More writers should be publishing interviews like this that illustrate the urgency of the situation on the ground. Too few people in the West are grasping the reality of what people in GZ are facing. Make a zine, a comic. Convey the details beyond the headlines.

I went to Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park, land of the Anangu people, recently and it was so unbelievably beautiful. Missing the desert already

710 new born babies. How can anyone defend this in the name of “eradicating Hamas”. “Collateral damage”. Be serious.

Reports suggest some of these campaigns are achieving their target and changing lives… just a few dollars can help x gofund.me/1fb41905

There couldn’t be two objects that more readily sum up privilege and military fetishisation from America and Australia

The denigrative attitude toward casual staff both outside of and within universities needs to stop! You can’t hire people to do the work casually and then treat them like they’re not good enough to do the work with proper working conditions!!

So happy to be at the launch today of “Spaces to Be”, a report on the history of Bi+ groups in Victoria, written by Dr Hamish McIntosh. Happy Bi+ Visibility Day to all! 💖💜💙
