My dad’s property burned yesterday (luckily he/house/cattle are ok) and I live in the bush near West Gippsland and it’s getting very difficult to find affordable home insurance (many just won’t insure us at all). It hurts my head that nothing meaningful is being done about the climate.

Oh yeah they kinda scooped us 😅 But I think that two independent groups - one mostly made up of early-career researchers from the ND community and another which is high-level academics - had some similar ideas about how to approach the language issue is validation that we're on the right track

The language we use to talk about ADHD matters - it has real consequences for people with ADHD/ADHDers. This paper has been a long time in the making, so very glad to see it out in the world and very grateful for having such an amazing team work on it ❤️

Scientists have linked fossil fuel companies to specific climate harms for the first time, with five Australian oil, gas and coal companies potentially responsible for $900bn in loss and damage from extreme heat alone. Latest from me in The Guardian this morning.

If you want *genuine* positive progress for the environment & climate (why wouldn't you?), then you can vote for that, by voting Greens/Teals/sensible Independents. Preferential voting means *no vote is wasted*. The major parties are both ecocidal, to varying degrees www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...

Do you prefer ‘a person with ADHD’ or ‘an ADHDer’? If you have ADHD (and you are 18+ years), we would like to know what you think as part of our research on disability language preferences. To have your say, you can complete a 10 – 15 minute survey deakin.au/4iqPuOi #ADHD #ADHDAwareness
Advertisement for a research opportunity: Language preference in disbaility. Person with ADHD or ADHDer. Do you have ADHD? We are interested in your language preferences! Would you rather be referred to as a person with ADHD or an ADHDer? If you have ADHD and are 18 years or older, you can complete our survey about disability language preferences (it takes about 10 - 15 minutes). Have your say! Scan the code or click this link. This study has received Deakin University ethics approval (reference number 2025/HE000002)

Want to avoid the utter carnage unfolding under a Trump-Musk government being replicated in Australia? Don’t elect Temu Trump (aka Peter Dutton). That doesn’t mean you need to put Labor first though! Use *preferential voting* to best reflect your values and politics.

We're shocked by Trump and Musk's antics because we judge them against the idea that governments should serve the people. But they have no such intention. Government for them is simply about seizing power and wealth. Let's stop being shocked, and build a global, democratic counter-movement.

Researcher Q&A: A Conversation About Research on Taiwan Indigenous Peoples and Making a Hard-to-Reach Population Visible
Taiwan Indigenous Peoples (TIPs) are a branch of Polynesian-Malaysian (or Austronesian) ethnic groups in a genetic and linguistic context. There was a rich body of ethnographic, official, and academic records on TIPs before 1940. However, the period of 1940–2000 was a data “Dark Ages” for TIPs due to political reasons. This lack of data marginalized them, making it seem like they were disappearing. In 2000, Taiwan resumed its general population census, and I participated and delved into the indigenous data.
