3. Understand that if you haven't left finance available, your wishes are irrelevant.

[Gabziela @Gabziela]

My mother recently passed & thru grief I've had to navigate my parents' financial circumstances & being left to organise all the things that happens after death on my own despite 3 siblings and a still living albeit unwell father. There are 2 life lessons I'm taking from this:

[Gabziela @Gabziela]

1. Ensure financing for after life logistics are taken care of so your child doesn't have to take out a personal loan just so your body can be either cremated or buried.
2. Leave nothing to mystery. Be open to discussion on after life logistics with your family.

@PRGuy17 I dont get it. At the last major rally for stopping Violence Against Women in Canberra the then PM, Scott Morrison, was criticised for not attending and speaking. We now have a PM who is prepared to walk and talk with women and he is being criticised too.

[Kon Karapanagiotidis @Kon__K]

There are so many truly revolting men on this hell site

This weekend when women bravely rally across Australia you just spew hatred for women & anyone who stands with them

You bring shame to all men but you do not speak for all men

Change is coming whether you like it or not

It should be a huge media story today that the family of a woman allegedly killed in Cobram on Tuesday were so scared of what the media might do to her in print they first released information to a relatively small anonymous activist group - MFW - instead of to that same media.

But of course it isn't, because these press orgs are as silent as the grave on this issue. It’s far too embarrassing and shameful for them to acknowledge their trashed reputations and shortcomings, of course (which is, to be honest, just another form of lying).

Dozens of journos have messaged us this morning wanting the information we posted earlier verified to them and while most have been polite and understanding, some are upset and annoyed they haven't been treated today like the news gods they believe themselves to be.

One even asked us "Who the hell do you witches think you are?"

Well, maybe if they deserved respect and consideration when reporting on women's issues and deaths, they might just get some of it back.

Emma Bates's family trusted us because Rupert Murdoch and Kerry Stokes have proven they'll harm women (particularly women victims) at every opportunity for link clicks and profit. But also because nearly all other mainstream media outlets (including The Age just YESTERDAY) still repeatedly valorise perpetrators, blame alternative issues for the violence, and demean and minimise victims.

So this family quite rightly didn't trust how the death of their loved one would be reported. Who is damn well surprised?

Of course, now we've posted information about Emma and explained why we were trusted with it, that same media will go after us even more than they have in recent years. Any type of whistleblower in this country (and those exposing media behaviour in particular) can count on being lied about, destroyed and attacked in preference to those harming others accepting and changing their own loathsome behaviour.

When individuals call out this media misogyny, they end up being abused in big bold letters on the front pages of Rupert’s rags. This hasn’t happened to us (yet) only because they don’t want to give more attention to our boycott campaigns, but this means they DO find other ways to harm us.

In coming days we'll have more to say about this topic, so please ensure you're getting our tweets if you want to know the full story.

But today and for now, we mourn Emma Bates.

We're so sorry for her family, and we thank them for trusting us with a small part of her life and story.

Rest in Power, Emma.

I agree with most of you folks. Albanese is not perfect, but you have to agree he's much, much better than Abbott, Turnbull, and Morrison combined. #Auspol

Paul Keating:
"Australia was perhaps the most successful multicultural society in the world. John Howard put the torch to that.
Now we live perpetually with the spectre of terrorism & racial strife, visited upon us by his prejudices and lack of judgment."

@Mon4Kooyong I am in the same boat as that woman's child. I was sold the university lie and now will never get it paid off. I'm almost 41 and will never own my own home.

[James Fell @BodyForWife]

I like pineapple on pizza. You don’t. That’s a difference of opinion. I think Nirvana sucks. They’re your favorite band. Also a difference of opinion.

I don’t end friendships over differences of opinion. I end them over differences of morality.

Rachel Maddow just flawlessly rattled off every major Biden accomplishment in 60 seconds.

That clip is a f’cking masterclass in messaging and every Dem should watch it, memorize it and repeat it to anyone “on the fence” who is willing to listen. 🔥

“I want to finish the Gonski model (to) close the education gap” for children in public schools, says Education Minister Jason Clare. Seeking more transparency about where public funding goes, “I want taxpayers’ money to glow in the dark.”

[cmdibley @cmdibley]

The idea that politicians, particularly a PM, cannot go to a family wedding or a concert or eat a nice meal or wear stylish clothes, is pretty puerile. I wish our media could focus on the important issues facing this country.

Albanese didn’t lie about Stage 3 tax cuts, he kept them as promised, but in a modified form due to changed economic conditions. 👍

Dutton has decided to go with the broken promises angle because he has no argument.

[Jim Chalmers MP @JEChalmers]

Whether you’re a nurse, truckie or a teacher, under our plan, you’ll get more help with the cost of living. My thoughts on Labor’s bigger tax cuts for more Australians in today’s @couriermail @dailytelegraph and @theheraldsun #auspol #ausecon

[PRGuy @PRGuy17]

If you're earning $150k or less, the Liberal Party says you need to be paying more tax — they're fighting Albo's tax cuts for middle Australia, and instead want a windfall for MPs, CEOs and consultants on over $200k. The Liberals want to tax the hardest workers more.

[David Opie @DavidOpie]

Both critically and financially, Aquaman 2 is performing noticeably worse than The Marvels. They’re both sequels to billion dollar blockbusters yet I don’t see any hit pieces from the trades when it comes to the movie starring a man…The math ain’t mathing 🤔

[MFWitches @MFWitches]

How the fuck do we live in a place where journos went on for DAYS explaining every fucking detail of @JuliaGillard losing a shoe & @AlboMP forgetting the cash rate for a nano-second but now reckon people’s lack of proper understanding of the #Voice isn’t their fucking fault?
