Of course there are people coming here from underdeveloped countries worse than the U.S. Doesn’t matter. From a political standpoint all developed nations see us as moronic Christian nationals who prefer having a pathological lying reality television game show host as our leader

My troopy had a baby. (My troopy broke down near Uluru. It is in the workshop getting fixed. I hired a Suzuki Jimny.)
Suzuki Jimny (baby 4WD) parked next to it's mum (a Toyota Landcruiser Troopcarrier).

So managed to break my car to the point of needing a tow about 90 km from Uluru (this is in Outback Australia for people playing from overseas). How is your day going?

Looks like it is that time of the year I start getting sad about not being in Edinburgh for the and other festivals. I have been plenty of times but unfortunately not this year. Improv is one of my favourites. This one looks brilliant.

This is a moment for the history books… Nothing better than to be seen as a young black trans girl just trying to make a difference❤️

This is very moving. Pity he is in opposition rather than the ruling party but at least he is giving voice to a very important message in the halls of power. I have said it before but will say it again, is a genius.

Lots of replies here missing the #Pride2022 meme. Have a search for 'I'm partnering' before reacting badly to this awesome tweet. Maybe have a think about the corporations who milk Pride for money while you are at it.

When I was young, I had a hard time figuring out how to come out and wished someone would take charge of the situation for me. That’s why this Pride, I’m partnering with The Sydney Morning Herald.

Coming out is often a long, scary process, with many beats. Self-realisation, telling friends & family, a first relationship. I thought the press forcing people to out themselves, regardless of whether or not they were ready, was a thing of the past. I must have been mistaken.

There is a lot of speculation about a certain Australian actor's sexuality circulating on twitter. Nobody but the people she has told really knows what it is so stop with the assumptions. Yes she is not straight but she probably hasn't 'turned gay' or 'become a lesbian'.

The most boring thing about Who Belongs At Pride discourse is that it’s literally outdoors in a public space and you can’t actually stop anyone. The discourse exists only to make people feel paranoid about whether they’re performing queerness correctly, don’t be a cop.

If you haven't figured it out yet, this lovely person is the #Heartstopper bisexual YouTuber. He does one hell of a job helping young queers like Nick Nelson figure out why they are "so, so confused!" ♥️💜💙🌈

I don't have words of wisdom, but I do have words of appreciation. If it wasn't for the people who support me and what I do I couldn't have achieved what I have, so to my family my subscribers and the people who build me up I want to say thank you ❤️
