each time I go out to do the weeding the sun comes out and humidity soars to a thousand per cent.
nice and cool with a soft breeze while doomscrolling tho😎
in other news, the lemon myrtles are almost cleared. Hmu if you are in western Sydney. Three 6 year old trees, most flowers now seeding.
the aroma is soooo beeyoodiful.
I do trim these timeless beauties (because otherwise the postie would stop delivering) but love seeing them reach for the sky so much. Also an inbuilt kindling repository.

Morrison government fossil fuel commission (trading as covid commission). Remember not to fall for the “nothing on climate” lies served up by press gallery journos. Coalition policy is to spend public money on increasing emissions. Has been for years. abc.net.au/news/2020-05-2…
ftr Abbott did not just campaign on repealing the price on carbon. He had a piece of policy garbage called “direct action”, comprised of giving free public money to big polluters. Turnbull maintained it. Morrison rebranded and upped these corporate handouts.
every federal coalition politician is a climate criminal, by definition.
omg fuck me I can not describe how bad casual conditions are and how much worse it has got. Being casual is eleventy times more fucked up now than it was five, ten, twenty years ago.
we pay Scott Morrison $550K a year to watch him learn the limits of “because I said so”, which has never worked, as a way to manage human beings.
how many parents learn this the hard way. How many bosses. But we still are forced to stand by while Scott fucking Morrison works out the most basic lesson known to man - yes, man - in real time.
just speaking for myself here… I learnt that “because I said so” does not work when my oldest child was oh idk around four years old? He turns 30 this year.
the Japanese prime minister has cancelled a trip to Australia? Morrison says it is because they are dealing with the “exact same challenges” we are, a lie.
They do not have a terminally lazy leader who has chosen to prioritise pandemic politics for two years.
btw ABC News24 billed this presser as an announcement about a tennis player and his invalid visa.
his children have access to the best vaccine program in the world so getting kids back to school.
ya fave Samantha Maiden, who knows he announced publicly funded RATs at “point of care” - the old “testing clinics” - for the ranks of non-unemployed yesterday.
presumably she also understands the publicly funded RATs handed out to Morrison, his ministers, and their staffers are not limited to fewer than one per week.
and the idea that lazy slob earns his massive salary is obnoxious. He is paid $550K every year. He does not “earn” a single dollar.
“convenience purposes, casual purposes, peace of mind purposes” - Morrison is still accusing us of wanting to test for the hell of it.
omicron is pushing that curve up, says Morrison, hunching his shoulders and using both arms to weirdly simulate an exponential curve.
Old enough to remember when delta was blamed for his government making really shit spending decisions.
he keeps saying 10 million RATs supplied to “point of care” testing clinics. That is fewer than one for every two people, at places which have largely been closed, shut down, or do not exist.
