I am struggling to comprehend that I am living in a time when my government (and a Labor government at that), the opposition, the establishment media and other assorted 'social commentators' are telling me to love and support Nazism, now labelled 'Zionism.'

I mean ... no. Fuck off. #GazaGenocide

Every billionaire is a policy failure.

Every defence of billionaires falsely assumes nothing would get invented or built if we didn't have billionaires

I rely on Ian’s bread to know what day of the week it is…. 🍞

And the lines all our nations have allowed Israel to wilfully stomp over will come back on all of us. There is no international law now. No one is safe. Nothing they do matters. You could see 40,000 babies burned in a room and it would barely make a ripple in the mainstream. I’m so, so broken

We are just moments away from Senator Babet tweeting about Lizard Illuminati from the Orion constellation who enjoy the taste of human flesh running a Cubarb in Parliament House. #auspol #ausvotes #qanda

I’m cooking roast potatoes tonight for dinner, hope it’s a portent 🥔
