my favourite azalea is in full bloom - it smells amazing as well. wish i knew which type it was, would love to plant it everywhere #gardeningwithsaurus

Not long until official publication day! There's a Prawn in Parliament House! As told by A Crabb and illustrated by F Onthemoon - pre order yours today! www.allenandunwin.com/browse/book/...

Justice Rangiah in his own words in Lattouf v ABC penalty decision. The broadcaster has been ordered to pay $150,000. I was previously awarded $70,000 for hurt and distress. ABC has spent in excess of $2 million on legal fees. The real cost to Aunty is immeasurable.

trying to get some nice photos of this very exciting new book and do you reckon this clown would cooperate 😤

labradors gonna labrador

none of this anti-science nonsense is remotely funny except perhaps for this bit

also how the fuck did the uk recognise the state of palestine today when it’s currently illegal to even use the word palestine there

was anyone else expecting ch*rl*e k*rk to rise from the dead on stage today or was that just me

next time i think inlay is a good idea can someone please kick me in the face #pottersaurus #pottery #ceramics #heysaurus

#Dailyglimmer Out walking and needed seek shelter when hit by a rare thunderstorm over the Derwent Estuary, Nipaluna . Disappeared as fast as it arrived

tiny new friend at the dog park - nano is 18 years old 🥹

i’m back in Big Bowl Town at the studio and i’m even going to DECORATE them *gasp* who is she!! #pottersaurus #ceramics #heysaurus #pottery

@firstdogonthemoon.bsky.social Renewing our pilgrimage north in Queensland and we are re-appreciating the Casso-wary signage at Etty Bay.

seeing mainstream media outlets breathlessly reporting the UN finding that Israel is committing genocide when they have previously been seemingly unable to report anything other than israeli and zionist propaganda lines is making me feel a bit ill today

Things you can’t say in Australian media or large cultural institutions:

this is one of the largest Lynceus clam shrimp I've ever seen. observe her powerful and round body

guess which dog just ate something they shouldn’t have 🤔

we were searching for oyster shells again at the beach yesterday - look how long this little slug goes under the water for now!!

long time no see!!!! #margaret

remember the little dog who was terrified of towels and blankets touching her?? now she comes and asks for more towel drying time after we get home from the beach 🥹💕 #adventuredoodle

“Five stewards had placed bets while employed at the now-dissolved Office of Racing Integrity…” Never change, Tasmania.

Look, I'm not saying this book is my magnus opium, or even my magnum opus, but it might be of interests to lovers of footy, Footscray and history. 'Bulldogs Through and Through' is nearly sold out at the club, and numbers are being crunched to see if there'll be a reprint. GET IT WHILE YOU CAN!

Daphne says hi

good afternoon

One of the reasons I don’t buy the “financial decision” line from MUP is that I’m a Meanjin subscriber, someone (ostensibly) in a position to add a donation to my subscription, and I wasn’t informed about these apparent dire straits. Who cancels the whole thing before pulling the fund-raising lever?

Huon Aquaculture reported four dolphin deaths at salmon farms in the first half of 2025, Tasmanian government data reveals Seven dolphins died in salmon leases in the last two years, with the seal death toll increasing to 108 since 2018. tasmanianinquirer.com.au/news/huon-aq...

Josh, from the dominant "left" faction of the "progressive" Labor party, vows to oppose any government movement to the left on salmon, forestry or greyhound racing. #politas

missed this 🥲

local facebook group having another totally normal one

it’s not quite the same but we’ll give it a go

Lmao at this open letter to the Unimelb VC proposing she pay for Meanjin with a 10% salary sacrifice that would still leave her better paid than the VC of the University of Cambridge It was my joy to sign, & I recommend doing so to all in the world of arts & letters

Good morning

oh yep that’s snow. wish it was cold and dry enough for it to settle!!

Meanjin has (had 😭) two - TWO - part time staff members. I'd be willing to bet my dinner that the cost of supporting Meanjin is less than what a single top 15 executive at Uni Melb makes in a year

one whole month in a house with no dog hair and now i’m back and hooboy my ALLERGIES

What’s the real reason it’s being shut down? It sure ain’t a couple of hundred thousand dollars. Did the university council not like what it had been publishing, per chance? This was one of the handful of publications in Aus that published Randa Abdel-Fattah or Max Kaiser.

how good is my new tom o’hern shirt!!!

sound on for doodle snorgles

good morning this is my view right now

it is a particular sort of hell when a post on here gets popular with americans

final flight home!! row to myself and it’s a seemingly quite new 737-800 with cute winglets

im using the timeshifter app to try to defeat the jet lag and on the way there it definitely worked but it does mean those long flights which are already such bizarre liminal spaces become really quite wacky

thought I was doing okay travel wise, but now I’m realising I might actually just be delirious?

I know I’m in the airport but $19 for salmon bagel and $18 for a falafel wrap is actually demented

was just waiting in line for food at melb airport next to some cops and i said hey so what’s the go with the nazis and he says oh yeah i was actually working sunday and it was terrible, the nazis are so bad someone really needs to do something about you YOU ARE LITERALLY THE COPS (ACAB)

just had my last baguette for the trip and it was awful, one last fuck you from france
