heya western Sydney folks, numbers are low for this film screening next Saturday at Windsor please come along if you can 🇵🇸 www.stickytickets.com.au/3qqjy9/until...

There's a specific level of purgatory for drivers who don't follow tight on an advanced green

Just in time for some weekend listening: we ask Mirandi Riwoe for her spiciest takes about Benedict, Sophie, and the walk of shame. #wwddpod #Bridgerton

The Australian Labor Party is really going to take $160 million dollars from people on need rather than tax a single corporation or billionaire.

Why do all podcasts targeted at an ADHD audience have presenters that speak so slowly?

New episode alert! With the fabulous Sharmini Kumar. Available everywhere you listen to podcasts! Discussing #Bridgerton S4E3

4pm today! Please spread this as far as you can, and pass on to anyone you can think of who was affected

sometimes being proficient in another language makes me a true menace

Just having so much fun with our #Bridgerton discussions this season

This Canada-Italy curling match is a nail-biter in the best way. So fun watching two strong teams play so well

Why *is* the Queen so cranky? We have theories.... 😉

It's just that curling is *so engaging* to watch and you don't know until you know and then you *really* know

Figure skaters should start a class action against anyone who airs slow-motion videos of their jumps and spins. They're balancing on ice knives! No one needs to see what their faces do to survive!!

Looking forward to seeing everyone who signed the Meanjin petition getting their new subscriptions!

Completely unexpected and yet so right

Of COURSE the French team skated to The Whale soundtrack - nothing like a shared interest in belittling lived experience and being cruel!

Just got a free airplane upgrade so the six years of agony, thousands of tears, regular questioning of my sanity, and multiple people that had to talk me off a ledge to get my PhD was totally worth it

This is the *best* series. Snap it up!

Absolutely nothing worse than those dead two hours between finishing packing and having to leave for the airport

Canadians just shouldn't allow American skaters to use Canadian music until the country sorts itself out. You want KD Lang? Not until you've passed all LGBTQIA+ protections into law, fuckers.

Your #Bridgerton friends are back for season 7 (!!) of What Would Danbury Do? . With special guest host @jodimca.bsky.social, we waltz with episode one of season four of Bridgerton, Benedict, Sophie and the lady in silver. On all your favourite podcast providers or bridgertonpod.com #wwddpod

Simply love talking to my smart friends and recording it for others so they can hear how smart my friends are 💙

Here is my secret shame: I love fantasy novels and I have never once referred to any map in the front of any novel ever.

There's no cheeses for us meeces

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites. The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

Choose compassion and love today. And please, I beg of you, stay away from AI for your news.

Just horrifying

The club scene in ep4 of Heated Rivalry is pure art, the best representation of conflict ever, it is perfect, a master-class, Spielberg, Scorsese take fucking notes

Got Whamageddoned vi an instagram reel, as if I needed more reasons to despise Zuckerberg

Just learned that the horse in Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter visuals is named Chardonneigh and it made my day better so I'm hoping it makes yours better too

Good thing today: every single one of my scheduled in-person things have been cancelled. Bad thing today: surprise in-person encounter with a huntsman spider in my laundry basket

This year, once again, I ask how people can post their 'best of the year' lists before they have enjoyed the prime reading time of Dec 26 - Jan 2.

Last night, I went to see Whitefella Yella Tree at UMAC and it was extraordinary. A two-person show about colonisation, told through monthly meetings over several years, it is nuanced and kind, taking familiar history and making it raw and personal and intimate. all to say go see it if you can!

Watching The Haunting of Hill House with eldest daughter and just got to 'Bent-Neck Lady' episode and she reacted *exactly* the way she was supposed to and I don't often feel like a good parent, but at this moment, I knew I'd done something really right.

Really struggling with the 'first nice weather day of spring euphoria' and the 'calm down it's still Melbourne practicality' dressing decisions

It's just that insomnia makes no sense in the current climate. If anything, the existential horror should keep me from wanting to *ever* be awake

so numb with this news www.booksandpublishing.com.au/articles/202...

Hey, I have had some questions about who is allowed to file. Here is the class certification:

Hello, I'm sorry I can't come to work today, I have to solve the mystery of the 7th covenant of good business in my Tiny Bookshop neighbourhood? I'll probably be out for at least a week *cough cough*

Also I met Sarah Maclean and held a normal person conversation, which is 100% personal growth

Hobart is really turning it on for the #RWAUS25 conference. I just opened the windows in my hotel room?!?

Publishing assistant looking after my copyedits always addresses me as Dr Cuthbert, so I told her to call me Kate and now she calls me Dr Kate 😂

Watched two movie while sewing this year's book week costume. Will now be listening to the KPop Demon Hunter soundtrack on repeat forever and also I see why the fuss over Conclave, loved watching the gossipy lil' red guys gossip

Copyedit win: they let me keep my Oxford comma

Finally getting around to watching Wolf Hall s2 with my husband, the man who, in s1, said, 'I like this Anne Boleyn character. I hope everything turns out okay for her.'

Is there a gender-neutral term for in-law? My spouse's parents, for example – parent-in-law? or siblings? or for a child's spouse – child-in-law? Someone smarter than me probably has a good solution for this?

Just got the copyedits for my book? I wasn't sure what I'd feel, having been on the other side for so long, but I'm really excited. Mind you, I haven't *opened* them yet, so it's possible that this excitement will turn into horror, defensiveness, and depression. So I guess stay tuned?

my daughter is currently studying WWI by assigning countries to Mean Girls characters: Germany - Regina George, Austro-Hungary – Gretchen Weiner, Ottoman – Karen, Italy – Regina's mom Britain – Ms Norbury, France - Damien, Russia - Janice. Kady is absolutely the US.

The kids on Tumblr know what's what
