I think someone is doing drunken karaoke on a microphone somewhere. No judgement. Been there done that.

Thanks for all the support lovely people. The community grows stronger with solidarity and I'll sleep well tonight. Transphobia is actually becoming less common but more nasty because so many of us call it out. The terf numbers are thinning and I feel safe in women's spaces just like all the women I interact with feel safe with me in them. They won't win and will find some other marginalised group to target as our marginalisation diminishes, which happens every day we show each other support like you all have tonight. Thanks, my cup runeth over!

I don’t get the governments decision to block the tpg (Vodafone) and Telstra regional sharing deal. 3 used to roam onto Telstra, it worked great! The governments position was that it’s anti competition. But I mean, even when Vodafone were owned by Vodafone they had 0 interest in expanding the network regionally. It’s never gonna happen. This isn’t gonna inspire tpg to go spend hundreds of millions building out the network in the bush.

Saw lots of birds on my walk this morning, mostly native birds in the native trees. This makes me happy, watching their busy little lives.

Saw &Juliet last night, what a fun show!! It was cute to see some die hard fans there, I imagine the singalong show they did last week would have been hilarious. Probably one of most interactive audiences I've seen at a Melbourne show.

If anyone has read and enjoyed “The Three Body Problem” trilogy by Liu Cixin, Netflix will release a movie based on the first book.

An outstanding sci-fi piece of work.
