I chat here with Anna Marsden, managing director of the Great Barrier Reef Foundation, about the controversial 2018 funding from the Turnbull government and where it’s all gone, as the reef recovers from its fifth bleaching event since 2016.

‘Are we playing God?’ Researchers fast-track evolution in fight to save the reef In this story I look at all the science behind trying to help the reef - or parts of it - through a warming world.

As a kid we often drove past Dame Nellie’s house behind the huge hedge at Coldstream. It was a thrill to go beyond the hedge for this story about the amazing house Melba left behind and efforts to finally catalogue everything in it. @GoodWeekendMag

My amazing colleagues explaining the kinds of things they do when not on strike trying to save journalism. To add mine: yesterday I would have been in court to see the sentencing of Sakina Muhammad Jan for a Good Weekend feature on forced marriage.

https://t.co/3bFB33BIDi ANALYSIS: My new column for @abcnews "The Australian media industry tells a long and continuing story ... of mediocre men whose shamelessness extends their professional life expectancies well beyond a real meritocracy would permit."

A little story about the things that blindside a marriage in midlife. With thanks to @RelAustNSW’s Elisabeth Shaw and @katetimestylers

New report by me and @jacqui_tassone presents findings from my review of AFP/ACT Policing response to sexual offences. The review found that not only are sexual offences rarely charged, sexual offences are rarely investigated. More here: https://t.co/iriev0KYBf

Justice Lee mentioned several issues we wrote about in this GW piece: a) alcohol's role in consent and memory b) trauma's role in how victims present, and c) "appropriate" responses to an assault given things like the freeze response.

Well done @mbachelard !

Thanks to @SteveRoberts_ from Monash. Also to @zacseidler - I had more of you in the story but had to cut out! And Jamin Heppell, one of the founders of @themancave_aus who is now doing amazing work with Jen Ziegner and their business Mountains and Marathons

As part of this profile of @hunterjohnson91 I went to witness @themancave_aus day-long workshop with teenage boys. It was so moving and one of the few times in the last year that I felt some hope for the future

Agree with this. Victoria simply can’t afford the Suburban Rail Loop. Other, more worthy, priorities will suffer. @JacintaAllanMP this is one of your projects, yes, but don’t let it be your legacy. Your legacy lies somewhere else, not in this folly.

Greta Gerwig made a film that was critically acclaimed, culturally impactful, hilarious, unique, visually exceptional, perfectly cast and acted, left people laughing, crying and thinking AND made a billion dollars at the box office. But no Best Director nom?! #Barbie #Oscars2024

Agree. Shame on them for not nominating Gerwig!

A piece I wrote about an unsung champion of Australian tennis. The world according to ‘Crumpy’

Tim was brilliant with numbers on election night. A lovely, thoughtful person with a twinkle in his eye. Always encouraging.
