I don't know how to Twitter, I just set the TL to latest tweets and check in randomly when I have a minute. I realise this is probably not how to do it.

Sarah would have gotten more out of Usman on #abc730 if she had of treated him like a person rather than a politician. Regular people don't respond well to gotcha questions.

The AFL sees fans as cash cows, which we are, but stupidly makes us feel like that's all we are. We are the customers ffs, why try to drive us away?

I don't know a lot but I know a large proportion of the things Accenture work on go to shit in a very expensive way. Good luck Quntas, you're going to need it.

It started with mild interest and now I own a whizz bang camera and a half a dozen lenses. Can't remember deciding to buy any of it, it just kinda happened.
As you get older, it’s amazing how fast bird-watching creeps up on you.

I freely admit that I'm unaware of a single thing Chatfield has done (radio I think 🤷) or said but I see the vile abuse directed at her and I can't imagine what anyone could do to deserve such treatment. Did she kick everyone's dog when I wasn't looking? Why so emotional, chuds?

In Moira's world she decides which women are worthy and unworthy. Casting judgement on others, that ol' Christian chestnut that Jesus was very unambiguous about.

If Julia Gillard's misogyny speech was over the top, then surely Tony Abbott wouldn't go on to make himself the Minister for Women would he? Because that would kind of imply that she was right, that's if he would do it, because surely he wouldn't...I'm being handed a note

All those horror stories about her commute, suspicious if not complete fabrications.
A live broadcast dropout has exposed 3AW host Jacqui Felgate’s work-from-home arrangements, drawing accusations of hypocrisy after she previously criticised public servants for not returning to the office. > bit.ly/4sJMu5y

Big dog scared yelp from the backyard. Limping dog at the door. Thoroughly inspected, no apparent sore spots. Big dog magically stops limping. Suspect she fell asleep in the sun on the back step and fell off. Cuddles applied, big dog happy.

I miss Sean a lot.
RIP Sean Lock, you would have loved Russell Brand going to fucking prison.

David Jones was a great Australian man who survived almost 200 years, Albo just took him out the back and shot him with a woke cannon and you're making jokes?! Jokes on you wokes. I'll buy my overpriced business shirts made from Australian cotton in Bangladesh elsewhere so there.

I'm reminded of the time when Scomo asked DJT about Joe Hockey in front of cameras and Trump clearly had no idea who Joe was. #abc730

I'm experiencing a 'cost of feeding a 6 foot tall 16 year old crisis'. I'm sure I'm not uniquely effected, but this particular one can put food away like a machine. A pimpled, sweaty, stinky, emotional machine. Love him but I'm not sure I can afford to keep him.

Well that's a nice email, 12 month lease renewal with a 0% increase. They're in early too, it's from January 2027 - 2028. Make of that what you will.

Amazing to see wall to wall media saying the Iran war caused inflation in the USA, an economy where the government has been spending like mad, running trillion dollar deficits. In Australia inflation is caused by government spending alone according to the very same media. Wild.
