@russellcrowe Very Australian way of handling it. Completely normal.

Clickbait. Everybody got their autograph and selfie, the passage to the hotel was kept free for guests, and I still got to the airport on time. One man, no security. Handled. What’s your problem ?

@lowlandsapien I love the Dorfs; very fond memories of my grandparents place in Hahndorf. Aus/German wind in the willows-esque memories. Beautiful countryside and township.

Just when you thought Hahn was our only Dorf

@OreganoJeauxns I recently channeled the same energy opposing an adjournment, pointing to my walking cane and my limp by saying “life’s unpredictable your Honour. Just saying…” It’s a good prop that’s for sure.

Who knows what evil lurks adjourned for four weeks to take instructions and send submissions?

He’s seen the tweet but he’s not liking it. 😂😂😂😂

This is me justifying to my bro why I’m not using Slack, GitHub, TickTick or anything other than Signal and .txt files when creating an AI criminal law tool… 😂

@lowlandsapien Age. Drag create by muscle. Becomes a point where it’s not useful in the water.

How the fuck did Magnussen finish last? Is the whole idea of this thing incorrect?

@PeterCo80925840 Amazing. I still remember first time I had chamomile I had grown myself. Powerful stuff!

@fchralph We live in a block of units. With our neighbours' and owners corp's consent have taken over the front 'lawn'. Local pizzeria raids our Rosemary, Thyme and Sage. Local Ayurvedic practioner's mother raids the Chamomile & Curry tree. Local kids, the strawberries and raspberries.

Here’s a little glimpse of what I think the future of farming and food will be; as cities become more dense and climate change bites. Years ago in 2022 I tried a salad with a lot of ingredients; called the Insalata 21, 31, 41, 51. Like a typical carnivore I was skeptical - however it was admittedly delicious. Enrico Crippa was the chef and he has pioneered growing and picking ingredients at the height of their freshness. Here’s a list of all of his ingredients. At the time I thought it was ludicrous that a salad had its own invitation but my wife kept it. His genius for this concept really did stick with me.

@fchralph Years ago, I knew the late Bill Mollison (Permaculture). I saw him make the balcony of an urban high-rise unit in South Korea self-sustaining. Including protein in the form of water snails and fish.

That’s incredible. I would love to do something like that. Joost Bakker and that house that he made near Fed Square had barramundi, mussels and yabbies that they would supply for themselves and visitors to the onsite restaurant. I love stuff like this. I’m gonna look up Bill Mollison now!

@sandylanceley My only gripe is that since 9-11 you can’t stand on top of the politicians head like the original architect intended.

I quite like our parliament, and I’m not typically a lover of all modernist architecture. It’s tasteful and interesting.

@platypusWarby @MarkoMatvikov It will create a speculative recursive loop because it will be tax free treatment of that asset, will encourage people to improve stay for a bit and move on.

@MarkoMatvikov @fchralph But it’s only worth what someone is willing to pay

“Channel all wealth into the family home” “Done” “Now tax the principal place of residence”

Yes. I think this will be the new Australian dream. And honestly, it’s probably a good thing. Australian negative gearing did skew the market in a myriad of ways that created dog shit housing stock. The upper end of the market will instead channel improvements to the PPOR. I was stunned when I saw the price of luxury housing in NZ - it’s a bubble created by a similar tax style treatment. Next 5 - 7 years will be a good time to own quality housing I suppose. Will also be a good time to be a property developer of new housing in the inner cbd.

@fchralph Funny you say that - I was just telling my wife (with whom I’m always discussing the next play and future plans) that this budget means we’ll just sink more into the family home moving forward.

@TerenceMcCart14 Same architect and same era!

@fchralph Yes it does stand out from other buildings in the vicinity…I also particularly like the Melbourne Terrace apartments near the Queen Vic….

We ate most of the basil but here is a smaller leaf. COMPARE THE PEAR

I still think this idea is really cool. And I also think that as robotics and AI flattens the expense for adoption and maintenance, lots of neighbourhoods could create a co-op overseen by one or two people and then maintained by something like an Optimus. Imagine growing fresh vegetables and herbs, like Pak Choy, basil, leafy greens - and supplying it at a discounted rate to local citizens. People could approach their local council and have an allocated part of a car park allotted to them for neighbourhood food production. Or government grants for schools where children could learn vertical farming and robotics. One shipping container could provide enough leafy green food for 200 students per year. Food security and food quality would increase substantially. And that’s where I see this going in the next 3-5 years.
