I don’t know her name, but this Ukrainian woman should become an icon.

@kylie_evolved When instead of the pay rise I had to ask for after 2 years (you know, to cover rent/childcare in Sydney) and after some achievements that profited the company, I was instead given a cheque of $500, a flippant smile by my boss and a ‘go and buy yourself a lovely pair of shoes’.

@lepoole Just so y’all see the scale of the situation, here’s the email I got from my editor about this…it did end up in that range and I paid for it out of pocket. Publishers do not handle this.

Yes, even if you clearly identify the band, the album, the track, the year, and indicate it's a direct quote. It may not qualify for fair use. Just don't do it.

Dear authors: Stop. Quoting. Song lyrics. Just stop. You don't have explicit written permission from the copyright holders. You probably can't afford permission. Just don't do it.

It’s been another Schitty year, Ew. But, as Johnny said, "Outta bed, it's Christmas, and this year we will be celebrating the holiday!" I hope this Gingerbread Rosebud Motel brings you some Holiday joy! #gingerbreadhouse #schittscreek #danlevy #schittychristmas #rosebudmotel

Everyone’s talking about it but Season 2 of Covid is honestly dull as fuck. Same recycled plot points from S1. Initial shock has given way to depression and tedium. And all the “world leader” characters are stupid to the point of implausibility. Should’ve been a limited series.

@Sydney_Uni why are you running a masterclass in leadership that encourages narcissism & psychopathy as effective in leadership? Those two traits alone kill women, drive #DV perpetrators & do harm. I can’t think of any use for these traits in good leadership #DomesticAbuse

Yesterday a woman was tied up in her backyard and burnt to death. Her 3 young children were inside the house. Right now, the ABC considers it the 7th most important story of the morning (news app). She was tied up and burnt to death. Tied up. Burnt to death. Australia, 2021.

Can’t help thinking the current much needed discussion on the toxic misogyny in politics shows what an amazingly strong woman Julia Gillard was. Her political opponents threw everything at her and now cry crocodile tears for their own.
