@AventuraObscura Oh I love this!

@arielbogle Hope you're investigating how much money PHON could potentially make from fielding ghost candidates. Don't parties get tax payer funded payments for every vote they get over a certain threshold?

@Emsyanna This. It's the sizzler buzzers that send me over the edge.

[sparqua @sparqua]

@Emsyanna Yeah Particularly after yesterday’s spelling bee missive.

@bellapittaway Had a lump at injection sites and redness too

[sparqua @sparqua]

@bellapittaway Had weird 48hrs: injection at 9am, 4pm weary, 10pm bones sore, 2am chills and felt like a truck hit me, 9am out of it with headache, 2pm improving, 7pm almost OK, 9am normal. Arm sore 3 days. Worse than Pfizer (bad headache) but manageable with ibuprofen & miso soup 😊

@KyraWomen Congratulations!!! Well deserved.

For all the talk of the ‘the Australian way’, it’s actually US-based consultants who are providing the modelling for net-zero by 2050, at considerable cost and at the expense of homegrown expertise.

CSIRO staff slam outsourced net-zero modelling - https://t.co/osxCccpxKP

We tend to think of colonialism as a relic of history but colonialism lives on, everyday. It is just a choice not to report it or talk about it. It's still a taboo. Thanks ⁦⁦@washingtonpost⁩ for writing this story. https://t.co/PHX7bJsYkS

THE MEGHAN MARKLE HELPLINE: Got a ridiculous opinion about her? We’ll endure it so others don’t have to.

[Chris Anderson @TEDchris]

Occasionally at TED we post "best of the web" moments that communicate an idea with immense power. Amanda Gorman's spoken word performance today is astonishing. Truly worth sharing far and wide. https://t.co/bjlOmPWhJc

There have been very few things I’ve wanted to retweet in such a long time but this..... this sums up 2020 in a way only Australians can

[The Shovel @TheShovel]

We asked Margaret & David – Australia’s most-loved reviewers – to review '2020'. As usual they disagreed. #WarOn2020

[The Project @theprojecttv]

As firefighters and their families enter another long week of battling catastrophic bushfires, exhaustion and frustration is starting to boil over.

This week, one woman put her thoughts in a blog post that’s since gone viral - her message aimed squarely at our Prime Minister.

My esteem for @davidthodey has increased enormously after hearing he was a social anthropologist once! #D61live
