So the account Madre Swift Justice @JayStill4 copied this photo of mine and posted it without attribution. They have now blocked me. Very rude. It takes me a lot of time, effort and money to get these shots and I don't think it's much to ask to be acknowledged.

Mr Dutton has chosen Callide in Central Queensland as one of his putative 'locations' to build Federal Government nuclear power stations. Since I personally designed a number of the surface facilities on this site, thought you might be interested in a run-through.

On the phone trying to talk my 81 yr old technically challenged mum through reconnecting her iPad to the internet & then to FaceTime her. She is insistent she hasn’t got a WiFi symbol or a camera icon. Losing the will to live when she says I’ve got a fan and a hot water bottle 🤣

I had hoped I wouldn't need to post this. I don't invade my sister's privacy lightly, but I have no choice. This is the only thing I can do to help her. A 🧵 Clare has Rett syndrome. She can't communicate and needs 24-hour care. Her disability means her breathing's compromised.

Last Monday was the 1 year anniversary since my #glioblastoma presented when I had a seizure in the mountains in #Poland on 20th May 2023! It hasn't been all plain sailing but I’m pleased that things are still going well. I feel in good form physically and mentally and the recent

Another photo taken at some ungodly hour. (While my son has just taken up a position on a hill on the other side of the world to see if he can see it too!) Blanchetown, South Australia. #AuroraAustralis #aurora

This morning I lay witness to perhaps 20% of the entire Swift Parrot population. Thrill and despair in the same scene. To think they could be extinct within a decade. We need to do more. Their value is greater than that of harvested timber.

Hey guess what? I just checked with @SandyHorne61 & she still hasn’t been contacted by anyone at @x @support @xeng about getting her account reinstated. Her last appeal didn’t even generate an automated response. What’s going on @elonmusk?
It’s kind of ironic that @elonmusk is taking a stand for “free speech” saying that this platform should be able to show a video of a priest being stabbed but this very same platform suspended @SandyHorne61 for reporting a fake copy of her account. Go figure 🤷🏻♀️

Fantastic news!!!!!! Amazingly, my latest MRI brain scan shows no recurrence 10 months since my #glioblastoma presented with a seizure in #Poland. Median time to recurrence is 6 months. I’m extremely hopeful that the novel #neoadjuvant combination #immunotherapy I’ve had &
