We figured we’d give this one a final retweet tonight. It’s collected the lowest proportion of our #USElection2024 Trilogy (>30m views that we’ve seen). But in one week, in comments & messages, it’s really landed with swing voters -🤞🙏 part of a wider pattern of late momentum.
Here's our last parody song about the #USElection2024. It's called "Bohemian Trumpsody" (based on the inimitable @QueenWillRock but with only six voices & no overdubs) & we've self-trolled in it as 'libtards' already, just to save folks time who might be offended 🎶🗳️🤞

Vale Jane Godley - a comedian of the highest calibre. Funny, Wise and Totally Down to Earth. We shall miss you.
Earlier this morning Janey passed away in her sleep. Her family were with her.
The love and support from all her friends and fans during this cancer journey brought her enormous joy. It has also been a huge comfort to us, her family and close friends, thank you.

We who believe in reproductive freedom will stop Donald Trump's extreme abortion bans—because we trust women to make decisions about their bodies.
When Congress passes a law to restore reproductive freedoms, as President, I will sign it into law.

Thank you for your amazing endorsement @alimooreauthor 'Sless writes with a beguiling blend of intimacy and darkness in this absorbing collection of stories about relationships and loneliness and escape.'
Measured Silk is a meditation on loneliness.
Measured Silk and Other Stories @Aus_Scholarly set in Northern Suburbs of Melbourne - these interconnected stories are a meditation on loneliness ...scholarly.info/book/measured…
If you could recommend 5 books from Melbourne which encapsulated us as a City
What would they be?
Think widely across genres!
