My mother was in my dream. We were looking at family photos. I lost most of mine in the bad years.
I miss her dearly.

I don’t really have a concept of an afterlife but I like to think dreams like that are my mum coming back to say hi when she knows I need her. Hugs.

Erin Patterson, a proven liar, sitting on the stand and claiming that everyone else is lying about her and what she said is actually wild.
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 1 month ago
There’s a bloke in the US like that and he’s currently the President.
If you believe your own lie, it’ll manifest itself as truth.
SituationCake@aussie.zone 1 month ago
She keeps asserting her lies until she gets completely cornered by the evidence and then changes the story and comes up with some excuse for the lies. Excuses like, oh I was embarrassed, oh I got confused, etc. I think she did it.
Nath@aussie.zone 1 month ago
My wife has been fascinated by this case and listens to the daily podcast about it. She’s gone from “oh she definitely did it” to “maybe she’s innocent, I can’t be say beyond reasonable doubt” after this week’s testimony. So Erin is clearly doing some good for her case on the stand.
I haven’t been following the case closely, but I listened to one recap podcast a week ago where they describe the multiple phones, the missing phone seen on camera that wasn’t provided, with the one provided to police being factory reset first, and taking her dehydrator on CCTV to the tip after telling police she didn’t have one - it was all pretty damning.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 month ago
but she didn’t have a dehydrator, she used to have one
I would like to see the police questioning, I bet it wasn’t very good
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Shows that the defence is doing a very good job! I think Erin is destroying it for them though.

She says 6 were made, one each for her guests, one for her and one that her child ate part of minus the toxic mushrooms which she scraped off.
3 people dead, one seriously ill, one made herself puke because she ate too much cake and one unscathed. Something doesn’t add up.
anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone 1 month ago
It’s wild that she’s saying ‘I never’ in relation to plates and announcing cancer, when her FIL says the opposite
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 month ago
I reckon the only reason she recited those plates are because they’re the ones that were shown on the evidence video earlier in the trial.

It’s miserable weather, but at least I can now be confident my heater is up to the task.
I’ve now done the setup for the outdoor security cameras, I just need the weather to improve enough for me to go outside and mount them. It’s just a couple of screws to clamp on to the gutter so it shouldn’t take too long - the hardest bit will be deciding the best postion for the one in the back yard.
Unfortunately my leave is over and I have to go to work tomorrow. My first night shift in ages, hopefully the novelty of meeting a bunch of new people and learning how to do my job in a different place will stop me falling asleep.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Good luck. 😊
tone212_@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Gosh I feel like I’ve been a total shut in this week with what happened to me, catching up on work and the cold weather. Winter hibernation mode is activating big time. I’ve got a birthday dinner tomorrow night and actually looking forward to some social time with friends, I really need it.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 month ago
How are you feeling?
tone212_@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Much better today! My head is still sore to the touch where I was hit but the headaches are reducing. Still a bit sensitive to super bright lights and loud people but I was never a fan of either to begin with haha
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Have a great time. You deserve it.
useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 1 month ago
My dentist was late for the appointment. Her car was updating and she was left stranded for a bit. Both funny and sad.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Cars update now?!
useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Yeah. It’s wild out there
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 1 month ago
I guess she didn’t press the “LATER” button.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 1 month ago
That was invigorating. I got to start my walk with a game of Pick Up the Rubbish Bin and Chase Down my Rubbish Strewn Down the Street. Just in time too, the truck was collecting it just as we got back.
My new laundry rack and remote control for the garage have both arrived. I think I’ll need to move the van to access the controller to program the remote, I might wait until it’s not so windy to do that, I’m likely to lose half the contents of the garage if I open the door.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Had a dream that guests arrived early and we didn’t have the cheese I planned to serve. And another absolutely awful dream (like fucking WHY brain. WHY did you show me that?!), but I’ll choose to think about the cheese.
underwatermagpies@aussie.zone 1 month ago
I think the universe is telling you that you need to buy Emergency Cheese.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Cheese shopping is on the cards for this evening!
Nath@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Emergency Cheese has a tendency to become a self-fulfilling prophecy. If I have emergency cheese in the fridge, I find I suddenly have an emergency that requires cheese.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 1 month ago
A while ago I confiscated a couple of vapes. Tonight we tried them out. Fuck. No wonder the kids are addicted to this shit.

Man I miss cooking and eating. I wasn’t “good” but enjoyed doing it and my health has ruined all that
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Checks the clock “oh shit it’s almost 9:30!” Feels very, very old suddenly.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 month ago
very windy, house creaking 🫥
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 month ago
I’m so tired but I don’t want to waste my Friday night. I haven’t even had the weekly doughnut fries.
Might take a longer nap with Fluffball.

Let’s say you’re at the supermarket; Is it against social norms to open a few punnets of strawberries and gather only the ripe ones to put in the punnet you eventually purchase?
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 month ago
I’ve made another temu order. The one from a little while ago was the first package I’d received in over a decade
SituationCake@aussie.zone 1 month ago
I have a splitting headache. Had 2 Panadol and a coffee about an hour ago, has dulled it a bit, but it’s still there. Today will be unproductive.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 month ago
kinda busy day
first some admin
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 1 month ago
I’m now nocturnal and kind of withdrawing from everyone. I think I’m getting really depressed.

I just watched How to Train Your Dragon and I thought it was excellent.
But then I read reviews. People have said it ruins the books and turns them into a generic coming-of-age plot, and also if you liken Hiccup to an autistic person, it describes how society shits on autistic people and glorifies them when they exhibit savant like moments.

It’s time to go meet The Paintress, OH BOY!!!
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Well the punches keep rolling for the ol’ girl.
Just learned yesterday big C. in the bowel. Looks like IV.
The last 8 months have been hell for her ever since that fall and now completely unrelated… this. Pretty limited therapy when pushing 80yo. She’ll be going in for an op but chemo/radio is out of the question. Working out the spread basically means just working out (guessing) how long.
Universe can be cruel.
Taleya@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Fuck, i’m sorry.
His lordships’s grandma got hit with pancreatic at 96, there’s something incredibly cruel about life pulling this shit that close to the end anyway
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 month ago
That’s shit, dude. I’m so sorry to hear.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 month ago
I’m so, so sorry mate ❤️
just_kitten@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Shit, that’s awful. It’s like an avalanche of medical suffering. I’m really sorry mate. I hope you’ll be able to spend some quality time with her in the coming months
SituationCake@aussie.zone 1 month ago
I’m so sorry.
underwatermagpies@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Oh shit. I’m so sorry.

I’m so sorry, that’s just terrible! Sending you and your family my love and good vibes, and I’m knocking on all the wood in my home!!
