@ajsadauskas @jaystephens Ta, interesting. I vaguely recall some of that, but your helpful toot defo provided more info than i knew.

I think something like this is why i feel, & tbh remain, so archly cynical... If Straya, & frankly the rest of the world, was genuinely honestly doing all the serious shit needed NOW to decarbonise & ameliorate, then seeking engineering solutions in flood zones like this would be ok. Knowing though that we & most others are totes NOT seriously addressing the crisis, fuels [boom tish] my severe pessimism, coz eg, engineering designs need engineering assumptions [in this case including expected heights & frequency of floods]. Such assumptions necessarily must be predicated on a certain "steady state" belief [plus safety margins thrown in]. That's all fine, IF we had reason to trust such assumptions. I do NOT trust them, simply coz there IS no steady state; humans are continuing to add more & more CO2 & CH4 to Gaia's atmosphere, thus more & more raising the enthalpy, ergo the heating energy, ergo... yada yada.

@feather1952 Paul has mixed feelings, but i don't; i feel quite clear on this. IMO we are federally, governmentally, little more than mega-greenwashing climate-criminals, & absolutely do not deserve to host this. Given ofc my opinion counts for nothing, & we prolly will host it, coz this world just rewards abject shitfuckery, i do hope at least that ALL OS attendees make official public statements vigorously condemning us. This fraudulent govt [& predecessor] deserves excoriating opprobrium, not praise.

@Old_IT_geek Well...

Is Peter Dutton going to be the first work from home prime minister

...no, ofc not.

To be a work from home prime minister, one first has to be a prime minister.

Never shall it be.

@joannejacobs Straya will remain fucked, & on the down slope to ever increasing fuckedness, until a large majority of citizens stop being selfish, myopic, & short-term, & lift their gaze, then their aspirations, then their political demands.

@david_reid I do not fear a balanced parlie, i want one. What i do fear is the sorts of creeps &/or idiots who promulgate this FUD.
