I'm saddened and in denial that I will have to abandon my Google Inbox app in March just when I've reached my peak Marie Kondo email life. Seeking a support group.

Devastating for Australian media that Buzzfeed News is being gutted. The quality of reporting rivalled stalwarts of the industry. We need to preserve the diversity of the Australian media landscape.

Tears & standing ovations tonight for sara.townend at the @GuiltFemPod Syd live record, who saw hundreds of people being denied medical care, wrote a letter, galvanised more than #6000doctors to then bring govt to its knees for the historic #Medivac bill. 🙌 🤯🔥@DeborahFW

Just to reiterate: Australia has decided make criminals out of the people who need their own country's help in a disaster situation.

Blown away by the courage of this family. Boyd Unwin, father of Katie Haley (murdered by her partner in 2018), writes today in the SMH, "More men need to come forward and actively condemn this behaviour. It’s not just up to women to try & fix this issue." smh.com.au/lifestyle/life…

If anyone is wondering specifically what Premier Palaszczuk's facial expression looks like here, I am/every woman that has walked the earth since the dawn of time will be happy to demonstrate.
