Today is National Sorry Day. I want to say sorry for the Stolen Generations. Sorry for the record numbers of First Nations children in out of home care today. We need to understand this is not the past, the injustices and trauma continue. We must Listen. Learn. Act

One of my friends knows that I’ve been a bit down since the election so she sent me a deck of affirmation cards to cheer me up.

My favorite is this one.

Every male chef who claims they learned the art of cooking from their mother or grandmother, but does not support or promote female chefs in professional kitchens is a misogynistic thief.

#Murdoch is behind #Labor’s #SocialMedia ban for children, not because he cares about children, but because he cares about controlling information.

Nah, the social media ban has nothing to do with Rupert Murdoch, not at all. (Herald Sun, 29/11/24, p.11)

“News Corp launches a campaign to ban social media for under-16s”

Bizarre thing happened to me yesterday that my teenage self would not believe. I was playing at the gig to celebrate the life of the genius that was Neil Innes. Whilst waiting backstage to go on, Michael Palin sang the lumberjack song to me, in German.

So now India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and USA are looking into Adani’s bribery.

Should the #NACC be doing the same given how hard some of our politicians fought for their mine approval 🤔

The way the governments behave is sending the opposite message.
Prosecuting whistleblowers, allowing Robodebt perpetrators to avoid accountability, allowing ff corps to do what they like against community wishes, weasel words in a genocide, treatment of the most vulnerable ..
Be the change.
