Currently on the #goldcoast for #aussies surf life-saving 2025. Stopped to look at the local skatepark and had the privilege to watch Chloe Covell practise for the upcoming #xgames. Suffered an embarrassing dad moment when my daughter almost collided on her roller blades nytimes.com/2025/03/30/style/t

The New York Times · Tony Hawk Hopes Enthusiasm for Vert Skating Can Bring it Back to OlympicsBy Lindsey Adler

Almost 6 minutes to cross one intersection, near a school. I told my local representatives about this. They don't give a fuck. They drive cars. Almost everybody here drives cars and will drive cars, because the other options suck. It starts with land zoning, not building footpaths, car parking minimums, and ends with traffic light programming and a motorway through koala habitat.

As the #CoomeraConnector / #SecondM1 motorway duplication project in Gold Coast is nearing partial opening later this year, the "find out" phase of FAFO has started. Local councillors and state MPs, who pushed for the new road are now doubling down and requesting even more hundreds of millions $ to be spent on extending it past Coomera, to Yawalpah Rd, and widening a local Helensvale Rd, or else we will have "trafic chaos", "gridlock", "bedlam" and "ruin".

Riding my bike to work first time after tropical cyclone Alfred. Footpaths, which generally are poorly maintained in Gold Coast, are now also blocked in places by broken branches. The side of the road, where a footpath has been missing for 20 years (this road is an only access to 2000+ homes), is blocked by fallen trees in some places.

Bonus: an Audi running a red light.

So needing a laugh & to get out of the dry heat went to former prison #Pentridge cinema “tightarse Tuesday” - cheap tix - enjoyed seeing Getting Square update 20 years on: SPIT
Also the feckin strine language (Book series written by Chris Nyst about #goldcoast qld crims and cops) and awkward dancing.

Still raining in northern Gold Coast. We lost electricity for 20 hours. Some people are without electricity since Wednesday. Mobile internet is still not working. Water level in the nearby pond is higher than usual. Some broken tree branches. No public transport tomorrow.
