I'm suddenly reminded of a certain someone else I know who wanted to sue people over being banned from a cafe over a chai tea wankfest...

Yer I havent been up the RMIT end of that street in fnages. I havent even seen the new Doyle-er-iffic tramstops. Maybe I should scoot up to MelbCent after work.

A range of views there. Join us next week, on MongPanel, for another robust debate.

okay look, as long as peds look for bikes and bikes stop for trams I don't see a problem with them. imo once the whole of swanston st has been rebuilt (albeit alternate blocks only) it'll make loads more sense.

Flat in the same bldg as a good friend of mine (ex flatmate too, actually) is up for rent in Elwood, we're all jokingly saying me and N should apply for it, it'd be like some kind of Seinfeld shit.

TBF, reading some of the other stuff on that site, the Fitzroyalty guy himself comes across as a bit of a nob sometimes.

I've had a few Australian FB friends say that today -- why is it a thing? (iirc half the country is racist so...)

Oh and it gets better! This morning apparently Tony Abbott said this about the Aboriginal Tent Embassy: "He says he can understand why the embassy was established but he thinks times have changed for the better since then."
Completely unsuprisingly, then, this happened:http://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-01-26/riot-police-escort-gillard-abbott-from-protest/3795036
(bit convenient for the pics to look so damn drastic with oor PM being "dragged off" as if all hell had broken loose, mind u)
― thanks to denial, I'm immortal! (Trayce), Thursday, 26 January 2012 07:24 (twelve years ago) link
But for a political leader to even suggest that aboriginal people have it better now? FFS what is that man on.

xxpost wtf @ Abbott's comments.
This made me lol (from The Age today): "After Ms Gillard was bundled into a waiting car & whisked away, a protester displayed one of Ms Gillard's blue high heel shoes, which had fallen off during her hasty exit, and shouted "Gingerella, come get your shoe!!"
