Heading down the bellarine today. Left the chillo seedlings on the heat mat outside since Sat. but I'm expecting some loss after that coldish snap :( With any luck a few made it.
Cleaning out my laundry. Feels kinda good.

Got anything on board that can help one recover from a food coma?

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did speak out despite not being a trade unionist because I know the next lines.
There's a rally in support of the CFMEU today at 10:30-11, starting from the Victorian Trades Hall. You don't have to be a member of the CFMEU or any union to rock up in support (though you should join a union).
I mean unions are great... but I'm not sure about supporting CFMEU - at least without serious reform
The CFMEU is being ripped apart based on claims that the police never investigated, that never saw a court, and in such a way that suspends the rights of workers within the union. Even if the claims are all true, it's massive overreach that deals very direct damage to democracy and workers rights in this country.
Other non-CFMEU unions are also turning out in solidarity. This is about all our rights.
Everything I've read says it starts at 11 at Trades Hall. (I believe AMWU members are separately meeting at their office at 10.30 before moving to Trades Hall for 11.)
A good day for some solidarity.
Etymology Time:
Fajita, Fa**ot, and Fascism/Fascist - all come from Latin fasces, just meaning bundle or group
I edited the bundle of sticks word because it is a slur these days :(
Not to mention the Yorkshire dish of f*ggots in gravy. Not what you think it is.
