One of our biggest cultural losses ever, honestly.

Well there’s probably a million of them starting a new life in central Moonee Ponds now so good luck to all the gardens there.

It’s wild! I honestly thought “surely this is somehow dog hair that’s gotten stuck to a stick leaf” but it’s so clearly coming from the eggs so I was grappling with reality.

What on earth am I looking at here.

Photo of a leaf covered in thick white hairs.

Close up of hairs seemingly coming out of lots of tiny white ring-like seeds or eggs on the leaf.

I've been avoiding mentioning this in any of my recaps, cuz I don't want to be a 24 hour AI scold, but the amount of AI slop at BIFF this year is disgusting. The intro film that plays before every movie is the shoddiest, ugliest slop that converts the festival logo into gibberish.

China’s comeback as the Kingdom of Bicycles is happening at a momentous scale. In Beijing, 3200 km of infrastructure has been built, with 200 km added each year. It is a spectacular course correction—an admission that cities with more people cycling work better for everybody. youtu.be/gQS97woWcq0

What a ride, Ryan! I’m glad she’s doing better. I know from my own family’s journey, sometimes comfort and therapy can come from very unexpected places.

20mph is a massive public safety and health win. This is also a huge reduction in NHs and emergency service resources and money saver too. It should be the default in built up areas with exceptions. right across the country

Interesting study on potential role of car sharing in cutting emissions in GB. 64 % of journeys are made by a lone driver. ⬆️ average occupancy was a target in the UK’s transport decarb plan (although no policies were put in place to actually achieve it).

No backbone or desire to do anything meaningful. They will now take this as a “mandate” to be as vanilla/bland as possible. I think only real pressure from other parties can challenge them.

Shoplifters is also great, a relatively well known and beautiful Japanese film, and just about anything by Hirokazu Koreeda also fits the bill. I want to say Glengarry Glen Ross, I hope Gen Z is still watching this. Absolutely STBY and Parasite.

The problem is: they've mistaken correlation for causation. They think their parents and grandparents had a good life *because* of manufacturing jobs. When, in reality, their parents and grandparents had a good life *despite* manufacturing jobs, because of unions, high taxes, and social policies.

Labor intentionally designed the NVES so it didn't tackle the root cause of climbing transport pollution (big cars), and the Coalition is still opposing it because it's 'too strict on big cars'. May as well just actually do real climate policy folks www.theguardian.com/environment/...

He said there are now cheaper EVs available in more categories – including utes – and they can save people about $3,000 a year on fuel and maintenance.

Prior to the NVES, Gaur said, Australia had “the worst standards, right next to Russia” but now companies are flocking to sell EVs here.

At the Everything Electric show in Sydney earlier this month, Gaur said, there were 36 brands on offer, while “three years ago, there were three”.

The Coalition opposed the bill even after the government watered it down, reducing the targets and carving out popular SUVs, including the Toyota LandCruiser and the Nissan Patrol.

Australian cars are, according to the government’s analysis in the lead-up to the creation of the standard, inefficient compared with other countries and responsible for megatonnes of greenhouse gas emissions, making up 11.4% of Australia’s total emissions.

That analysis found “manufacturers supply cars to the Australian market that aren’t as fuel efficient as the cars they supply to other markets”. It found manufacturers do not offer the same range of electric vehicles, including plug-in hybrid electric (PHEVs), hybrid electric (HEVs) and electric, because of the lack of a mandatory standard.

I’m shocked and very saddened to hear Donald Shoup has passed. It is SERIOUSLY so hard to overstate the incredible legacy of his work on parking policy! He was also so uniquely excellent at public impact and change-making in such a challenging area, and also such a kind and generous colleague.

Overheard on the bus today: “It’s too expensive to park the car in town and now the kids have free bus passes, it’s just as easy to take the bus.” Policy in action.

It's unbelievable that even when they're parked, motor vehicles are so dangerous to people on bicycles. One of the best cyclists in the world, Olympic champion Remco Evenepoel, was on a training ride and got doored by a parked van, and suffered fractures to his rib, shoulder blade, and hand.

Bravo Cardiff. Absolutely the right thing to do. Local parking reforms have a big role to play in reducing the number of large cars on our roads with all the benefits this brings - for safety, climate, air quality, space in our crowded public realm and, as mentioned here, road maintenance

Another view of the same intersection, so that’s Santa’s Chair right in the centre there.
