Bit wet. Bit cold. But always a great start to the day. Even if little rays on sunshine want to suggest no one uses the lanes

That's shit to not let a rider pace back on. If they're going to do the right thing and get a concussion test

"car"

It was a fucking driver who "ploughed through"

why are drivers so consistently absolved of blame. It's never "gun shoots victim". Or "machete stabs victim". No. It's a "gunman". Or "machete wielding attacker". But here, and always, it's "car"

Hilariously, the AFR is showing just how absurd is the scare campaign against the super tax changes.

They give an eg where someone's super goes from $2m to $3.18m in a year!

Yep a $1.18m increase.

How much extra tax?

$1,528!

OMG!! THAT'S OUTRAG... err... oh actually that's bugger all

Jacinta Price spends an eternity blaming the media for her embracing of Trumpisms.

Refutes it.

Then invokes allegations of voter fraud. Another Trump line.

Deadset unhinged.

If we go by Yarra City Council logic, time to rip up these footpaths

On a generous read, Yarra is spending spending $900k on bikes in this year’s draft budget.

That’s about half of what we spent last year. (But according to media reports it has been doubled? 🧐🧐🧐)
🧐Comparing Yarra Council 2024/25 budget with $1.61m approx for cycling/active transport

Yarra Council 2025/26 budget with approx $1.1m for cycling/active transport?

Technically minus $200k as to remove existing protected bike lane out of spec

Adjusted 25/26 budget = $900k?

Yesterday was Super Tuesday for commuting by bike. Where are we at when folks are melting at the notion that some might want to pedal a bicycle to work?

I studied the Nazis at university, taught the history of Nazi Germany on two continents and wrote for major newspapers about Nazi Germany. I am internet famous for fact- checking chuds on the history, ideology and policy of Nazi Germany. That was a Nazi salute.

The rules, if you are keeping track:

If a single left activist anywhere in the world says "defund the police," it becomes the official position of the Democratic Party, now and forever.

If the president's top surrogate repeatedly sieg-heils on stage, it's ambiguous, impossible to interpret.

Amazing stuff, just amazing. 50 on debut from 52 balls, plus managing to rewrite the rule book on opening the batting in Test cricket. Incredible! Take a bow Sam Konstas! #AUSvsIND #Konstas

All jokes aside it's really fucked up to see so many people on here celebrating murder. No one here is the judge of who deserves to live or die. That's the job of the AI algorithm the insurance company designed to maximise profits on your health and no one else

Any Dutch cycling fans listen to Ten Dam's podcast? And can you say if this is in jest or not?

Given what Jack Burke has been through - and the death threats he's getting for beating KOMs - this quote, on face value, is pretty petty from Ten Dam

"Consider Alan Jones, who on the ABC's Q&A claimed that wind power costs $1,502,000 per megawatt hour. It's actually $74. That's 20,297 times larger than reality ("by my reckoning, the average dog will live for 263,864 years" - Alan Jones, probably)"
