Wiradjuri, Wailwan, and Wongaibon and proud of it. Family, Country, Self. Anti-racist, anti-greed, anti-elite. My respect is yours to lose. No DM. No GoFundMe. Water Warrior.

Good morning my peers. Another wonderful day ahead for me, I'm taking a Ranger group out on Country to share knowledge and stories and learn something in return. You're probably sick of hearing it, but, I love my life. Have an amazing day. 🖤💛❤️

Who has the steering wheel? With the largest parliamentary majority in my lifetime, why can't the government pass suitable laws to limit gambling advertising?

Whoa, wait up! The deputy leader of Un-Nation (Barnacle Juice), a sitting member of parliament, who is guilty of lying drunk in a Canberra gutter whilst swearing into the wrong end of his phone and shagging his staffer despite being married with kids at the time, is demanding the PM apologize. 😳

Hmmm. I just watched the interview with the PM about the melons. If you have a problem with it, I think it's you that has the problem. At no point did I believe that he was making crude innuendo at the expense of the Japanese PM.

Highs and lows today. Vale Lindsey (Dudley) Frazer. I said goodbye to a mate and a very funny man, an old bike rider from way back to the days when Easter meant the Bathurst Bike Races. It was nice to catch up with some old friends and meet some of his new ones as well. Goodbye old mate. ❤️

Welcome to day 3 of the 7am experiment. In an effort to get my sleep pattern under control I am trying to sleep till 7am. I managed to stay awake till 10:30 last night but still sleep is broken up with long periods of staring at the ceiling. Any tips?

Australians will fill out a Census on Tuesday and I implore you to tell the truth. Some religious groups are pushing you to write "Christian" for religion and if you are, by all means list it, if you're not then tick "None". Statistics are important. 😊

Small things trigger small minds. I read a rant complaining about Aboriginal people saying the word "Proud" when sharing a Welcome To Country, Really? I should think we would all be proud of our history and our origins. There are none so blind, as those who will not see. 🖤💛❤️

Friday I had the pleasure of taking two friends exploring on Country. We saw Carved, Scarred and Modified trees around the area and swapped stories about family and childhood. I live for days like that. Bring on the next one.

'Morning peers! What a day, drizzling rain and it's expected to get heavier as the day goes on, let's hope so. Breakfast with the Chew Crew this morning then a short drive to catch up with a cousin in Trangie. I do look forward to catching up with relatives. I hope your day is as good as mine. 🖤💛❤️

Ask. Listen. Change. I'm a hugger but not everyone is, I've learnt to ask before acting as it can make some people feel uncomfortable if you invade their personal space. Yesterday I met a couple of dozen new friends, nearly every one was a hugger, what are the odds? ❤️

Get checked. I went to the doctor with a hearing problem, intermittent buzzing in my ears. While discounting various possibilities they discovered "Nodules" in my Thyroid, 1 benign and 2 malignant. I would never have known if I just put up with it. Get checked=live longer. (It's a male thing).

'Morning all. Happy NAIDOC week. We have our celebration a little later than most, mainly to enjoy warmer weather but also it allows other Nations to attend. I've been asked to share a Welcome To Country this year, I'm very proud and very grateful for the opportunity to speak for my Elders. 🖤💛❤️

The Shire Council Meet and Greet in Trangie today was a huge disappointment. Only one other community member bothered to turn up. It was good to chat to some people who don't support Renewables and find out their reasons why. Thanks for listening without arguing. 👍

At 2 PM Oz will test its new disaster alert system, no problem there. They particularly advise people that have a "Safe" phone for emergencies. I find it deeply disturbing that anyone feels so unsafe in a relationship that they need to keep a secret phone in case of partner violence. That's sad. 💔

I was interested to hear a journo label Labor as authoritarian simply because there was no dissent at the conference? Surely the opposition is a glaring example of what happens when personalities place themselves above policy? I didn't vote Labor but I'm not unhappy with their overall performance.

Oh what giddy heights humanity has achieved through "progress". A Queensland man has used deep fake, sexually explicit images to harass and attack multiple women for over 5 years. He put up fake poster images with social media and home address details for the women. Who does that? #Sick

What a beautiful day, 20° and sunny with a light breeze. The kind of day you want to just soak up the sun after those cool days of winter.

Quick, lock the door and everyone stay quiet. Pauline might think we've moved and go back to the mother land. Well she's not happy here and she upsets the neighbors so let her stay in Grate Britton.

Yet another Aboriginal Death in custody reported this morning. 🖤💛💔 If only we'd had a Royal Commission deliver 331 recommendations 30 years ago to help guide our politicians to reduce future numbers.😞
