Parcel Vans were an efficient way to send illicit drugs around Melbourne. After the withdrawal of parcel services, dealers resorted to other methods of distribution.
Metro 5.30pm Update:
Heavy rains across parts of Melbourne this afternoon.
Given our rail infrastructure is not rated to handle any type of weather we're quite surprised there's no major delays, incidents or other shitfuckery.
Good morning Melbourne!
Today (Mar 21) is World Day For Glaciers.
To acknowledge this important event we're offering free travel across our network for glaciers today.
World Day for Glaciers | United Nations
World Day for Glaciers is an opportunity to raise global awareness about the critical role of glaciers, snow and ice in the climate system and the hydrological cycle, and the economic, social and environmental impacts of the impending changes in the Earth’s cryosphere.

KenAnother view of the metro train that I came across that was decorated with warm wood paneling, copper and bronze metals, velvet seats, and brown and tan accents. Such a nice change from the standard look!

Most Tokyo metro trains have a standard modern interior style featuring white and neutral colors and silver/gray metals like aluminum. And then on one occasion I rode a metro train that looked like this: warm wood paneling, copper and bronze metals, red and green velvet seats, and warm brown and tan accents on everything else. It was beautiful!

Riding the Metro in Tokyo. Of course, the trains were always on time and absolutely spotless. I wish public transit in the US was this good.

Imagine getting drunk, deciding to get public transport home and trying to work out why the fuck your bus isn’t moving.
Metro 5.35pm Update:
All lines are running well this afternoon.
This is because we spent most the day scrolling TikTok and completely forgot to organise any fuckups.
Good morning Melbourne!
