Did Melbourne eat too many baked beans for lunch yesterday? #melbourneweather

RIP to all the trampolines killed during last night's winds.
You were treasured.

On a side note: CONGRATULATIONS TO ANYONE WHO GOT A NEW TRAMPOLINE THIS MORNING!!!#melbourneweather pic.twitter.com/cUQn9niS5W

It's been a tough day out there if you're a wheelie bin in Victoria.

But one receptacle has gotten into the Halloween spirit, rolling down a road in Wallan, around 50km north of Melbourne's CBD, in an incredibly eerie fashion. #melbourneweather #10NewsFirst pic.twitter.com/5fSXKMyIGa

In the western suburbs we're so deprived even the storms are half arsed. #melbourneweather

This is payback for the "wind doesn't work at night" net 2050 bs from the nationals 🙄 #melbourneweather

I’m not too far from the border of metro Melbourne and regional Victoria, I hope @VictoriaPolice don’t fine me if my house ends up in regional Victoria because of #melbourneweather

Beautiful day in Melbourne. Saw a flock of trampolines flying south over the bay. Majestic.

I feel like this wind happening on the day retail opens is some cosmic sign we are idiots and nature is done with our d

space and freedom...

PASSING THOUGHT: Many feel that pandemic-fueled lockdowns spike our freedoms. Some feel that translates as 'no freedom'. But it's the perspective of 'our space' that's been clipped, not our freedom. Kabul's Taliban-threatened residents have no personal space. That's no freedom. https://t.co/jdwHmFCq2g

Dan's out-of-lockdown' news...

PASSING THOUGHT: Dan's 'out-of-lockdown' news...I've the strangest sense of hesitant elation+an awareness of fragile strength...Yes...Victorians have slammed this insidious virus...But let's hope we don't develop too much confidence...The wolf is still right outside the door...

Make sense now? #viclockdown
