I bet there's not 13 negative pressure rooms available 😬

Janeway and Chakotay (Star Trek: Voyager) are conversing on the bridge. Janeway: I HEARD THAT YOU HAVE TATTOOS ALL OVER YOUR SHOULDERS AND BACK Chakotay: YES, CAPTAIN. AND SOMETIMES WHEN PEOPLE ARE SAD I LET THEM COLOR THEM IN Janeway: WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT? Chakotay: SOMETIMES PEOPLE JUST NEED A SHOULDER TO CRAYON

funniest highlights of the philly police scanner, a thread

Might explain why I saw a Spatchcock at Woolies today 😂

It's been ages since I last did a thread, so I figured it would be a good time to write one on the Werribee by-election!
On paper, it's an unassuming seat held on over 10%, but this by-election could very well change everything by next year's state election.

1/23 🧵

Werribee is too close to call but at the time of writing, Labor’s margin in the seat has gone from 10.9% at the 2022 state election to a razor-thin 0.6%. Could shrink even further. Share of first-preference votes has also gone from 45% to 28.7%.

Have you listened to the 1.5hr conference with Dr Shoo Lee?
I listened today and the expert panel provided evidence to suggest she's innocent. It was very comprehensive and it was just a summary.

Experts to reveal new evidence questioning child killer Lucy Letby's guilt: latest Team of international experts believe there are alternative causes of death for a ‘large number’ of Lucy Letby’s victims

An international panel of experts in the care of newborn babies are presenting what they say is “significant new medical evidence” in the case of convicted child serial killer Lucy Letby.

So we've had 4 hours of continuous storm activity here. I've never seen anything like it. Constant lightning. The thunder is still grumbling. Steady rain. It's remarkable 😲 ##melbweather

Three lightning strikes in a single image, with a forth dropping out of frame

Quick scan of my DSLR images, found this beauty from #MelbWeather this evening.

Lots of CC lightning in Wyndhamvale. Some distant rumbles of thunder. It's much cooler though #melbweather

Looking at my local mall, they had 3 of the mosaic group stores - nonni rockmans, millers. Only millers were still running. Thats 3 empty stores in a short period of time in one medium mall. A smaller nearby mall has 3 too and the big one has 5. A lot of empty mall real estate in close proximity

Don't be fooled by the cloud and storms, still hot out, the southerly winds are only at Apollo Bay, still a few hours to go.

Tonight we will be able to see 6 planets in the sky at once - from left to right Venus, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, Jupiter and Mars. Then look down at your feet for Earth - that’s 7 of 9!! @jerilryan.bsky.social
Here is a snap from the GoSkyWatch app. Sky should be clear until 2am in Melbourne.

I read earlier that some weather models show another heatwave around Feb 5th/6th, with 2 days over 40⁰ 😬

if they make anyone a person of the year it should be every teenager that works at a drive thru on the side of a freeway during a public holiday weekend

2nd line of rain and storms in Werribee.
What's the bet it rains all morning and still reaches 42⁰ this afternoon?
