Time to pack up and leave this ruined place. I shall shut this feed in a bit. Heading to bluesky here. bsky.app/profile/dougie… Can't explain why but K D Lang singing Leonard Cohen in Sydney sorta fits. youtube.com/watch?v=ZvhD1c…
Twenty-five years ago today. I arrived in Australia to join the ranks of the Scottish diaspora. Naturally, this vain old fool wrote about it here: dougieherd.com/post/if-a-tree…
Powerful, excellent, timely #WaitingForGodot last night @thestreetcbr Cast, direction, staging, lights, sound & super-friendly venue team were all brilliant. Until 24/11. Go if you can. thestreet.org.au/shows/waiting-…

Decent Americans .... folk just like you and me and a gazillion other decent people around the world... have had their fill of the orange guy. They see through him at last. @KamalaHarris will win on Tuesday. Something new is on the way. It's called the future.

"It is hard to imagine a candidate more unworthy to serve as president of the United States than Donald Trump." @nytimes Editorial Board nytimes.com/2024/09/30/opi…
These thoughts came to me this morning. "Not long after you break your neck in three places (in a not-swimming-well-enough accident) people tend to ask a lot of questions. Top of most people's list is, “doctor, will I walk again?” Not me." In my blog: dougieherd.com/post/poetic-ju…

Hey @auspost ... I explicitly wrote on my disability items supplier order form "leave at door". Got your email message today telling me you've taken parcel to a collection site because no one is at home. More difficult for me, now. And against my wishes. What is the point of you?
Congratulations to Louise Glanville -- my former boss (when I worked at NDIA during #NDIS launch phase). We need a strong & effective Commission to protect rights and promote quality that isn't just about ticking boxes. Good choices @billshortenmp
I'm pleased to announce Louise Glanville as the new Commissioner of the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission, starting 30 September 2024. Acting Commissioner Mike Phelan has also engaged leading disability rights lawyer Natalie Wade to assist with registration and reform. 1/2
