Book clubs are often dismissed as glorified gossip, drinking and eating sessions, with a small side of book talk. But Dr Maggie Nolan, whose research explores contemporary book club culture, says they play a greater social role. bit.ly/3a5lg0F #acuimpact

Apparently wombats in fire effected areas are not only allowing other animals to take shelter in their deep, fire-resistant burrows but are actively herding fleeing animals into them. We’re seeing more leadership and empathy from these guys than the entire Federal government.

@QUT researchers investigated many of the 'miracle claims' surrounding certain health food trends and found the evidence doesn't back them up. We talked to one of the researchers on the study @HelenVidgen, as well as @ProfSCJones and dietitian Marika Day. thewire.org.au/story/qld-res…

Spare a thought for all the people who'll miss out this festive season. Charities do great work to pick up the pieces from bad govt policies that lead to poverty & inequality. It’s a choice our govts make #Increasenewstart #NoMoreCuts #stoptheattack #handsoffourcharities @salvos
