Topsy turvy when some of the most accurate & poignant commentary comes from a spoof website. However, I personally value The Betoota Advocate mob for shining a light on the profound hypocrisies here. @betootaadvocate.bsky.social

Hello Australian medical twitter - does anyone know if there is a vector vaccine/booster available for Covid at the moment? It seems like no one is stocking AstraZeneca anymore. I’m allergic to mRNA vaccines. Antivaxers please scroll past.

I beg to differ. The internet and free speech absolutism is an unmitigated disaster. It’s a one way ticket to authoritarian hell.

This take by @wsj.com is bananas. Peoples whole lives and communities are being destroyed by authoritarian raids…and these journos are worried about sales of Coke? Have some decorum/empathy in how you report.

French dock workers block shipment of military material for Israel: union

Dozens of journalists were assaulted by law enforcement in Los Angeles this weekend. The press were just doing their job -- a sacred one explicitly protected by law. Press rights orgs will follow up collectively tomorrow. Tonight, I emailed evidence to local/state/federal officials. My sign off:

“She can’t be unmedicated” Ruth’s daughter with ADHD hasn’t had her usual meds since February. I spoke to families navigating Australia’s ADHD drug shortage & the toll it’s taking. 📖 Read my piece www.kidspot.com.au/parenting/sh... #ADHD #medicationshortage

Breaking News: Israeli troops opened fire near a Gaza aid site, the military said. Gazan officials said at least 27 people were killed.

Can a grown woman go to bed at 730 pm? Let’s get real. I’m not asking for a friend 🤣 🛏️

Still buzzing after the "Words on the Waves" writers' festival on the NSW central coast over the weekend. What a riot. @janecaro.bsky.social @julesbaird.bsky.social @sleemol.bsky.social

So much to look forward to! 🤣🤯

Super happy that Jon has become inspired by the inner demons of perimenopausal women and decided to create a new line of prints about them… I made that up. But how good is this print?! 😍

Found an old piece of lino under a great deal of mess and art materials. Decided to finish the edition. First one off the press.

BREAKING: An Israeli airstrike on a school-turned-shelter has killed at least 25 Palestinians, mostly women and children, Gaza's Health Ministry said. The school was hit three times while people slept, setting their belongings ablaze, they added.

An excellent article from my friend and colleague Ginger Gorman about the ethical considerations of using ChatGPT as an 'AI wife'. My thoughts in the article below.

If you’re calling ChatGPT your “AI wife”, congrats—you’ve just outsourced centuries of women's unpaid emotional & mental labour. 🧠 But at what ethical cost? 👉 Read my latest: womensagenda.com.au/latest/the-e... With @julesbaird.bsky.social @traceyspicer.bsky.social @womensagenda.bsky.social

Tell me about a time someone called you a name or descriptor that was meant to be an insult…but you kind of loved 🥰 it. I’ll go first: Eccentric. I was only 16 at the time, but I’ve stuck with it 🤣 (Suits me even more now than it did back then!)

An Israeli airstrike just killed nine of this Gaza doctor’s 10 children. Dr Alaa al-Najjar was on duty at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis when she received her children’s bodies. What’s happening in Gaza is #genocide. The world needs to step in and stop it. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Loving these posts which show up the kind of ludicrous appearance commentary women get on the daily 🙌

I swear to god some books should just be 700 word opinion pieces.
