First sighting of the Magic in Europe in a Barcelona coffee bar. As a coffee historian, I am quite interested to see how long it takes for this new coffee brew from Melbourne to conquer the Continent … fyi: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_(... #coffee #skystorians

I’ve been wondering whether the whole “flammable cladding” issue has been properly addressed here and elsewhere. Have all those dangerous claddings been replaced? If not, perhaps these recommendations will rattle some dags.

How to avoid sexual assault! A QUICK AND EASY GUIDE*

sexual violence centre cork

1 DON'T PUT DRUGS IN PEOPLE'S DRINKS

4 WHEN YOU SEE A WOMAN WALKING BY HERSELF, LEAVE HER ALONE.

3 WHEN YOU COME ACROSS SOMEONE WHO IS DRUNK OR ASLEEP, THE BEST THING TO DO IS NOT RAPE THEM.

6 CARRY A WHISTLE. IF YOU THINK YOU MIGHT RAPE SOMEONE, BLOW THE WHISTLE UNTIL SOMEONE COMES TO STOP YOU.

2 USE THE BUDDY SYSTEM! IF YOU CAN'T STOP YOURSELF FROM SEXUALLY ASSAULTING SOMEONE, ASK A TRUSTED FRIEND TO ACCOMPANY YOU AT ALL TIMES TO STOP YOU.

5 IF YOU ARE IN A LIFT AND SOMEONE STEPS IN, REMEMBER NOT TO SEXUALLY ASSAULT THEM.

*for perpetrators.

I think I’m the only one disappointed by Coyote vs Acme. Very thin. I enjoyed seeing some of those old characters (Peter Lorre, vultures, Tasmanian Devil) but even Bugs felt NQR. Glad I have the original cartoons on DVD.

This is a great decision by the Greens. Anyone who's followed his work behind the scenes in the NSW and Federal parliament knows what a fearless, forensic, insightful mind he has. He can cut through just as Australia really needs it. Bravo!

Commenting on the dress, body shape, hair or anything else physical is low-hanging fruit and as unacceptable with racists, misogynists and the obscenely wealthy as it is for others. Who cares what they look like? It’s their behaviour and unscientific beliefs that are gross and ugly.

Caladenia paludosa - Swamp Spider Orchid Often found growing in dense coastal heathland in areas that are swampy in winter, hence its common name. Endemic to the southwest of Western Australia. #orchids #ozflora #wildoz #nativeplants #inaturalist #bloomscrolling 🌿

Picture of a single orchid flower that has long, thin petals and sepals that are greenish yellow in colour with a deep red tip to the central labellum. The labellum has long red-tipped fringing. The ends of the three sepals have think brown tips.

In the Park

In the park,
the tall trees are waving
in the morning breeze.

I wave back
only to realize they are waving

The ritual that follows each death is by now familiar. Flowers appear on a suburban footpath under a photograph that was taken at a barbecue or a wedding. A minister finds a microphone. There is a candlelight vigil, sometimes a march.

I feel like one of the most radical, best and most rebelliously good things you can do right now in the informational online space is just....give people credit, love, support and shoutouts. Even if they just inspired you or prodded a thought you built on, name them and thank them loudly.
