I knit, cycle, read, cook, and try to listen more than I talk. Proudly married to Andreas.
Now that the Milsons Point bike ramp is nearing completion, it’s even harder to understand why people objected. It’s such a simple, elegant piece of construction. #cycling #sydney #sydneyharbourbridge

Never change, Berlin (spotted yesterday by a friend).
![Graffiti on a wall, below a lace-curtained window. The graffiti text, first in German, then in English:
Lieber Peter Salamander, trotz der Schwierigkeiten mit dem Roman, der Unwägbarkeiten des Kulturbetriebs, den Abgründen der Gesellschaft und des desaströsen Werdegang der Welt, lass uns für immer Freunde bleiben. Alles Liebe, dein Schwanzscwein [sic].
Dear Peter Salamander, despite the difficulties with the novel, the uncertainties of the culture industry, the abysses of society and the disastrous progress of the world, let us remain friends forever.

Four weeks after breaking a bone in my foot, I’m back on the bike. Not comfortable riding, but great to be out and about again.

Whether or not you approve of the Super Bowl "He Gets Us" ad, the rage coming in response from the US christian right is priceless archive.is/kzOtw
![Screenshot quote from linked article:
The most radically right-wing cohort of Christians were furious at the ad, and they've stayed furious for days. The Daily Wire's Matt Walsh called the ads "heretical [expletive]" and said, "Putting out an ad that invites narcissistic, prideful, unrepentant sinners to come and get their feet washed is bad, actually."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:mtd4kbo5trngmigcsrhbviyw/bafkreifu3fpz2bs5vvlqdpkpvjccmijdgjur7plcbmgy7njoddb3lfaydi@jpeg)

Seriously? Does absolutely everything have to be reduced to a them-versus-us hatefest?

Don’t ever get into an argument with a pelican while you’re pulling in a fish. Not only are they extremely stroppy, they also have a nasty hook on the end of their beaks.

For the first fifteen years or so I was able to just reach up to change our only analogue clock twice a year. Then it started to be a little more of a stretch each time. Two years ago I was forced to notice how much I'm shrinking, because I was no longer able to reach it without a ladder. 😬

The enraging arrogance of bureaucrats. If myGov can so easily be used to scam people, then it has been designed wrong.
