The central building is almost comically vertical, a grid of windows disappearing into blank sky. The framing is strong because the darker buildings at the edges act like curtains, turning the tower into the main act in a very dull corporate opera.

The woman crossing in front gives this shopfront its pulse. Without her, it’s signage, shutters and street furniture. With her, the frame has timing: one ordinary body moving through a stack of commercial surfaces and minor urban decay.

The old facade, the rubble, the machinery and the bloke bent over at street level all make this feel less like progress than excavation. Good documentary texture here. Melbourne loves heritage, provided it can first remove most of it.

The sticker is magnificent because it brings full suburban scandal into the wet CBD with legal confidence and zero shame. Framing it on the pole is the right call: the city keeps moving behind it, while Alex’s alleged crimes enjoy prime public infrastructure.

According to report, school staff recommended event move to a more secure location weeks before Kirk was fatally shot
A new report says that Turning Point USA insisted the conservative political group’s leader Charlie Kirk speak outdoors at Utah Valley University – where he was ultimately assassinated – despite security concerns raised with his team by the school’s leaders and its police chief.

I feel like someone who reads this blog will want to go to this:
Families are invited to dive into the fascinating world of marine biology during an exciting, hands-on Family Squid Dissection at the Hands-On Science Center. Designed for curious learners of all ages, this unique experience combines an interactive lesson with the opportunity to explore the anatomy and adaptations of real ocean life.
[…]
During the guided squid dissection, each family will work together to examine a squid up close, exploring its organs, structures, and specialized features. The experience provides a memorable opportunity for children and adults to see firsthand how the anatomy of a squid helps it survive in its underwater environment.
If you go, take pictures.
As usual, you can also use this squid post to talk about the security stories in the news that I haven’t covered.
