Happy Australian census night to those who celebrate.

Friendly reminder that slavery is legal in the US so long as the slaves are prisoners. American prisoners produce 11 billion dollars of value per year and are paid as little as 12 cents an hour. They can be punished for refusing - they are FORCED. Human beings are rented out to others like property.

I've gotten back into Pokemon Go to get myself out of the house more. My friend code is 682458109238 if anyone's still playing.

Fixing the car ourselves is going about as well as I expected. We've done blood, sweat, and tears. Now trying WD40 to see if that works better.

Took the train into the city and went exploring today. Last time I was in St. Patrick's cathedral I was in too much awe to take pictures, so I made a point of it this time. #Melbourne is rapidly turning me into a city person. There's so much to see, so much culture, and it's all so alive.

they'll wear the skin of god and the skin of science, but only because its a dead thing they killed

So recently I made it to the final round of interviews for the absolute perfect job for me, and it was very close but they went with someone else. Today they called me back! The other new hire fell through! I'm going to be employed again!!!!

no one wants to consider my insane pitch which is to eliminate timezones across the planet so we’re all on the exact same time and force everyone to change their conception of what a day is

More upset about Sam Neill than I probably have any right to be. Early on as a trans man you have to ask yourself "What kind of man do I want to be? Who am I becoming?" Sam Neill was the kind of man I want to be, and the kind of man I hope I am becoming. He will be missed.

Hoping that The Onion or New Infowars does some sort of "we know he's a joke, and it's up our alley, but we're not gonna cover Nigel Farage because it's beneath Count Binface's dignity" piece.

BREAKING: Cause of massive Telstra disruption confirmed.

I'm so disillusioned, I almost don't even care who gets the FIFA Peace Prize next year

Every time I think I hate AI as much as I possibly could, I discover some fresh horror.

I used to think Bond villains were a ridiculous conceit... theconversation.com/a-million-ne...

Passed the phone interview and have a trial shift next Tuesday 🙌🏻 Employment is so close I can almost taste it

Infuriating how much better I feel after going for a walk. Hate how well it works. Will try to do it more often.

The fact that “is this candidate masculine enough” is still a frequent topic of debate at all shows just how far we have to go to unlearn misogyny

Why did you transition, right answers only? I realised that unnecessary suffering didn't actually make me a better person, it just made me miserable, and that if there was a creator, they probably didn't enjoy watching me waste my existence trying desperately to not be who they made me.

I always thought the evil MIL trope was really ridiculous and mean spirited, and for my trouble I have received a future MIL who would probably kill me in my sleep if I gave her the opportunity. I'm very grateful for the vastness of the Pacific Ocean between us.

My heart breaks for my trans whānau in Aotearoa. I know what it feels like to be betrayed by your government. When I fled the USA, yours was the first country that welcomed me. I felt safe for the first time since I began my transition. Now I see America's illness is catching. Kia kaha. 💔

No one warns you when you move to a new country that you will catch every single cold your new home has to offer. I have been sick more in the last year than the ten years before that combined. It's easier to count the days between illnesses. My immune system is having a Rocky training montage.

Me ten minutes after I've had a tantrum about splitting the béarnaise

Going to be sad when free and reduced tram fares end. It's so nice to hop on for three or four stops to run an errand. The way the fares discourage short trips is ridiculous, especially away from peak hours.

Sunset after the storm was so beautiful we stepped outside just to stare at it.

Maybe it's just because I've had to listen to Donald Trump, but I thought the Albanese address was pretty good. I had forgotten politicians could be so calm and not either stark raving mad or dripping with venom. I think it suffered more from too much hype than from the actual content.

I wasn't paying much attention and accidentally made the best potato soup of my entire life. Probably won't be able to replicate it so I'm showing it off on the internet. Forgive my sloppy green onions. I can do better, I just didn't.

Just got a YouTube advert for the United States. The country I fled because they wanted to take away my rights, healthcare, and happiness, would like my tourism dollars too. While the airports are manned by Nazis. Fuck off.

We have a litre of milk and a litre of lemonade in the fridge and I bet you can guess what I put in my coffee this morning.

If the US likes regime change so much they should try it themselves.

Just bought New Zealand butter at Australian Costco for nearly half the price we paid in New Zealand. So I guess you're actually paying MORE than export price?? It's a scam.
