Tonight’s sunset at the Island
Today on #IWD I’m thinking of how a woman is murdered every 5 days by male violence. Of First Nations women being imprisoned at 25 times the rate. Of women seeking asylum in Australia being forced in poverty & homelessness.
I think people have been saying we can kiss 2C goodbye for some years, but not getting a lot a traction
Absolute idiocy
It is
Mine loves car rides cos they end with fun. A dog park or beach or our caravan. Last year we drove up to Brisbane & he loved the whole 1700km. We borrowed our son’s SUV & next time our son came to visit he went & jumped straight in his car 😜😂🤷♂️
Yep
this is extremely dangerous.
ICE bad and also, around half of people killed by police have a disability. Their final moments are usually spent in frantic terror trying to "comply" with commands before cops shoot. Not opening a door or answering a question fast enough in this country can be a death sentence.
At a time when misinformation, deep-fakes and artificially-generated content designed to look like real news is flooding Facebook and Instagram, their parent company Meta continues to block original, trusted Canadian journalism.

I’m Australian & I’ve never eaten one, but I am of sound mind
Correct. When I was a sole trader. I would have added telephone ring
That’s a bummer. I’m a big fan of the community solar & battery concept but there doesn’t seem to be much action on that front. A cynical person might suggest certain people have an interest in it not happening
I missed the bluesky vs X discourse but as always you can start everyone one of these debates with a simple question!!!!!
- Does social media website come packaged with a software system designed to freely generate child abuse materials on request
🔳 Yes
🔳 No
I would note also that the sun hasn’t always shined in the time.
Since we connected our battery, a fortnight ago we’ve bought ~80c worth of power. That’s just a constant trickle to control the current I assume. Now to get rid of gas completely
I discovered our local tawnies were back on their nest a couple of weeks ago. Got pictures yesterday. Two chicks
There’s actually a second chick under the adult, with its tail sticking out

Tawny frogmouth adult & chick on branch. Both facing camera perched on nest
Our local Tawny frogmouths had chick in Feb, which I’ve never seen before.
Slide it
I know a lot of research has been done into sex, including masturbation & brain function
Funnily enough I had a look over the weekend, for libraries that specialise in nature photography. They are mostly run by photographers & the websites are very aesthetically & functionally challenged. It gave me no confidence. I will explore further tho
