Some Western Australian wildflowers to brighten your day

This is such an insightful lecture. I really recommend it for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the current state in the US and world. ABC is the Australian Broadcasting Commission. www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

He's all about America first, accepting a foreign plane over made in America.

What a wonderful result! I'm so excited to experience the benefit to our society of having these new young leaders involved in an active democracy.

This is so inspiring! The story of the woman who won the seat of Dixon from Dutton.

#auspol I found it interesting that the people losing seats in the Australian election are older white men. The people who won seats are a diverse group of younger people: many more women and people reflecting our cultural diversity.

My faith is restored. We have rejected oligarchy and the culture wards. Democracy and decency are alive and well in Australia 🇦🇺.

Still an hour of voting to go here. #auspol

##auspol Shirt my husband chose to wear voting.

My husband has dug out an old favourite to wear to the polling booth today. Now, to see if the people handing out flyers for the Libs (conservative party) have a sense of humour 😀

Come on, Australia!! Let's do what Canada just did on Saturday. Please, no Temu Trump here.

Hooray 🇨🇦. Resounding win for democracy!!

The latest cost of eggs where we shop. The prices are in Aussie dollars. When converted to US$, the cheapest is over $12, and the most expensive carton of 12 is around $20 (jumbo sized). We are in Western Australia, where grocery prices are higher than some other states.

I think something that the US needs to reflect seriously on is this idea of dominance over the rest of the world. Why do you need to be dominant?

Just put it on at home and touch it up in the bathroom, Pete, like every other person who wears makeup at work.

I feel seen! We are managing a growing financial and practical demands of caring for elderly parents. At the same time, we are supporting young adult children to fledge. I know I'm not alone.

Orale Resisters Senators Padilla and Schiffs Your constituent Andry Hernandez Romero, the Gay makeup artist From San Diego is being tortured in an El Salvador! Free him! Please call our California Senators ! Please repost ! @alexpadilla823.bsky.social @schiff.senate.gov #Andy #AndryRomero #lgtbq

I'm so sorry to say that the US government is the epitome of evil. May we all guard against electing the same 💙.

Just know everyone is safe here and I do mean everyone🩷💛💚❤️

AND REMOVE, ASAP!!

The protests are not for Trump to see, they are so you can all see each other and grow. It's not the protest itself that tyrants are afraid of, but the networks and community you can grow from them. Your strength is your unity and that's why the enemy thrives by demoralizing and dividing you. #3E

Please Consider Making a Donation to #Ukrainian Charity! They are fighting for their lives, their families and democracy!!

Where's Melania?

I think the time to impeach is now. Before he declares martial law.

Happy Caturday night from down under and to the West

Happy Caturday Bluesky

Lyrics from a song I heard this morning by Theet, Falling Out of Touch says a lot about how we got here, "We only practice general hate and specific love."

I have replaced Audible with @libro.fm. Now I'm listening to The Sirens by Emilia Hart on my drive to and from work. It has me hooked straight from the start. She wrote Weyward and this is her new release. Libo.fm support Indie book stores around the world. You get to choose which one.

Thank you for the follows. Hello 👋

Happy #Caturday all 💙. This is Henry "helping" my partner fold the washing.

Love will always be more resplendent than the darkness of hate can conquer.
