I’m pondering poitin
He’s a dick tater.
when ever there is a big political event that draws all attention evil people like poitin will use the opportunity to do some more evil with out newspapers taking much notice
watch for poitin enemies disappearing and attacks on other nations , maybe some extra fraud
I love the energy but this only makes sense if you read it with the completely wrong alphabet. (poitin is pronounced puch-een)
Hell yeah! Grappa by any other name - still tastes pretty damn good.
But I’m pondering getting weird with it. Like, I have purple peruvian potatoes growing out the back I could base a mash on…
There is an impeccably appointed Mercedes with a large decal of Psyduck on the side doing a circuit of Melbourne.
Behold the Psyduckmobile
I wonder if it’s going to be a bad idea to drink a coffee right now.
🤔
Save it for tomorrow
That would be the logical thing to do.
decaf
I really need to get on to that next week.
Just playing some vintage LPs I got last week, one is an album of movie music by Alfred Newman ( Randy Newman’s father ) and bless me but the album starts with the fanfare of 20th Century Fox, it appears Newman wrote it!! I was not expecting to hear that .
The album also has a booklet with “movie stills”, I like the one of swashbuckling pirate Tyrone Power. 😹
fun fact, he was also the poster boy for MAD magazine :P
the name but not the face 🤓
now I’m playing a Child’s Garden Of Frieberg. The Weird Al of the 50s and 60s. Frieberg parodying Elvis www.youtube.com/watch?v=INt48fr_ZYc
Omg a friend of mine in high school had the Any Requests album and we used to love the John and Marsha song, among others. A great talent.
Last two albums. Segovia plays Bach, maybe I just don’t like his guitar but I prefer Williams or Julian Bream playing Bach.
And the Maya guitar music went in the bin, it sounded like the worst musak.
Anti-gratitude thread.
First world problem. Phone is out of storage, and trying to put photos onto laptop to put onto external hard drive (laptop only has one USB-A port). It’s making the laptop very slow, so can’t do much else on it for the next eleven hours apparently, or unplug my phone. First it said an hour and twenty, now it says 11 hours.
Cold weather means my bones and joints ache a bit more. Bleh
thermal underwear
I’m a dumbass sometimes. Returned and exchanged an item where I thought something was missing and it turns out the piece is embedded into the lid.
🤦♂️
A restful evening after work it was not :(
My Win 11 laptop keeps trying to force me to try ‘New Outlook’ instead of the default Mail app. I’d do it, but currently Mail is an aggregate for multiple email account for my small biz and I can’t risk stuffing them all up migrating the accounts
I have an overtime shift tomorrow.
iphone? Its got an option in settings to offload to icloud the high quality ones. Saved me a ton of storage. thinkin Im gonna need bigger than 128gb next time.
Android! My google photos is full too :(
I hate that my house has no insulation so to feel comfortable you have to have the heater running.
Wimdy 🌬️
a little rain here, not much just enough to wet the place
They had a replay of the world cup final, but with men’s teams (it was only the Euros). England lost to Spain again and I am very happy!

Lips getting a bit too dry for the chapstick to handle so I bought a clear lip gloss… however turns out it’s coconut scented 🤢 The scent is also lowkey burning my lips.
I give up man, all the beauty products seem to stink and hurt. I’d use coconut oil/vaseline/pawpaw but don’t want to be sticking my fingers into pots and touching my mouth. (The cat also loves pawpaw ointment and would try to lick it off)

Lots balms have something like menthol/camphor/mint in them. When your lips are dry or cracked the last thing I need is for them to slathered in spicy ingredients. Why do they put in in there???

Mine seem to hate castor oil too. Stinging and peeling

I found Molton Brown plain lip balm very safe and I am pretty sensitive to lip stuff, having thrown away so many glosses and pencils

Vaseline and a cotton bud is what goes in this house.

Too much hassle
I’ll just deal with it

I found the best ones are those lip balms you get from the honey stalls at markets. Soothing, long lasting and the unflavoured ones aren’t attractive tasting enough to eat (which is my problem!)

@PeelerSheila @melbaboutown Unfortunately, they're going out of business. But, if there's still a Body Shop still open anywhere near you, their hemp honey lip balm works well.
(If there isn't one still open near you, various online stores that also sell them...)
