@NimraShahzadin The dress looks beautiful. I envy your talent.

My daughter's getting married in three months and her future mother-in-law keeps making comments about my "homemade" dress. When my daughter asked me to crochet her wedding dress, I was terrified but honored. Her fiance's mother has been dropping hints about "real" wedding dresses from "actual" bridal shops, like what I'm making isn't legitimate somehow. She keeps asking if we have a "backup plan" in case my dress doesn't work out. I've been working on this for eight months. The pattern came from a master crocheter on the Tedooo app who's made dozens of bridal gowns. Every thread was chosen carefully, every stitch counted twice, every measurement checked and rechecked. This isn't some craft project - it's a work of art. The train alone took six weeks to complete. Those pineapple motifs at the bottom? Each one represents hours of concentration and love. The fitted bodice required me to learn techniques I'd never attempted before, but I was determined to make something worthy of her special day. Yesterday my daughter had her final fitting and started crying when she saw herself in the mirror. "Mom, it's the most beautiful dress I've ever seen." She's going to surprise everyone at that church, especially her future mother-in-law. I can't wait to see the look on everyone's faces when she walks down that aisle.

@GriftReport @jk_rowling Another deranged JK Rowling hater. Why can’t they see she (J K) Rowling) speaks the truth

And yet @jk_rowling bank balance keeps growing

@AustralianJA Why do these weak women target a statue of someone who fought for the betterment of women in society? It beggars belief that their ignorance enhances their stupidity.

7 women arrested after statue of Jewish woman vandalised - Melbourne By Blair Jackson Women aged from 34 to 71 have been arrested and charged after a statue of a women’s rights campaigner was vandalised in Melbourne. The statue of Jewish Australian woman Zelda D’Aprano was targeted earlier this month with black and red spray painted messages written around the statue. An apron with the words “difficult woman” was also put on the statue. Ms D’Aprano’s depiction is holding a placard with the words “No more male and female rates. One rate only”; the alleged vandals defaced the placard with black paint, images posted online show. Born in Carlton, Ms D’Aprano was a persistent activist from the 1950s to 1980s, and with five other women founded the Women’s Action Committee in 1970, which led to the creation of the Women’s Liberation Movement in Melbourne. Her statue outside the Victorian Trades Hall was unveiled in 2023. On March 6, police alleged a group of seven women armed with spray paint, and umbrellas to hide their faces, targeted the statue. Seven women have since been arrested; 34-year-old Jemima Demanuele faced the Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Friday and was bailed. The other six women arrested, aged from 34 to 71, were bailed to appear in court in October. They all face charges of criminal damage, behaving in a riotous manner in a public place, marking graffiti on a residence without consent, recklessly damaging part of a registered place without a permit and refusing to leave scheduled public place after a warning. Police say they are looking for an eighth suspect who is also a part of the “activist group”. A police spokesperson said the vandalism happened about 11am on March 6. Police will allege they changed their clothing and put the umbrellas up in an attempt to block CCTV cameras and avoid being identified,” the spokesperson said. “The women then allegedly sprayed red spray paint across the statue and surrounding tiles. “They were approached by staff members nearby before allegedly becoming aggressive and leaving the area,” the spokesperson said. As well as Ms Demanuele and another 34-year-old woman facing charges, two women aged 48, and women aged 50, 55 and 71 have also been charged. The statue commemorates Ms D’Aprano chaining herself to a courthouse in protest against gender inequality. She was inducted into the Victorian Honour Roll of Women in 2001, awarded an Officer of the order of Australia in 2004, and died aged 90 in 2018.

@RadharamnDas @OMGTheMess Oh my goodness! How much more evil can come from this ideology?

Just see the level of toxicity in this Indian Muslim family where the wife Yasmeen Khan ran a beauty parlour where she invited Hindu girls for free beauty parlor courses. And when these girls came she used to spike their drinks. When they used to became unconscious, she used to call her husband Mohammed Sharif Khan who used to r@pe them. The wife meanwhile used to guard the reception while his husband r@ped the Hindu girls & video recorded his act to blackmail Hindu girls to have s€x with more Muslims. When police asked the wife why she offered young Hindu girls to her husband for r@ping them, she said that they will get Jannat as she is helping r@ping kafir girls who deserved to be r@ped by Muslims. Hindus needs to be extra beware & should not allow their children's to be in contact with anyone of them. They are crooked evil people

@GrumpyOLSoldier @PatrickGormanMP One Nation have Labor running scared.

I am 70 years old, served my country for 25 years. I ran a family farm & have two children & 4 grandkids. I have voted Labor & LNP in my lifetime. I am seriously considering voting ON. Why? because of comments like yours that prove you treat us with contempt 😡@PatrickGormanMP

@LizaRosen0000 These people are sick.

This Muslim scholar rules that most Muslim fathers who rape their own daughters are innocent because the minor girls provoke their fathers to rape them by wearing tight clothes or staying alone in a room with their fathers when their mothers are absent.

@ALeighMP Head of albos dirt department.

One Nation want to trick you into voting for them by making you angry. But true patriots deal in facts, not fear. My response to the commentary on my latest video. #auspol

@ItsDecado I hope things change for the better for you soon.

I am 28 years old, and I have lived my entire life suffocating under the Islamic Republic. I am writing this from the streets of Tehran, nearly a month into a war, and let me tell you a truth that the outside world cannot seem to comprehend: My biggest fear right now is not the missiles. My paralyzing, everyday terror is walking out my front door and hitting an IRGC checkpoint. It is the sickening knot in my stomach when the people I love step outside, knowing they might get dragged away by these monsters. Nothing is, was, or ever will be worse than this regime. You cannot convince me otherwise. I am bleeding myself dry. I spend every ounce of my energy and money fighting this digital blackout, buying VPN after VPN just to force a connection through so I can be the voice of my people. And what do I see when I finally get online? Analysts sitting safely abroad telling us, *"You haven't tried all the paths yet!"* Are you out of your minds? The last "path" we took, over 40,000 of us didn't come home. On that path, a live bullet flew centimeters past my ear and right past the head of the most precious person in my life. I almost lost my best friend forever on that asphalt. What goddamn path is left to take? Why do you trample on the spilled blood of my compatriots? Why do you spend your time fighting Crown Prince @PahlaviReza instead of listening to a crushed, bleeding nation? Last night, I watched his speech. Do you know what I felt? Relief. The profound relief of hearing an honorable man echo the exact pain and demands of his people, with more precision than anyone else. And I felt pride. I felt absolute pride in the truth, structure, and beauty of his words. Do you know how heartbreaking it is that pride is a foreign, alien emotion for an Iranian today? He gave that back to us. We screamed his name with all our might. 40,000 of our fallen heroes signed his leadership with their own blood. Stop fighting our choice. Listen to us.

@alanbleaching Do these people know who they actually are?

One of the funniest things about this is that they gave a bunch of professional victims literal victim cards and they then spend all their time arguing over who got to play their victim card and when. Brilliant.

@EDeason9192 @HollyGrayle Need a cage and a high pressure hose.

@HollyGrayle Poster children for the necessity of eugenics/racial hygiene.

I always enjoy seeing close ups of these protestors. It's always as bad as you think it's going to be.

@HollyGrayle I know I shouldn’t judge books by their cover but where do they get these people from?

@FranMooMoo Is this woman a Labor stooge as she doesn’t really seem to have liberal interests at heart?

What a nasty childish reaction from Louise Staley who used to be Pesutto's Chief of Staff. She went on Insagram gloating over Moira Deeming's loss yesterday posting this image of her with the caption ""Happy Days" and the Lily Allen song *F - k you very much" playing. I hope Moira tells them all where to go!

@DrNeilStone Exactly. Do they realise Kings are not likely to kill us but ayotollahs …………well, if one transgresses against them …off with their heads. I wonder if they realise what would happen to them if they protested in Iran.

If your political view is "No Kings, but Yes Ayatollahs" you are one very confused individual

@rowandean Are those in power in the liberal party machine actually labour people who are saboteurs?

And... the final act came with a delicious twist. I certainly didn't see that one coming. Did you?

@MorEdge_Insight They don’t get out much.

Just watch how this batshit crazy old liberal tells Persians in Britain that she knows better, and that their persecution under the Islamic regime is nonsense because… well, Palestine of course 🤦🏼‍♂️ What makes people become so stupid and out of touch with reality like this lady?

@sappholives83 That is grotesque. No normal woman would dress like that. Any normal woman would rid herself of the facial hair too.

If a woman walked around dressed like this, she’d get arrested for public indecency, and rightly so. See? They DO know what a woman is.

@RositaDaz48 @SarinaRusso Just pick a job off a tree. Crikey. What planet is this woman living on?

There you go @SarinaRusso you’ve taken the crown for the stupidest comment of the day

@JohnCleese Tough. Dogs are a man’s best friend.

Another main problem is the poor quality of Labour advisors I would put this one in charge of a candy store

@rod_lampard Good old libs. Shooting themselves in both feet.

👇🏼💯

@SandyXiaotong That is not going to happen overnight. Does she think truckies have so much money they can just go out and buy an electric truck?

FUEL CRISIS: Greens Leader Senator Larissa Waters suggests that we should electrify our trucks to get out of our fuel crisis
