This is simply amazing...The incredible possibility of perennial crops... saving the loss of topsoil. Kangaroo grass has massive root systems to hold the soil and draw up water. Even in dry areas, seasonal rain is enough. The advantages are endless. Consider indigenous farming. https://t.co/M3IgPz6h0E

Very sad to see the barrage of lawsuits claiming 'business poor', yet ignoring the overseas evidence of what happens in pandemic times when businesses given 'thumbs up' too swiftly. The law's not fashioned to acknowledge the extreme conditions of a pandemic. The law doesn't fit.

Love this p.180 quote - “Sensei, it is my belief that in such troubled times as these, artists must learn to value something more tangible than those pleasurable things that disappear with the morning light." https://t.co/TDOil9u3Rs pic.twitter.com/DaAP6p1hZK

I always thought that the fireman's spiral was for shimmying down fast (via the rails) when called out to a fire. An interesting one... https://t.co/SHhr3PXANG

100 year old prophecy? Artist? But an answer is elusive. All I could find was: 'At the end of the 19th century, postcards drawn by various European artists predicting scenes from the future were hidden inside cigarette packs and chocolate boxes.' https://t.co/IZtlq4X8Ai https://t.co/j65JoRQ5QO

I think this is good news... People working...construction happening...no grey storm clouds and not too cold... But I am more drawn to the image's foreground - lone worker's yellow helmet, on the 'ground', meditating in some dreamland... https://t.co/QrffBr64e2

Helicopters...There seems to be a significant influx of helicopters trolling my Mornington Peninsula lately...More than a little unsettling...(Image taken moments ago)...Yet I thought the drones and helicopters were not to be out and about till this weekend's AFL grand final... pic.twitter.com/rxcHZwLknu

Somehow, this version of 'slow post' looks so romantic. A few weeks ago, received notification that Australia Post would be delivering only twice a week...I am quite certain that claim has been bent to once a week...at best...Mail from a few km away takes days to be delivered... https://t.co/of6r31dbuN

Twitter 2020 is fast becoming 'the voice of the people'. If politicians really want to get in touch with the people - their mood, their context, their issues + challenges - then it would be advantagous to scroll the Twitter universe regularly. But maybe one glance + they hide...
