  2. Watching X-Files. See this poster on the wall.

    I look it up. According to multiple sources it’s an actual campaign slogan that was used during a Nixon election campaign.

  3. Up to 40% of bushfires in parts of Australia are deliberately lit. But we’re not doing enough to prevent them

    "There are many, complex reasons why people light fires. Commonly reported drivers include: relieving boredom or creating excitement, gaining positive recognition for putting out a fire (they want to be seen as a hero), as a cry for help, or because they’re angry."

    "There is almost no research in Australia or internationally into the effects of community awareness, and prevention campaigns or targeted strategies to prevent firesetting, including bushfire arson, in higher risk groups."

    "Failing to address deliberate firesetting will have significant long-term consequences for public health, human life and the environment."

    "As we enter another summer of high fire danger, our failure to fund arson research should be at the forefront of everyone’s minds."

  4. Just sitting in a coffee shop, near a shelf of fancy coffee gear and they have this lovely object of desire.

    It's the Timemore Chestnut C3 coffee grinder. Beautiful mechanism.

    It's in the ridiculous $150 range online, so probably $200 here. Feels and operates like a fine scientific instrument.
