Living on the unceded lands of the Ngunnawal / Ngambri first nations peoples, now known as Canberra. Please do not post requests for donations for families in Gaza in my timeline. Love my politics and my footy (aka Carlton FC) and my music.

Breaking: Capitol Police have been called after a Republican congressional office was just caught displaying a swastika.
