I’m 5 weeks pregnant. I have #endometriosis so it’s a 🎄miracle. Yes it’s early but I don’t want to hide or lie, as is expected during the first 12 weeks. This #pregnancy is legit whether I miscarry or not. Removing the shame around #pregnancyloss starts ⬇️ @EndometriosisAu

Well that’s annoying, I was hoping you’d all moved on so I could too 😂 Noted re: Bluesky and @LilVee336 I’m back part time producing for Jo Trilling on Thurs and Fri, learning the craft from the other side of the glass. It’s made for a nice change of pace but I miss you all!

Random question — if you see this post of mine, can you press 🧡? Not a ploy for engagement, I’m purely trying to figure out how many of you are still here Ie if I keep my account or send it to the recycling bin 📸 two stunning karrak (f) feathers found in a park near us

I couldn’t be happier that my #MRI #brain scan last Friday showed no evidence of recurrence of my #glioblastoma! It’s now 13.5 months since my seizure in Poland when it showed up. I cannot thank the entire neuro-oncology team enough for looking after me & supporting me so well

You can see it on every street in Perth too. Dead, crispy trees from our run of severe heatwaves. A friend said to me yesterday “I love this weather!” but a run of 30 (including 35 on Thursday) at this time of year is not normal, right @BOM_WA?
🚨WHAT CLIMATE CHANGE LOOKS LIKE🚨 It's been the driest 6 months EVER in South West WA Images by @PiersVerstegen at Mt Mehniup where used to have one of the highest rainfalls Majority of vegetation is now dead on north facing side, including mature trees there for many decades

So that’s a yes. Awesome, thanks @Matt_Tinney 💪🏼
43 degrees! That's the forecast top in Perth again today. But is climate change to blame for Perth's heatwaves. Hear from senior meteorologist Miriam Bradbury @BOM_au. @sunriseon7

You’re clearly a great guy @Matt_Tinney but I’m sick of the happy beach images accompanying these temperatures. Birds are dying in my yard and power bills are sending families broke. Please challenge the norm when it comes to this kind of reporting. 43 isn’t ok.
