Not a doctor. Turn left at the next election. Nintendo, Xbox, nature, cyclist in Naarm.

I’m very much a casual #splatoon player these days. Just picked up the stringer on a whim and pulled this off in my first game. #fluke

Doom-scroll vibes today, bringing me down a bit. Looking forward to riding to work tomorrow though. Commute cycling isn’t as fun as weekend cycling, but it beats PT for fun.

Love the rhyming from Fixer Upper:

I bought a little plunger a few weeks ago in case it was needed for a drain issue. Didn’t need it in the end so it just sits on my WFH desk. Just realised it might be a subtle metaphor for the work?

The rush to smash the environment is cloaked in Chalmers speak.. β€˜how we can responsibly reduce and improve regulation and speed up approvals’? The word β€˜responsibly’ is joke. Albo’s intervention to remove fish farms from EPBC is not β€˜responsible’, it is extinction driver. #MaugeanSkate

PM’s trip to SA algal bloom reveals cautious Labor’s climate fears The Coalition lacks credibility on climate. But that doesn’t translate to an automatic advantage for Labor.

The Labor Govt delayed approving one of πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί's biggest fossil fuel projects until after the election & is now hiding the National Climate Risk Assessment.

Australians deserve honesty.

Selling out the people & places we love to vested interests must stop.

Whenever I eat a dried apricot I think of the beautiful apricot tree I planted and paid forward at my last house. Hope it’s growing well.

Had a decent stack on my bicycle yesterday and feeling very sorry for myself. Unfortunately my wife lives with chronic back pain so I simply β€˜cannot’ complain about pain. So, I’ll complain here.

im always taken aback by just how much cis people will humiliate themselves to be dicks to trans people. like sorry, youre confused about pronouns? how did you make it thru 6th grade english you slimy dipshit? why are you going on podcasts to advertise youre too stupid to understand simple concepts?

Climate fatalism is just as wrong as climate denial β€” it's never 'too late' for change Veteran environmentalist David Suzuki believes the time has passed us to stop climate change. He's wrong.

HEY here's a new piece for @crikey.com.au!

Sparked by David Suzuki's recent comments, but more broadly in response to the recent rise of performative fatalism: the reassuring, widely popular and lazy idea that fighting back against fossil fuels is worthless

Would an Australian newspaper ever gleefully report that people on unemployment benefits or sickness benefits had found a way to rort our system?

The Australian media really do like to put tax dodgers on a pedestal while obsessing about β€˜welfare cheats’

The old β€˜don’t know if I’ll apply for that job’. Until the afternoon it closes. Then β€˜ah shit, I’d better apply’ and end up doing a 4/5ths-arsed application.
