How much does it cost the EPA to investigate a licence condition breach, and issue a warning notice? More than $4040 is my thinking.

“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas & city center in 2021.”
Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death
The capital city is Finnish’ed with car-related fatalities.

I was brought up believing that Nazi and swatstickers were illegal. Did this change somewhere. World wars were fought to stop this type of oppression, yet here it is in Australia.
Outlaw it now.

I spent last week in an intensive 5 day workshop learning how to weave a willow coffin. Deeply satisfying to be weaving again, but the supplier wasn't terribly prepared, so we also learned advanced techniques to compensate.

Dear ABC radio, please have somebody with more expertise than me explain to you why “renewables are the cheapest form of power” and “power prices have gone up in the last years in spite of increased renewables” are not contradictory statements. And why slowing renewables will not bring prices down.

Only Arabic: When 'multicultural' media turns to racial profiling
I recently noticed something troubling while watching a British drama on SBS On Demand. Between episodes — over two full seasons — I kept seeing advertisements about Victoria’s new bail laws.

Tasmanian’s groundbreaking financial redress scheme for victims of our former laws against homosexuality and cross-dressing have unanimously passed parliament. It’s a great day for victim survivors, for the LGBTIQA community and for cooperative politics.
