After trump I’m just building up my expectation that Labor are going to lose the next election in a complete own goal situation

It’s just not worth emotional energy to expect or hope for them to get a clue - even in their own self interest

If you need something to lift your heart today check out #GeorgiaProtests

The firework launcher, the brave women, clergy as human shields, firefighters refusing to cooperate to fill water cannons, 1000s on the streets - beautiful, brave, creative, defiant ❀️✊🏼

Watching very bizarre takes on TikTok over whether it’s ok to comment on people’s bodies ever but a lot of people are saying ah NO - she does not look ok. Either of the leads do

So not here for 2000s heroin chic/ozempic/depression era reloaded bodies normalised 😭

Many are also losing their tents and all their extremely needed possessions they’ve been carrying to survive, because of the rain and the sea tides. And it’s unbelievably expensive to replace any of these things let alone eat anything or get warm clothes where available.
Please be kind hearted.

This is astounding. In June, the FWC ruled that I was sacked. Yet ABC chair Kim Williams stood before a room full of journalists & repeatedly denied I was sacked without hesitation.

This isn’t just gaslightingβ€”it’s a brazen disregard for both the ruling & the truth by our public broadcaster 1/2

Oh wow - Samantha Maidens article on the lovely and brave Gemma Carey was really nasty ey?

Just unnecessarily bitchy imho

How about honouring her actual work and achievements - I know I was grateful for the education from someone with genuine vax injury πŸ’”

What is Free Libraries Network?
We are a collective of grassroots library workers and activists, who respond to the hunger of millions of un-seen, un-reached and unacknowledged readers. We are peer-support, research and action group. This is our demand, our hope and our vision.
