I'm a policy nerd, studying Italian, trying to grow veggies and learning to be more tolerant and empathetic.

I like tea, libraries, jigsaw puzzles, fridge magnets, cooking, mountains, trains, rescue dogs, history docos and southeast asian islands.

When I grow up I want to be a train driver. Or a librarian. Or maybe a character in a William Gibson novel.

I only boost pics with Alt Text. My posts vanish after three months.

@Natalie did you buy that book?

@Natalie it looks cheap, like almost self-published cheap, which seems appropriate

"But I am entitled to make decisions in my personal life including selling a property that I own because I wish to move on in my personal life in a different direction. The property was bought when my personal circumstances were different."

Let's remember that part of that change in his 'personal circumstances' is his move into publicly-funded supported accommodation, and that he has already sold, at a massive profit, another property in Canberra which was paid for with his parliamentary travel allowance

Wonder if Gina's problem isn't her depiction in the portrait, but the fact that it was painted by someone from a people that her Daddy wanted to wipe out.

Don't look at this unflattering portrait of Gina Rinehart. It upsets her.

"Australia is unique in that its roads are so heavily dominated by “gas guzzling” SUVs and 4x4s".

"Passenger cars and light commercial vehicles are responsible for 60% of Australia’s transport emissions and more than 10% of Australia’s total emissions...Alongside their environmental impacts, SUVs have been criticised for their dangers to other road users."

@arose62 @damonism I have people in both the US and now the UK who think my gmail address is theirs. Today I've received an account setup email for a pension account and another email about what is now an official data breach incident relating to a police complaint (I actually replied to this one recently telling the police investigator they had the wrong address)

A rising road toll in the US. A rising road toll in Australia. Journalists give 1000 reasons why it could be happening.

And they studiously avoid mentioning the growing proportion of massive SUVs and pickup trucks on the roads. If they mention it at all, it's only in passing: https://youtu.be/Hb5_RUNeC0g?si=uuns6D1I6fGINdpU

But.

If you have larger and heavier cars, with larger blind spots, of course you're going to have more fatalities!

Remember kids: Every 10cm a vehicle's hood height increases, the risk of fatalities grows by 22%: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2212012224000017
