You can literally fold the pram and hold your child.

Those spots are there so we are safe and out of the way. So we are able to get emergency help if needed via the emergency assistance button. So we don’t slide down the middle of the train or slam into people if it comes to a sudden stop.

I can not just fold my chair and get out of it. I don’t have the privilege or ability to do that. It is not a pram parking spot, the symbol on the floor and walls is not of a pram, it’s of the universal symbol for people with disabilities.

Wild how people will still do this when there is literally a sign stating that you will be fined if you don’t give up the spot. If your baby has mobility, if you have mobility; your pram was literally made to be folded and compacted. Please DO IT when the train is full and people with mobility aids are forced into spots that aren’t safe.

Fuck you. I should not have to be unsafe so you don’t have to fold a pram and hold your child.

Hello! This is just a quick first post featuring this pop up card of Flinders St Station by Colorpop cards.

This is one of my favourite buildings in Melbourne, and is the hub for the metro train network.

✨️💚❤️💙 3x human public transport in Australia! 💙❤️💚✨️

We have the famous XPT that runs from Sydney to Melbourne, Melbourne to Sydney, Sydney to Brisbane and so many more! We also have the Light Rail, those lil' red trams you'd see down in Sydney, and the oh-so iconic Melbourne Tram you'd see skiddlin' thru' the urban areas! ✨️

Which human Public Transport is your favourite? Feel free to tell us in the comments! ✨️🗣📣💬✨️

Fellas, just remember to never:

Set fire to your hair

Poke a stick at a grizzly bear

Eat medicine that's out of date

Use your private parts as piranha bait

Get your toast out with a fork

Do your own electrical work

Teach yourself how to fly

Eat a two-week old unrefrigerated pie

Invite a psycho killer inside

Scratch a drug dealer's brand new ride

Take your helmet off in outer space

Use a clothes dryer as a hiding place

Keep a rattlesnake as a pet

Sell both your kidneys on the internet

Eat a tube of superglue

Wonder what that red button would do

Dress up like a moose during hunting season

Disturb a nest of wasps for no good reason

Stand on the edge of a train station platform

Drive around the boom gates at a level crossing

Run across the tracks between the platforms

When you're in a train station and you feel the ground rumbling beneath your feet. That's the trains purring :)
