RIP Gippy... Forever broken and tormented

Traveling out to Traralgon later on today. Trains are disrupted between Traralgon and Bairnsdale due to bushfire activity which is really hard to process when its pissing down in the outer south east.

I mean, if it weren’t for the potential loss of life I’d be making a joke about the fire doing billions of dollars of improvement to the area. Seriously. It’s pretty, but it’s a shithole.

The towns are shit, the people are meh...but the area is absolutely gorgeous.

I do feel bad for the residents, cause they're either on fire or flooded.

Oh crap. That’s devastating. I hope everyone is able to evacuate. Australia is terrifying
