Just went to the shops.
People out walking their dogs, walking and running, meeting for coffee outside.
Smoke from the #VicFires is blanketing #Melbourne
I was the only person to #wearaN95mask at all times, both inside the shop and outside.
People are entirely FITH* and they all have #COVIDBrain
*FITH = fcked in the head

Smoke from the fires in the Otways blowing into Melbourne.
Close windows and doors, turn on air filter if you have one.

I don't understand.
It's 2026.
We should be able to manage land better to prevent the devastation caused by bush fires.
I'm tired, so very tired, of watching gutless politicians spewing platitudes instead of taking action to prevent this horror.

#ClimateCrisis #ClimateChange #VicFires - if you don't understand this, you should check that you weren't kicked in the head by a horse, when you were younger! 🙄🥂

I can't imagine how people living in this triangle must be feeling right now 😢 Doesn't matter which way the wind blows it'll be smoky.

I wonder why the firefighting aircraft are still focused on the north side of the Mt Lawson / Walwa fire while the fire front advanced over 20km to the south-east. Maybe the winds have shifted, or protecting property to the west towards Wodonga is a priority.
(green circles = aerial firefighting aircraft operating, large circle = C130 LAT operating, small circles = rotary-wing only)

Ever get the feeling the walls are closing in?
Or that you’re surrounded?
I’m feeling a little like that right now.
My location is the blue circle with a white dot in it on the map.
