This graphic was the work of 70+ kids and young people who have been subjected to coercive control. It's one of the few graphic resources I've seen that captures children's experiences (thanks to @Barnardos_IRL). You can find more here: https://t.co/IxGUtGSom3

I wrote something deeply personal ⁦@BroadAgenda5050⁩. Please read.

Body positivity doesn’t promote fatness, it’s not toxic positivity…it recognises the complex contributions to being overweight and is a counter-to and a calling-out of fat stigma. https://t.co/2HZmWGHAeO

Protestors out the front of UniSuper this morning, asking the big industry fund to get out of fossil fuel investments. They have more than $100m invested in oil and gas firm Santos. Not good enough @UniSuperNews

This is exactly what the problem is Australia! Over 70 critically endangered possums will be sacrificed for a $1b road infrastructure project in SW Western Australia...endangered black cockatoos & ecologically significant banksia woodlands would also go.🤬 https://t.co/RzUO7qvmQb

Five women have been killed this week. The most recent one in my hometown, Newcastle.

Where is the political will? Where is the national outrage outside of the sector?

There are solutions to this epidemic.

These women deserved better.

If you are thinking about how to help flood affected people in our beautiful city of #BNE in the next week...
As someone who lost pretty much everthing in 2011 and who then did a ethnographic study on community responses in the following year ... I have a few thoughts/1

The worst symptom of burnout is the guilt for feeling like you haven't done enough to deserve to be burned out.

This man was forced to give his dog to Humane Society due to lengthy hospital stay. This nurse went to the shelter and adopted his dog. She brings him to visit daily & will return him as soon as the man is released! Be the light in this world, even through the dark times ❤️
