Fire protection measures don’t do or mean shit. Nothing will stop a firestorm at full force except not putting anything where that happens.

It’s an Anglo thing, same in Australia

? This is a normal one bed floor plan lol. 800 a week is insane tho.

Me every time I see a development plan put the tallest buildings on the main road.

The fact you can get a two bed in Abbotsford for less than a one bed in Bowen Hills, clearly a worse place to be, is an indictment on Brisbane’s handling of the housing crisis

And they’re excellent suburbs, unlike Bowen Hills 🥲

One week after receiving the Marriner donation, Reece pledged to sell COM’s share of the Regent Theatre if elected. Marriner, which owns the Comedy Theatre, Princess Theatre and Forum Theatre, and operates the Regent,would be a likely potential buyer. @carawaters.bsky.social @adamlcarey.bsky.social

I’m a home owner btw

Wow fuck you lady

MSNBC reports that the backpack found in Central Park, believed to be from the United Healthcare CEO killer, did not contain a gun.

Instead, they found Monopoly money and a jacket.

It’s actually been astonishing watching this wave take over the world, and drawing real political results.

This is the year of YIMBY

Taste. Bill Evans my number 1.

There are very few car trips that cannot be served by Collins St. You cant even turn right into Swanston St ffs.

“Traffic chaos looms” the herald sun reckons. The closure of this part of Flinders St for good is inevitable. It will have no effect on traffic. It’s the busiest pedestrian area in the CBD. The government should quietly never reopen it.

The pure joy of walking in my dense, mixed use, walkable neighbourhood to get a banh mi

Oh fuck, they let go of the Bluey balloon!

A fruit stand on the sidewalk outside Sotheby’s on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Headline reads: "The Sidewalk Fruit Vendor Who Sold a $6.2 Million Banana for 25 Cents." Photo credit: Amir Hamja for The New York Times.

Shah Alam works outside Sotheby’s, shares a basement in the Bronx, and works 12-hour shifts at the fruit stand.

Last Wednesday, he sold a banana that would soon be duct-taped to a wall and auctioned as part of a work of art. When Alam was told the sale price, he began to cry.

I want to be able to block accounts directly from a skeet instead of having to go into their profile

Love how everyone is just insane now

I’ve never been to LA but I know a lot about it. It’s an extremely diverse and misunderstood city and metro area.

Bro you got one foot in the grave already, careful they might put a heritage overlay on you next

This weather fucking sucks, I feel like I’m back in Brisbane

amp.theguardian.com/science/2024... this article helped me understand sorta

I like both ☹️

Doesn’t take a genius to figure this out, so bogged down in bureaucracy they’ve missed the forest for the trees.

The way the tri-state area does things is so wack. Why do you have hundreds of buses that come into the city? Why aren’t those buses going to train stations so people can transfer?

Same scale.
