Hey friends, I’m basically never on here anymore, and trying to do a bit less on social media for music and gig promo etc so if you’d like to keep up with what I’m doing, including gigs, recordings and PhD things, please sign up to my mailing list - mailchi.mp/5f37f383cf0d/join…

Yo, not on here much anymore. Elon wrecked it a bit and idiotic the rename was the last straw. If you’re on Threads, pls add me - @ln_k_would (that’s a lower case L at the start. Because my name is LN).

In his interview series, Eric Myers talks with the fabulous @Nelled, award-winning composer, trumpeter, bandleader and educator who is based in Sydney. musictrust.com.au/loudmouth/…

How about it @AlboMP ? Abolish negative gearing, disincentivise snatching up multiple properties, make owning a home affordable. #auspol
GM everyone. Today I’m reminded of the quote, “Everyone gets a plate before anyone gets seconds” Now imagine that, but for housing..

Tweeting about the need to protect the environment from a private jet is the most Labor thing I’ve seen
I wanted to give you an update about the Murray-Darling Basin Plan. Over the last year it has become clear that major elements of the Murray-Darling Basin Plan were either left to drift or actively sabotaged by the Liberals and Nationals.

Regular reminder that unless we pull back on our rampant disregard for nature, extinction of species like the swift parrot is guaranteed. There's no more time for platitudes.

Australia has a very clear policy of ‘no Unprofitable Extinctions’
A huge turnout of people today devastated and outraged that this threatened species habitat at Lee Point is to be bulldozed - in exchange for offsets that are not yet even dreamed up. Old growth habitat cannot be offset.

Another example of how industry, agriculture and profit are prioritised at the expense of Communities, Country and Culture. Taking life-giving resources away from Ali Curung and silencing the community’s opposition is forced assimilation. abc.net.au/news/2023-06-29/b…

Life-giving water, sacred Country, part of a complex ecosystem entwined with culture. Leave it how it is @AlboMP @tanya_plibersek #auspol
Watch the first release in the Water Justice Series now. Featuring voices directly from the remote community of Ali Curung in the central desert of Australia. 30 km to the west of the community is Singleton Station, where Australia's largest groundwater licence was granted.

This warning shot from the music industry should be blasted at every WGA rally. Here @SnoopDogg takes a break from making every other commercial to explain why the biggest issue on the table is transparency, which the DGA's deal ignores. #dontratify #demandtransparency #wgastrike
