Doing your bit for the environment is important – so is leading a sustainable lifestyle that's aligned with our values.

But this shouldn't mean that we put our own health at risk!

Starcrawler played some great shows in Australia in early 2020.

(We were there!)

Frontwoman Arrow De Wilde has spoken publicly about the assault she experienced at one of the band’s Melbourne shows.

It’s uncomfortable but important reading.

ALERT | The Victorian Government has issued a health alert about a recent upsurge in congenital syphilis cases.

Reported cases have increased from 634 cases in 2014 to 1670 cases in 2019.

Please read the link for more information – and be safe!

A lot is being said about Victorians who aren't isolating.

Yes, some people are behaving irresponsibly.

But so many people, including many young people, simply don't have the luxury of not coming in for a shift.

If they don't, they get fired – or "casual" fired (no shifts).

[YEAH @YEAH_au]

As we saw with the killing of a 22-year-old woman by her ex in Sydney two weeks ago, too many Australians still aren’t getting the message when it comes to family violence.

That’s why we’ve made a short educational video about respectful relationships.

Check it out and share.

[YEAH @YEAH_au]

Everyone has a bad day from time to time.

Most of us don't use that as an excuse to slam a 17-year-old into the ground, face-first.

Do better, @nswpolice.

Australia's eSafety Commissioner has reported a 200% increase in image-based sexual abuse claims as a result of #coronavirus restrictions.

May 17 is International AIDS Candlelight Memorial Day. @gnpplus

Almost 40 million people live with HIV today.

Many live with stigma and discrimination.

Countless others have passed away.

Sunday is a time to think about everyone affected by HIV.
