Today I was refused entrance to Stratford Mags unless I agreed to a ‘pat down’ search. I explained I was happy for my bag, pockets, coat etc to be searched, but I did not understand why a pat down is necessary - I did not want to be patted down because of my last experience (1/?)

Six - YES SIX - women have been murdered across Australia in seven days. Police have today charged a male over the death of a woman at Felixstow, SA, last week. She is the 66th woman lost to violence in 2023 and the 6th woman killed across the past week.
Today South Aussie #HumanRights champion & #Disability rights lawyer, Natalie Wade, will give the @DisabilityLead Oration 2023.

Four women in my home state murdered this week, allegedly at the hands of intimate/former partners. I’m sickened by the statistics. The slaughter has to stop. Saturday is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women #IDEVAW. This violence is preventable😢
AWL held its AGM in Adelaide today, with a new board elected. With a lot to look forward to in 2024, we also said goodbye to retiring board members. Farewell @Leah_Marrone former AWL President, thank you for your significant contribution to women lawyers everywhere.

Well, it’s an unwritten law of Australiana that anything dubbed “Bonza” is exactly the opposite.
Also, while I'm here, something can only be 'centred on' something, not 'centred around' it. Please stop saying this as it enrages me.
Why have people started saying that something is 'based off' something else. Shouldn't it be 'based on'? Hasn't it always been 'based on'? What is happening with the world? Who agreed to this? Why wasn't I given advance warning so I could lodge an objection? Annoyed of Melbourne
