Is it just me, or do some people on Tinder look like they've been created by AI? Are these scams, or people using AI to look "better"? (Maybe both) I'd show pics, but you know what I mean...

This afternoon, I'm hosting ABC Canberra Drive from outside the Museum of Australian Democracy at Old Parliament House, where thousands have pre-polled for the election. I don't think it could get more "Canberra." I can't wait!

As the election campaign draws to a close, it's safe to say both major parties have been quiet on climate change. While Labor policies have made some progress to decarbonise, the Coalition threatens to scrap or weaken them.

Where do the major parties stand on climate? Turns out they’re worlds apart

I asked Headspace and the Coalition camp about this. Headspace said some jugs and little flags on the table in the presser were moved but that was it. Nothing else requested or moved. Also if you read Niki Savva’s column in the SMH it has a picture of Dutton next to a rainbow flag from that event.

Mum's been helping unpack boxes. I found a packet of stockings sitting in my wardrobe. Mum found them in my kitchen stuff but assumed they should be in the wardrobe. "Mum, I use these for infusing herbs and spices in things.... not for wearing..." 😅 Funny she put them in there without questions lol

I've deleted Facebook off my phone. That's enough. Talked to a few people on the radio this week who have completely deleted Facebook. They have no regrets and are loving life. Dare I say a few more might go that way soon...

Good reminder. Complainants in pending trials aren’t helped by social media discussion about alleged perpetrators. Whether you like that part of our law or not, it’s the law. For justice to be done, for all involved, people reflecting on guilt/innocence in a public forum is so irresponsible.
