Thrown under the bus for allegations? Honest question, do you know more about this than what the media has published?
- Comment on ‘Don’t burn your bridges’: Shoebridge warns Ukrainian community over military aid 1 week ago:
A few days ago the Greens were claiming their biggest rise in membership on record after David’s election. They have weathered worse than this current run of ‘news’. Hopefully they can turn up the pressure on Labor which is what Labor, Murdoch, Gina et al are actually afraid of.

They may have substance while not being criminal.

- Comment on Max Chandler-Mather pitches Mamdani-style $25bn plan to nationalise 200 Coles and Woolworths supermarkets 2 weeks ago:
Looks like Shoebridge is supportive so I guess it just needs to go to the members and then on to the reps. No need for Max to run again.

- Comment on Missing teenager Lily Hooper found dead, as family initially given wrong information 2 months ago:
Why is this national news? Why is federal parliament standing for a minutes silence? I don’t have free to air, was the search for this person been a big media deal for the past week? That news story kept escalating from local police, to NSW Premier, to federal parliament and the Prime Minister. What is going on?
- Comment on Reinvesting my super in Timtams 2 months ago:
Similar. I’ve only had them a few times when I bought them as a gift for my partner. We don’t buy timtams or milk chocolate that often. I don’t know if I’d better able to tell them apart with a blind taste test. The texture may be slightly different. I’m also confused about the whole timtam fandom, seems to be one of the greatest marketing achievements in my lifetime.

If anyone is in town there’s also Social Spending, Not War Spending – Protest outside ALP National Conference.
Adelaide is in the grips of a campaign to stop the state government chopping down trees in the Adelaide Parklands to upgrade an existing shared golf course/parkland for LIV Golf (it’s OK though because they promise not to make the land private…), and also in the eastern parklands for Moto GP. It’s inspired a lot of locals to get active in campaigns and politics for the first time.

- Comment on Australian World Cup referee Shaun Evans responds to accusations he used a hate symbol at World Cup 4 months ago:
There was a PSA in the 70s or 80s where the people in the the ads would flash the OK symbol at each other after doing something, like just helping someone carry their groceries or something like that. I don’t think it’s the do the right thing PSAs. Does anyone remember something like this and what it was for?

- Comment on Do not chase the pigeons 4 months ago:
You’re welcome. This poster was on the back of a phone box in Rundle Mall. I’m sure the poster is a bit of fun street art and not something the council put up.
Interestingly each year about 10,000 to 12,000 tree martins roost in a small group of trees in Rundle Mall over Summer/Autumn. I thought they’d have migrated elswhere by now but they are still around. It’s an amazing sight to walk under the trees in the middle of a city pedestrian mall, and see thousands of little birds chilling out at night. If you search Adelaide tree martins there’s a few photos and videos out there.
