I so adore #RecipeOfTheDay, it’s hard not to sound unattractively boastful when I talk about it. But truly, this Luscious Vegan Gingerbread does have something miraculous about it. It’s dark, sumptuous, squidgy and simply divine – I named it luscious for a reason! www.nigella.com/recipes/lusc...
Luscious Vegan Gingerbread
I am preposterously proud of this squidgy gingerbread, and I don't mind who knows it. It's everything you want out of a gingerbread — sticky, spicy, deeply aromatic — and you would never miss the butt...

What the social media ban assumes about our society is that the places where adults congregate to share ideas are never safe for children. And it’s wrong

Significant statement from the Ombudsman on payment suspensions - the system is unfairly and unlawfully punishing people who are "below the poverty line" and are "unlikely to find ongoing employment no matter how hard they try to comply with the requirements placed upon them"

sometimes i think human history is just a constant cycle of insecure men thinking wealth and power would address the void in their souls, then getting increasingly rageful/reactionary/nihilistic as each passing year shows this is not true and as the threat of death becomes increasingly less abstract

Segal says she denounced it to the media that "did contact my office".

That is false.

Teens are posting online about using VPNs to get around the under 16s social media ban, as VPN makers and people selling these services target Australians with advertisements and how to guides. But the government has told tech companies they need to thwart these efforts.

Once again reminding everyone that I'm extremely pro-porn and I think that porn is one of the fundamental forms of expression worth protecting.

You protect porn first and everything else follows, but you protect porn first
A lot of creators essentially saying "My work might contain nudity and sexual situations, but it's NOT porn. My work is important and artistic, while their work is dirty, which is still okay to hate and censor." But guess what! The purity squad makes no such distinction.

Labor sat on the “jobs for mates” review for 2 years; they wrecked the NACC; they haven’t introduced whistleblower protection laws despite promises; they’re trying to crater FOI laws; the ANAO missed half its targets bc budget cuts… & they have the nerve to talk about the abuse of transparency laws.

The weather is pleasantly not 35 degrees in Wollongong.

Had closed up the apartment to keep the heat out and it's now warmer inside than out.

she's a queen and we should all follow her example.
In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

An actual decent FOI law change (rather than the friendless bill before the parliament now) would be to actually have some sort of penalty for documents of government that should be retained for FOI purposes but aren't (such as disappearing messages in certain apps)
