Mona: a museum, or something. In Tasmania, or somewhere. Catch the ferry. Drink beer. Eat cheese. Talk crap about art. You'll love it.

An exhilarating visit by @drdianachester at @Ant_Partnership draws to an end. Final planning over a coffee in #nipaluna/#Hobart including followups during 2023. It was exhausting but also great fun. Thank you, Diana.

Yesterday, over 100 people gathered at the Russian consulate in Woolahra (Sydney) to *support* Putin’s mass atrocities in #Ukraine. Many of them had decorated their cars with Z signs. Here’s a thread on the meaning behind this symbol - this is a very serious matter
Let's discuss what's happening in Russia. To put it simply, it's going full fascist. Authorities launched a propaganda campaign to gain popular support for their invasion of Ukraine and they're getting lots of it. You can see "Z" on these guys' clothes. What does it mean? 🧵

Putin’s #nuclearwar threats should be taken seriously. But: there’s a #nuclear catastrophe with a much higher probability waiting to happen. The #Energodar nuclear power plant is on fire. We know how this ends. Remember #Chornobyl? #StopPutin now before it’s too late. #QandA
Russia has ignored warnings about a nuclear catastrophe affecting the whole region and has launched an attack near the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant. Several buildings at the plant are now on fire. Livestream:

#Sydney: third day of anti-war rally about to start. More and more Russians can be seen protesting Kremlin’s #occupation regime. We’re also seeing orchestrated attempts to undermine those efforts. If you’re Russian and do not support this war, now is the time to #StandWithUkraine
