Literally everyone has this.

Does anyone else with ADHD have a “wear again” pile ?? Like the clothes you wore out for a bit, not long enough to be dirty, but not clean enough to put back, so they just live in a nearby pile for “later”…. or is it just me ??

Another heatwave predicted here for about ten days time.
Maybe worse than the current one.

We should start naming them the way we name storms, and name them after climate deniers and fossil fuel companies.

[Ramzy Alwakeel @journoramzy]

Sending reporters to do heatwave stories to camera at the beach is a such a lazy bit of consent manufacturing. 35C does not equal the beach. Do the report on a building site where people are on the verge of passing out. Do it from a hospital ward.

Governments including local councils tell us mitigating the effects of climate change is too complex & too expensive. Even things like planting more trees in our cities is dismissed as too hard. Good grief! This is a really easy one. And so effective at cooling urban areas.

@Michelle_Rent @noisywomanMP 😆🤭😔

@JosieMcskimming My mum is also very worried. She’s been a lifetime ABC watcher and always trusted it but it’s not trustworthy anymore.

@PatMcCaffrie Please don’t insult 5 year olds, most of who do a FAR better impression than this!

@MikeCarlton01 @RonniSalt And by the ABC…

[Vivienne Pearson @VivienneWriter]

@lyttle_deb9361 @abcnews @janeenorman I totally agree.

[Vivienne Pearson @VivienneWriter]

@RonniSalt @noisywomanMP One Nation is not rising, they’re being pushed … by the media. I can’t get over the fawning, gushing, non-fact checked coverage on the ABC, much of it by Jane Norman. Here’s my cartoon from the Byron Shire Echo last week and it’s even worse now.

@Teh_Jkr @Optus I’m paying triple and I hardly use any data. I complained until I got a bill reduction but next week it will be bye bye Optus for me, despite being a customer for decades👋

[Vivienne Pearson @VivienneWriter]

@PatMcCaffrie Except she did verbally punch a journalist…

[Vivienne Pearson @VivienneWriter]

@wife_geist I’m literally laughing out loud! Thank you.

[Vivienne Pearson @VivienneWriter]

@jenatlionra This is horrendous on every level. Thanks for sharing in such detail.

[Vivienne Pearson @VivienneWriter]

@PatMcGorry Here’s my take on it, published in thisthis week’s Byron Shire Echo…

[Vivienne Pearson @VivienneWriter]

@MattH093 This is my take - the media have created ‘the rise’ of One Nation.

[Vivienne Pearson @VivienneWriter]

@Brocklesnitch I love how, despite being the only country to call the sport soccer (I think that’s right), we’re confident enough in that to make it our team’s nickname!

[Vivienne Pearson @VivienneWriter]

@jacobaldridge It’s truely obscene

[Vivienne Pearson @VivienneWriter]

@lesstenny The whole ‘rise of One Nation’ is media-fuelled - for example ABC TV News had a breathlessly presented 5 minute PR-style segment last night. This is my cartoon about it, published this week in the Byron Shire Echo.

@Cassandrasl99 @BevJohnst Here’s my version, published this week in the Byron Shire Echo.
