@KosSamaras I’ve always remembered good advice I received: be kind to the people you see on the way up as you’ll probably see them again on the way down

@farrm51 Yup! 🎃

@SquigglyRick 😞😞😞😞😞💔Utterly devastating. It was the most cynical, callous exercise. My heart goes out to all those affected, especially those who lost loved ones. #nojustice

@markgkenny What huge gap is he trying to fill by doing something like this? And will it work? Imagine if he used those millions to build a school or social housing… #impoverishedspirit

@GingerGorman ‘Ruby, don’t take your love to town’. I didn’t actually love it as a kid but it was popular and definitely creepy/threatening. Also Tom Jones’ ‘Delilah’ - uggh! Nothing subtle about the violence in that song but it was inexplicably popular 😟

@profbensaul Makes me weep. #Gonski is just a faint memory

@shanebazzi @4corners I agree it is very important that your voice is heard, Shane, both for you - and all others who are bullied. But it is also brave. Huge props. Whatever the outcome, you’ll be ok because you are supported & you’ll be speaking your truth. 💪 🤗

[Penny Wright @PennyWrites]

@Sophiemcneill @4corners Heartbreaking. Brave souls who risk everything and we all benefit. ❤️💔

@sammyjcomedian @ABCTV @abcmelbourne @Tonaaayy_ Love it. I have often been on the verge of writing those letters, myself, but I’ve managed to restrain myself… so far 😆

[Penny Wright @PennyWrites]

@DavidParis Bit of a shame. I like the word cunt. I always say ‘Cunts are good’. I’d like to find a different word to express loathing and disdain

[Penny Wright @PennyWrites]

@ninafunnell That is very hard. I admire immensely the way, in the aftermath of your experience (pain, anger and empathy for others), you have been able to bring significant change. ❤️

@Ralph_McTell I love this song. Feeling for you in your loss, Ralph ❤️‍🩹
