Sydney's newest architectural showstopper is its historic train station, which reopens as a modern rail hub after a A$1 billion renovation https://t.co/Al7KOMVM76

@Asher_Wolf Ditto. My account has been locked (after 10 failed attempts) multiple times now. I’m just leaving it locked till I need it. Short of changing my email address that’s about all I can do.

Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space. - Douglas Adam’s.

@deniseshrivell Hitting the golf ball more than 50m with 6 handicap seems to be a prerequisite to being president. 🤔

@deniseshrivell @cheryl_kernot Where is Australia in this wheel you think?

Ministers can no longer deny access to freedom of information documents simply because the responsible minister has left office.

As @isreinecke asks, what secrets can now be unearthed?

Meanwhile in #australia

[Fascinating @fasc1nate]

In 2010, a nineteen year old Australian man named Sam Ballard spent an evening drinking with his friends in the back garden, when a slug came to their attention.

Being young and dumb and a bit inebriated, one of them suggested, as a dare, that Sam swallow the slug, which he did.

Some time later Sam started to complain of aches and pains and informed his parents of his foolhardy act, which they dismissed as irrelevant.

The sad truth is that the slug was carrying Rat Lungworm disease, a parasite called Angiostronjilus. Deposited in the faeces of an infected rat the slug picked it up and finally passed to the unfortunate man.

The parasite worked its way through its host’s system, finding its way to the brain and causing an inflammation that induced a coma lasting over 400 days.

On waking, he was completely paralyzed and was reliant on round-the-clock care in order to function. He finally succumbed to his condition and passed away in 2018.

Shout to those that hate coriander on this international day of hating coriander. I’m sorry for your loss in the genetic lottery that balances deliciousness with soap.

One of the main reasons I prefer my traditional fossil fuel powered vehicle is that it isn’t at risk of spontaneously combusting 👇

@gunsnrosesgirl3 It’s amazing that it hasnt already been done. The basis of most groundbreaking innovations.

So aliens fly across the galaxy in super advanced spacecraft navigating black holes, planets, suns and other space phenomena and then they…checks notes….crash on earth. Makes for a good case of regular stops when travelling 🤷‍♂️ #UFOHearing

The Barbie movie is coming out and I compared the design of the pink Barbie car with current vehicle design standards.

It turns out the Barbie car is significantly out of compliance. 1/8
