- Comment on The New South Wales government has called on Gareth Ward to resign after the state MP was found guilty of sexually abusing two young men 14 hours ago:
I’m local, he’s my state M.P. The reason he was re-elected was because he was (and undoubtedly still is) extremely popular with the kind of people who live in this part of the world - by which I mean (mainly) white and well-off. He’s without doubt one of the slimiest most vile and repugnant people I’ve ever met, but he has this base he’s built in almost Trump-like way that loves him. Women of a certain age defend his every action on the local FB groups and are giving off very Trump-like vibes about the verdict (“how could the jury do this?” etc). He will, of course, appeal the verdict because he has literally nothing to lose by doing so.
- Comment on Rightwing lobby group Advance says it makes ‘no apology’ for support given to anti-Greens groups 3 months ago:
They’ve got absolutely fuck all of any use to say about anything - they’re just ‘anti’ the greens. No policies, no big ideas, just opposed to another party. Fucking useless nazis.

Thunderstorm just rolling over the village, but the house battery is fully charged and I need not fear the inevitable power cut.

Made chunky bolognaise in the Thermomix we inherited from my dad and it fucking rocked. Wasn’t sure about the worcestershire sauce and the chilli flakes, but went with it - very glad I did.
