Wake up. Watch 10 min of #scavengersreign . Cry. Go about my day.

Well elected representatives of Australia, you've got the Climate Change Risk Assessment. If you don't act on this our effed up future is on you.

Part of our haul from the local market run by ten and eleven year-olds. Maybe Gen Alpha will be okay after all.

Sorry that should be Exobiology!

I'm finally watching #scavengersreign and my four year-old is watching #biglizardtv. Xenobiology for the whole family!

There's apparently never enough money to properly fund the #NDIS and yet there's always money for useless defence projects and tax cuts for large corporations.....

I'm very late to the party but #sinners is such a wonderful film! Also, the best cinematic musical in years!!

Saw Ridley Scott's #legend1985 for the first time this week. Has anyone done a deep dive on this film? I have sooo many questions...

Them: Heat pumps, like they have in Australia.
Me, Australian: What the hell are heat pumps?

Don't worry everyone, there are still some constants in this world. There is a new #juliadonaldson adaptation for Christmas and #robbrydon is in it.

My three year-old has been enjoying #eurovision. She did 14 costume changes through semi final 2 so she definitely understands the brief.

The green spaces are in drought and the blue spaces are suffering from the algae bloom/ marine heatwave. We've had no autumn and little rain. Going outside does nothing for the spirits at the moment. #southaustralia #climatechange #climatecrisis

I'm currently so depressed by world events that the Australian election result is only registering as a sense of mild relief. #australianelection2025

Bloody climate change. We have a drought, a marine heatwave, devastating algae bloom and somehow flooding in the north east. #southaustralia #climatecrisis

Eyes drive me nuts. I need to do more studies at different scales.
