While @ageinvestigates and team bring down Setka over underworld connections with the CFMEU, @9newsAUS tonight presents us with an exclusive on the call-up of a Wimbledon centre court line painter. First woman in the world. And she’s Australian. 😮

@deniseshrivell Good idea not to share links - it just gives them clicks and attention If people want to call out the BS, a recommended strategy is to take a screenshot, reduce contrast, and overlay bold red corrections

Finally worked out what's been bugging me about the World Cup. Sat down to write and this came pouring out in about 45min. abc.net.au/news/2023-08-2…

We'd like to thank Jonny Bairstow for reminding everyone about the dangers of stepping over the crease before you're given the green light. Check out our road safety tips ➡ police.vic.gov.au/road-safety then tag a grumpy Englishman (we'll go first @metpoliceuk)

@SharnelleVella Have had a kindle for 10 years and love it. I read each night too and so much easier to hold in bed, can adjust the font size to suit, can read without the bedside light on, battery life great, order books in advance, travel without packing a pile of books. You won’t be sorry!

I LITERALLY stopped working on my memo so I could read this indictment. I am on page 24 and JESUS LUPITA NYONG'O CHRIST. HOW this man still has the capacity to shock me after everything that's happened, i'll never know. but I am sitting here *STUNNED*.

In 2006, students from Xavier High School in NYC sent Kurt Vonnegut five letters asking the aging writer to visit their class. What he wrote back is one of the most inspiring things ever:

@NeilMcMahon Sad to hear the Oracle has left us too. It hasn’t been a great 12 months for Age sport.

@rohan_connolly Very sad. Fond memories listening to King’s tales, glass of red in hand. A kind and generous Age legend.

@shannonrwatts “Michael excelled at everything he did”. So obscene. The statement from his wife’s family though! Actually all of it is just totally incomprehensible.
