There is no intrinsic, moral or pragmatic reason why white men should rule this country. It’s a cultural norm, and cultural norms change. Let’s do this thing. #IWD2021

#ICYMI: "The issue is not here having an educational program just about consent. I think the educational program we need is: what gives young boys, old men, middle-age men... the impression that they are entitled to violate the body of another human being?" - @georgiedent

PARENTS to teachers: We know you are doing your best, thank you. It's OK if you can't get your lessons to us, we'll work something out later, it's really fine. ❤️ TEACHERS to parents: We know you are mostly not set up or able to home school. Do what you can, it's really fine. ❤️

This young man is 17. A member of his local Scout Group. He’s been doing 12 hour shifts in the Bega Valley with his RFS brigade. As we say in Scouts, BRAVO. What a champion. Photo credit 1st Cobargo Scouts.

Reminder: Nationals leader Michael McCormack said in November it was "disgraceful, disgusting" to link climate change with bushfires. "We've had fires in Australia since time began" he said, slamming "inner-city raving lunatics" for raising climate change. smh.com.au/politics/federal/…

Hi. I'm in New Zealand. This is bushfire smoke. In case anyone needs reminding that the Australian Government is letting down the world, not just its constituents.

Heading to the State Control Centre in Melbourne this morning to receive a briefing on firefighting efforts. This is an unprecedented crisis, but our emergency workers have made us so proud. We can never thank them enough.

For those monitoring the fires on the digital earth hotspots website - the hotspots near Wollongong are caused by the steelworks and are NOT bushfires. Not all hotspots are fires and the site shouldn't be used when making fire safety decisions. #PSA #NSWfires
