Asked Siri to play me some “hopeful music about revolution”.

First up was This is America (Childish Gambino), then Get Up, Stand Up, and then NWA’s Fuck the Police. Incredible. Also Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On but that was more expected. #UnderstoodTheAssignment #JoinTheResistance

I’m an abolitionist except for billionaires. Like, I hope there’s an investigation when this is all over and they both rot in prison. #Musk #Trump #TheDivorceFiles

And then some smart-arse little white cell going: “Or do we just stand back and let them duke it out?”

And I imagine that’s what is going to happen in the next few hours before the more experienced parts of the immune system call in the back-ups. “Look what happened to Harald...”

I have the latest Pfizer Covid vaccine in my left arm & the last flu vaccine in my right.

I vaguely understand how mRNA vaccines work so I’m imagining the vaccines shedding their ’shell’ & revealing the spike protein & whatever & my immune system going, “we’re under attack from both sides!”

Does anyone else randomly jot down titles for their (theoretical, future) PhD or their (theoretical, non-existent) autobiography?

My latest are, respectively: From inchoate resistance to Imbricated agency (PhD) and Loose Threads: unravelling a layered life (autobiography).

Just me then?

A chalkboard wall covered in colourful joyous phrases written by trans gym participants including “gain mass, don’t pass”, “the kids at school told me to grow a pair — so I did!” and “my pronouns are he/slay”.

Enjoying the graffiti wall at T-Gen Gyms today, especially the exhortation to have a cute day resisting empire and savouring joy. So here for that.

the fundamental disconnect between the manosphere and reality is that they are incapable of understanding that this is - according to every woman I’ve ever met - the sexiest thing a man has ever done

Gaza will be entirely destroyed, Israeli minister says Bezalel Smotrich says Palestinians will ‘leave in great numbers to third countries’, raising fears of ethnic cleansing

Israel ramps up their genocide in Gaza but the Greens are being unkind by pointing it out. Uh huh.

Drive it like you stole it, stop fucking around, deal with climate change, poverty, and deal with inequality to pay for it. Deal with industry transition, deal with education costs, accept that large investments in ourselves today pay for more than themselves in the future. And dental in Medicare

This moment when the penny drops that trying to implement bathroom bans is an impossibility for the former Tory Chief Secretary Simon Clarke is delicious.

Anth is going to be most pissed if he misses the election… hopefully that’ll be impetus enough for him to drag himself out of limbo and back to the land of the sweary, just so he can celebrate Dutton losing his seat or at least shake his fist at the TV given it’s Anthony Green’s last election too. 🤞🏽

Awful news, Tim. Anth and I were close back in the day & he went to extraordinary lengths to take care of my cat, Jezebel, when I couldn’t. Huge love to Elly & their child. Obv I’m far away in Naarm but please let me know if there’s anything I can do from here.

Came back from National Folk Fest with dreaded nonspecific lurgy. Good news: not covid or flu. Bad news: ow, my throat.

Extra bad news: supposed to be running a full-day workshop tomorrow. Fingers crossed this is 24-hours and I still have a voice tomorrow.

Anyone remember BUGA UP? We need your spray cans now!

Just alter all the Trumpets of Patriots billboards so they say “Trump’s Parrots”. Truth in advertising for the win!

I can’t even. I also agree that any journalist who continues to use Trump’s “reciprocal tariff” language is effectively publishing propaganda.
