Train station car parks are full. More people on trains avoiding using cars. Fuel prices changing behaviour. Echoes of 1973 fuel crisis when fuel efficient cars became more popular.

My new car sunshade from Aldi. 🍉

CSLewis quoted inside this old Doctor Who book. Seems timely

Taking the train to Parramatta. Trains delayed due to heat. That’s why I’m supporting @swelteringcities.bsky.social Heat disrupts our lives, is unhealthy and affects infrastructure.

In tribute to Catherine O’Hara will wear several wigs, red lipstick and fingerless gloves.

Hot Schools are too hot to learn. The Natural Turf Alliance worked with SMH journalist Emily Kowal on this story revealing that 58% of NSW public schools have synthetic turf. Unshaded plastic grass can heat up to 75degC affecting health and learning

Detonate the east wing vs renovate the Fed Reserve. Which one is questionably illegal ? Answer A. If you know your constitution & B if you are a triple trumper.

Sold out.

Trump will go out blazing this year, maximum damage. Wars, finance, court cases, whatever he is angry about, that feeds him, his brain is on man shouting at clouds mode. This will be his most destructive year of his presidency.

The faces. So much can be read, Trump looks annoyed or frustrated he has to play nice. He can’t get Ukraine to give up. Zelenskyy is just trying to keep his country together and Trump needs to be convinced. The invisible force is Putin. He has a spell over Trump.

The best distraction from the Epstein emails is to stop this actual war. Too much chasing after fabricated wars.

My favourite angry phrase except more mongrel. Excellent side by side

Please watch. Please share. Trump's masked thugs attacked a blind protestor in South Portland last weekend and dragged him away like an animal. The man is 4'6" and legally blind. A US citizen. "They picked the weakest person they could find," he told The Oregonian/OregonLive.

If you take away health benefits, trade opportunities, and food assistance, what’s next? (There are more problems ) How long will Trumps America last?

Dog in a hole.

Coming down the mountain. Sydney in the distance.

It’s always 11 mins Left on the washing machine countdown clock.

Sky cleanse

Air traffic controllers are not paid during shutdowns. The last shutdown (also under Trump) ended because too many controllers called in sick. Private jets then began to suffer.

It’s been said a few times about the same person. Whats your answer ?

It was the end of a long walk and was looking forward to a quick sea dip. Did not expect to find this sign. Watson’s Bay sea pool.

Well deserved. If you are more passive orientated you can watch the doco on SBS but you’d miss the humour in the book. www.smh.com.au/culture/book...

On a dog friendly walk today in Blackheath. Can confirm all dogs curious but very wary of spiky echidna. Good job nature.

you could write an entire book about this post and I will for the right price

Reporting a new Banksy mural which attacks the legal system for criminalizing protests against genocide, the BBC adds "the graffiti has been covered up and guarded". Thanks Dad.

Was it a living funeral

I’ve got make up on. My Face ID doesn’t recognise me.

Brief 🧵, as someone who has studied mass shootings for 13 years: -gender does not cause them -SSRIs, no -mental illness, no -internet/gaming, no Above can be compounding factors—but motive is complex, often very. The most fundamental combo: suicidality + rage + isolation + easy access to guns

Interesting Times is a challenging podcast in the best way possible. podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/i...

Really like this project by Ari Versluis and Ellie Uyttenbroek. Titled Exactitudes, it's a series of portraits stretching back 20 years that shows how people style themselves to signal they're part of a group and unique individuals within that group. exactitudes.com

The Sydney way to demonstrate is to walk across the bridge. Today. A wet cold winters day was a sea of flags and colours for Palestine. www.instagram.com/reel/DM4drJM...

Highly recommend this episode of Australian story. I hope they get the money for the clinical trial. I recall a story on ‘phages’ an Eastern European version of the same idea many years ago. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-07...

Bubble cloud Can you also spot the bird

Fog and road.

I knew this song could be repurposed. Brilliantly

I do legit forget that I'm an adult sometimes. Kinda sad sometimes. I still wanna think about what I want to be when I grow up.

Got damn

A pink sunset to settle the day.

"Texas as a whole leads the nation in flood deaths, & by a wide margin. A colleague & I analyzed data from 1959 to 2019 & found 1,069 people had died in flooding in Texas over those six decades.[..]Many of those flood deaths have been in Hill County. It’s part of an area known as Flash Flood Alley"

America First policy may result in cancelling ANKUS. Go ahead I say.

Expected problems from excess rainfall when constructing a synthetic turf soccer field in flood prone suburban fields in Sydney. You wouldn’t believe the cost blow out. Council: Kuringai Field: Norman Griffiths West Pymble www.step.org.au/index.php/st...

Karoline Leavitt indicates the administration is open to a denaturalization-oriented investigation against Zohran Mamdani

Not just excess, it’s a system built to keep people hungry so the rich can keep feasting. But the masses are waking up. Powerful video…

Dad Joke. Did you hear that Trump is building a golf course in Iran? They’ve already got the first three holes.
