Imagine being a Temu Morrison.

Correct. Can confirm as an Australian. We stopped laughing ages ago.

Plibersek, Rishworth & Spender are all demanding respect from the protesters. Not a word about police brutality. Just appalling.

That’s beautiful- pattern?

A friend use to row with Bernardi - denser than oar was there estimation.

To Senator Pauline Hanson: Pauline Hanson is a fraud.

Nice set of needles.

I have a strong sense of Déjà vu. Abbott/Morrison are unelectable… and yet they were. Sure Dutton proved to be exactly that, but he was never as popular as Joyce & Hanson. As climate change impacts worsen & the world order crumbles, people will seek certainty- even if it’s false.

Dunkirk is wonderful. I’ve watched it several times and each time I’m still invested in the characters’ stories. To be fair, Mark Rylance can do no wrong.

I had the same discussion with myself yesterday. Even searched ‘ethical’ tech. (Spoiler, they don’t exist). Least worst option is all you’ve got.

Was there on Saturday night - Joy was possibly my favourite song of the night, in a night of incredible highlights. Sometimes it was a wall of sound, but overall an amazing & generous performance. Perfect ending.

Nick Cave arriving onstage for an unbelievable 2.5hrs of performance. The Bad Seeds were fantastic and his back up singers were stunning. 5 stars.

Is there about to be a mass exodus of Nationals to One Nation? Are we seriously about to see Pauline Hanson become the de facto opposition leader? You opened the door to this John Howard.

That is surely an episode if Utopia. How ridiculously believable.

Apparently Bannon hopes for a more MAGA style govt in Australia. We had a chance to vote for that in May 25 & overwhelmingly rejected it. Please may it continue.

So do Australians. I would say that you have voted more than twice to be bullies and thugs. US interference in sovereign nations has been going on for decades.

Having worked with people living with dementia, this is not how they behave. He may well have cognitive decline issues, but labelling this appalling behaviour as ‘dementia’ is unhelpful. It is bullying and self serving grift.

Now look at what the US has done in SE Asia and the Middle East. The list is long.

As an Australian I can tell you that the US has not been considered an exemplar of Western Values for a long time. Now you are considered an outright threat.

Hope you improve quickly.

My husband had this over Christmas. Took a while to shake, definitely viral as antibiotics made no difference. He’s fine now.

Such a good book. Highly recommend her book, Wifedom about Eileen O’Shaughnessy, wife of George Orwell. There are so many great Aus women writers!

This isn’t a polite spat between neighbours, it is an orchestrated campaign designed to silence critics. I’m sure Cathy Wilcox is quite able to chose her own path of action without ‘helpful suggestions’.

‘Dignified silence’ is not the answer when you’re actively being silenced and censored.

Deeply embarrassed that Arts institutions in Australia are not supporting a free and vigorous exchange of ideas. Adelaide Writers Festival’s dropping of Randa Abdul-Fattah for no reason other than being Palestinian is appalling & racist.

Godfather to one of his children, as is Nicole Kidman.

No this was in NSW & was all about cafe owners & cost of living.

Hamnet and One Battle After Another

Saw them live at the Sydney Opera House last weekend- sensational! So much joy in the audience. They still have it & then some.

I don’t know anything about US football, but I can suggest the English Cricket team. #theashes
