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.

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

The Labor Govt delayed approving one of 🇦🇺'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.

Just pushed on the door to leave the bathroom at work when the building radio started 🎶they say we’re young and we don’t know…🎶 and I immediately thought, ‘please god, no’!

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 ‘cannot’ complain about pain. So, I’ll complain here.
