Money can't buy class

I was at the Edge in Fed Square in Naarm launching Creative Climate with the team early on Thursday. I still haven't had much time to decompress but I am as excited as I am scared by the amount of work coming our way. Visit www.creativeclimate.org.au for more and to get involved

Because taking photos of other people in public bathrooms is an incredibly normal thing to do.

“Climate crisis is a colonial problem… When faced with a crisis I ask not how I can survive, but how many people can I save?” @clairegcoleman.bsky.social speaking at this morning’s Creative Climate launch. What a magnificent initiative. www.creativeclimate.org.au

oppressing women to own the libs

Approximately 1% of people are trans. Therefore I posit there are more cis women in the world who could be mistaken for trans than there are trans woman. If that is true what JK has done is ask people to photograph cis women in toilets.

Rowling is so incredibly transphobic she is now an absolute danger to all women. "JK Rowling says to photograph women in toilets just in case they’re transgender" www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/06/jk-r...

MEDIA RELEASE: Jewish Council condemns FM Wong’s endorsement of US military strike on Iranian nuclear targets, which threatens to escalate a dangerous regional conflict and lead to more death and suffering

So, it looks like there are still some tickets left for my "Getting Published" masterclass at Q Lit fest at 3pm today in Carlton. This is your chance to learn from me how to increase your chance of getting published! events.humanitix.com/q-lit-festiv...

Informative analysis of the court case in which Disney and Universal are suing Midjourney. If Disney and Universal win this case it will be a death knell for generative AI ... good riddance. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpcW...

People who are fed easy (but not great) solutions to their problems tend to get lazy. People who get intellectually lazy (like chatgpt users) are not exercising their brains. ChatGPT users get stupider. In the end it's those of us who won't use AI who will get the shit done.

Bitch thinks transphobia is welcome here.

Time to drop our alliance with the fascist USA

The permit to log this critically important parcel of forest in the Yarra Ranges was issued when I was 3 years old. A logging company intends to use the permit … it’s pretty close to where I live btw

Holy shit that article is dark. I think it's time to take a stand against Generative AI. It's nothing but a toxic and parasitic technology. It does no good for the world and significant harm.

USA sliding into Fascism part 4925

Generative AI is a technology without a killer use case. It will never be profitable.

Trans people told you so. Gays were always next. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/10/u...

We are used to seeing scenes like this in failed states and dictatorships ...

This is how fascism takes hold. An elderly man is attacked by a dude in a mask and military clothing and cars just drive past.

its not standing on the ledge y'all're already on the south bank of the rubicon it has BEEN fascism and every fascist thing that happens one after the other is always considered nearing fascism but never reaching it as though fascism is a decreasing logarithmic function

Are these the allies we want @albomp.bsky.social?

If you watch the video you can see it was an intentional targeting of a reporter ... it was intended to hurt and it was intended as a threat. USA is standing on the ledge about to fall into fascism

The "65,000 years, a short history of Australian art" exhibition at Uni Melb's Potter Museum is groundbreaking and important. You should see it if you get the chance. My review here: www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/culture/visu...

Breaking news: I just signed something More to come eventually.

So much this

I’m absolutely serious about this. Today I have registered the domain name womenforhumanrights.co.uk Maybe this won’t be what sticks, but it’s a start. Explainer about how I got to this choice in various conversations in the original 🧵 All humans welcome.

If your business plan requires you to commit crimes to make a profit you aren’t a business you are a crime gang
