“Just take it” Because might is right? Is this the basic belief that underpins the shows of respect for Russian, North Korean, Chinese leadership? The reason why Ukraine has been abandoned? Why sexual assaults were boasted about? You want it, you take it. 😳 Holy hell 😳😔 How did we get here?

So fortunate to be Australian. Medication collected for a family member today-only the Ozempic is government subsidised, the other prices are simply the cost for 30-200 tablets It blows my mind how much you pay in the USA. 1 AUD = 2/3 of USD

As a woman I fiercely believe in body autonomy. As a physician, there was nothing more scary in my training than watching a woman lose half her blood volume in what seemed like a moment as she bled out in front of me. Without the expert intervention of obstetric colleagues, we would have lost her.

Great, if harrowing piece about the Freebirth Society, who we touched on in our latest Truly Tradly Deeply Episode about motherhood www.theguardian.com/world/ng-int...

The universe captured in a 3 second exposure by my iPhone, no tripod. 8:59 pm, July 25,2025, Goondiwindi, Queensland, Australia I might have missed it, except I had to get out of the car to close the gate. How much do I miss by simply not looking?

Sump oil reflecting concrete walls and ceiling MONA museum, Tasmania. The silver area is a space where you can walk into the art installation. #reflections #ShowMeSomething

Photograph of a black surface reflecting concrete walls and ceiling, with a silver sliver across it, which is an area you can walk into to immerse yourself in a 3-D art experience. The black surface is sump oil.

Australia votes today in our federal election I am grateful for a stable democracy, for compulsory, preferential voting, for the ease with which this process unfolds for me & thankful for the invisible workers who work so hard to make it look so easy Anthony Green, thank you, you will be missed

An entire sea cannot sink a ship unless the water gets inside of the ship. The same with the negativity of the world: it can’t bring you down unless you let it get inside of you. We cannot control what happens around us, but we can control our reaction to it. May your day be peaceful, my friends. 😊
