How’d I do

Hey @Qantas you have a walking lawsuit in the form of an unhinged, aggressive baggage handler lady spreading misinformation regarding the Trans-Tasman travel arrangement at one of your desks. Desperately needs retraining or let go. She demanded she 'must sight my physical permanent residency visa for New Zealand and a utility bill'. Despite knowing I had an Australian passport. Interestingly though, this happened yesterday at a rural Australian DOMESTIC airport. And she is, in fact, not a New Zealand border security officer but a baggage handler with emotional baggage of illogical power. And as I'm sure you know, no such thing as a physical visa permit for Australians exists for NZ. All whilst the actual check in lady did nothing to correct her whilst she (incorrectly) did her job for her. I'd love to pass on more information in DM's as long as you're not an AI bot. - Regards from New Zealand

Honestly could have been an email @AlboMP

It is blindingly clear the hate speech laws only apply to antisemitism. Imagine if Pauline Hanson said there are no good Jews in Australia. Where are the police why have they not acted? This double standard is intolerable.

BREAKING: Swiss commentator kept on reminding viewers of the war crimes the pilot has openly supported, while the Israeli bobsleigh team was racing on the Olympics.

Shared with us from Sydney happening now. He had his hands up.

Herzog is not welcome in Australia. Good people don't sign bombs. Bombs that kill families living as refugees in tents.

I just watched a bunch of war criminals in Sydney being treated like "respected" diplomats....it made me fucking sick as an Australian.

Our government crossed a line by inviting a war criminal - they can’t uncross it.

GENOCIDAL STATES ARE NOT MATES #HerzogNotWelcome

fucking descpicable. i am ashamed to be australian today. arrest this man

DISGUSTING

Fuck Israel and fuck you Australian government for welcoming this disgusting despicable man into the country.

Taylor Swift has officially been inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. She becomes the youngest woman in history to be inducted.

This ICE shit in America reminds me of the before scenes in the handmaids tale where the fake cops shoot at the protestors.

BREAKING: Wife of Renee Good, Becca Good, has just released a statement. : “First, I want to extend my gratitude to all the people who have reached out from across the country and around the world to support our family. This kindness of strangers is the most fitting tribute because if you ever encountered my wife, Renee Nicole Macklin Good, you know that above all else, she was kind. In fact, kindness radiated out of her. Renee sparkled. She literally sparkled. I mean, she didn’t wear glitter but I swear she had sparkles coming out of her pores. All the time. You might think it was just my love talking but her family said the same thing. Renee was made of sunshine. Renee lived by an overarching belief: there is kindness in the world and we need to do everything we can to find it where it resides and nurture it where it needs to grow. Renee was a Christian who knew that all religions teach the same essential truth: we are here to love each other, care for each other, and keep each other safe and whole. Like people have done across place and time, we moved to make a better life for ourselves. We chose Minnesota to make our home. Our whole extended road trip here, we held hands in the car while our son drew all over the windows to pass the time and the miles. What we found when we got here was a vibrant and welcoming community, we made friends and spread joy. And while any place we were together was home, there was a strong shared sense here in Minneapolis that we were looking out for each other. Here, I had finally found peace and safe harbor. That has been taken from me forever. We were raising our son to believe that no matter where you come from or what you look like, all of us deserve compassion and kindness. Renee lived this belief every day. She is pure love. She is pure joy. She is pure sunshine. On Wednesday, January 7th, we stopped to support our neighbors. We had whistles. They had guns. Renee leaves behind three extraordinary children; the youngest is just six years old and already lost his father. I am now left to raise our son and to continue teaching him, as Renee believed, that there are people building a better world for him. That the people who did this had fear and anger in their hearts, and we need to show them a better way. We thank you for the privacy you are granting our family as we grieve. We thank you for ensuring that Renee’s legacy is one of kindness and love. We honor her memory by living her values: rejecting hate and choosing compassion, turning away from fear and pursuing peace, refusing division and knowing we must come together to build a world where we all come home safe to the people we love.”

@adelaidefest You are disgusting

The Adelaide Festival Board, has today advised scheduled writer Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah that they do not wish to proceed with her scheduled appearance at next month’s Writers’ Week. Full statement: bit.ly/AF-Statement

My statement in response to the racist decision to cancel me from Adelaide Writers' Week.

This is one of the most monumental fuck ups in American history.
