A wee thread about a young boy and the tweet that got away. Feel free to RT. Three weeks ago my youngest, Gabriel 12, came home upset. His love of woodwork was not deemed cool, nor was only having 6 followers on his instagram. 1/15

Just watched Russia’s main political talk show with notorious propagandist Soloviev (Mar 9). Couldn’t believe my ears. Two hardcore pro-Putin guests - Shaknazarov and Bagdasarov - acknowledged the impact of sanctions, military failures, and called for an end to the invasion.

In news which will surprise no one, the ABS data said literally the opposite of what Rita Panahi has written and I guess no one at the Herald Sun bothered to check. Some real kwality journalism going on there. #auspol

Between now and polling day if you see any politician making an environment claim that you think could be fact-checked get in touch. It could be about emissions, conservation, renewables etc. I'd love to hear from you. DM or [email protected] 🌱

This is a stunning read. Every word a scalpel to the cancer of politics over policy.
I would love ⁦@markgkenny⁩ @canberratimes to be made editor of a metro daily newspaper. Anyone out there smart enough to take up that idea? 🔥🔥🔥 #auspol
