A lighthearted @abcnews_au piece after so much heaviness in the last 6 years which helps explain why I’ve stepped back from social media to recalibrate my mental health and build a relationship with my new body. Thank you @danjohnson1979

A bit late, as I rarely visit X these days, but thanks for sharing! Rollo - “Big Bad Brenton the Bull Buggering, Bile Belching, Bass Banging, Baby Eating Bastard from Brisbane”, as he insisted he was for this Time Off yarn - told a great yarn, as did Fred, who'll be sorely missed

Incredibly sad to wake up to news that Shane MacGowan is no longer with us. He was a one-of-a-kind poet, performer and human. I interviewed him a few years ago & it remains a high point of my career. Sending love to @Victoriamary, family, friends & everyone who loved him.

Terribly sad news to wake up to. There was so much more depth and substance to Sinead O'Connor than her - admittedly brilliant - rendition of a song penned by Prince. Listening to her aptly named 2000 album Faith and Courage on this morning's walk. https://t.co/yLAAg5rn3k

[Admin] Hi. Long time, no speak. There's a housing crisis w 65+ residents going to be evicted THIS FRIDAY from shelter in Spring Hill. They need 100s of tents, tarps, sleeping bags. Drop off: East Brisbane Free Shop front door (not donation shop itself)

A backpacker hostel in Brisbane CBD started taking in homeless people during the pandemic, becoming a community hub for people on the brink. Now that is at risk.

Whoa (-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)!
Things you only discover when reading someone's obituary. Procol Harum lyricist Keith Reid has died, and I have discovered the man who wrote the immortal lyrics for "A Whiter Shade of Pale" also wrote the lyrics for John Farnham's "You're the Voice".
