It's two weeks old, but I've used the new Metro Tunnel twice for work visits. Easily knocks off 20-30 minutes of walking/tram interchanges or the frustration of driving. Game changer.

Yet Fairfax looks down their tortoise shell specs and sneers. Losers.

Twitter implemented a new feature last night that displayed the country an account is in. So many of the ‘America First’ accounts were from foreign countries that they had to disable the feature within hours. 🙄

Got meade redundant from a job and while unemployed got a call from someone looking to fill a position. Wasn't keen but got talked into it with "if you don't like it, leave with no hard feelings". ~17 years later still in the field.
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

Why do so many Australian media branes think Victoria exists only to pay into the federation?

Why do they hate Melbourne building underground passenger rail but not Sydney?

Why are they always called Bernard?

There should be a rule in #auspol and media that if you seriously mention carbon capture and storage as a thing you should be banned forthwith. It doesn’t fucking exist. A fossil fuel industry myth. #insiders

I like that Elon Musk bought an entire social media platform to get people to laugh at his jokes, but instead just ends up telegraphing the most Fathers4Justice energy imaginable.

Ventured into Jacinta Allan's derelict Melbourne CBD today. Had to deftly manoeuvre through tens of thousands of potentially felons while pushing a pram to State Library children's section, where several innocent whitenesses saw one child steal a stuffed shark from another.
