Good to see my lizard friends still doing well in my backyard, hadnโ€™t heard from him in a few weeks. He went in the garage to do some โ€ฆ thing.

Lilโ€™ bird buddies still around as well and still very curious about me every time I come out. Set up my dogs outside watering bowl that he never uses as a bird bath and Iโ€™m seeing lots of these blackbirds and native pigeons using it to splash around in.

Also planted some native flowers I had seeds for in some boxes around the yard to help encourage some more bugs to come visit.

Do not confront them. They will eat you alive.

I should go out tonight. I'm all about basic white girls lol

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 7 months ago

Compounded with the St Kilda festival.

I decided not to go out today due to all of that.

Was tired too so asked my friend if we could meet up next week instead.

Got last minute tickets to Swift last night. Great show but my god the noise of 96k people screaming. My ears got blasted.

Bit of a crowd crush outside the ground after the show but other than that, it was all pretty orderly for that many people.

I'm glad you had a good time.

[-] bananafungus@aussie.zone 8 points 7 months ago

Off to an open house and then it's onto to some hiking! Keen to see what my fitness levels look like, doc said I might still experience some issues, but he was happy to give me the approval to get back to it.

Just finished up dinner and trying to avoid going home. I can just hear the TS gig from my apartment and given how much time I've spent trying to get a ticket it just feels like I'm being taunted ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜ญ

Grab a glass of wine, sit by an open window and enjoy what you can. ๐Ÿค—

House this morning was shit, tiny tiny bedrooms (have a hilarious pic of the housemate with their arms out stretched almost touching two walls at once), mould in both bathrooms that had definitely made it's way deep into everything, and extremely old appliances (not overly a deal breaker but you just know it's probably going to break now you're the tenant).

On a better note, the hike went fantastic, just a little sore in my feet!

I have been fart bombed by an impudent male. This means war!

Excellent! I believe lunch will involve kimchi

My partner hits me with a drive by sometimes, so sometimes I'll walk into the study, give him a kiss, and leave him a gift in kind haha

[-] imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 6 points 7 months ago

I went to a short course about the local wildlife and birds this morning. Was daunting (I have been in an introvert hole lately) but was really interesting and the people were nice too. Now celebrating with a late lunch in the sun ๐ŸŒž

[-] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 6 points 7 months ago

Another rest day. Nearly better and have to be sure not to cause relapses.

I have not watched lotr or the hobbit in 4 weeks. ๐Ÿ˜‚ maybe 10 minutes

[-] Catfish@aussie.zone 6 points 7 months ago

I believe I can say with all honesty until the previous 5 minutes I have never contemplated the logistics of shagging on back of a moose

Hit 3 personal bests at the gym today so in celebration, I'm doing nothing but sitting in bed reading and playing with Gibson.

And maybe some video games and guitar later.

[-] DolphinLundgrin@aussie.zone 5 points 7 months ago

Is your guitar also a Gibson?

[-] Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

It is!!! But its their budget brand they call Epiphone.

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 6 points 7 months ago

My first ever Vietnamese coffee

And oh boy was I mistaken. I thought it would be a delicate over sweet little coffee but oh no it's a punch to the head. Anyway I'm gonna be awake all night ladies and gentlemen. ๐Ÿ‘€

I also had a bath tub of delicious beef pho

The man had sweet and sour pork

Today's attempt at scones with jam and cream was much more successful than yesterday. No cheese or chives in evidence.

I'm in that bored and boring lull , the time when I;m still not well and my brain is now numb from not doing anyfing and sleeplessnessless

So I'm rewatching the Fargo series. Oh ya.

and it's making me wonder how dumb people really are , and that dumb people get promoted because it's dumb all the way up

anyhoo, I was trained in the sciences to analyse data in such a way that all data had to fit the hypothesis /narrative as well as fit known facts, no data left out

seem to me most those cops in the show don't get that training

and it's hard to see where dumb and sexist are two different things

[-] SituationCake@aussie.zone 5 points 7 months ago

Love Fargo, really great show. As a subjective empirical observation, I can confirm yes, there really are people that are that dumb, and yes they regularly get promoted. And yes, there are people who are so sexist (or homophobic, racist, or all three) that they would rather agree with and promote someone dumb than compromise a millimetre of their bigotry. The writing in fictionalshows like Fargo is so brilliant because it can highlight these traits by allowing them to run free in absurdist criminal storylines. The best fiction is always a keen observation of the truth of the human condition.

Devilled chicken on rice for din dins. My lovely neighbour gave me a whole shopping bag of beeyoutiful beefsteak tomatoes, so some of these will be fritters tomorrow. Draining the cut slices overnight in the fridge so batter won't be soggy. Having one in salad tonight with lettuce.

Still cleaning up the mess from the storms. Still no power either. I just want a nice relaxing weekend dammit

[-] wscholermann@aussie.zone 4 points 7 months ago

People at the gym with terrible form yet nonetheless look a million times better than I do

Irritates me.

[-] SituationCake@aussie.zone 4 points 7 months ago

This asbestos mulch situation is pretty awful. I suspect itโ€™s no accident to have that many affected sites/batches of mulch. Someone has been dumping asbestos into the mulch process to avoid paying the proper fees to dispose of it? I hope itโ€™s investigated thoroughly. Sadly the environmental laws in aus are weak and poorly enforced.
