@McCartneyWP I know that after my friends were on a bus that was shot up, and a bus I missed blew up, and the bar I frequented was shot up, I definitely didn't go on any murder rampage targeting anyone let alone children.

@thmsenglsh Fair

I am receiving hate from my family for my decision to wear skinny jeans to my sister's wedding.

@Blue_Pie_Ninja @RLMaximalist HSR station needs to be built in Parramatta

@RLMaximalist @central01000011 The HSR station needs to be built underneath it. Having building foundations above would complicate things a ton.

I'm sorry, but you have to be insane to prefer leaving a 200m wide gap here than allowing construction of new buildings above one of the world's largest and busiest railway stations

@TimLooker Lol

In 1997 Australia sold $800 million of agricultural products to Iran and this would have grown had the USA not imposed sanctions killing this trade. Iran has done Australia no harm and at 90 million people, wealthy with oil revenue, it could have been a great customer.

@pflodin @econoadabsurdam The past is a foreign country

@econoadabsurdam @central01000011 They managed to cover North Sydney station in late sixties

@moneynothaver I am not known for my patience

@central01000011 Just wait for this to get resuscitated as part of high speed rail. Be patient, our plans are measured in centuries 🙏

@ThePaperSolent @fabiodeuxbeer I might be wrong on this as well; suspect they measure ticket/gate data. If so, a lot of people changing trains wouldn't be counted.

@central01000011 @fabiodeuxbeer This tweet led me down a rabbit hole and I have since learnt Central (45.1m) is the 4th busiest station in the Southern Hemisphere behind Jakarta Manggarai (84.3m) and Tanah Abang (56.6m) stations, and then Town Hall (48.5m). Naarm doesn’t make it to the list (SX and FS have 20m)

The Twin Towers.

@econoadabsurdam @aussiewongm Obviously I'm not saying it is easy, certainly not in this order of events; only that it is worth serious consideration, ignoring NIMBYs

@aussiewongm @central01000011 Yeah, I heard something to this effect with fed square - it's a ton of money to cover those tracks and the foundations required to make it work. Maybe that's easier if the tracks are spaced further apart and you're not retrofitting big pilings into small spaces

@JASeagal Why, not because ;-P

No shit. It's because they aren't Christians.

@dannolan Just have one house

half of the australian gdp would be spent paying for senators

@Nirgal451 Looks like a nice place for a metro station

The BMC-Leyland plant in Zetland (Victoria Park), Sydney. How it was in the 1960s and today.

@econoadabsurdam My guess is not much more than any other tall building on a brownfield urban site, plus the TfNSW buggeration overlay

@central01000011 Only question for me is how expensive are those concrete footings required to put anything above the tracks

@Nirgal451 RETVRN!

Central Station in Sydney over station development. And like that, it’s gone.

@larissawaters Periodic reminder that communism is bad

Every time there’s a war or crisis, the price of petrol, food, energy and housing go up - and so do the profits for the corporations that sell them. That’s no coincidence. It’s the system working as designed. Billionaires sent us to war, and everyday people are paying for it.

@retrobike_c16 @LachlanB_ Best I can do

@central01000011 @LachlanB_ Should have this also: x.com/casquetteurs/s…

Yeah baby

@retrobike_c16 @LachlanB_ Every pair of pages inside is from a different bande dessinée

@central01000011 @LachlanB_ lol, superb

@LachlanB_ Straight to the moon!

@central01000011 Does it smell like cheese and chocolate? 🤔
