Agreed. Without my hobbies I'd fall into a pretty bad rut. Music/guitar/songwriting, disc golf and woodwork/metalwork - they all provide a challenge and meaning. Can provide meaningful time to think things through and ways to creatively process feelings.

"However, researchers found given participants were likely to slightly reduce their reliance on cars, it showed experiencing car-free living, even briefly, could help people break away from automobility."
I think this is an important secondary take away here. Reducing car use is still much better than continuing at current rate. (Similar to eating less meat vs going vegan cold turkey).
Owning a car does come with large sunk-costs tho - so you won't feel the full financial benefit from just reducing car use (still have to pay rego, insurance, maintenance etc.)

Is it weird that i kinda feel sad/disappointed at this uptake, despite being a big fan of EVs? A fucked up war causes oil prices to go up and now everyone's clamouring to consume? Cool

On a similar note - I bought white as well as red reflective tape and stuck them to areas of my bike that made sense. I did the same to my helmet.

But also kinda punk. Promoting de-googling on googles own platform.

Amazing! Thanks!

Sweet! Would love to see if Gang Gangs would uptake artificial hollows as well - they're also quite fussy. Wish there was like a cross section diagram of the log hollow.

100%. Latex for side sleeping is so good.

Yup. I bailed on my YouTube subscription this year and shifted to community radio and bandcamp.

We have a resident blue tongue. Loves the back steps to bask on and hide under.

Totally haha. We hit up the ramen place before the cinema sometimes. It's good. And we now bring earplugs to the hoyts 😆 coz it's fucken loud az.

Haha yeah, the rail duplication followed immediately by the North East link works has been fairly brutal for the outer Hbridgers. But I get more annoyed by frequent track faults and trespassers etc. Can't plan around those and they happen often enough to leave me with trust issues haha.
