Three hours to queue to meet Nick Cave. Who and how long would you queue to meet someone you adore?

Could not happen to a more deserving person.
Today I've filed against Adelaide University in the Federal Court for breaching my workplace rights to academic freedom and free speech. Since November last year I've been subjected to multiple investigations and am now facing more than 200 allegations and sub-allegations. My crime? That I don't comply with the leftwing orthodoxy of the academy. Not a single allegation pertains to my teaching or research but to an opinion that I hold on abortion, trans ideology, Islam and consent. The university disagrees with my opinion on these controversial topics and has been pursuing me, since last November through multiple misconduct investigations and legal letters sent by their firm Baker McKenzie.

The deportation of temporary visa holders? On what grounds, other than the protesters are racist, white-supremacist deadshits? We DO NOT HAVE "mass immigration". It's a myth created by an international white supremacist movement that's trying to influence Australian politics. π‘
Hundreds of protesters have rallied through Adelaideβs CBD, calling for an end to mass immigration. They argue it is destroying the economy and are calling for the deportation of temporary visa holders. @mjstanley7

Any child can be shy, nervous, uncertain, embarrassed, non tactile, neurodivergent, or even just not well disposed to a particular older person. For any or even no reason, they may not want to be hugged. That is their right.
Involuntary hugging is assault. A child is a person.

Just had brunch with friends. As we were parting ways, I was asked if we were hugging today. Yes, we were. Is this not the norm?

Iβm now mentally ill because I have boundaries when it comes to being touched. Why would a man think it ok to touch me and to call me mentally ill when I object? Peak entitlement and misogyny.

The response to me allowing my kids to have boundaries. Why does this man think itβs ok to touch kids who do not want to be touched?

Itβs quite odd that it appears to be mostly men insisting they be allowed to hug children and insisting there is something wrong with children wanting boundaries. Needless to say Iβm a retard etc., for my opinion π

One of the biggest drivers of radicalisation is poverty, injustice and lack of hope for a decent future. How about we start there?
Australians are being exposed to extremist content online at an increasingly young age, and the risks are growing.
Evidence heard by the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security this week highlighted the need for a closer examination of what is driving radicalisation and how we can respond.
I spoke with @News24Aust about the PJCIS inquiry's work and the steps needed to better protect our communities.

Kid got his license on Monday. For the first time in 12 months, I do not have to get up at 4.30am to supervise the drive to work. π

Gosh we are a peculiar lot. Never been more connected, informed and capable of changing the world.
And we've made kindness radical.
And truth negotiable.
And greed respectable.

This is true. It does not take away from the fact that what happened to Helen Haines is shocking, wrong and terrible. But some unknown woman? Yeah...no one would care and we have to be honest about this. No one is lighting up buildings for dead homeless and women murdered by DV.
I've a gut wrenching feeling if the victim had been an unknown woman, the incident would barely have made the evening news.
We need solutions to keep all in communities safer.
