Vegan living on Kaurna Country. Science. Ethics. Bushwalking. Loves plants, fungi and animals.

Having lived in both countries for a reasonable time in my life: If I ever had the option to pick, I'd really like to combine Dutch cycling culture with the public space infrastructure of Australia.

I'd love to have a cycling culture in Oz.
Australians really need to let go of the 'exercise' idea of bikes and just use it as transport. As commute. Get comfortable bikes instead of these aerodynamic light spacecrafts. Stop putting lycra on before you go out. Don't drive to the schools or train stations, just cycle there.

The Dutch could really learn by looking at Australian parks and trails. Water fountains everywhere - for humans AND dogs -, free public toilets, free barbeques, with picnic tables and covered gazebos for all to use.

Oh, and the Dutch might have to learn not to vandalise everything in their eyesight. That might help too.

Thank you Dr. King for inspiring many generations of young activists. On this #MLKDay, I encourage us all to listen to the Black community, uplift their voices, celebrate their achievements, and lend support in the ongoing fight for racial justice and equality.

Hello it is me

I am the extreme alt left

I am here to bully you online into accepting ridiculous ideas like:

* Literally everyone deserves a good life
* Universal, unconditional healthcare
* No one should have too much power over anyone else

Not really a resolution but I am planning of doing more sketching this year. At the very least it gets you out in the fresh air.
I love atheists because they choose to be good not out of fear of hell but because it’s the right thing to do.
Dear old Twitter really, really not well today. Heads up to #Mastodon admins...expect the next wave very soon!
#TwitterDown
Yes Twitter...something is very wrong. #twitterdown

@ashleyspencer @ReimanSaara Embracing my autism has been very liberating.

I no longer think I'm a freak... I dealt with a lot of anger towards those who ignored and dismissed the signs for decades and accepted who I am... I finally UNDERSTAND who I am and why I am this way.

I'm unapologetic for my 'quirks' and the way I process things and I refuse to beg for scraps of attention and basic human decency and compassion from others.

Accept me for who I am, or get the fuck out of my life.
