This week Peter Dutton suggested cutting school funding in an attempt to stop ‘wokeness’, but was unable to define what ‘woke’ means.
If only there were publicly funded places people could go to learn things like the definitions of words.
People asking what radicalised us, as if millennials didn't grow up on a diet of 'Fern Gully' and 'Captain Planet!

My husband & I went for eye checks & the optometrist called him in first, even though he scheduled the appointments so l'd go first, & if you know anything about Luke you'll know this will make him feel guilty for at least a week so it’s an ideal time for me to bring the weirder renovations I'd like

Explaining to everyone (myself) that once again Costco are showing that they’re a more ethical employer and provider generally, so going there is both a little treat and a little community action that is quietly supporting resistance work in the states. Repeating this while eating Ben and Jerrys…
