like oh yeah don’t mind me i’ll just influence unfolding events. i’ll know what’s going to unfold because the signs will be present early on. in the end it’ll all form a coherent narrative, probably mirroring my personal emotional journey. yeah right!!!!
A Klee painting named ‘Angelus Novus’ shows an angel looking as though he is about to move away from something he is fixedly contemplating. His eyes are staring, his mouth is open, his wings are spread. This is how one pictures the angel of history. His face is turned toward the past. Where we perceive a chain of events, he sees one single catastrophe which keeps piling wreckage and hurls it in front of his feet. The angel would like to stay, awaken the dead, and make whole what has been smashed. But a storm is blowing in from Paradise; it has got caught in his wings with such a violence that the angel can no longer close them. The storm irresistibly propels him into the future to which his back is turned, while the pile of debris before him grows skyward. This storm is what we call progress. — Walter Benjamin, Theses on the Philosophy of History

do you ever just feel like a landscape with a rich carboniferous seam that’s being strip mined
an open cut coal mine crawling with yellow and orange trucks and bulldozers. there’s no vegetation or any sign of nonhuman life. it’s all been cut away. when the mine is exhausted nothing will be left but an interestingly shaped depression in the landscape

COME TO THE MELBOURNE EYE! BE NOT AFRAID!

三十辐，共一毂，当其无，有车之用。埏埴以为器，当其无，有器之用。凿户牖以为室，当其无，有室之用。故有之以为利，无之以为用。 (The use of what has no substantive existence) The thirty spokes unite in the one nave; but it is on the empty space (for the axle), that the use of the wheel depends. Clay is fashioned into vessels; but it is on their empty hollowness, that their use depends. The door and windows are cut out (from the walls) to form an apartment; but it is on the empty space (within), that its use depends. Therefore, what has a (positive) existence serves for profitable adaptation, and what has not that for (actual) usefulness.

“Anyone who hasn’t been to the Docklands thinks, ‘Oh, the Docklands is terrible.’ But actually, we came down here for the ice skating a couple of weekends ago, and the place had an atmosphere. The only problem was the big dark thing in the middle of it,” he said, referring to the wheel.

probably not even a fifth www.abc.net.au/news/2025-07...
Of the data presently available on the internet worldwide, approximately 90 per cent was created in the last two years. Probably not even a fifth of that data comprises hot takes on the Mushroom Murders, but the trial of Erin Patterson

gonna dive into Mirror Footscray. i bet there’s no housing crisis in Mirror Footscray
Heavenly Queen Temple and environs, Footscray, Melbourne, seen from the east bank of the Maribyrnong River. The sky is very blue and the water is very still. Every building and tree and divine statue appears to be floating in space with its perfect reflected double. There is some trash though.

dalai lama at avignon
www.abc.net.au/news/2025-07...
In short: The Dalai Lama has appointed his charitable foundation, Gaden Phodrang, as the only authority to choose his future reincarnation. This ends years of speculation that the centuries-old tradition and institution will end when he dies. What's next? There could be two Dalai Lamas as China refuses to recognise him as Tibet's spiritual leader, and vows to choose its own.

Ok so in the 90s one study found feral cats were attracted to catnip, and another study found they weren’t. One proposed explanation was divergent population genetics. I think this may be the source of the claim “50% of Australian cats don’t have the catnip gene”
pestsmart.org.au/wp-content/u...
In 1994, Clapperton et al tested a number of cat attractants, using both pen and field trials, and found both catnip and matatabi to be successful candidates for cat lures. In contrast, Clapperton et al (1992) tested catnip in a field situation on Matakohe Island and found that it did not increase bait take. The authors concluded that this result might reflect the fact that there is a genetic basis to the response to catnip, with cats in some populations showing much stronger responses than in others.
