They’re looking very healthy
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I’m starting to wonder if I’m one of many people feeding them…

Leaving Melbourne for the first time since 2018. Off to Perth this afternoon!
just_kitten@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Enjoy! Go to Kings Park Botanic Gardens, highly rate it.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I went to UWA for about a semester and lived on campus at Currie Hall - King’s park was my back yard! I love it there
Duenan@aussie.zone 3 days ago

I’ve finally figured out how to get Gibson to go where I want her to.
I move to the room and close the door.
BOOM!
2 seconds later she’s going nuts for me to open the door for her lol

Cats are always on the wrong side of a door.

If ya’ll are delaying the dentist piece of advice: a cleaning regularly can prevent a filling. Ask me how I know. Also if your yet to do a will please consider this an order to go get that done ASAP.
just_kitten@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I do have a dentist appt scheduled in less than a month but I’m dreading it because I have NOT, despite repeated pleading from my dentist, been flossing regularly let alone using an electric toothbrush like I said I will. I might push the appt back a bit depending on when I wrap up uni so I can try and make up for bad dental hygiene a bit (I know that’s not how it really works, sigh).
I signed up to be on organ donor lists and get do not resuscitate orders back when had just passed 18, but I haven’t yet done a will because I have fuck-all to leave behind anyway tbqh. I’ll definitely get one drafted if/when I buy my own place, some day in the murky future.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Those floss piks help a lot. (The green Allsmiles ones are the best ones.) Having a packet next to my bed means it gets done.
anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone 3 days ago
😣 both are on my list of things to do. Denist is happening next Monday, but I keep putting the will creation off. Too many hard decisions
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 days ago
are you waiting for a sign? Good news this is it! Do your will. Do it soon. Tomorrow isnt promised and you just know the government will give your money away to Gina!
Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Wills are replaceable. You can make one set of choices now, and change your mind later and make a new Will. This is actually recommended if you have significant lifestyle/situation changes - eg. retirement or divorce or serious illness. If cost is holding you back, some Will providers do a cheapie basic version that can be suitable for say, next 10 years or so. That buys you time to do serious estate planning.
Taleya@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Ugh company in the little set across the road have put up a new ultra high intensity bright white and blue logo light that blares into our dining, lounge and bedroom and they run the fucker all goddamn night.
Time to go karen at the council…

I’ve got this bacterial rash either as a result of how sick I’ve been , or along side it. My skin feels so dry and gross. I feel like either an unmasked Deadpool without the healing factor or the infected guy in a zombie movie that tries to hide it and spreads it around the office.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 days ago
rest and phisohex
StudChud@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Rent paid with about $30 for the next fortnight. Not the worst we’ve been, but still
oof
anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Can I drop you off a box of food?
StudChud@aussie.zone 3 days ago
That’s very kind of you! There is a foodbank just up the road from me, so it’s not so desperate yet! We’ll be okay and it wasn’t unexpected - your kindness is appreciated! 💜
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Can you get some food assistance? That’s worrying
StudChud@aussie.zone 3 days ago
The cat has wet and dry food, and some wet treats. We have rice and cheap meat, bread, etc we’ll be okay.
It’s just interesting how easy it is to go from ‘okay’ to ‘oof’ so quickly. I expected it, but damn lol

how goods a crumpet with a bit of butter and peanut butter?!
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 days ago
A bit? Lol. Butter needs to be slapped on with a trowel.
Peanut butter and butter. You and @Bottom_racer@aussie.zone are my people.
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 3 days ago
butter and peanut butter
That argument needs to be put to rest.
There needs to be both.
It has been written and therefore is.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 days ago
theres no argument. Theres people who like it and then people who are wrong.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 days ago
What is wrong with you?
crumpets are made with little holes so they can hold butter and JAM or HONEY
crumpets are a little sweet so go with sweet things
english muffins with PB is good
Duenan@aussie.zone 3 days ago
It’s one or the other and lots of it as well.
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 3 days ago
My jealousy is rising
dumblederp@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I like butter and miso.
just_kitten@aussie.zone 3 days ago
First the Liberals get utterly trounced in the elections, now the Nationals are actually deciding to leave the coalition! Well well well. What a year for Australian politics.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 days ago
theyll be back. nationals cant win without libs to try take the city seats. Fuck knows they aint winning any city/suburban seats themselves!
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Maybe they shouldn’t aim to win but to represent their electorate.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I was thinking about this when I saw the news. Now is the best time for them to split since they’re both so politically insignificant. It won’t make any difference and they’ll probably all vote the same way. They’ll probably get back together in a few terms when the libs seem electable again.
just_kitten@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Well, this might be a wildcard but I’d like to see the Liberals start to follow more in the line of the Teals and importantly, stay that way to win back more seats. In which case the Nationals will either hold onto their ideals and become increasingly politically irrelevant, or be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century in order to form a coalition with the reformed Liberals.
Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I’m loving the idea of the Libs as a minor party. Some consequences for the 2 party preferred system though - Anthony Green or young Mr Briggs will have to generate a whole new set of statistics …
just_kitten@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I suppose it becomes an issue with the 2PP system where the Nats and Libs both contest a seat which is generally quite rare, I think? I would expect that even as separate parties they’ll agree not to fight each other on the same turf too much as they wouldn’t want to split the vote and have (shudder) some other party win.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Didn’t get the dim sim pizza, spent my lunch break finalising boyo’s birthday card and present for tomorrow. I’m really excited to give him one his presents!
Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Frost on my neighbour’s roof this morning. Haven’t seen that before. Grass at tramstop was white with frost except for a ring around each tree roughly equal to the canopy of that tree.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I think I am on the mend. 🙂 More rest today .
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Brrrrrr.
That is all lol
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Small effort makes me tired. Should rest more. 🥱

So no one here knows how to produce a FOI report from salesforce…
just_kitten@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Tim Wilson is 128 votes ahead with only 86 envelopes left to count; Zoe can’t win on indicative preferences but (a) let’s see what the formal distribution of preference yields, and (b) CAN THE MARGIN GO BELOW 100!!! In which case it’s more likely that the AEC would do a recount… though I still think it’d need a total fluke/miracle for Zoe to retain her seat.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 days ago
rate cut! Heck yeah. Bank passing it along too!
Catfish@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Throw up. Wonder what sort of alien plague you’ve contracted before remembering you took turmeric capsules yesterday.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I was going to go to Ballarat today, but I think I might put it off until tomorrow so I can get a few more things organised to take up.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 days ago
More sorting at home turned out to be a good decision. I got a bunch more stuff onto the hard rubbish pile (just in time, they’ve just picked up all the metal bits) and have found someone to take the chest freezer from the shed. A couple more things are up for sale, and with the freezer and some other clutter gone I have enough room to actually start sorting and packing things up properly.
SituationCake@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Birdbath has frozen. Hope the birds have ice skates.
Duenan@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I’ve just arrived at work. I was in my car with the heater on full and a beanie on.
it’s cold!
Having a quick coffee before I go out on duty for an hour.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Most of my team are offsite and so I’m getting absolutely nothing extra done except reading about my favourite KDramas around answering any emails/calls that come in.
Place near me is advertising a dimmie pizza today… should I do it?

Movie review. The Hound of the Baskervilles. 1978.
a homage to silent movies by Peter Cook and Dudley Moore,
is very english in it’s burlesque style
4 hobbits just for the music, which is very very good
and for Dudley Moore’s bosom which seems to grow every scene …lol

Just met hambams vet at the dog park. Lovely lady and very hard core knew her shit and doesn’t suffer fools that’s for sure. Had a nice long walk and chat with her around the park. Convo got surprisingly personal. She invited me back to her practice up the road, had some champagne w/ her and her assistant and got some great tips on hambam.
Offered me use of her clinic to leave the dog there and for training whenever I need if I need to go help my mum.
So random.
There are kind souls out there but I was not expecting that.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 days ago
sounds very nice 🙂
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 days ago
That sounds really cool man :)
