@Sherlock_Alex We found at 5pm yesterday that it was scheduled to be removed at 8am this morning.

This is devastating. We only learned of the planned felling 3 days ago, and they’re already chopping it down. It’s going to be mulched. We’re a design school that teaches #sustainability and #circularity and we’ve been given no chance to repurpose it into something meaningful.

@limlouisa @RMIT Thanks muchly! Couldn’t decide between a #blackbooks or #utopiaABC reference. Went with the one that had more #wine.

Best sign of the protest. Huge crowd is here, speaker is describing @RMIT’s union-busting moves. We deserve safe workloads and secure jobs #unimelbstrikes #rmitstrikes

It’s day 4 of @NTEUUniMelb’s strike and we are matching to support @NTEU_RMIT who are going on strike today. One sign reads “academic casualisation = academic exploitation” #unimelbstrikes

Starting early

A beautiful article featuring many of the amazing humans I am fortunate to call friends. A special shout out to Thea and Shelley for sharing their wonderful mums. I was fortunate to meet and work with Lorraine and Ana for death, but while both were alive.

Four days after her mother died, Shelley Anson walked into a candlelit room at a funeral home. The experience, in December, was transformative for Anson’s grief. theage.com.au/national/victo…

@JessYoungTweets You too. X

@DressingTheDead thanks Pia, hope you're safe and well

Do any researchers have any good ideas other than zoom in place of face to face project meetings as a back up plan for increased covid levels? Feeling like I should add something to this effect to a grant application 😟 #AcademicTwitter

@Kat_Daley But did you tick ‘other’ or ‘no religion’? 😅😅😅

So I completed the trans exclusionary census and the only good thing that came of it is that my daughter is now officially atheist because the catholic parent didn't fill out the form.

@Kat_Daley @BuchananLiana @MorganCataldo @SGSC_RMIT @RMIT Amazing work Kat! I wondered if you have connected in with anyone from MPAN? (Missing Persons Advocacy Network)… we should chat over coffee if we are ever back on campus…

*Now Online* - Register for our panel discussion next week looking at young people who go missing from residential care. Stellar line up of speakers: @BuchananLiana @MorganCataldo Emilie Oraylia & Arry Valastro --> eventbrite.com.au/e/missing-chil… @SGSC_RMIT @RMIT

@JessYoungTweets If you’re worried about IP- consider adding a slide at the start/end about slide usage, or put a watermark on each slide with something like ‘for personal use only, not to be reproduced without permission’ 🤷🏻‍♀️

Do you share your slides with people after a presentation so they can share them? I can't work out why I'm reluctant to. What's the best way to manage this please (that doesn't involve me making a website to upload them to) #AcademicChatter

It’s not often that I write about my work, so this was a lot of fun. Thanks to the team at @Biodesigned for the opportunity. Now go forth and overcome your disgust of #deadthings. I’ve got a lizard to dispose of.

@Kat_Daley The news ‘highlights’ today destroyed me.

12 & 13 year old indigenous teens sleeping in a rubbish dumpster. One of them has died after a routine garbage collection saw him killed after being dumped in the truck. This is just too much. sbs.com.au/nitv/article/2…

@Kat_Daley We’re marching 💪

So many women wearing black in the CBD. Are they marching or are they just Melbournians?

I have been in academia for over a decade and yet ever year, the volume of work at this time of year is completely shocking.

This is incredible. Please, watch and share. 👊

1. It is impossible to consider what constitutes a good death while so many are forced to endure the constant reality of bad, violent deaths, and exist in a perpetual state of fear and mourning.

@JessYoungTweets 😱

Imagine navigating this as patients and families 😵

Today marks one year since voluntary assisted dying legislation came into effect in Victoria – #voluntaryassisteddying #assisteddying #VAD
