Melbourne

Heading down the bellarine today. Left the chillo seedlings on the heat mat outside since Sat. but I'm expecting some loss after that coldish snap :( With any luck a few made it.

Cleaning out my laundry. Feels kinda good.

Melonball on a warm-ish day going down a treat. I purchased this melonball as it was on sale and regular sliced watermelon was not. It's sweeter, tastier, and you get more fruit from it because the skin is pretty thin.

Person on public transport was playing music on phone at full blast. Then looked up and started loudly yelling at passengers. Luckily got off after a few stops. I’m used to occasionally seeing this kind of thing, but today I wondered, does the mentally ill person know they are mentally ill? Are they aware they are frightening others, including kids. What are they feeling when they do these things? I guess whatever is in their heads is logical. I hope to never experience it.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did speak out despite not being a trade unionist because I know the next lines.

There's a rally in support of the CFMEU today at 10:30-11, starting from the Victorian Trades Hall. You don't have to be a member of the CFMEU or any union to rock up in support (though you should join a union).

Etymology Time:

Fajita, Fa**ot, and Fascism/Fascist - all come from Latin fasces, just meaning bundle or group

I edited the bundle of sticks word because it is a slur these days :(

The union rally is absolutely massive. I think they are heading to Flagstaff Gardens along La Trobe.
