He thinks I have an eating disorder. And a fear of rectangles. That's not weird, is it?

Sarina Russo’s NAIDOC post is incredible

for starters, she repeatedly calls it “Nodac Week”

I thought watching tv with my kid would be cute, like we'd just watch The Wiggles or Bluey together as I chuckle knowingly at the adult jokes. Instead, all he wants to watch is technical YouTube videos about John Deere tractors.

Instead of a CEO sleep out, we should just put neoliberal economists, the RBA board and big business leaders on the average Australian wage for six months (no access to savings) and get them to show us how it all works - budgeting, finding housing etc, in this economy

Last year only 5 - that’s right 5 - cases of police misconduct were independently investigated. Police investigating police doesn’t work - Victoria needs #PoliceOmbudsmanNow Do you agree? Sign the petition: https://t.co/ZkPhbRRpGD #vicpol #auspol

[Africa Research Desk @MightiJamie]

The African Union needs to issue a statement about this!

How can there even be a debate about recognizing the indigenous people of Australia. It is their country. It is their continent.

They must be given reparations for 172 years of colonialism.

[Bec Shaw @Brocklesnitch]

Police pushing back protestors so that Nazis can walk by doing the salute - this is the transphobe movement. Only one side attracts nazis and its not the right one

[gammagum @gammagum]

Obviously yes this is how it should be

[gammagum @gammagum]

But one where schools and childcare are open please. Public holidays mean women bear the brunt of childcare when services close.

FUCK YOUR CRUMBS #IWD2023

[IWDA @iwda]

While we may have come a long way since the first #IWD, this year more than ever we are reminded of how far we still have left to go to truly secure our rights – and that for too many of us, progress hasn’t been equal.

Use your power this #IWD2023: https://t.co/FcinTCApHp

[IndigenousX @IndigenousX]

Too many people can only understand institutional racism as being the sole result of individual racists exercising institutional power rather than it residing in the very nature and core structure of institutions.

[IWDA @iwda]

More than purple cupcakes and empty platitudes at morning teas, #IWD marks an important time for feminists, women’s rights activists & grassroots movements across the world to join voices and advocate for a more just and gender equal world. (1/2)

what's a hugely popular show you actually think is/was terrible

[gammagum @gammagum]

She is years ahead of the discourse in Australia. She is rejecting her role within systems designed to oppress and white ppl cannot wrap their heads around it. She must be so tired. She is amazing.

the Coroner details Veronica Nelson's vomiting, how she requested help again & again, and how the medical & prison staff refused to help clean her or her things or the cell up or to provide her support. they just kept being dismissive of her #JusticeForVeronicaNelson

Coroner McGregor: I find that the treatment of Veronica by correction staff in the morning of 1 January 2020 amounted to cruel & inhumane treatment contrary to Section 10 of the Charter
