Green is my favourite colour. Always has been always will be. Fitting then that when I was in Broome recently I nabbed this beautiful @environskimberley tee from the op shop, which relates to an important message to share from them about protecting the beautiful Fitzroy River.. and a petition you can sign! ποΈ
βWA’s new Premier Roger Cook will decide the fate of the Martuwarra Fitzroy River and whether the river will be protected or opened up to damaging large-scale development.
There is overwhelming community support for protection of the Martuwarra Fitzroy River, with over 26,000 petition signatures and 43,000 submissions calling for the WA Government to protect the river.
As WA’s new Premier, Roger Cook can create an extraordinary legacy by protecting the Martuwarra Fitzroy River.β
I just signed this petition, it took me 3 seconds. Link is over at @environskimberley
Letβs get behind them in protecting the magnificent Kimberley, itβs people, animals, lands and rivers. ππ½ππ½ππ½ Thanks to my darling @taja.photography for this photo outside my fave Broome haunt, @littlelocalbroome #broome #kimberley #fitzroyriver #green vs #machine #petition #protection
An inspiration. A true warrior, seeker, truth digger, ethic upholder. Her interview with @blindboyboatclub on his podcast was one of the most relaxed, profound, insightful glances I could hope to have into this extraordinary woman, artist and activist, (back when that word meant more) Highly recommend having a listen. Vale Sinead. You fire. Thank you for being you and for always pushing against the pricks. I hope youβre one with all you loved and that loved you. Xx #punk #priest #poet #person #sineadoconner
Climbed a mountain and we turned around..
Donβt know what Iβd have done without nature, the bush and my bush lovin buddy these last few years hey? Nature shapes, trees and granite, clouds and kookaburras.. taking in the icy morning air and the last strains of sunrise. Pretty great way to start the day.. β οΈ #mountaintherapy #godpatch #pastoralpanarama #bushkidssticktogether

I found a VERY βmeβ little cafe in Darwin and have had about 40 flat whites here in 48hrs.. Gahh. Iβm a sucker for the rare comfortable, cosy, textured, down to earth, GREAT QUALITY coffee/food but non-fussy environment/attitude places! I fear sadly they are almost gone from Melbourne. I sooo miss the old cafes of st Kilda and Fitzroy that had exactly THIS kinda charm. THATβS what I thought cafes would be when I was a kid. Places where you could stare at a wall for hours and there would actually be something to look at, get lost in? Other than just packets of coffee and coffee making equipment. Yes I know Iβm in a place of coffee making guys. But are cafes not for daydreaming? Killing time? Iβve always used them that way. Now itβs take aways on the hop or laptops out and down to bizznizz. I absolutely partake of (regularly) these more polished, precise roasted on-site, uber technical but somewhat vibe-less (unless youβre a 100% coffee snob who is THRILLED by talking about, reading about DEEP DIVING coffee beans and blends and brewing techniques .. π₯± ((just kidding thank you for your hard work!! Coffee is mostly delicious these days thanks to you people!!)) But what about the poetry of the cafe? Dare I say the vibe? Is it dying? Can we maybe have a lil return to less clean as whistle white monogrammed you bought the cuppa now buy the t-shirt model back to the cosy old bolt hole style? Iβm ready for it. Call me an old bohemian or bohemian wannabe. I probably am! Child of the 90βs an all that. ππ»ββοΈβοΈ Anyway! LOVE your work @the1995darwin – please open a Melbourne sister store Xx #franchise #coffeethinkin #caffeinedrinking #jest #ilovebaristas #donthateme #iloveALLcafes

Via @valimyerstrust a portrait by @anthonycaroniafoto – Feel like putting a few more heroβs on my grid. So happy birthday Vali!
It would have been her 93rd. A forever memory meeting this woman.. My wise wonderful mum took me to see her in her Nicholas Building studio when I was a kid, 9 or 10. We chatted. I told her I wanted to be an artist. I was from a nothing special socio economic background, a snaggle toothed girl from a tiny town nowhere near a cultural centre. She said βyou can do itβ. I believed her.

Iβve been feeling we need more actual singing/music content around here, as Iβm at the tail-ish end of an album cycle and Iβm a bit short on actual music βtentβ, – Iβm digging into the recent archives! This one was fun, challenging and a blessed opportunity to do something DIFFERENT (yay!!) in amongst lock downs (THAT fun little βam I actually going mad from restriction / repetition??β era) This was a remote collaboration with lovely man, John Foreman and the Arts Centre, for the Big Night In 2020.
A Dusty Springfield classic! I Love this song. Hope you dig my version. #dusty #ijustdontknowwhattodowithmyself #singersgonnasing
