    Homeward bound. 20 mins until my train back to Melbourne. Had a great time and met my good friend’s friends. He hired a company that makes fire cooked pizza, they drive in with a trailer of two wood fired pizza ovens and supplies, and kept us fed with fresh pizza for hours. Quite buzzed and glad I didn’t stay longer or I’d be toast

    Biscoff is not good enough to merit a collab with literally every food brand in existence. They must be spending an absolute fortune.

      I’m not sure what you’re saying here. If you combine Biscoff with a spoon, something magical happens…

        Biscoff spread, omg yes. Biscoff on biscoff for biscoff’s sake… IDK.

      The first few times I tasted it I loved it, but I got sick of it pretty quickly. I’ve got a half used jar I bought for something I made that’s probably due to be chucked out.

    fucken hell, incident on werribee line, very tall muscular arsehole threatens to kill the muslims in the carriage

    people crowd around the muslims in carriage to protect

    at the next stop I got off and called emergency line, cops and train driver informed within 1 minute

    i’m not scared, just angry

      That’s freaking terrifying. I hate that festering pustules like this can have so much power. Hope he gets put away for a good while

      • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨15⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        will he?

        I imagine he will say he said and did nothing serious

        would witnesses come forward?

        maybe there are cameras in carriages

      You did exactly the right thing (brother is a train driver). There are protocols for dealing with such arseholes, and he’s in a world of hurt right now. The railways take that sort of behaviour very seriously - not just the vilification laws apply here. Remember the emergency button next to each door - it’s there for this purpose.

      source
      • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨16⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        I looked for the button, could not find it it

        to actually yell in a public place, in a train carriage where people are captive, that he is going to kill , to rattle his bag, to say he had heavy objects in his bag, **that was some very very serious shit **

        he told us who he was

        he told us who he hates

        he gave his justification, ie people who are against him deserve to die

        he rattled his weapons

        he told us what he was going to do

      I’m so sorry you and the others in the carriage had to go through that, what an awful situation. You did so good to call for help and I love to hear that others helped. What a shitty, shitty thing for that man to do. Look after yourself tonight, you are such an amazing person.

      • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        there was a young kid who got off at the same station as me, he was a witness in the same carriage but at the other end and he helped with details for the cops. He was a little shook up.

        I’ve been wondering if I over reacted but the targets of this guy’s threats were terrified. It was real. 😐

      That’s so scummy. I hope he goes to jail, repeats that to a large group of the people he’s racist towards, and enjoys his reward…

      It really sucks that I wouldn’t be able to do much to physically protect anyone in that situation

        : I’ve also thought that it’s really dumb to make people push the emergency button in plain view of an aggressive arsehole,

        this is the other reason i did not do it

        just trying to keep it low key

    Helped aunt out with what turned out to be some rather disastrous painting of some old cabinetry with wall paint and wall tiles with metal paint. I am not good at this but it was fun helping out and tidying out some insanely messy areas. The place looks so different now, absolutely not suitable for old people but I’ll be sad to see it go and not get to visit them there. Anyway I’m properly pooped. Psyched to get some house chores smashed tomorrow though

    Tooth tmi, swearing

    It’s the 4 or 5 day mark… try to get away with carefully nibbling a biscuit on the good side - I got away with it yesterday. Today a chunk immediately migrates to the wrong side and bruises the rim of the healing socket 😱 I’ve rinsed with saltwater and there doesn’t seem to be significant damage, touch wood. But that could have been a total disaster and still could cause issues especially with the risk of infection hovering. I can’t believe I let my guard down after being so careful. So stupid. You can’t get away with a damn thing here. Can’t trust shit. Fuck you biscuits (and self)

    There’s a vestigial vet appointment for Melbcat today that I have to decide whether I’m going to keep. I’ll ring and ask.

    spoiler

    I might give it up for someone on the cancellation list because she’s just been and I’m mainly waiting to hear whether I can start giving antibiotics. I have some here. She needed extra pain relief last night so if results aren’t back soon I’ll probably just start what I have whether they say so or not. From the distinctive smell it possibly is one of those resistant nasty strains that usually do need the enro. I already had to delay her with pain relief through Tuesday while I had my tooth pulled. She was seen Wednesday but I had the dr myself Thursday and was only able to get a sample that night, which left me taking the sample in Friday… If that guy had just done the cysto on Wednesday the results would be in sooner.

    I tidied a bit yesterday and did one load of laundry but there’s more to go then I have to wash the cups and sweep. Melbcat was sick in the wee hours this morning so I’ll soak that with enzyme cleaner.

    My box of antibiotics with a few pills left has racked off into the ether so I’m just going to start the newest box. These are three times daily -_-

    Between being careful of my sus tooth socket (which better not be getting infected) and my stomach function starting to shut down again I can barely eat anything. My mental health is crumbling.

    I’ve woken up tired.
