Anyone know how the different political parties feel about coffee? Trying to make an informed decision for tomorrow.
I'm looking for date-night ideas? Care to share?

Commonwealth countries and former British colonies say that a "British Independence Day sounds ironic", probably.
Today the world drinks English #Brexit Tea
My natural gas supplier just wrote me a letter solely asking me to visit a URL. That's the world we live in now.
"Brexit", more like, "we just don't like other people"
Now it begins. First it was #Brexit, then it will be every country name mixed with a "we hate immigrants" word and some won't make sense!

2 things I know for sure, that our flight will always be at the furtherest away gate, & our luggage will always be the last on the carousel.
I love all this "respect for women" stuff like its a new top 40 album all the AFL leaders are really digging right now.
Boats: the 90s pop stars of #auspol
The day of reckoning has come: I have just received a booking from another Joshua Withers. I finally get to marry me!
I'm open to blog post ideas - anything you'd like help with that I could write about?

I would argue that if you're not taking a risk for love, then you're possibly not loving. Take a risk for your favourite person today.

So much love
Part of me is glad every day when i see him still alive, sticking it to 2Day FM simply by breathing air.
As confronting as that is, what a sad state of affairs for a radio station, and a talent, to be in. Waiting for a win in the obituaries.
Some initially suggested it would be cheap/houso type people - but there are so many people registering that have great jobs from good areas
The most amazing thing about #marriageamensty day is the people it is attracting. They're right across the spectrum of the population.
Hopefully I can do better mouth.
With any luck tomorrow at 7:50am I might do a little better.
I'm on air taking about #marriageamnesty & it's going to be awesome!
Consider this your official tease: The Today Show, Friday, 7:55am.
And a few news orgs have poked around and had a look at it
I haven't convinced a venue/cafe/something to let me host it somewhere yet, so at this point it might happen in Hyde Park or similar?
Things are going crazy on the #marriageamnesty front: photographers are flying to Sydney, and driving from across Sydney to shoot the day!
Step 4) Reinforce the reason why I'd never made a purchase on @Kogan before today. Nice company, @ruslankogan ✌🏼
Step 2) Delay asking for @qantas frequent flyer number until after payment
Kogan marketing: Step 1) offer a 10 @Qantas points per dollar spent to lure in new customers
I tried paying with my phone today, and looked like even more of an idiot than I normally would using Apple Pay.
I lost my Phone in Bali last week, I've been using an old iPhone in between insurance claims etc, & the feature I miss the most: #ApplePay
The last "most adult thing" ever was also with my accountant. I ought to stop seeing him. He's probably the reason I'm going grey.
I'm currently scheduling a tax-planning meeting with my accountant, topping the "most adult thing I've ever done" list.
I'm proclaiming September 24, 2016, a day of marriage amnesty, a pardon for everyone that wants to be married, but a wedding has stopped you
The best thing about tonight is realising there's a Twitter bot that auto-liked tweets that mention thought leader.
Every Monday night I realise I completely missed #qanda by living life outside of the outragesphere again.

Anyone with the email for Kyle and Jackie O's producers?
The public eye sucks balls quite a lot. What that statement is true, it's also seemingly where I've made my bed.
If you have been "meaning to", or "wanting to" get married but a wedding has been standing in the way, September 24 in Sydney is your day.
Launch time!!! I'm proclaiming September 24 as marriage amnesty day.
Do I sound desperate?
Any cafe at all in Sydney?
Somewhere for me to sit, with a laptop plugged into power, and sign the paperwork for a tonne of people to get married for free
I was originally thinking a wedding venue or something, but they're all full on Saturdays already ... so just a cafe might be awesome
Trying to find a place to host Marriage Amnesty Day on September 24, a Saturday
Sydney help needed: does anyone know a cafe owner somewhere around Sydney city/inner west/east/something like that?
FIL does't realise his Pandora internet radio uses the internet .... this is 2016 for sons-in-law
So, in summary: September 24 in Sydney, free marriages for everyone, consider it one big massive free pop-up wedding
Details etc all to come ... just thought I'd put a date in anyone's calendar
No cost, just eternal, unconditional love for some other human 🤘🏻
Because a marriage is wayyyy better than a wedding
So on September 24 in Sydney, I'm going to marry anyone and everyone I am legally allowed to.
Thanks to @MolksTVTalk and @BYoungBris for the word help
They asked me to donate my services they had paid for to someone else, and I thought, why not go one step further: a day of Marriage amnesty
One of my couples in Sydney have just called off their wedding, because despite wanting to be married, the wedding was too much. So ....
Which isn't really describing it well ...
It's a word to describe a day, or event, where everyone can be forgiven or atoned, kind of - like a day where a service is free for a day
Any word nerds able to help me remember the word I'm trying to think of?
