I’ve got until 2pm to finish all my work, finish writing high school applications and get a couple of books off to press. So I can then pick up the kid, pack multiple suitcases and turn my out of office on. Sure, I can do that? Oh yeah and throw in procrastinating twitter time ..

Sooooo there is no @AustralianLabor candidate for Bankstown in the NSW election, now? Wow. What a cluster fluff. You’re going to lose one of the safest seats 🤦🏼‍♀️ I just can’t.

@_budgie IRC message boards! Was a huuuuge thing in that period. All the channels were #something like #gothic or #rave and it was hash not hashtag.
