It’s hard to think of a bigger backdown from the Andrews government since it won office in 2014 than this decision to axe its own planned new property tax. #springst

I endorsed the MEAA Freelance Charter of Rights, because freelance media workers deserve fair pay, superannuation and support from publishers and those that commission them. Have a read and endorse the charter too.

[MEAA @withMEAA]

Freelance journalists, photographers, writers, editors, producers, cartoonists and illustrators are standing together to set a floor for pay and conditions to protect quality journalism.
Add your name to the Charter:

"...an atlas of human suffering and damning indictment of failed climate leadership." 😢

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I've seen many reports, but nothing like the new @IPCC_CH climate report, an atlas of human suffering & damning indictment of failed climate leadership.

I know people everywhere are anxious & angry. I am, too.

It's time to turn rage into #ClimateAction. https://t.co/ouBcbujyge

"Safe spaces don’t exist on their own, they need to be nurtured and fundamentally responsive to a community’s needs. It requires the encouragement to challenge our own views, and the unequivocal assurance that we belong." - @issyhay (they/them)

[Signal @signalapp]

We’re seeing these rumors appear in messages forwarded on several different apps. These rumors are often attributed to official government sources and read “attacks on Signal platform.” This is false and Signal is not under attack.

[Signal @signalapp]

We've had an uptick in usage in Eastern Europe & rumors are circulating that Signal is hacked & compromised. This is false. Signal is not hacked. We believe these rumors are part of a coordinated misinformation campaign meant to encourage people to use less secure alternatives.

Our hearts are with Ukraine. Over the last week, @darekmazzone has celebrated the music of Ukraine in honor of their resilience. Listen to last week's @kexpwopop (https://t.co/12B0vIbwNk) and Darek's takeover on Sunday Soul (https://t.co/zXzpVXPzrv).

She predicted ‘swamped by Asians’ but instead got ‘swarmed by wasps’…

This family have waited over 5 years for answers and justice. They’ve now waited more than 2 months. Let’s all remind @VickieChapmanMP to keep the SA governments promise.

A man who looks like Steve Martin, in a garden, tending to this dachshund is exactly what I need this morning. Apparently, this is from a series called, "Dads with dogs they didn't want."❤

Melbourne friends,
