Australian journalist Peter Greste interviewing Chelsea Manning via satellite at the Sydney Opera House as a part of Antidote, after she was refused entry by the Federal Government (eye roll)… this was quite an intense conversation.
Ok another Sydney Opera House shot…

I was going through some old photos, when suddenly I stumbled on this Messages screenshot from 2015: Natasha noticed that I had become what Apple refers to as the ‘Man Pedestrian’.

For anyone in the U.S. who’s interested, there’s a wealthy industrialist in Australia by the name of Clive Palmer who is having another run at our Senate after a tumultuous first go. Here’s a nice rip-off ad that he launched recently. The copy may sound familiar to you.
