Last week, we protested the LNP’s cruel decision to ban rough sleepers from public parks. Homelessness is a consequence of governments failing our community. #homelessness #housingcrisis #auspol #votegreens #remah4moreton #brisbane

if you're the kind of Australian who's interested in having a physical street atlas for the current year - be warned, UBD Gregory's is shutting down.
Rumor is Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth will get one more edition in August[?], but for everywhere else (seemingly including Melbourne and Tasmania), what's on shelves is probably the final edition.
now please excuse me while i tag spam
The publicity videos for the #Brisbane #VictoriaPark #Stadium are so slick and so many people seem so well-briefed with details, it's almost as if the whole thing was a fait accompli before the "review", in fact it's almost as if the whole thing was fait accompli before the #QldPol election.
A giant, wonderful park will become nothing more than the setting for a stadium, and a privatised formerly-public space whenever convenience requires.
@dbdean the only responsible thing to do is travel to #Brisbane and fix up the #Blockbuster so it matches the Map POI. #OpenStreetMaps
I think I found one of the older #openstreetmap POIs in #brisbane. 14 years since the last edit! Something tells me it probably isn't correct anymore either. https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1245165652
Because god forbid inner city #Brisbane be allowed to have a nice park, that's JUST a green space. Now private sector developers will eat the entire thing (they're being very quiet about the residential development all the plans featured previously), it'll have constant events (to make it pay its way for the developers), closures to public access because of events, constant noise.
Disaster.
Breaking News: #Queensland premier David #Crisafulli has #broken an #electionpromise and announced a controversial new #Olympic #stadium will be built in #Brisbane #auspol
I'll be glad the day they stop holding the Olympics, a massive waste of money and bribery.

I haven't played this PS4 in a long time and I feel like it might be time to say goodbye. If anyone can offer it a good home around #Brisbane North Side or willing to pay postage then let me know. I could drop it around if close enough to us in Everton Park.
The controllers have seen slightly better days and it seems to need to be stood up on its side or the optical drive plays up a bit, but it still all works (just tested it out). BYO HDMI cable.
Anyway if someone on here would really get good use out of it and would love to play through the games then I'd rather it go to them than a random on Facebook Marketplace or something. Let me know.
[EDIT: It looks like we've found a taker. Thanks everyone! ]

TL;DR: Council instructs Brisbane police to hassle people sleeping rough. Police refuse. Good stuff.
Hey #Brisbane #IoT folk i have a client for whom I’ve designed aquaculture sensor platforms (target market is legal ). He’s seeking a freelance frontend-but-fullstackish-and-iot-savvy person to work on the server-side customer interface. Prefers to meet f2f so Brisbane area for preference. Would consider other AU states.
I tried the new smart ticketing system rolling out on Brisbane buses this morning with the “Express Transit Card” setting for the Apple Watch. This involves just holding your watch (or phone) near the reader once you set it up. It worked!! Very convenient and one less card I need to carry around is a win

Be amazing today! But first, coffee!

Love and solidarity from antifascists in #Brisbane with the Muslim community on the sixth anniversary of the terrorist attack by an #Australian neo-Nazi on #Christchurch mosques. Our hearts are with all survivors and the loved ones of the martyrs. We refuse to let #Australia forget that our country radicalised and exported the terrorist.
We are living in a dangerous time where #antifascist, anti-genocide #activism and expression is criminalised, and our Arab...
