Shout out to all the amazing staff at Qantas who worked so hard to get QF648 to Melb. Special mention to the bus lounge staff in Perth and Claire & her team on the flight. Also to the unseen flight engineers who worked to make the plane safe 👏👏👏

Happy #InternationalDayofSignLanguages🤟 From bushfires to the coronavirus pandemic, 2020 has highlighted for all Aussies just how important it is to make sure everyone has access to full and clear information, including those who are #Deaf via the use of #signlanguage #IDSL2020

This week is Mental Health Week so here are some activities to connect with others, have a bit of fun, and look after your mental health during October! #Lookafteryourmentalhealthaustralia #StrongerTogether #MentalHealthForAll

Love it when the LGBT community shows how love conquers hate 🏳️‍🌈 It's nice to see something positive #LoveisLove #ProudBoys nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1…

Each year in Oct as part of #MentalHealthWeek, I take a moment to practice #gratitude by handwriting cards of appreciation 🙏 This simple act allows me to reflect on all the amazing people I've been fortunate to meet 🤟 DM me your address so I can send you a card in 2020 📬

Thank for all the messages of support & love from friends, former #qldpol colleagues, people in #Gympie & the wider #LGBT community. Talking about #suicide and #mentalhealth is never easy but it is important & your words of encouragement make it easier to do so 💙 #loveislove

RIP Prince Philip Prince. Naval Officer. Husband. Love of Queen Elizabeth’s life and her “strength and stay". But before all these there is one title that may be overlooked. #CODA - Child of Deaf Adults His mother, Princess Alice of Battenberg, was #Deaf. #RIPPrincePhillip

Shows what can be done if we are willing

In 1986 the Honourable Kim Beazley AC; as the then Minister of Defence, signed my Commission to become an Officer in the government Fast forward 35 years and as Governor of Western Australia, it was a privilege to accept his invitation to speak at @govhousewa 1/3

Back in 1986 there was a ban on homosexuals serving in the Australian Defence Force - which extended to bisexual men like myself so we remained in the closet. So it was an honour to be asked to speak today about vulnerable cohorts like the #LGBTI community in ageing 2/3

As always when I speak I like to share with the audience one key point. Today it was - Heterosexuals are not normal, they are just common With 11 - 15% of the population identifying as gender or sexually diverse we can all do our part to make people feel included 🏳‍🌈🦄 #LGBT

I know that the young man who yelled ‘faggot’ at me doesn't read my social media posts. But the reason #LGBTIQA+ Australians have up to fourteen times higher rates of suicide attempts is that this kind of bigotry is still happening today. medium.com/@davidgibson_8…

A birthday memory from another time Amy Remeikis Here's to #DeathtotheDixer 🤣

🏳‍🌈 ⚔ Honoured to share my story with the Defence and Veterans Legal Service on #IDAHOBIT day! 📰🌟 Grateful to the Royal Commission into Defence and Veteran Suicide for giving a platform to shed light on the diverse mental health challenges serving and ex-defence members face. #LGBTIQ createsend.com/t/y-5101BA4973…

📢 I'm thrilled to announce that I've been accepted to present at the ASPG conference My topic “Queering Up the Debate: Freedom of Speech seen through a #LGBTQIA lens” will delve into the impact of #parliamentarydebates on the #Queer community #LGBTI #Inclusivity #WAParliament

This is what high-functioning anxiety looks like... 🧠😨 Behind that confident facade lies a ongoing battle with self-doubt & overthinking. My #ASPG presentation on 'Queering Up the Debate - #FreeSpeech from an #LGBTI Lens' 🏳️‍🌈🔎 #MentalHealth #Anxiety #ImposterSyndrome #AusPol
