Professional Storyteller. Nebby by nature.
I work magic w/words and stories in PR & journalism.
Long-time reporter, Dogmama & Java addict. Might be Batgirl.
So, in January, I was interviewed by @paisleyhaddad for her podcast, and the episode dropped today. Check it out and hear me talk about telling compelling stories and my transition (one year ago yesterday!) Thanks so much for having me Paisley!

Too on point not to share, “Aussie reply to Trump rant about NATO not being there for us.
Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
"NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth. Credit (borrowed from) Jim Scroggins - original author 📷 unknown”
If you took all the undocumented people that have illegally voted since 1988, and multiplied it by all of transgender athletes that played in any college sport in the year 2025, your total would still be 37,720 less than the amount of times Trump was mentioned in the Epstein files.

@BobHugginsDrunk@JohnnySlokes@McguirePetrov Robert Morris isnt the city's hockey team. Its a college hockey program 30 minutes outside of the city at a small private university.
Pittsburgh loves the Penguins way more than the Pirates.
@The_yellowbone Have you ever seen @meignelson on the mic? The girl kills it every time backstage or ring announcing. Local talent who deserves her time in the spotlight.
Everyone is getting this Jimmy Kimmel thing wrong.
A) It's not cancel culture when it comes from the government. It is censorship and state repression, just like in traditional authoritarian regimes.
B) Kimmel wasn't taken off the air for crotizing Kirk. He was taken off for criticizing Trump's lack of concern for Kirk. It was a criticism of the government. This has nothing to do with "cancel culture" and everything to do with freedom of speech.
Don't let them gaslight you into thinking this is a minor chapter in the culture wars. This is so much more.
