Aussie playwright Suzie Miller won a prestigious Olivier Award on London's West End for her one woman play 'Prime Facie' which starred Jodie Comer. Now she's turned that powerful story into a novel. @SuzieMillerWrtr #PrimeFacie @MacmillanAus #Studio10

Liberal Senator Linda Reynolds requested transcripts of Brittany Higgins' testimony from Bruce Lehrmann's defence lawyer before she was to give her own testimony! Reynolds' own lawyer told her this was highly inappropriate! 😲#LehrmannTrial

Today I learned that there is a family of crabs that can swim. They have a special pair of back legs called swimmerets that allow them to activate turbo mode. Terrifying xitter.cf/DepthsBeIow/status/157…
