Years ago I saved a box of artists pencils from a skip. Derwent watercolour, Faber-Castell leads in many grades, and coloured. Ive never drawn anything but stick figures really. Today I had a crack at a self portrait 😊

Yahudi İzleyici: (ağlayarak) Konuşmanız sırasında Yahudilere yönelik birçok kez Nazi benzetmesi yaptınız. Bu son derece incitici. Bu, Nazi rejimi altında gerçekten acı çekmiş olan insanlar için çok aşağılayıcı. Norman Finkelstein cevap veriyor: — Bu tavra artık saygı duymuyorum. Gerçekten duymuyorum. Bu timsah gözyaşlarından hoşlanmıyorum ve onlara saygı da duymuyorum. (Dinleyicilerden alkışlar ve yuhalamalar yükselir) — Yabancı bir dinleyici kitlesi önünde "Holokost kartını" oynamaktan hoşlanmıyorum ama şu an kendimi buna mecbur hissediyorum. Rahmetli babam Auschwitz'deydi. Rahmetli annem Majdanek toplama kampındaydı. Ailemin her iki taraftan da tüm üyeleri katledildi. Annem ve babam Varşova Gettosu Ayaklanması'na katıldılar. — İşte tam da annem ve babamın bana ve iki kardeşime öğrettikleri dersler nedeniyle, İsrail'in Filistinlilere karşı işlediği suçlar karşısında sessiz kalmayacağım! Onların acılarını ve ölümlerini kullanarak; İsrail'in her gün Filistinlilere karşı işlediği işkence, vahşet ve ev yıkma suçlarını meşru göstermeye çalışmaktan daha aşağılık bir şey düşünemiyorum! — Bu yüzden artık bu gözyaşlarıyla sindirilmeyi veya baskılanmayı reddediyorum. Eğer zerre vicdanın olsaydı, burada döktüğün o gözyaşlarını Filistinliler için döküyor olurdun!

Why is it Sunday when I thought it was Saturday?

This is quite wonderful -

All Pauline Hanson supporters who cheer for the Socceroos in the Men’s World Cup are Cnuts. We don’t make the rules.

I love @cathywilcox1 and - as a woman of Jewish descent - I do not think this is anti semitic. It is political. It is clear eyed. It is accurate.

BREAKING: Live images of Pauline Hanson doin laps of Victoria in Gina Rinehart’s free plane, stopping only to beg Aussie battlers for money, the very people she’s claiming to wanna help. Yeah, righto. 👀 The irony of this could power the state for months.

This is how thoroughly self-centred Zionist Jews are- presenter is wearing her grandmother’s sari, Israeli screams she’s being deliberately antisemitic because of the colours 🙄🙄🙄🙄

What part of religious private schools do people not get? They are all about segregation, exclusion, hierarchy and control.

Echo chambers of ignorance @PaulineHansonOz @Barnaby_Joyce

The science of Antarctica is concerning, amazing, stunning and inspiring. The study of the land under the ice has revealed lakes and rivers down there. Life forms that have been isolated millions of years. Volcanic activity that boggles the mind. So much #science to understand

Rightwing operatives have registered fake progressive parties to steal votes and funnel preferences to One Nation in Victoria. But there’s a fix already on the table – and Victorians have a chance to get it passed before November. Add your name ✍️ getup.to/De58gnCdCx7wFl

Brittany Higgins not mincing her words on why she’s joined Vida Fund to tackle far-right misogyny “With Barnaby Joyce championing this US-style war on reproductive rights, it has never been more important to get organised and take action.” 💥 #auspol

I'm told her next candle fragrance is based on the scent of burning corpses with lingering notes of gunpowder and concrete dust.

After I walked past this lyrebird on my walk this morning, I couldn’t wipe the smile of me face. Not only was it such a pleasure to hear it singing up so close, but I got to see its mating dance, something I ain’t ever seen in real life before. What a moment. Bless. 🩷

In two months I reach my average life expectancy in this country. Seriously. 52.

What a beautiful, stunning, brilliant example of a human. He spent most of his life trying to make others' lives, and the world, better. The world is a better place for him being here Travel well, good sir abc.net.au/news/2026-06-08/p…

Pic of the previous campaign against then-PM Julia Gillard:

A lot of people are saying on social media today that a public campaign against Premier Jacinta Allen using the phrase “Ditch the Witch” isn’t sexist because they’ve heard of MFW and know we proudly use the word witches. Please. They must not have heard about how we started, which was as the result of an extraordinarily sexist text message sent by Peter Dutton to a mate, and which he accidentally sent to a woman journo instead. They must not understand history, in which all women who were in the slightest way outspoken or different or not perfectly aligned with patriarchal requirements were called witches and often viciously murdered for their so-called sins. And they must not understand parody, in which we witches have re-claimed the word “witch” to mean all women who protest the outrageous misogyny so many men practice with barely any constraint. Because we’re here to clearly say that yes: the campaign against Allen is deeply sexist, just as it was sexist when it was used to denigrate then-PM Julia Gillard (pic in comments), and when it’s been used to stir up hatred towards any women with power or influence or anything other than simply being perfectly pretty and perfectly unheard. What’s more, the campaign couldn’t be anything BUT deeply problematic, funded as it has been by a consortium of what appears to be a deeply right-wing group of men who want nothing more than to oust Allen from her job, and promoted widely in #NewsCorpse publications in ways which further harm Allen and her government: “‘[Allan] doesn’t answer questions. She’s not accountable to everything … It’s just how people are feeling. That’s what they’re resorting to’ Puleo said. ‘That’s not a political ad. It’s basically what the Victorian public feel’.” theage.com.au/politics/victo…? The campaign is despicable, and the billboards should be banned. Today. Anything else is unacceptable, and does nothing but show the endemic hatred for women among large sections of conservative men and politics in this country (and among many progressive men and groups too, but that’s another story). For fuck sake, ban these billboards. They’re hate speech. And us calling ourselves witches as a way to parody that hate will never make the use of the word okay in other settings and formats.
