If you get a chance to see it, do! Jodie Comer rocketed to the top of my incredible young actors list after seeing this, and the play is a must watch

Happy Prima Facie day🎉

We can't wait to bring this incredible show back to cinemas TONIGHT with @estreetprods.

Hello Twitter! Just popping back to remind the handful of people that see my posts that I'm on BS under the same handle. It ain't perfect but the basic platform is so much nicer and the community is evolving. Come make it better, I miss you guys 🥹

@MChandlerMather Why are Australian government social interventions always about outlawing something? I never lived anywhere else with such a taste for punishment based social incentives

@DrDavidVernon I read this passage a few months ago. One of the highlights of the entire work

@DrDavidVernon @HaselsteinerA I enjoyed Levit's 2016 recording vary much

@chelmarr This looks awesome. I know you're not much of an extrovert (God forbid!) but if you ever feel like some company for any weird artsy stuff that no one wants to go to, just send me a polite noncomital hedging DM and I'd love to come along

@citynightcap From a more complex systems view do you think the debate plays a role in shifting public opinion towards a tipping point?

@citynightcap Hello old friend! I miss seeing your posts when I'm not here 👋

[David Allen @davidallenkr]

@benjaminaengel @dkupr Would you mind terribly if I DMed you sometime next year about university work life here? I have the education (MA in linguistics and MSc in stats). So far, I've resisted making the move, but hagwons just aren't sustainable anymore. I promise to be polite and not too demanding!

He looks like all of Australia's last five Prime Ministers morphed into one

@Asher_Wolf Also don't forget Kanopy from your library. Heaps of newish movies for free while still supporting artists

[David Allen @davidallenkr]

@Asher_Wolf It's probably not what you're after, but I spend my money on small streaming services like National Theatre, MET Opera, Digital Theatre, etc. and then I pirate from the big bastards. A Plex package from somewhere like https://t.co/ltri5vSMc0 makes it easy and remote

a biological woman is getting more hate than an athlete who r*ped a 12 year old, tells you everything 👍

So what battery of tests do I need to take to find out if I'm a man?

A cafe here in Seoul is playing @WASHINGTONx with @The_Bamboos. Mad to think that 20 years ago I was listening to Megan singing in small jazz clubs around Brisbane

@LaymansLinguist American linguists? Dunking on Chomsky was fine in the Australian/European environment I was trained in
