Yep, but for some reason we're both using energy from the grid and selling our solar for peanuts??

Used $1.45kWh from grid but sold 1.69kWh of solar to the grid

Anyone got any recommendations of good plants that can shade my east facing window? 😅 🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿

Buy honeycomb blinds, they said. It'd be good for thermal efficiency and light filtering, they said... ☀️🔥🕶😵

Haha omg yes Gen Z, buck that rightward trend! #AusPol

I'm sadly not surprised that Jacinta Allan was challenged as leader and subsequently resigned. In my co-authored chapter, I found that many women leaders entered the role after the resignation of long-time premier, and became saddled with their policy legacies while expected to fill such big shoes.

It was -5C this morning, but the sky was so clear for our walk! 😍

This morning I joined ABC's Morning Breakfast to discuss the rise of Pauline Hanson through a gendered perspective, from her popularity with women, her grievances against the media, to her transphobic statements in her recent Press Club address. #AusPol #GenderPolitics

My mum was sorting through some old documents and found this magazine my older sister made back in the early 2000s. ...Can you tell I was raised in SA Parliament House? 🤣 Good times 🥹 #PremierBlairWilliams

I saw THE MOST ridiculous wankpanzer armoured tank today 🤦‍♀️ I overheard someone ask the driver how much it weighed - 10 tonnes!! And the number plate reads "Bear 1" Who needs such a ridiculous vehicle that screams fragile masculinity and a hatred of society. 😵😵 Tried to get a photo...

Got ducted reverse cycle aircon installed in the house. Look how freezing it is! 😵 All rooms are 7 or 8C - so dangerously cold! (Not living there yet, so no furniture)

Want to dissuade people from voting PHON? Then link her to Trump: #AusPol

Dr Blair Williams@blairwilliams26· Jun 4

Looking at what PHON supporters care about in comparison to other voters... basically it's just immigration! Images below from Redbridge/Accent poll show that the only issue PHON supporters diverge is immigration (dark blue ranks 1st, medium blue ranks 2nd, light blue ranks 3rd, grey = not ranked)

Dr Blair Williams@blairwilliams26· Jun 4

We keep hearing that PHON's growing support is a result of the cost of living crisis. That she's favoured by struggling Australians... Yet if you look at the latest RedBridge/Accent Research poll, then it's clear that those who own their home outright are her biggest supporters! #AusPol

If Chris Minns cares so much about the top 5% of income earners (who don't even pay a 47% tax rate - the top rate is 45% for every dollar above $190,000), then why are you even in the Labor Party?? 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

As The Australian notes, not all of Albanese’s Labor colleagues are as pleased as Keating with the tax changes in the budget. NSW Premier Chris Minns has “thrown a bomb” into the debate with a call to “reduce the tax burden on workers, including the 47% rate paid by those earning more than $190,000,” the paper reports.
