Plenty of information on mums available in Australia, not so much for dads. The average age for first time mums in 2020 was 29.7, with the largest proportion (38%) between 30-34 years old. Anecdotally, I was a first time dad at 34, and my wife at 36.
Carbonated water is slightly more acidic than still, so just be aware of your teeth and guts if you're drinking heaps of it. Some people take issue with supporting an Israeli owned company, others don't. There's always other brands if that suits you, I know aldi does one called soda king that's interchangeable with Sodastream.
Pretty great so far. We went to the museum today and I picked up a Tesla's Sphere from the gift shop "for the child".
This is the reason that the request for Truth Telling is a fundamental part of the Uluru Statement from the Heart; we need to accept the ill effects of our past on the Aboriginal population, and recognise that colonisation is still happening. Racism has a lot to do with both of those things and it can't be tiptoed around. Yes, it is difficult. Yes, it is absolutely necessary.
What a shock, genuinely one of the most influential Aboriginal artists in the world right now.
Ah yes, the famous Soviet era of the United States. How could I forget?
Yeah cool, here's one good thing we can do to make a positive change but fuck doing it because of the other, completely unrelated thing, right?
Looks like Miller's Batman
Or if you're up in the top end, there's Nawarla Gabarnmung which dates to about 44kya. Some natural rock pillars in the shelter, others modified and others still constructed or relocated.
Why do you feel the need to defend mediocre artist who has demonstrated that he has a complete inability to learn and grow past his horrific behaviour? Hip Hop is littered with abusive, mysoginistic, violent arseholes and each one of them should be called out.
If you're specifically worried about people talking about how Chris Brown is an abuser, but not Eminem, you can rest easy in the knowledge that he has justifiably been criticised for his behaviour for the entirety of his career. The difference is Eminem never swept any of it under the rug, nor did he shy away from speaking about his problems with drugs and mental health, and the harm he caused because of it, specifically to the women around him.
The same cannot be said for abusers like Bambaataa, his defender KRS, NAS, Dre, Puff Daddy, Chris Brown or any of the other countless motherfuckers who use their money and position within the hip hop community to avoid criticism and consequences for their abhorrent behaviour.
With community (specifically fruit & veg) gardens you need to be considerate of what pollutants could be in the soil, especially if the area is prone to flooding. Regrowing native bushland has no such concerns and has the added benefit of providing much needed habitat for native species AND the flood resilience that lawns actually counteract.
All of this land is perfect for rewilding, I hope it doesn't just stay as gigantic, featureless lawnscape.
This song always plays in my head everytime I get a big spike of impostor syndrome
Brisbane gets some cracker light in the winter
Came home for a visit in August, snapped this with my film camera from the hotel balcony.
