Last month saw #TransAwarenessWeek & #InternationalMensDay coincide. May I mansplain that a key solution to the scourges of 1)male violence against women & 2)men’s poor mental health & suicide is to embrace gender diversity. Toxic biological gender roles & stereotypes are the problem 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️

Get your tickets to Vocal Spectrum Wed 5 Nov at Brisbane Powerhouse, part of Melt Festival. The Australian Vocal Ensemble will be performing a very special commissioned piece — @joetwistmusic.bsky.social has set the words to my poem ‘Abundantly Blue’ to music!!! www.melt.org.au/events/vocal...

“Sing the World”. Brisbane-based film, TV, instrumental, & choral composer @joetwistmusic.bsky.social wrote “Let me Sing the World” for Canticum in 2024. Inspired by themes of renewal and hope, this expressive choral work invites listeners to experience healing and joy amid life's challenges.

Guys, go find this instagramz. Same handle as their bluesky @joetwistmusic.bsky.social I swear to god this is some of the best cat and also music content I’ve ever seen lol. 😂😹💦 Yes, most excellent indeed.

I didn’t realise I had accidentally signed out of #BlueSky. For some stupid reason I’ve been on Twitter. It’s a nightmare filled with fascists bigoted gronks. Glad to be back. Trans women are women, trans men are men btw 🏳️‍⚧️

Join us as we celebrate 30 years with founding director Emily Cox. "Sing the World" features works from around the globe, including our 2024 commission by @joetwistmusic.bsky.social. This is gorgeous repertoire, not to be missed! Rosalie: www.trybooking.com/DCCHK Sandgate: www.trybooking.com/DCCHO

Australian election cheat sheet for our international cousins: - The “Liberals” are the pro-Trump bad guys, and wear blue. - Labor are the pro-democracy good guys, and wear red. There are loads of minor parties and independents, but the unifying call is PUT THE LIBERALS LAST.

We all know #PeterDutton @peterduttonmpposts.bsky.social is a thug (Malcom Turnbull’s words). Turns out he’s also a grub #DuttonInsideTrader #auspol

Tragic 😞 slippedisc.com/2025/01/disa...

The Coalition have also taken lessons from Trump and other nationalistic campaigns in recent years -claim time is 'running out' to 'save' the country. There's no substance behind any of it - you only need to read Boris Johnson's book to see how much of a joke so much of it is, but it will run

This is what happens when I write the word “cisgender” in a tweet. Amidst this ridiculous discussion of Zuckerberg’s #Meta #FactCheck & #censorsgip, this is LITERALLY censored on Elon Musk’s #X #Twitter How the fuck is this not LITERALLY censorship???

Thanks everyone for an amazing 2024. I can’t believe I had an opera (oratorio) have a season in the Sydney Opera House this year. Seriosuly that is still insane to me. Wow. So excited for fabulous stuff coming up in 2025 including a bunch of recordings of my music. 😍🙏💖 #HappyNewYear

Peter Dutton knows that calling inclusion divisive is the true division. That’s why he’s doing it. #auspol

Hi, I’m God. Healthcare should be free. Love, God

Wondering if most #Aussies on #BlueSky voted #Yes23 for #VoiceToParliament. I dedicated a bunch of time to volunteer on the #GoldCoast and was absolutely heartbroken and angered by the result. We also received constant verbal attacks and threats 🖤💛💔 #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBeAboriginalLand

Someone gave me a hint… 😱😱😱 #Wordle 1,254 1/6 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

👇 The look on my face watching every recent election from the #VoiceToParliament to #QLD State to #USA:

Really wanna turn #BlueSky into a place where we share music and connect with #singers and #Choirs! This is probably one of my most performed pieces around the world, Do Not Stand At My Grave, performed beautifully by the National Youth Choir of Australia 🙏💖 #Music #Scores

There’s no #ChoralMusic feed on @bsky.app and I’m keen to try and create it. I’d like to unite choirs and singers around the world 🙏💖 How do I do this #BlueSky people?

So if I may introduce myself as a newbie here on #BlueSky, I write music, including in a bunch of episodes of #Bluey, and a lot of stuff for choir including a big show at the #SydneyOperaHouse about hate crimes against queer people and #LGBTQ rights in Australia 🙏🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

And a reminder: you are more susceptible to disinformation if you’re angry or you’re frightened. Enraging you is crucial to manipulating you to share, like and align with things you otherwise wouldn’t.

Never forget this: The GOP’s nonsensical culture war is meant to distract you from corporate corruption, worker oppression, and staggering wealth inequality.
