In the end I couldn't make it in to the Princes Park Vigil in time but I was walking home and it seemed appropriate to stop and walk through my local park. The park that anytime I'm walking home in the dark always makes me have to stop and make a decision. Do I walk through? (a park that's actually quite well lit and probably totally safe) or should I walk that little bit further around cos...well you know. It usually depends on what time it is and how many people are around. Also how I feel. Brave and a little defiant? I should feel safe to walk through this space so fuck it I will. A little more anxious or wary today? Maybe I go round, just in case. But it shouldn't matter how I feel. Bravery shouldn't be required to safely get home, whichever way I go. It's not even about whether or not I would be safe but why should it even have to be a thought? I feel quietly hopeful at the change in the mainstream conversation and the powerful response from so many (even as I despair at the responses from those whose victim blaming and ignorance is a tale as old as time) RIP Eurydice 💖 #rip #eurydice #qiyu #endviolenceagainstwomen #reclaimprincespark #reclaimthenight #vigil #lighttheway #melbourne

@richarddinatale @fionapattenmp @wheelercentre A common sense and compassionate conversation about the way we could implement effective drug policies that address some of the inequality intrinsic in our current system. To destigmatise, support harm minimisation and actually help people. Basically, to reevaluate the (quite frankly) clearly failing current approach. It seems obvious. #wheelercentre #melbourne #legalisation #auspol #greens #REASON #government #policy #publichealth #crime
