Interesting the masculinity of both Carney 🇨🇦 PM and Albanese 🇦🇺 PM is a more calm, reserved and considered one an expression of positive masculinity

The other day Dutton put out a statement about how our society is based on Christian traditions and heritage. I (wrongly?) dismissed it as easter stuff. Christian Taliban is very much part of American politics, and it's worming its way in to Australian too. #AusPol #AusVotes johnmenadue.com/post...

At some point the Board and Management of Creative Australia are going to have to accept the inevitable and resign. When you've lost the confidence of your staff and the community you ostensibly serve, your positions are untenable. www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Where was Greenland when the West Burger King burned?

massively depressing that the big scandal is that the shithead guy from the atlantic got texted accidentally and not the part where they're raining more death on yemen

We don't need more remakes of old movies. We need more MUPPETS remakes of old movies.

Netflix - please stop minimising the end credits of movies to suggest something else. Let viewers enjoy the soundtrack and see the cast and crew that worked on the film. We'll exit it ourselves when ready to. #film #filmsky #movies #moviesky

Hey I’m trying to work do you mind?

Sometimes I see colleagues get frustrated at award outcomes, but I think a real Moment for me was when I realized awards (Hugo awards in particular) are not ABOUT me, or any individual artist. They are about the COMMUNITY. That is who they are FOR. For us, the artists, our reward is the WORK.
