I had a blast yesterday doing a rainbow storytime for IDAHOBIT at @NatCentAusChLit @UniCanberra

[NTEU ACT @NTEUACT]

Great rally at @UniCanberra today as part of the #UCstrike! Members want fair salaries, healthy workloads, better job security, and flexible work! ✊️ #BetterUnis @NTEUnion

[A. McCarthy @anni_mc]

Strike tea! Staff working conditions are student learning conditions, and both need to be better! @NTEUACT #UCstrike

[NTEU ACT @NTEUACT]

Union members at @UniCanberra have voted to proceed with a #UCstrike on Wednesday 26 October (next week) from 12pm. UC staff deserve to be supported, valued & respected.

Great to finish a meeting with a group photo highlighting the key issues! ✊#BetterUnis @NTEUnion

For the record I do actually barack for the Kangaroos but after two consecutive wooden spoons I feel justified in throwing my support behind another team on the big day.

Honouring my patrilineal passion for AFL footy (and the swans) and my matrilineal tradition of wacky crafting. My mum’s (who does not like football) set up on the left. My efforts on the right, Dad (not pictured) at the game. Carn the Bloods #AFLGF

@nontweetingkate Awesome ill email, and try to block out the 10th of November in my diary. Your project would have been awesome too, what a cruel process.

[A. McCarthy @anni_mc]

Trying to get my marking done but derailed by DECRA #DE23 results. I wonder how my students would feel if this if i gave my feedback ARC style!

[A. McCarthy @anni_mc]

@nontweetingkate I'd love to hear more about your child art findings sometime. Perhaps we could grab a coffee? When is your NLA presentation? I'd like to come if i can.

[A. McCarthy @anni_mc]

@nontweetingkate I'm sorry Kate.

@ANewNTEU @NTEUnion What if you like 'potentially' hadn't updated your address when you were meant to and now the ballot is 'potentially' somewhere else. I presume that means you probably can't ask them to send you a new ballot to your new address? #AskingForAVeryAshamedFriend

@_As_Ruby Well nearly 9 days in bed struggling with covid did wonders for my reading! Are you enjoying Transit of Venus?

[A. McCarthy @anni_mc]

After a lovely day in the Australian Red Cross Archives in North Melbourne I’m utterly convinced all archives should provide take-home teddies!

[A. McCarthy @anni_mc]

@_As_Ruby @fbongiornoanu Inspired by you I started reading it today too! Here is the performance of the creative fellow that was working on her that i mentioned: https://t.co/UIXhIhXcvn

[A. McCarthy @anni_mc]

I second all of these sentiments whole heartedly!

[A. McCarthy @anni_mc]

@catherinegay_ @AustHistAssoc Wow! I wish I had stayed for that now too! They needed to tip you off that the dinner may have contained more sweets than just the dessert 😉😉
