Fossil fuel subsidies are growing faster than the NDIS and benefit far fewer people

I call on State Govt to mark IWD by committing to a comprehensive Budget gender impact statement detailing how any cuts to services, funding or jobs have been assessed for potential impacts on women/girls/gender-diverse Tasmanians. Read my full media release #politas megwebb.com.au/media-releas...

I'm getting married in two weeks. AaAaAaAaAaAaA

The curse of chicken-keeping. Started with 12 eggs, 9 hatched, only 3 girls. And all the pretty-coloured ones are boys. Anyone (in Tas) want a cute Splash, Blue, or Gold-Laced rooster in a few months to save them from Freezer Camp? 😅 #BackyardChickens #Roosters

It's our turn to give back to someone who's been fighting for others for decades. Donate if you can?

This... Honestly makes perfect sense. Can they check the daycare and kindy teachers next?

Couldn't get the rust stains off my hoodie. Now it has clouds instead. #CraftSky #Embroidery

Tasmanian disability peeps! Y'all should apply for the new Disability Inclusion Advisory Council. Disability Voices Tas can help you think about/prepare your application. www.facebook.com/share/1NHcYH...

Didn't get as much done today as I'd hoped. But it was for a good reason. #Cat #CatsOfBlueSky #MaineCoon

Fresh babies today. I like this particular mama hen. She does a good job, and she generally teaches her babies that I'm a source of treats rather than a threat. #Chickens #BackyardChickens #ChickensOfBlueSky

Living dangerously. #Cat #MaineCoon #CatsOfBlueSky #MurderEyes

"Processing" young roosters is the unfortunately necessary counterpart to the cute fun part of hatching/raising chicks. At first I found it a bit distressing. Nowadays it's a weird kind of meditation for me on the nature of mortality and humans-as-animals. #Chickens #BackyardChickens

Our rooster is a handsome fella. That's it. That's the post. #Chickens #BackyardChickens #Rooster

The joys of being a burnt-out neurodivergent: it's possible to be craving social interaction, and entirely unable to tolerate social interaction, at the same time

Today I learned: Japanese airport security requires that I carry a doctor's letter prescribing the tin of baked beans I travel with (my emergency Coeliac-safe backup meal). I did not have one, funnily enough. Emergency beans promptly confiscated as contraband. #Coeliac #Tokyo #TravelSkeets

Vancouver feels a lot like someone took Melbourne and plonked it onto the Hobart landscape. #Vancouver #TravelSkeets

Achievement unlocked: saw a moose (from the nice, safe vantage of a train window) #Jasper #TravelSkeets

We met some of the locals yesterday. #Elk #Banff #TravelSkeets

Hmmm #LakeLouise #TravelSkeets

Absolutely do not rate the toilets over here. Shape of the pan? Wrong. Flush? Anemic, ineffective. Stalls? UNCOMFORTABLY exposed. You're heavily incentivised to be on your phone because otherwise you might make eye contact with someone. And dudes CHAT in there. PLS NO. #Canada #TravelSkeets

Merry Crimble, everyone #Banff #TravelSkeets

Hello from Skyrim, apparently #Canmore #TravelSkeets

Questionable branding decisions, Calgary edition: clothes store named "vivid beige" #Calgary #TravelSkeets

Made it to Vancouver. A moderately harrowing 22 hour transit in which the airlines had no gluten free food for me and zero sleep was had. Pro tip: catch a plane across the international date line, and from the summer hemisphere to winter, for your own personal groundhog day effect.

We haven't even left yet and I've already got separation anxiety. How am I going to cope without my Emotional Support Floof for 3+ weeks?? #MaineCoon #CatsOfBluesky

Can we really say we have universal healthcare if people can't afford the care/support they need to access *literal organ transplants*?? Please donate to help Ana if you can! #Disability #MutualAid gofund.me/6812af597

Found a new friend at a local market today (not my work- credit to artist Rosemary Adler) #Birb #Borb #NeedleFelting

Dogs gonna dog.

Good words, Ash.

My colleague yesterday: "Do you think it will rain much more this week?" Rain, overnight: hold my beer

Very wholesome Saturday. Community crop swap, bit of baking, bit of gardening, DnD with local friends, and an evening around a firepit making biochar. Good times :3

Have you ever thought about how dramatic whales are when they breach? And I don't mean "ooh wow how majestic." I mean that they all look like they're conducting an orchestra or singing opera or something. Those MFers are divas. #SillyCreatures #Scribbles #TraditionalArt

Nipaluna crew! Come visit me during my shift at the Artfully Queer exhibition today, in the Long Gallery at Salamanca Arts Centre :)

Old lady cuddles #CatsOfBlueSky #MaineCoon

I can deal with a sudden change of plans. But then changing the change of plans back to the unchanged version REALLY throws me. #Dysregulated #Doodles #Drawing #TraditionalArt

I'd like to order one basket of floof, please. Lightly toasted. #MaineCoon #CatsOfBluesky

🥹🥹🥹 Sweet sweet external validationnnnn (I am legitimately proud of myself for this and the miniature version of my therapist in my head is telling me to own it) #ArtfullyQueer

I heard from the same friend that they secretly use Amazon offices too, right under Jeff's nose. Better raid them all just in case

😳

Exclusive* early drop for the BSky crew of my Artfully Queer 2025 entry. Title "I Wish You'd Let Us Love You" or, alternatively, "An Honest Portrait of Gerrit Kruijver". #TraditionalArt #ColourPencil #BlueSkyArtShow #ArtfullyQueer *lol

Our existence threatens the lies people are telling themselves. We've done the hard work to shatter our own illusions, and they're too scared to do that for themselves. That's why they get so angry. #TransLiberation

This is atrocious, but I wish it were unusual. The one time I needed airport mobility assistance, they put me on the baggage cart with the suitcases. Literal objectification. #DisabilityRights #NotLuggage

When I have conversations with people about issues like this, I ask this question: Would you rather that A) everyone who genuinely needs support gets it - but a few people take advantage, or B) punish a few bad people - at the cost of lots of people with genuine need having to go without?

I can't come up with a satisfactory concept for my Artfully Queer entry this year so I guess I'll just sit here and be cat furniture instead of drawing #CatsOfBluesky #MaineCoon #DrawingBlock

Today's highlight: watching several pairs of courting currawongs doing high-speed aerobatics. Spring has sprung, according to the birds.

I'm an atheist, hard materialist, and I try not to indulge in magical/superstitious thinking. But y'all, sometimes the universe does NOT make that easy.

This new project has strong potential to be scaled up and delivered in other land and cultural heritage management contexts.
