Working the horses this morning. This is Kylie Mole (Mole for short) she’s out of a mixed bred mare that we used as a kids horse by Bones (my now-gelding) I have no idea what we’ll do with Mole, although I do have a pony cart going to waste in the shed….. #agsky

Here's a good tip for the #agsky crew 👇

Obelix is a Percheron gelding who used to be a bronco branding horse. Like many grey horses he developed a growth - in his case a large tennis-ball sized tumour in his neck near his jaw & on veterinary advice he was retired. #stationlife #agsky

This is utterly absorbing - and horrifying in so far as it emphasises the absolutely hopeless (indeed, bizarrely uninterested) police & govt response to missing Indigenous men. Tim Elliott has done a great job writing & researching this. Read it. www.theage.com.au/national/dru...

We use a remote telemetry system to monitor some water points & areas of our station. Occasionally the cameras get invaded by 🕷️. #StationLife #agsky

Plibersek has been served up a diet of shit sandwiches all term, and Albanese decided to give her a side dish of roasted shit just to make sure she understood what her role is.

"Healthism" & the idea that individuals should "just do better" is exhausting. We make choices, but in context which looks different for all of us. Healthism harms through judgment, discrimination & letting politicians who actually run society outsource responsibility to individuals & businesses.
