Eastern European dictator vibes going on with all this gaudiness mixed in with some 17th-18th century French royalty. Add a pinch of Saddam’s excessively tasteless style and some vintage Franco Cozzo (Melburnians know what I mean) and this is what you get.

So impressed by Meg's Home Truths project, launching in Nov: "If Melbourne’s homeless residents had a public voice, what would they choose to tell us? A roving street-poster exhibition will showcase personal messages from Melburnians who've been homeless in our city" megmundell.com.au/home-truths/

Breaking news: the howling gale of the last 24 hours that brought down trees, knocked shit over and blew stuff all over the place and gave me a sleepless night has subsided. Melburnians, relief is on the way. The calm is coming.

Look, it’s 6:30 pm and I’ve seen no evidence of any Rapture. But that might just mean that Melburnians are all heathens. 🤷🏻♀️
Any rapture reports yet? I’ve walked the dog and cleaned the kitchen. Ready to go.

Channel 7’s “Sunrise” was on the hotel’s TV this morning.
I’d forgotten how bad it is. News without context or analysis. Childish skits.
They had a whole story about their own “state-of-the-art, expensive” Melbourne studio. Then some jokes about Melburnians being “cool” & wearing black.
Big yawn.

If it weren't for my focus on the climate crisis, urban river restoration would definitely be a passion that I would follow in a deeper way.
For my fellow Melburnians, there is a really fucking cool project to make the Birrarung swimmable. You should get involved:

Why has every capital city police force underestimated Pro Palestine protest sizes?
For what purpose?
Do they think Naarm folk/Melburnians can’t recognise a MCG size crowd?
I’m not saying it was exactly 100k, but in my 4 decades in rallies, footy crowds & parades - I know 10k from 100k.
