@mrbenjaminlaw Love the byline. A truer history.

@NayukaGorrie Hmm socially sanctioned sexual abuse perpetrated by your father in law to be. And to be complicit in an act of intimate partner abuse in the name of “if you love me?”, what toxic manipulation

Anger is an energetic catalyst to challenge injustice #qanda

[Monique Toohey @MoniqueToohey]

What a conscience-provoking discussion. #qanda

@ranahuss @nichmelbourne I can believe your response. It was compassionate and you exude compassion. Way healthier for your body than anger or anxiety. The other person chose apathy. Bad for the mind & body.

@mrbenjaminlaw I’m in Malaysia. Waiter says “are you Australian?”, picked up by my broad accent. Tells me its not as hard to understand as the Scottish accent.

[Monique Toohey @MoniqueToohey]

@mrbenjaminlaw Cognitive bias. “Everyone else has an accent but me”

She doesn’t need acknowledgement from narcissists. They’re time wasters & sappers of energy. #auspol

#WorldSuicidePreventionDay

[Monique Toohey @MoniqueToohey]

On this day #WorldSuicidePreventionDay See a psychologist if you need to and if they don’t help you, see a different therapist. And if you’re taking medication for depression or anxiety and it doesn’t work for you, tell your GP & try a different one. #multipleoptions #hope #live

@Dr_XYZ @KFunksports @PoliticoVito @jeremycorbyn How stereotypes -lazy brain shortcuts fool the so called “intelligent”. Ever heard of a spotlight effect? It’s where let’s say the media shines a spotlight on a few women & your brain generalises the information to seem like a truth experienced by the majority #unconsciousbiases

[Monique Toohey @MoniqueToohey]

@jeremycorbyn Your PM should be leading by example. What a poor attempt at deflection. Anti-semitism doesn’t trump islamophobia. They are both racism. They are both unacceptable FULLSTOP.

@shane25873 Is that because you ran out of Vitaweets? Add vegemite and you could make multicoloured worms by squeezing the biscuits together and up came the butter / begemite through the holes.
