light, but carry the dark’: John Marsden’s books are his legacy – but so is his empathy
John Marsden, the bestselling author of the Tomorrow series (and more than 40 books altogether) has died. His difficult early life fed his many decades of writing for young people and teaching them.

The day you learn that gutters exist and *you* need to clean them, that’s when the last magic of childhood falls away. You literally can’t see Peter Pan after that. bsky.app/profile/apf....
this thunderstorm is making me so smug. I cleaned the gutters, cleared out the drains, and tested my sump pumps last week like a goddamned adult. I need to call my father in law to tell a dad about it
