This is my favorite part of the order, paragraph 28:
The plaintiff has diligently maintained a series of contemporaneous journal entries from June to September 2022, which vividly reflect his emotional and physical struggle, including: muscle fatigue, soreness, and difficulty concentrating; soreness in the buttocks, groin, and hamstrings; general tensing, strange posture, and extended arms; flushed face, chest pain, distress, and constant thoughts; early departure from work due to chest pain, stress, and anxiety; mental exhaustion, disrupted sleep, and tense neck; poor sleep, intense dreams, and waking up tense; increased emotional response, extra sleeping tablets, and persistent thoughts; stress from emails and discussions, resulting in a sore neck and tension; inability to stop thinking, feeling shaky and scattered; upset from Twitter posts, lack of sleep; inability to work, constant thoughts, and emotional distress; emotional distress from reading defamation acts and comments; intoxication, difficulty dealing with court action, and continuous thoughts; traumatic holiday trip, feeling unwell; diarrhea; difficulty concentrating and productivity issues; sleep disturbances, concerns about news; forgetfulness; distressed visit to the dentist; need for time off due to stress, weakness, and fatigue; inability to sleep, reluctance to work, and physical symptoms; moderated post, feeling sick, work incident, justification to leave work on time; deep emotional impact, awareness of public concerns, and heavy drinking.
Imagine if Humphrey had a lawyer who would have gotten a copy of Mr. Wale's journal and asked Mr. Wale all manner questions about where the pain in his groin buttocks was located, his life history of pain in his groin and buttocks, whether he has ever engaged in private activities that can cause pain to groin and buttocks, and why he believes this pain is caused by Humphrey's tweeting and not by his history of other alternate activities like sticking things up his ass or masturbating too much or having unprotected homosexual or heterosexual sex with high risk partners.
Then ask his whole life history of intoxication, heavy drinking, etc. and why he thinks his intoxication and heavy drinking in August 2022 was Humphrey's fault.
It is of course amusing to me that it's now a matter of court record in Australia that a judge ruled that he is literally a pain in the ass.
