🚴🏽‍♂️🇮🇹🇧🇬🌸🍷🏔️ | Giro d’Italia ‘26 | Three joyful weeks following the Giro d’Italia from Bulgaria’s Black Sea coast to the torturous Italian Alps with the always erudite & educative company of @nedboulting.bsky.social on the ‘world feed’. Most stages starting 7pm for me. Perfecto 👌🏼 #Giro #Cycling #Italia

🚙🔋🏡☀️💰 | The smartest people today run an EV off their home rooftop solar panels and aren’t chained to rogue actors on the world stage, unending geopolitical turmoil, and a crap polluting black sludge that should stay in the ground. You’re wealthier & safer with an EV. #EVs #Solar #Renewables #Energy

🇮🇷🕌🦚🐆🏔️ | Lucky to have an Iranian friend now living in Queensland who talks to me about the wildlife, the landscapes, the seasons, the exquisite architecture and gardens of Iran. It’s a place I’d love to travel one day. I wish for peace, certainty & lasting freedom for its people there. #Iran #Persia

🇦🇺🇱🇰🏏🏆 | No spot for Steve Smith or form batter Matt Renshaw 🤷🏻‍♂️ Maxi looks cooked and Cam Green is so overrated. 181 on that belter of a pitch with dinky boundaries is about 20-30 under par I’d say. Gonna take some defending 😬 #Cricket #T20WC #AUSvSL #SriLanka

🇦🇺🇿🇼🏏🏆 | #AUSvZIM #T20WorldCup #Cricket Plucky throughout and never out the game, Zimbabwe rout Australia despite my QLD Bull Renshaw holding together the 🇦🇺 chase. Yet another surprise in this fascinating T20 Cricket World Cup.

🇦🇺🔥🏏 | Crikey! What a season at the Gabba…some thrilling finishes. Xavier Bartlett has grown and grown as a cricketer. Surely not far off a go in the test team. Bloody handy #9 and 1st change bowler I reckon. #HeatBBL #BigBash #Gabba

Meanwhile they turn millennia old virgin forest bear habitat into barren monoculture cedar plantations for the building trade and wonder why bears are migrating in search of food. Fix the root cause, FFS 🤦🏻‍♂️ Now yet more of the ugly mesh fencing that’s ruined rural scenery around rice fields. So dumb.

🐻🎌🗾⛰️🌳 | Japan bear attacks increasing. In our mountainous rural area we only hike in groups with bells and poles. Crazy that bear spray is restricted. Rural depopulation luring more bears but also shortsighted govt forestry policy destroys native habitat for monoculture logging plantations of cedar.

We’ve loved the village feel of the squares in our arrondissement putting on summertime games for families and preventing cars from dominating the streets. It’s a totally different feel for a world city and a model of what can be accomplished if there’s the political will. Bravo Paris 👏🏼🇫🇷🌳🪀🧩🪁♟️🎲👩🏼‍🦽🏃🏻‍♀️🥂
