Journalist: "What do you think is your greatest achievement?" David Bowie: "Marrying my wife." "But as a musician?" "Nothing else matters." On this day in 1992, David married Iman and remained together until his death.
“Happiness is in the quiet, ordinary things. A table, a chair, a book with a paper-knife stuck between the pages. And the petal falling from the rose, and the light flickering as we sit silent.” Virginia Woolf
Yesterday in a crowded country Telstra shop. Approached old lady with a mobility device to offer her my chair. Her reply, “No I do NOT want to sit down!” Thinking she was angry with the wait for service I said I don’t work here. “Well it’s NONE of your business then!” 😳
Garbage collectors in Ankara, Turkey, started noticing an increasing number of books being thrown away. Rather than let them end up in landfills, they began rescuing the books. Initially, they shared the books with colleagues and families. As the collection grew, they decided to…
Why is it legal for politicians to lie? Why doesn’t Australia legislate to require truth in political advertising? Why not introduce significant penalties for false and misleading political behaviour and misconduct? thesaturdaypaper.com.au/comment/topic/… via @SatPaper
I remember as a medical student not exactly understanding my place or role on the team. Feeling superfluous. But I’ve seen first hand countless situations where students changed the clinical course of a patient for the better. A 🧵 1/n
i know that extreme makeover: home edition had some weirdness/ethical concerns but they should make a tv show where they make the family homes of kids with disabilities and developmental delays safe and functional. it would be life-changing.

when i was a kid we had to go to a church food bank to receive free ramen, mac & cheese, hamburger helper (without the hamburger) & other such items. I never felt "less than" but I also never knew who provided what we were gifted. The church bought my mom a car one time when she…
Autism is like a perpetual state of being under estimated and over estimated - both are an injustice and that happens because people don’t even understand what it is - it’s incredibly complex and not easy to grasp at all - Autism awareness has only touched the sides
Just drove an hour each way to take my beautiful autistic son for afternoon activities with other similar teen boys. While waiting I did an hour of family grocery shopping. As I was driving away from home, my husband said he was happy I was going to have some “me”time! #selfcare

Hank the tank has had a tough life on the streets and if we had been a day or 2 later he wouldn’t have made it with the maggots eating him. Once he was fully recovered it was very hard to find Hank a home. He couldn’t fly abroad, was a very big boy and also slightly older. The…
I’m not a Swiftie, but I am loving the excitement and camaraderie of the (mostly) young (mostly) girls and women, who have had a rough few years. Dressing up! Singing! Dancing! Friendship bracelets! What’s not to love seeing their happiness.
I don’t understand the opposition to masks in hospitals. Even if you don’t think covid is a risk (it is) … universal masking reduces the risk of all kinds of hospital acquired infections. They can be very serious & have been a threat in hospitals for years. Masks make sense.
@NSWHealth This is pathetic. Follow the Victorian advice for COVID-19 instead. 😷 Wear a mask 🏠 Stay home if sick ⏰Test if you have symptoms 🌳 Let fresh air in or meet outdoors 💉Stay up to date with your vaccinations 💊 Talk to your GP about COVID medicines.

Funny how I've never heard a woman say, "When my son was born I finally realized that men are people! Every man alive is someone's SON, maybe a BROTHER or NEPHEW! I knew I'd do anything to keep my boy safe and that violence against men is NOT OKAY! Ladies can I get an awomen 🙏"
This chap bought a field next to the canal...dug a trench out to the canal...sailed his boat in...filled the trench up behind him....he now lives there....apparently you don't need planning permission for a boat.
My wife is at a wedding of one of her relatives. I couldn't bring myself to attend because I don't approve of the couple's lifestyle. No, it's not a same-sex wedding. It's two homeschooled kids, ages 18 & 17, getting married just so they can have sex without sinning. No joke. 1/
@RonniSalt I live in regional Victoria, 90 minutes from Melbourne. You can see and hear the toxicity as you take the dog for a walk. It's quite alarming. Virtually, no mental health practitioners here or addiction services.
@RonniSalt A point at the rally I was attending relating to cross-border situations. The offence was committed on one side of the border, but the support services closest were across the river. Just seemed to complicate matters when dealing with police.
My husband has just realised that late 1980’s was over 35 years ago! 😂😂😂😂
Isn’t it funny how when we were all teenagers we all wanted to be the same and then you enter your 50’s and we are all so different. Is it life experience? Whatever it is, God I love being over 50. Apart from the aches and pains we are all unique.
Back from the soft play. From my post on Facebook inviting someone for coffee 3 turned up. 2 I already knew and another mummy whose son is 14. He doesn’t want to talk to anyone and Joe doesn’t talk at all. It seems they could be the best of friends. Everyone happy. 😊
On the back of a story I read here I was reminded of one time when Joe was about 10 years old. Waiting for his bus in the garden. He was jumping and twirling and making noises as you know he is non verbal. 3 young boys about the same age were walking on their way to school. 🧵1/

Women are dead or hurt because they couldn’t afford to leave. Increase Centrelink payments. Abolish the partner income test.
Cultural change on DV in the last decade has been extraordinary. It's profoundly moving to see my mum (and nan) understand what happened through contemporary theories/vocabs of abuse. But without real, structural change & meaningful protection/support, these feel like mockery.
When my mum left my dad- "I knew if I stayed he'd kill me"- she moved to a small place with nominal rent. We've talked about how impossible this would be now, and what that might have meant. Housing justice can't be left out of discussions about DV - women need somewhere to go.
I am, in fact, exactly like other girls. Thank you for noticing. I love being like other girls actually. It's called rejoicing in our shared humanity and making friends and texting each other memes, look it up
