    Art supplies have been obtained . I got 4 tombow calligraphy pens in classic ink colours

      I haven’t seen you post up your calligraphy in awhile now that I think about it.

        I haven’t done any in a while. Just spent too much time sick in bed this year, at least 4 months 😔, and the rest of the year was doing big house cleaning and sorting

    Can we all just bask in the lovely warm feeling that hanson has zero legal recourse now if you refer to her loudly and publicly as a racist

      There really should be more politicians of a working class background representing the interests of ordinary people
 instead we get that. :(

      Also it’s a bit rich for an Aussie to tell anyone to go back where they came from

        It’s because those Aussies don’t see First Nations as actual real people with rights lol

      You gotta stop giving those drug dealers an upfront payment before getting the goods. Especially if they tell you to desposit it via cashapp or PayPal lol.

      Always cash when buying, and no pre-payment lol

      Nah jokes aside that’s fucked up! Like wtf? And the fact they did it on the weekend when they aren’t open is evil. There isn’t an after hours number you could call? Or something you could do via the online portal? Idk I’m sorry

    One of my neighbours has been playing classical music over the last week or two and it’s just so lovely to go out on the balcony and listen.

    Some opera singers, classical instrumentals shame I know the songs but not the names of them.

    source
    • Pilk@aussie.zone ⁚6⁩ ⁚months⁩ ago

      That does sound lovely.

      source
      • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁚6⁩ ⁚months⁩ ago

        It really is so soothing. I think the neighbours playing the classical music might be the two Melbourne famous musicians who live in my building. The lady is a composer and conductor for an orchestra, and the bloke is a semi-well-known jazz sax player. They are so cultured 😭 I’m intimidated lol but they’re extremely down to earth and lovely people tbh

    Second breakfast was a success. Met with friend/colleague from last job and sat in a cafe playing chess for two hours. Won 2/2 games which is rare, she’s better than me, and the second game was an absolute epic. No blunders, really long and spicy and game. Lots of fun!

        Yeah, but you’re juggling some manner of complicated health issue - I do not know what, and I’m not going to ask because that’s your business, but you’re very open about the notion that your health is complex.

        The benchmarks might be in different places for you

  • just_kitten@aussie.zone ⁚6⁩ ⁚months⁩ ago

    Drove all the way to Preston to fill up at the last servo still doing 169/L (forgot I gotta drive to Ballarat tomorrow). Saved $7 compared to the other joints at 189, probably worth it as it would’ve only been about 50c extra of petrol. Dropped off some insanely overdue library books. Worked out how to undo the key lock I had my spare keys in. Laundry done. Now time to make a brunch of spinach, scrambled eggs, smoked salmon and toast.

    Next up, grab some boxes and sort out empty jars (colleague has offered to take em all) and expired/unlikely to be used food in pantry. Might use up some of the pantry stuff to take tomorrow, maybe a big batch of BBQ jackfruit.

    Saturday morning insight into the weirdness that is my brain:

    • Dream recollection #1: being unable to breathe (scary, I have a feeling of being somewhat aware that I was dreaming but couldn’t quite wake myself up).
    • Dream recollection #2: randomly eating a piece of 5 day old bread.

    How did I even get this far in life?

    Title

    The brain is a ruminant,
    Though only when the sun sets,
    Reclaim the ruins and the remnants, The river mouth regurgitates
    Riddles from the red-raw years,
    Rhymes to ride the tide of tears,
    Resolute in the face of fears.
    Re-masticate the reveries,
    Feel them flow forth freely
    Between the gaps and synapse.
    A lapse of judgement partly
    Resides within the wraps,
    The wrinkles, and the folds
    Of the grey matter maps;
    Memories unresolved, retold.

  • just_kitten@aussie.zone ⁚6⁩ ⁚months⁩ ago

    Ended up making a shit tonne of food, in addition to the dal and the slow cooked jackfruit, made a massive broccoli and pea and cashew curry that is bloody delicious if I say so myself. Not much progress with the jars and haven’t started pantry cull yet. But I don’t mind because I have momentum and a plan
 and had a few nice family chats today so that was worth it.

    Downside is I’ve picked up a nasty headache out of nowhere this arvo. I’m going to dish out this food, chuck everything in the dishwasher (I will fucking miss this dishwasher), finish the leftovers and call it a day. Gotta love winding down to Fresh Produce on PBS
