Some good news.

Christmas beetles are back.

I saw a big one flying around yesterday, in Blaxland, & here are three tonight at my place in western Sydney.

As a parent, this is the parents job. And I’m sorry so many parents aren’t doing that job or don’t want to do that job and instead would like government to police not only their children, but everyone else. I know a lot of parents don’t want to hear that. But it is the truth. You need to parent.

As a geneticist, I find this very interesting.

As an evolutionary biologist, I find it is even more interesting, and illustrative of something-or-other

Personally, I think people should make babies the old-fashioned way - that is, personally.

At least when LNP was in we had hope that Labor would be better.

Now I feel trapped and betrayed

Could and should be SO different 😞😞 #auspol

This picture has been making the rounds again, and is being misidentified again.

This is a GOOSEFISH.

This is NOT a tasselled wobbegong shark.

It’s a great pic. I get why people are very excited about it. But it’s as easy to give it the right name as the wrong one.

– if you consider that a home battery system may cost $10-15k to buy and install today, you could put this money towards buying an EV instead and gain a significantly higher capacity battery, that can also drive you around.
