https://t.co/yqYTEb6I8F Australia CANNOT AFFORD to keep pretending the US administration is trustworthy or has a shred of integrity. Get out of #AUKUS now. Build trade, educational opportunities, mutuality within our region . Stop exploiting overseas students. Let's build #peace.

Niche question for only a few people who I know irl here. Handed out some new textbooks today. How good is the smell of a new book? Of which former student am I thinking? 😝

Not sure what is more concerning, President Biff or the excited followers?

Racist abuse? Physical contact? Response to decisions I disagree with? Respect of elders? And when my expectation of their behaviour is transgressed, I then cite how someone from the opposing side has transgressed a universal expectation?! A little more humility is needed.

I love cricket, always have, but the ugly sides shown by both fans on X are hideous. There are convenient self imposed limits of acceptable behaviour, and those limits are expected only of others. Cue moral outrage when they are crossed. What are the universal standards?

Played around with @ChatGPTapp this afternoon and the camera feature is ridiculous. I pointed at a magazine article in French and asked a few questions in French (all using camera and mic), then asked if it could summarise the key points in English too - perfect translation.

Might sounds bad out of context, but I love poison. Specifically herbicide. It’s so cool slowly watching your chosen plants wilt and die whilst the ones you want thrive.

Mr5 casually turned to me whilst watching Mr12 play footy and pointed at my seat ‘Caribee’. “That’s a digraph I know. We haven’t learnt it at school, we’ve learnt ck and …” Nice to hear.

Just looking at real estate because I find it interesting. A castle in France with 1600m2 living space, plus villas to accommodate up to 50 people, externally well restored, with some work int. on 10ha around $5.2m. A 4BR lux house in Sydney near Manly, asking for $7.5m. Wtf?

It would be so much more compelling to be able to be open and say ‘it’s critically important to fix funding, so I’m/we are …..’ and then list openly what you do. Is it just the way media covers news that omits actions, or is it our bureaucratic era of pretty words to appease us?

It’s so disheartening hearing the people whose job it is to fix funding for public schools lament that it needs to be fixed. I don’t care about your words, I care about your actions. Don’t lament it, just fix it.
