All global evidence point to 4 main causes of male violence a/g women Rigid gender roles When men have high levels of control over women’s decision - making Male peer groups & culture that reinforce control & aggression Men excusing male violence This is why it’s a mens issue
Starting a book club specifically to read Scott Morrison’s “Plans for Your Good: A Prime Minister's Testimony of God's Faithfulness”
No of Aussies killed by terrorism inside Australia since 1916 16 Number of Aussie women killed by male violence since 2014 642 So I ask you what’s the biggest threat? If you’re tired of me tweeting about this imagine being a woman living with actual threat of this everyday
Words previously unknown to me, courtesy of Justice Lee: brume, osculation, picayune, saw (as proverb meaning an old saying or conventional wisdom), a fortiori (Could work out most of them, but imo 'kiss' does the job quite well. Do love to see language relished though.)
Believe women has never been about setting aside the presumption of innocence. It’s about not presuming all women lie, taking allegations seriously and investigating them properly. The idea that is some kind of dangerous, leftist agenda is total bullshit. #believewomen
The fear & trepidation felt earlier today by women all over Australia is now pure emotion. Thank you Brittany Higgins. You are courage personified & so many of us stand with you. And thank you Justice Lee for not diminishing women’s lived experiences or the effects of trauma.
In 2008 I moved from Berlin to Melbourne. At the time both cities had the same population but Melbourne was seven times larger. Urban sprawl in action. When Aussies wonder why maintaining our road, rail, power, and sewage infrastructure is so expensive I show them this map...
@Theholisticpsyc Conversations are hard and a bit scary when you’re unsure how much to share with others who have buried their pain and created myths about the past in order to cope. Speaking truth can evoke reactions of anger from those with such pain. It’s a delicate process.
Generational trauma shows up loudest in your family’s romantic relationships. Break the cycle.
This week, @shawliterary turns 4! As ever, thanks for your support whenever I occasionally get excited about a book & bombard you somewhat! But it is so so satisfying, making a little contribution to literary culture from time to time with work from the oft-overlooked Antipodes!
@TudorChick1501 It’s like watching the crown unfold in real time. I need to know how this season ends & does the monarchy fall?
This is a beautiful example of why we need representative surveys in planning and development rather than relying on the (extremely demographically homogenous) cohort who have the time and resources to go to things like public meetings or make submissions.
Instead of buying random, expensive things that catch your eye, or reducing everything into some simplified idea about "quality," think of design languages, cultural history, and how to put together outfits that signal what you're trying to signal.
Do you reckon the ABC knows that most of us who used to default to them for our news updates now default to @guardian because it’s truthful and balanced and is doing the job we used to expect of the ABC but just got sick of the nonsense and Murdochs they serve us every day.
Whether it’s by bringing back the SEC and helping Victorians get off expensive gas with our VEU discounts and our Solar Homes program, we’re doing the real work to help Victorians slash their power bills.
Two picks for me: 1) Nelson Provincial Building, the preeminent physical example (alongside Canterbury's surviving chambers) of the stature anticipated for provincial govt in NZ 2) Melbourne Fish Market, Flinders St, which I wish had survived for reinvention as a cool urban space
What's one building, structure or location that has been demolished that you wish was still around to see, walk through, explore or practice photography in once again? For me, its the Conner Stamping Plant in Detroit, Michigan. You?
It’s like a magnificent painting in the sky.
I will be joining the office of @AlboMP I want to say farewell by thanking Australians who support good journalism. It has never been more necessary. Thank you for your company. It's been a honour.
