So this is good and all, but I want to talk about the 'what next?' bit
As someone currently homeless due to DV, it’s the what’s next bit that scares the fuck out of me.

Lounge creator and artist Kirsha Kaechle said the lounge was being ‘experienced’ by men exactly as intended – by excluding them.

Regarding AI tools and pictures of women: if you dress “modestly,” they’ll “undress” you. If you dress “revealing,” they’ll put more clothes on you. It has nothing to do with clothes or sex. It’s about taking free will away from women with technology.

Nothing says ‘celebrate the achievement of female athletes’ like inviting a male athlete who advocated against equal pay to talk about himself and the completely different sport he plays.

Welcome to the arse-about universe.
Here’s my Saturday column. theguardian.com/australia-ne…
Truly fascinating discovery that may have positive implications for understanding how the immune system interacts with the microbiome. – at Melbourne, Victoria
'We have discovered that an important group of immune cells in the large bowel are crucial to preventing bowel cancer.'
La Trobe researchers at @ONJCRI have made inroads into treating #BowelCancer, including a new roadmap to treating the disease. brnw.ch/21wDoI9
Caught this on tv the other night — it’s very good. Victoria has established an Indigenous Advisory Body (or Voice) and as one elected representative says, ‘no-ones got higher taxes or had land taken away’ because of it! – at Torquay - Jan Juc, Victoria
Here's a clip from ABC's Voice's of Australia doing an explainer on Victoria's Voice, and how it has operated since 2019.
It's a proven system, and there is example right here in Victoria.
You can watch the whole clip at:

When the wealthiest mining magnates in Australia align with a campaign, you’ve got to question what their agenda is. crikey.com.au/2023/02/16/voi…
Feeling this rant about inherited privilege and invisible wealth as I wander through the polite mansions & townhouses of Melbourne’s inner north. podcasts.apple.com/au/podcas…
TIL that MRI studies have found the ions travel through a migraine brain faster, and that #migraine brains have more shortcuts in neural pathways 🧠
Many people with migraine talk fast, learn fast and think fast (but then we're burdened with a short circuit every now and then).

Appealing to Australians to consider the impact of a "No" vote on the mental health of First Nations people & indeed the mental health & well being of the whole population. To say nothing about our collective sense of unity, cohesion & self respect, plus respect among all nations
🔥🔥🔥🔥 – at Melbourne, Victoria
Finally worked out what's been bugging me about the World Cup. Sat down to write and this came pouring out in about 45min.

An excellent summary — it’s not just about ‘the kiss’:
‘Change is coming. But it won’t arrive until respect and rights are seen as more than the victor’s rewards.’ – at Melbourne, Victoria
I wrote about Spain’s World Cup win, the kiss seen round the world, what it says and what the aftermath doesn’t. newyorker.com/sports/sportin…
This level of surveillance really is unacceptable. – at Melbourne, Victoria
“A spokesperson for Coles declined to say where its CCTV footage was stored or who it could be accessed by.”

To the opponents of high density housing in established inner city suburbs — look at your neighbourhoods: they’re boring because no-one young or creative to can afford to live there. This affects everything from cafes, community culture, childcare & more.
