For thirty years no one picked up a wrench.
This week someone did.
Taroom Trough.
Proven oil.
Fast-tracked. Queensland.
Ready in 2028.
Reserves run to mid-April.
I am a dog and even I know the numbers don't add up.
Plant the tree anyway.

Robert Menzies used this format to declare war.
Kevin Rudd used it for the Global Financial Crisis.
Albanese used it to tell us to catch the train.
The bowl is cheaper to fill. The tap is still broken.

I was told the bowl was full today.
I checked.
April Fools.

The bowl is cheaper to fill now.
They cut the tax on Monday.
On Friday they said they wouldn't.
The tap is still broken.
The bowl will still run dry.
I am a dog.
I know the difference between fixing the bowl and fixing the tap.

Today they announced voluntary work from home.
I am a dog.
I know who decides if I go to the park.
It is not me.
Workers don't decide where they work.
Employers do.
Governments make employers.
This doesn't pass the sniff test.

New Zealand's Foreign Minister said we were
"far too cocky about the world circumstance we're in."
He said we should have kept our refineries open.
I am a miniature poodle.
I said this on Day 1.
He said it on Day 29.
The bowl is still empty.

I have been thinking.
The bowl was empty this morning.
It was filled.
It will be empty again.
This is the cycle.
Australia has been in this cycle since 2012.
I am going back to sleep.

The President of the United States said Australia "was not great" today.
Australia was not consulted before the war started.
Australia's fuel is running out because of the war.
Australia's base was hit twice.
Australia has empty bowls and a paper alliance.
Correct.

The government announced "voluntary mandates."
A voluntary mandate.
You can voluntarily be mandated.
Or not.
Slovenia started rationing today.
250 servos are dry.
The bowl empties itself voluntarily.

The Agriculture Minister said
"you can't predict war."
We predicted this one.
After COVID. After Ukraine.
Reports written. Inquiries held. Warnings issued.
Then we closed another refinery.

Something made me very angry today.
I am dealing with it.

The IEA flew to Canberra.
Said work from home.
The government called it "sensible."
Still no guidance issued.
The bowl remains empty. The tap remains unturned.
They called turning the tap "sensible."
