Still in Penrith.
Wasn't well enough to go home. Going tomorrow though. Last night I slept 12 hours and my pain levels are much better but I was still exhausted. Got to see Mandi yesterday which was good.
I'll update properly when my eyes don't feel like they're full of sand.
Links now as I've many tabs open

Worst Australian Heat wave on record"Australia has always experienced heat waves, and they are a normal part of most summers. However, the current event affecting much of inland Australia has definitely not been typical." Talk about weather and climate change
Prominent LGBT equality campaigners Kerryn Phelps AM and her wife Jackie Stricker-Phelps have today been announced as Barnardos Australia’s Mother of Year Awards ambassadors. Katter is an arse“A warning to sensitive viewers - this next segment contains Bob Katter.” Two of his candidates in the upcoming election had disgraced themselves by making shameful comments against gay people - Tess Corbett in Victoria and Bernard Gaynor in Queensland.
Following a tumultuous day of outrage against them, both are now no longer contenders for the next election - Corbett stepped down and Gaynor’s membership of the party was suspended. Katter responded: “I don’t know, and I don’t care!”
Didn't expect anything different from him.
Understanding the Pink Triangle "I have a friend who has a tattoo of a black outlined triangle on her wrist. For someone with a love of history, I instantly knew what it stood for. It’s a symbol that traces back to the Nazi concentration camps. A symbol originally used to identify homosexuals as a badge of shame, now reclaimed as an international symbol of gay pride and gay rights. Something that we all as part of the LGBTI community should be aware of, right?"
- I didn't know about the black triangle. I knew about the pink one of course.
I have an idea for an artwork of an upside down black triangle with a lemon tree growing out of it.
