If it's a real thing, why did it take a wakeful villager to notice? Do military sites used by the U.S. not have security? Just relying on a Midsomer Murders / Dad's Army vibe...

Thanks to the 6"6" anarchist who stood back to let me on the tram, then said loudly "isn't anyone going to get up?". I've never seen people look up from their phones & jump out of their seats so fast. I got a seat, plus one empty either side. They thought he was my personal minder. Wish he was! 😀

Watching #ICAC is a good time to remind everyone - if you need a legal document witnessed, most likely there will be a JP available at your local public library at regular times. 🙄

It is not politics. Talking about justice - what is right and wrong - is not politics. Stop calling it politics. It is a cop out to call it politics.
An excerpt from an article, which includes quotes from Ed Sheeran. It reads: He wrote that he tries to use his music to “bring people from all backgrounds and cultures together” and that while he has personal views about “this devastating conflict,” he chooses not to speak publicly because people who come to his shows “do not expect a political forum.” He added: “I am not complicit.”

huge respect to Rachel Scott who persists in her professionalism. Not the first attack on her by that person. Remember his sustained racism at NABJ. But wtf is wrong with her bystander colleagues? Gutless.

I’ve long had a soft spot for Freo. Stems from when the shitful AFL made Fitzroy play their last ever game over in WA (& did nothing to mark the sorrowful occasion they caused). Freo arranged for an opera singer to perform Auld Lang Syne as they left the field. Respect to them. #AFL

If an expensive brand of jewellery wants to show off their stuff, that’s why they have shops. I’d rather our public art galleries weren’t used as branded showrooms.
