It's probably just the lighting, but this is actually a whole fresh barramundi.

I had it flown in at your expense.

Because I don't care about domestic violence and the women who are killed every week.

I know it looks like the wonderful food I let them serve in aged care.

But it's actually what women and children eat when they're homeless, or living in a car.

At least they're not all being met with bullets.

Just bashed and abused and raped by the man they trust the most.
I know one in six women are being abused by men but I don't hold a grudge.

I know one woman is murdered every week but that's not my job.

I know you don't like me, but you need me.

I know I'm a bully, but I promise to change.

And anyway, it's not my fault.

You made me do it.
I think you know who I'm talking about.

This dinner party is held because the government doesn't give a fuck about women, children, and DFV.

If they did, they'd support @SafeHavenCom.

And by being here tonight, you've made a difference.

Humbly, I cannot thank you enough.
One last thing.

If you're posting anything tonight, can you please add the hashtag #wbdp?

It will bring people together for the World's Biggest Dinner Party.

Thanks.

We're having a dinner party and you’re all invited.

It's being held right here on Twitter, tonight at 7 pm.

Best of all, you don’t even need to get outta your pyjamas (or stay sober).
Together with SafeHaven, we’re holding the World’s Biggest Cyber-Dinner Party.

And we wanna see photos of whatever you’re eating.

As they say: Build bigger tables, not higher walls.

And in our house here, the dinner table is infinite.
If cooking’s your fancy, show us your best.

But if you’re like me, a can opener is all you need.

And if you’re cooking a curry, make sure your personal photographer gets the lighting right.

We all know how badly that one ends.

I was sitting at a bar the other day, minding my own business.

A bloke walked up and sat down beside me.

He introduced himself as Twitter and asked if I wanted to join him.

Not wishing to appear rude, I said sure.

He was handsome, groomed, and rather well-tailored.
Being hopeless at small talk, I asked him about work (the sun was shining so the discussion of weather was brief).

He smiled and said, "Come outside and I'll show you what I do."

Curious more than interested, I followed.
When we were standing on the street corner, he pointed at the sky and started speaking.

I looked up, saw nothing, nor did his words make any real sense.

I'm patient, so I waited, watched, and listened.

A third person joined us, looked up and asked what we were looking at.

A Lockdown Story, from a different perspective.

A decade ago I was a high-functioning alcoholic, a lifestyle that often ends badly.

I found moderation impossible, leaving abstinence as the only solution, so committed to a three-month lockdown in a rehabilitation facility.
It was fucked, but saved my life.

Anyway, I wrote a reflection on the journey inside.

I find transposing a thought to the written word provides clarity: thoughts are fleeting, jumbled, and truncated. A sentence, however, is permanent and precise.

At least, that's the theory.
So if you're tired of reading about all that other shit, take a break and walk with me through the House of the Outsiders, and I'll attempt to make sense of the stupidity of addiction.

We all know the dangers of excess, and we all know someone who ignores the warnings.

First they illegally imprisoned asylum seekers.

Then they tried to illegally imprison Australians.

And if you don't recognise an authoritarian police state, you really haven't been paying attention.

One more time for those in denial: the 14 points of Fascism.
1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism.

The usual bullshit: patriotism, flag waving, beer drinking, a dickheaded prime minister wearing the national flag upsidedown as a mask, promoting nonexistent Australian Values, blah blah blah.

Fuck being a Quiet (submissive) Australian.
2. Religion and Government are Intertwined.

We don't have a prime minister: we have a religious minister.

And he believes (and preaches) that the rich are righteous and go to heaven and the poor are heathens and go to hell.

So, I'll see you in hell (my shout, by the way).

ALL MEN LOVE FEMINISM.

Okay, that’s the attention-seeking part done, so any blokes about to object can keep scrolling down.

This question on feminism was originally For Women Only, but in a salute to equality, if any men wanna contribute, your thoughts would be appreciated.
I consider the word FEMINISM a verbal hand grenade, but I’m also often wrong.

So why raise such a divisive subject? I’m glad you asked.

Here’s the reason: I have graciously been given the opportunity to contribute to a book entitled Feminism for Men.
It’s a beginner’s guide to feminism; an easy-to-read introduction for men who struggle with the concept.

As a man of the patriarchy, I have an opinion (“of course you do,” she says)

But then came the epiphany – what's the point of a man explaining feminism without consultation?
