The Comedy Festival Is Almost Here!
#Canberra
I might have to go for a walk this afternoon. It seems that the copy of the #Bofuri LN Volume 2 I ordered arrived at #ImpactComics in #Canberra.
And I wouldn’t want it to feel lonely or abandoned, that’s no way to treat a book…
Volume 1 review here: https://piratesobg.wordpress.com/2025/12/24/bofuri-volume-1-by-yuumikan/
OK, so apparently Dendy #Canberra will be having #IMAX screenings of #Interstellar soon, a film I liked better when it was #TheBlackHole… https://piratesobg.wordpress.com/2016/09/11/interstellar-2014/
(Yeah, that’s a cheap shot, and I acknowledged that in the blog post, but falling asleep in an IMAX cinema is an embarrassment I’m not willing to risk)
Re - Survey and an event.
I have been reading about the Canberra Alliance for Participatory Democracy (CAPaD). There's so much going on around town to engage with politics at all levels. And improving our representation and better outcomes. 💪
In case of interest / action - sharing links to a survey with opportunity to vote on the actions Ken Behrens would like our reps to focus on. Or there's scope to add own ideas.
Also, there's a community event on 8 March to land on a couple of priorities for 2026.

Top of the next hill and there are 3 up here.
Not a great photo, but proof that ‘Operation I Might Visit Some Kangaroos Tomorrow Morning’ was a success.
Also, hello Crace!
@treleanor there was an email newsletter from her with a little more detail:
“We moved a vote which will now see the R2 and R3 reinstated out towards Kippax, Spence and Fraser and the R4 and R5 frequencies improved.
We still won't see these changes until around Term 3 this year. That's why we need your help to keep the pressure on Labor and make sure they follow through on the promise they've made today.”

ACT cops finally admit they overstepped in seizing posters and shutting down a gig at Dissent bar.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was evacuated from The Lodge in Canberra after a security alert, with federal police confirming no ongoing threat following a thorough search. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/world/australian-pm-albanese-evacuated-security-threat-w7rsu2qe?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #AnthonyAlbanese #AustraliaNews #Canberra #SecurityAlert #WorldNews
Power out for us & neighbours in Palmerston. #Canberra
@backupbear @shlee Yeah, believe it after it’s built and not before.
I mean, granted, Australia CAN do decent transport infrastructure…eventually…sometimes. The light rail in #Canberra is great, and will be even better once they finish extending it south. But that’s years off still…
Someone decided he wanted a share of our picnic lunch.

Social catch-up, Movie screening, then Q&A with the creators.
Dissent Bar #Canberra (yes - that bar)
Tonight! 24 Feb
From 1700hrs for pre-movie drinkies. Movie kicks off at 1900hrs.
It’s strange. As a paramedic for 18 years I never felt the need to punish or assault a person who caused harm to another person*.
So I have difficulty understanding why the police should consider it permissible for them to.
Oh, I know why it’s because #ACAB
*including when they assaulted me.
