The tree cover in Sydney's Hyde Park is so lush and cool on a hot day.

(And yes, to everyone reading this from interstate or overseas: I know naming the big park in the Sydney CBD "Hyde Park" was not exactly a creative choice.)

(I'll also refrain from making the obvious jokes about Sydney's asbestos crisis.)

Custoslibera,

Take a walk through there in the early hours of the morning, it’s a rat highway.

New research shows that the insects flying around the streetlights are in fact in a living hell that we made for bugs.

Essentially, their tiny bug brains think the light is the sunset, so they keep turning to keep the "sun" at the same angle so they can go "straight." No matter how far they fly, they don't make any progress. They are trapped in this little hell we made just for them, not understanding why they can't get to where they are going.

Custoslibera,

What?

Hell is the most scientific of all locations.

Hail science!!!

Dealing with a government welfare system for the first time in a while.

Last time there were still people you’d talk to who’d smooth over the process.

Now it’s all online and automated.

And holy fucking hellscape Batman.

They’ve just shipped the whole bureaucracy along with their own software bugs.

And as the welfare seeker you have to navigate all of the details and jargon (and bugs/broken links) without any assurance that anything is ok, hoping the money comes.

Custoslibera,

This is what happens when conservative governments dismantle the social safety net in pursuit of profit.
