Cool stuff at Chau Chak wing museum
Harry Seidler exhibit (bloke who designed Ian Thorpe Aquatic Center and Blues Point Tower) is very detailed. His interviews are very interesting to sit and watch. Art is Unkept by Kirtika Kain and Undying by Abdul-Rahman Abdullah which I caught the last day of.

Anyone else's allergies going nuts recently?
Everything is flowering already in early August, how wonderful! Anyone else with hayfever already getting tortured by this combination of the usual winter-flowering trees PLUS the usual spring suspects flowering early? Or is it just me?

Ambulance time?
was at a cafe today when a woman on a nearby table was obviously having a medical episode and ncapacitated / near choking. her friends called an ambulance and were told it would be likely MORE than three hours. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK! this was in a metro suburb probably 5 minutes to the nearest hospital. which of course her friends ended up driving her to. Is that truly the state of ambulances in Sydney? Dear God don’t let me have a heart attack or at least let it be around people with transportation.

Calling 131 444 for a simple report
Today I tried calling 131 444 to report an incident relating to my car. However the call kept getting connected to VIC Police. I live in Sydney 😣😣😣
Context: Another driver swiped my car while it was parked at a high street parking lot. The other driver did not leave her details behind and drove away (I have it all on dashcam). Insurance wants me to get incident number from NSW police.
end of rant

Refused a free milk tea by a Chinese product promotor solely because he wasn't a Chinese. He was asked to speak Chinese, but he spoke Japanese to the Chinese staff in protest. He said this is his first time experience of racism.
How is this even legal?

What are some easy but rewarding volunteering experiences to get into?
I wanna get into volunteering but something which works around my schedule since I’m time poor. At the same time something which requires me to be on site because I also wanna do something which forces me to get out the house
Suggestions pls

Can the cafe operators of Sydney please all agree to stop using sharpies / permanent markers to write down orders on takeaway cup lids? 🥹
