@Brian you're in South Australia, right? It's rough down there right now, I hope your AC is up to the task! It was bad enough yesterday here in Brisbane, and we only had to deal with 35*!
Looks like we've got some summer still to go though.

@tody really moving. Thanks for sharing.

@tody Very sobering. Thank you.

In light of all of the heavy things that seem to be circling around the world these days I'd like to counter with a fun fact:
In Oregon, where i live, wetland management relies on strategically placed beaver dams at various times and locations.
To get the cooperation of the furry builders the local agencies responsible will send workers out to build purposefully shitty (aesthetically and functionally) dams.
Once built the local beavers see them, think "absolutely fucking not!", tear them down, and build proper dams in their place

Don’t make the mistake I did and visit the town Beaverton thinking this is where all the furry builders live. I, in fact, did not see any beavers. Though I did gulp my share of great beers. Cheers and thanks for sharing @GraemeE need to make my way out there again

Loads of good mountain biking and fishing nearby…also, to stay topical…there certainly are beavers in Beaverton. I had to walk my wife and kid down to the local creek to prove it. Lucky for me, the wildlife obliged. Lol. She still doesn’t believe I catch fish though.
