Oh my goodness! This is horrific!

What’s a sovereign midwife?

Today I was fitted for hearing aids. Can I just say thank you to my friends and family who’ve been telling me for years that I’m deaf and put up with me saying eh? What? Often. Now I can hear everything. EVERYTHING! It makes a difference. @drericlevi

YouTube video by National Press Club of Australia IN FULL: Dr Nick Bryant's Address to the National Press Club

I had the privilege today of delivering ANU’s annual “Australia and the World” lecture. I slightly tweaked it to “Australia and the Trumpian world.” I warned of the perils of US-style polarisation, a path I fear Australian politics is treading.

@nickbryantoz.bsky.social yes it should’ve been the bill clinton era

Love that word. I need more komorebi in my life!

You might be right!

Good reminder. Complainants in pending trials aren’t helped by social media discussion about alleged perpetrators. Whether you like that part of our law or not, it’s the law. For justice to be done, for all involved, people reflecting on guilt/innocence in a public forum is so irresponsible.

Surely not!

That’s one of the things that makes a chef and their restaurant/cafe great. People come back then.

Urgh! I've just noticed a content scraping account here.

By the way, thank you for devising a gf menu. Hope it’s appreciated.

And it’s a risk that us coeliacs take. Or not. Over 25 years of making those decisions, and I still get nervous but sensible discussions and understanding the ‘vibe’ helps. If I’m in doubt I’ll have green salad, no dressing. And wine……

So funny!

I imagine the challenge is immense and you have to draw the line somewhere. I am finding increasing numbers of chefs understand coeliac issues though which is providing better quality options.
I used to only be offered cheese salad so love the variety available now.

As a coeliac, I appreciate when a chef devises a gf menu. As a vegetarian coeliac I’m very happy to find gf/vege option on the menu. But I feel sorry for gf meat eaters cos they’re often only given the veg choice. Or steak. (I love dairy and eggs, so am always happy for a gf vege meal).

You need some beeswax wraps

We need @dontattempt.bsky.social on the job. What do you suggest?

Via Jacinta Allan MP, Premier of Victoria: There are multiple bushfire warnings in place across the state. This includes a 'Leave Immediately' for Dereel, Chetwynd, Connewirricoo, and Kadnook.

I’m at a family celebratory lunch. Two you goes are watching on their propped up iPhone…..,..

Excellent advice

Colin Sheridan: A letter to all my friends who tell me to feel happy Writing about the genocide taking place in Palestine seems the most obvious thing in the world to do. That other people do not think so confounds and depresses me
