Teacher: I feel so exhausted all the time. Central Office: Have you tried yoga or running or meditation. Let’s stop telling teachers to do yoga and meditate (UNLESS that’s what they want and choose to do). Instead, let’s advocate for making teaching a sustainable career!

If you have ovaries, hello half of Australia, then the chances are you will experience some symptoms of Menopause but probably won’t ever talk about. But Lisa Curry, Kathy Lette and Jessica Rowe want to change that, so let's talk about Menopause.

No female politician, no indigenous politician could survive a video like this. That’s what white male privilege gets you - indulgence for your mistakes.

My Mum Christine passed away at the age of 65 in 2017 from a Grade 4 Glioblastoma Brain Tumor. We miss her so much and that’s why this event is so important, so we can help find a cure! relayforlife.org.au/s/33060/…

I haven’t been able to participate in the Relay for Life since 2019 but this year I’ve created a team to walk in Mum’s honour! Let me know if you’d like to join my team ‘Christine’s Crew’ or I’d really appreciate your support through donations! Thanks in advance 💜

Asked what he’ll now do for indigenous Australians Peter Dutton said that between now and the next election he’ll take advice from Jacinta Price and then formulate policies. One voice. One. Do you get the irony?
