let’s face it, ‘microdresses’ are just shirts. And then everyone needs to wear shorts under them…so that proves it.

#Breaking | ANU College of Arts & Social Sciences will not face structural changes at this time. No renaming, merging, or disestablishment of areas. Change management appears to have been halted, even walked back completely. It’s unclear the impacts of this announcement on music.

What a load of baloney. There are loads of communities which share…like community toolboxes or buy nothing. I lend my car to others quite often!
This is insane. She completely ignores the fact that people are not going to use their neighbour’s car and that a neighbour is not going to let anyone else use their car. That’s the problem with nonsense like this - it never takes into account basic human nature.

Blowing up your small-town writers festival because your local university needs to crack down on free speech because there’s a genocide we can’t talk about is so utterly on-brand for Australian culture. Cowards and fools 3-deep at the canapés tray

Bree and her child thought they would end up on the street. Broke and out of options. The ACT Rent Relief Fund saved them. That fund was quietly axed on July 4. Just $1.7M a year. 💔 Hundreds helped. Now—nothing. ✍️ Sign: tinyurl.com/3ebd5rsk More: canberradaily.com.au/rent-re…
