I’m at school tonight for a ‘Budget Night Party’. Sadly no booze for us! But we will be playing ‘Budget Bingo’

Ah people in airports.

Whenever I spend time in one I end up wondering how much time anthropologists & behavioural economists / psychologists have spent studying them

As Joelle Georgie states in her Quarterly Essay ‘Highway To Hell’ - the failure of current generations to shut down the fossil fuel industry is an ‘inter generational crime against humanity’ #climateemergency

Best description of GAI in quite some time:

Pretty much all you need to know about NewsCorpse.

I cannot believe that company & its owner get to effectively dictate Australian politics & debate.

Thank you for your work Professor. I am re-reading your Qtrly Essay at the moment. Thank you for reminding us we CANNOT look away. I love that you’re prepared to say ‘We need you to stare into the abyss with us and not turn away’

Today is the 40th birthday of Australia’s (also flawed but really fucking important & impressive) single-payer, universal healthcare system, Medicare. So grateful for it - with all its faults. Just need to keep defending + improving it. #DentalIntoMedicare

#CriticalMass tonight! Cycled around Fitzroy & Richmond for about 1.5hrs. Now rallying outside Richmond Town Hall to protest #Yarra Council attempt to remove safe cycling infrastructure- FABULOUS! 🚴🏻‍♀️🚲

Still reading #MeanStreak by @squigglyrick.bsky.social … have to put it down regularly. It takes me a while to digest the horror therein.

Currently fangirling over the magnificence of Colleen Taylor. We’re all indebted to her.

Bless YOU Mr Morton.

I think you are one of Australia’s best writers on social issues / commentary - especially in how you expose the fault lines in our ‘common wealth’ & our supposedly equitable & egalitarian (ha!!!) society 😘😘😘

Keep it up - we need you.
