egg free pavlova - made with chickpea 'juice' or the water in chickpea cans (aqua faba).
Apparently the pork rib cut in Australia is slightly different to the cut in the US, because of how we make our bacon. We don't just have the streaky stuff, we're big on the 'short cut', which takes a lot of the meat off the baby back rib so they're kind of sparse.
But I found a really great rib rub, and a helpful bbq method.

Some good news in the face of the weekend's neo-Nazi rally down in Melbourne (which a fringe Senator attended but claimed he saw 'no Nazis' in spite of the damn NAZI FLAG BEING WAVED ABOUT) and why is every person defending him white and male? I WONDER.
Politicians are panicking at immigration, Australians (mostly) are not. Of course, the downside is that those who are making a big song and dance about immigration are easily reachable and tend to be spread out across rural electorates, while those who think it's nothing to worry about are in our highly concentrated urban centres, and are more likely to vote conservatively on other matters.
An article about choosing not to hate: Alpha Cheng's father was shot by a teenaged Muslim terrorist; but he's standing up to anti-Muslim sentiment. It probably helps that his own experience of Australia is highly intersectional, too, like mine, as a non-white.
Rupert Murdoch's grip on democracy: when you control their media, you control their minds and Murdoch very much controls our media.
The media feeds I'm watching seem peculiarly obsessed with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Like, every second article is about her.
