I’m not against helping and of course I care, but I don’t know if I want to be tagged in GoFundMes on here esp when I don’t who the people are. This became a problem on Bluesky.

In 2026, this has turned out to be more applicable than ever. Not sure exactly who said it, but from what I can find online it was the UK’s TUC General Secretary Paul Nowak in 2023.

Truly worrying that nearly 60% of Australians would be open to voting for One Nation at the next federal election, including nearly half of those currently backing Labor.

Can’t wait to get this. Saw her speak at Footscray Library last week. Also Jacinta was the one who discovered 94-year-old stand up Liz Hecklin!

When I moved to Sydney about 30 years ago I learnt a phrase from a friend there: “you can never have enough friends”. I still use it and think of it all the time. Sadly it’s a phrase that doesn’t seem to apply to those in Melbourne. 🤣

Queen Mary is one of us not just because she’s from Tassie, but she’s also a former real estate agent too. Represents Australia’s interests well.

Go to see Elouise Eftos aka “Australian’s first attractive comedian” if you can. Saw her at Edinburgh last year. Also, I keep wondering if she’s added a line about comedian Katherine Ryan having a recent facelift into her set.

Just did first stand up in Melbourne, don’t feel like it went brilliantly although there were more comedians than audience members.

Have been working here today, such a fab spot. Plenty of space. And you don’t have to get there at the crack of the dawn to get a desk like the British Library too. It’s now got its own subway as well! #Melbourne #libraries #statelibraryvic #Australia #work

Interesting to go to this free improv class now. Most of the other people there said they were there because they worked remotely and were worried about their social skills. It makes me realise that #wfh has come at a cost even with the benefits. Probably hybrid is best.
