@Nonog I live and work in Australia (on the #unceded land of the original #DjaDjaWurrung inhabitants) and here, ANYONE with a #PhD (or other #doctorate) can use the title #Doctor. It's also used by professionals without a doctorate: chiropractors, veterinarians, optometrists, dentists, osteopaths, and podiatrists amongst others. The only protected title for a medical practitioner here is medical practitioner. And somehow, we manage to get by. The #nurses should be able to call themselves Dr.

A very proud and humbling moment for me today... Thanks to Nalderun Education Aboriginal Corporation for so much learning and love #Reconciliation #DjaDjaWurrung #Djaara

Caring for country and people: Victorian yabby farm first step in ambitious Indigenous agriculture venture.
Can’t wait for this to start up. Yabbies from a clean water source are so yummy.
Also want to get my hands on some kangaroo grass flour to play with.
Great idea.

Gone of the days of ‘functionality only’ in public spaces. Things are changing! And they’re not simply being built ‘fit for for purpose’, only.

I love how councils and cites are including creative and thought provoking designs to public amenities such as these park seats.

The top two (playing cards) were observed throughout central #Bendigo (#DjaDjaWurrung)#Australia during my visit last week and the bottom two flowing seats, today in #collingwood #melbourne (#Naarn).

I love them both!

I believe both are as functional as intended, albeit for a lazy kick-back kinda way in the case of those in Collingwood.

They’re beaut!

Hi everyone, I guess I should write an #introduction post too!

I live in #bendigo on #djadjawurrung country. I’m a #software engineer, and I love learning about communication through #programming! Fixated on #rustlang at the moment.

I got an #ADHD dx a few years ago which explained a lot, especially the hobbies I couldn’t seem to devote enough time to: #photography, #piano, #baking, #coffee, etc.

I love #Jesus, he’s awesome. #church and #christians often suck & hurt people, but He never will.

#Introduction
I'm Dino Cevolatti (he/him/they/them): Partner, Father, Brother, Friend, Teacher, Learner, Listener, Guitarist, Role-player

I'm a Learning Specialist, Head of Science and Teacher of Physics, and Science at Castlemaine Secondary College in Victoria on
Dja Dja Wurrung (Djaara) Country

I listen to, play and record a range of mostly instrumental, atmospheric improvisational guitar music including with my band Make-Shift

I spend a lot of time listening to and watching nature including Birds, Butterflies, Clouds, Trees, Wildflowers, and Rocks

I am often obsessed with fantasy/sci-fi/role-playing games (e.g., D&D)

I hope for a more sustainable, equitable, and inclusive society

I will post mostly about;
