There’ve been many surprises while riding the waves of grief since Edie passed but vacuuming the living room rug just made me sob and laugh at what causes the waves to crash.

For anyone in Naarm/Melbourne (or beyond) in the mood for a folk-horror-esque ramble through the bush, my PhD artwork, Solitary Soundwalks ‘Wilson Reserve’ is now available to buy through my website ( www.japinney.com ) or at Ladyhawke - the bookshop in Ivanhoe. Remember, you walk at your own risk.

Built in the 13th century. So that mosque stood for 800 years with every sort of person from every place and every religion in the world passing through Gaza century after century, only for it to be blown up by some shithead loser sitting behind a computer that we probably paid for.

If this is my legacy (getting pensioners free money) then I am happy as fuck!

I miss her so much. It’s astounding how effortlessly she filled my life and how so many moments throughout the day are left feeling empty now she’s gone. New little reminders crushing me throughout every day since.

Anyone in the Darebin Parklands region got a spare few minutes and a pressure washer? Some area pests have graffitied The Nest with nazi shit (not sharing a photo), which someone else has valiantly tried to cover up. I'd say the position of Nest near the Healing Trail is intentional.

This is the most egregiously stupid hubris filled idea I’ve ever heard and I hope it never goes ahead!

maybe we shouldn't run "neo-nazi does [anything]" as the top story on national news websites unless it's meaningfully newsworthy/impactful? these are people who want to exterminate australians + are actively trying to get attention. we can't treat them as normal political players

Got her locked and loaded

Israel strikes yet another Gaza hospital Yet again If you can chip in: Medical Campaign x Sameer Project

$2 and a share is easy for most of us too!

If you are at Bendigo Writers Festival and can't see me there because I pulled out due to censorship concerns AND you want to buy my books, please visit Bookish in Bendigo. Bookshops are good people.

“We’re here to talk about A levels” “Free Palestine the BBC is complicit” 💀💀

External journalists aren’t allowed into Gaza and the entire @aljazeera.com team in Gaza has been murdered by Israel with the killing of Anas al-Sharif, Mohammed Qreiqeh, Ibrahim Zaher and Mohammed Noufal today Every day they try to hide the truth of the genocide they are committing

Emptying my dog’s last big bag of the food she hates (only wild boar prime logs for the dying princess now) hit me like a ton of bricks. So many layers of weird grief compounding the constant grief of knowing how lucky she and I are and how everyone should be so lucky.

A very lovely series of kind posts!!

The idea that we shouldn't say actors who choose to work on Harry Potter projects are transphobic is splitting hairs. Maybe they don't THINK they're transphobic, but they're aligning themselves with a woman dedicated to gleefully hurting trans people and selling their soul in favour of a payday.

My most full-chested solidarity with those marching for Palestinian freedom, resistance and self-determination in Gadigal & Naarm today. The bleating of Liberals, cops and our may-as-well-be-Liberal Premier about "inconvenience" will be remembered as tacit support for Israel's genocidal occupation.

"Pre-exisiting conditions" is a framework put on disabled people to diminish our deaths. That's why some disabled people are very mad about the NYT note, and we were also very mad at the CDC under Biden saying only people with four or more pre-exisiting conditions are dying from Covid.

wapo.st/3IRLZn6 No way should they have this behind a paywall, but here's a gift link. These numbers are still impossible to comprehend.

the real Hottest 100? 100 girls reading this ❤️

The perks of having an internet archivist share half of the half of a brain you have left 🙂‍↔️ @clembastow.bsky.social

‘You’re The Voice’ only at #15? DEFUND THE ABC. #Hottest100

Remembering just how long and how much of a hater I’ve always been listening to most of the below 30 hottest 100 countdown. A memory lane of beige and ‘ok, sure’ emerging in many of these top spots.

Remembering what an absolute spunk Bob Franklin was back in the day.

this is one of the worst crimes in human history and the entire global north and all of us in it share the responsibility

Can you help my friend @soma-eslam.bsky.social raise the funds to support her family and to replace her camera, which was lost in Israel's war on Gaza? chuffed.org/project/1282...

regular reminder that zionism 🤝white supremacy. theklaxon.com.au/jillian-sega...

Segal's anti-semitism "review" can, and should, be ignored. There has been a longstanding need for better government work on anti-racism, but this review is compromised by the fact its first recommendation suggests codifying criticism of Israel as anti-semitism. Everything else stems from that.

what, no popcorn provided for the study participants?

I HAVE SUBMITTED MY DISSERTATION!!!

A truly disgusting, filthy, trashy evening with Divine’s best performance and discovering Bosco has been modelling herself on Mink Stole’s appearance in Polyester. A never ending gift to be alive at the same time as John Waters!!!

Thankful for these clowns 🙂‍↔️

For real, never get access to your old Facebook account and look through old messages/friends if you want to maintain a stable sense of self 🙂‍↔️

Thrilled that this is becoming a special!!!!!

Babe, wake up: SBS just dropped a new neoliberal media euphemism for “killed by the IDF”

Israeli officers and soldiers have revealed they’ve been ordered to deliberately shoot at unarmed Palestinians trying to get aid. That’s in Israeli newspaper Haaretz. Israel is deliberately massacring civilians it’s deliberately starving. There are few crimes more depraved.

I may or may not be one day’s work away from being finished with my dissertation and able to start the submission process (ie getting it signed off by university admin and my supervisor and then if they’ve got no issues, figuring out how and where to submit it online). 😐

Processing the horrors by dissociating while solving cryptograms is this years hottest trend.

it’s even more demoralizing when the history you’re repeating is history you were around for the first time

A ‘how it started/how it’s going’ phd update. (This penultimate draft print out is very heavy lol). 2016-2025 damn.

Listen I know you guys don’t need to hear it from me but America fucking sucks ass

There are tickets for this tomorrow night and if you aren’t a complete fool you’ll snap them up. @electrolemon.bsky.social is simply one of the funniest people on the planet.

if i can be y’all’s dad for a second: one of the most important things I’ve learned is that acquiring a skill is literally uncomfortable that awful moment where you feel confused and stupid and embarrassed? it means you’re about to learn something. and it’s *mandatory* if you want to get better

A Jabalia data centre has been bombed and Internet has been cut off again. You know the drill!! @sfdirewolf.bsky.social @thellpsx.bsky.social bit.ly/eSimsRUs #ConnectingGaza
