Good morning and happy #libspill day to all who celebrate!

In light of her new role, Sussan will now be know as Susssan.

We are very fortunate. Just had an impromptu neighbourhood post election meeting on my porch in Marrickville 😂 with all political colours. Started with 3 of us and others joined in as they walked by. All respectful of each other’s views. Marrickville pretty buoyant today!

Labor landslide! And ironically, a nuclear winter for the Libs.

Richard! I’m so sorry I’ve been completely offline. How are you? Thinking of you and sending love xxx

A very good boy! 🥰

I don’t either. I like caramello koalas and strawberry freddos. 🤷‍♀️

Ita is one of those women who claims to be a feminist but pulls the ladder up behind her. I have zero evidence of this but you can just smell it! The worst!

Just looking through the website. I recognise this old playbook 🙄🙄

Thanks. He was one of a kind. ❤️

A wonderful, kind man with a wickedly funny sense of humour. David Polson will be missed by so many, myself included. Go gently, David. Thank you for everything. You’ve earned a rest. ❤️❤️

A wonderful, kind and very funny man. David will be greatly missed by so many, myself included.

Me too! ❤️

That’s terrible poor bloke!

As Trump moves the Overton window of mainstream opinion into the fucking gutter, it will be journalists that do the heavy lifting, normalising this moral rot. You'll see it in their language, in their framing and focus, in their unchallenged repetition of his cruelty. They will try to kill your soul

Just watching CNN and it is jaw dropping how mild the language is regarding USAID staff being recalled and the repercussions. Little mention of the millions of lives that will be severely impacted.

It’s getting awfully close to midnight.

So sorry to hear this but great you’re in remission. I’ve had a run in with cancer too. Under control and living with it. Annual surgery coming up 🤞🤞🤞🤞

Hello!!!! Been in and out of social media with so much horror around. Gearing up now for the federal election and getting back to writing. How are you? Xxx

Talk about being on the wrong side of history.

Why You Might Suddenly Be Following Trump on Instagram and Facebook Many Instagram and Facebook users say they are confused about why they are seeing posts from the president and vice president in their feeds. Here’s what to know.

Why you woke up following Trump and Vance on Instagram etc! I unfollowed both the potus and vp accounts last week but still awoke to find I was following them on instagram. And weirdly, following Melania.

Meta is truly cooked.

Zuckerberg has jumped the shark.

Just an all around horrible day.

I have this too! Isn’t it the best!

Australians understand. We’re hurting for you. 💔

We sure do. Trying to comfort family who have evacuated in the Hollywood Hills and it’s bringing back Black Summer. This is apocalyptic.

Perfect cartoon. 👏👏

I got caught one on one with Fletcher at a party and never have I struggled to make conversation more. He is so dull and devoid of substance and ideas.

The Libs still don’t get why independents continue to rise.

The people of Bradfield would do well to remove him.

Well said. Thankful for the very few journos like yourself. 🩵

What evidence do you have that they get dressed alone? 🤔😉

The party membership see it as some sort of conspiracy. But the extraordinary part is, as you say, that absolutely nothing has been done to counter it. It’s a combination of arrogance and intellectual laxity in the professional political apparatus. They still believe in the old playbook.
