My colleagues and I are striking because Nine won’t offer us fair wages. Meanwhile the CEO is living his best life at the Olympics and refuses to answer questions about the terrible optics of this

Editorial workers at Nine Publishing mastheads will be on strike from 11am AEST tomorrow. We want a pay rise in line with CPI, a commitment to workplace diversity, safeguards around AI and a fair deal for freelancers. #MEAAmedia #DontTorchJournalism

Nine recently gave a boss accused of misconduct a $1 million payout. It’s putting up Scotty Cam in a five star hotel for the Paris Olympics. But this very profitable company refuses to offer its journalists fair pay. That’s why we’re striking. @withMEAA #DontTorchJournalism

I’m striking tomorrow because we all deserve better. This is a media company that is actually profitable! In 2024! The workers who made that possible should at least be entitled to a fair wage and stable jobs. #DontTorchJournalism @withMEAA
Journalists at @smh, @theage, @FinancialReview, @brisbanetimes & @WAtoday are among the best in Australia. They deserve to be paid fairly, to have diverse workplaces & protections over the use of AI. #MEAAmedia #DontTorchJournalism

if anything can prove the lasting importance of the monarchy it’s this blockbuster ceremony of old men grimacing while reading lines like “I promise I love the king” off cue cards and tenderly touching many cups

I went to a GP today who told me he had “never seen anyone this pregnant before”. At this point (34 weeks with 2 babies the size of PINEAPPLES) it’s just nice to excel at something.

Why is “hanging out” a value in itself? Frankly, reading articles, poetry , prose on an iPhone is often more valuable than aimless chatter. These frequent complaints of individuals with habits that seem “new” are becoming tedious. We’ve all tried chit-chat, thanks.

Super thankful to The Age for sending me along to cover Camp Cope's final Melbourne show. It was intimate and joyous, and oh so bittersweet. And I feel like fighting the patriarchy can be classified as a sport. theage.com.au/culture/music/…

Please enjoy Austin Butler’s reaction to hearing I’m pregnant with twins and have been playing them old Elvis tracks. The man has really done his research.
