Just saw @gracejarvisohno at @micomfestival who was seriously, and hilariously, excellent. Directed by @lauradaviscomic, who's show in turn is directed by @TomCBallard. With that comedy lineage how can you not buy tickets?

@BrentHodgson They don't want to solve it. Have you ever tired calling the ATO? Gold standard in how well run a service phone line can be.

Funny how they'll invest money in taking your money but not so much in helping you.

Just like our ancestors started putting measures in place to reduce exposure to waterborne pathogens like cholera with sewage treatment and treating water to ensure it is safe to drink, we need to start doing the same for airborne pathogens. 21/

Einstein slept nearly 10 hours a day. He valued the significance of quality sleep for maintaining his well-being. His sleep routine, though, was out of the ordinary.
He regularly indulged in brief daytime naps, occasionally more than once a day. These quick naps, lasting just a few minutes, were thought by Einstein to revitalize his mental energy and creative thinking.

He felt that these short periods of rest gave him a renewed viewpoint to solve intricate scientific challenges.

Hey @CricketAus, been watching the @WBBL for the first time and loving it. But shouldn't the Men's @BBL be the MBBL by now? Bit weird in 2023 to be explaining to kids that if they see just BBL on its own they should assume it's men's because men are the default

Gee, phew. I was worried the UK was getting a touch less racist.

News Weakly podcast by @samishah did a great job covering this recently (and more, most sensible coverage of the horrific situation yet)

@LukeLPearson I'm so sick of headlines reading "we" as if no Indigenous person could possibly be reading that headline or, heaven forbid, actually be included in the discussion.

@corey_tutt I bought your book for my nephew this weekend. He loves it. Thank you for what you do.

We get programmed to believe that "personal responsibly" means assuming EVERYTHING is our fault & EVERYTHING is our responsibility-- when the truth is, the world is NEVER that simple. But then we're programmed to believe that acknowledging complexity is an "excuse."

It's a trap.

Until Australia as a country & nation embraces Blackfullas we won’t have a real national identity. Until then it’s little Britain here.

Let’s not talk about the campaign messaging. Let’s talk about racism in Australia.#Referendum2023 .

🚨EXCLUSIVE🚨The central "No" campaign is a sham: Two-thirds of its directors have listed fake home addresses, not one entity in its murky web has a telephone number – and the entire operation is “based” from a fake national headquarters...
