Did you get tail hugs today?

Not the most glamorous photo but I’m pretty happy with how this batch of red beans tastes - would’ve diced the celery and green pepper smaller but it was good enough considering how little space I have to work with in this wretched kitchen.
Making green rice in the rice cooker wasn’t a great idea, I’ve got green flecks everywhere to clean. But I got there in the end. Just waiting for the rice to rest and dinner is up!
useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Nice 👍
Duenan@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
As long as it’s yummy!
Sully’s on tv tonight. I think I have my evening movie set.
just_kitten@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
It’s a good film even if you know how it turns out. The NTSB is unreasonably villainish though, even the real life people involved disagreed vehemently with that bit
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
yum 🤤

Force is giving off major ‘waste not-want not’ vibes and I don’t want to miss out on the zeitgeist. Could I please have the last two slices of someone’s pizza, and coffee.

I applied for a bunch of jobs, so I treated myself to the last two DLCs for Cult of the Lamb that I was missing. Gosh I love this game, the sound design and soundtrack are amazing, and the gameplay is toight! ^like a toiger^
🙌🏼 praise the lamb 🙌🏼
Duenan@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Is any of the dlc content more than just costumes?
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Old manager tried to make me look bad again. I delivered the greatest possible fisting I could whilst remaining within the boundaries of being professional.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
What the actual fuck is wrong with this dude?! How old is he?
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
He’s 55.
His problem is that I showed him up. The team did an incredible job this year, almost double what they did last year and he can’t hack that someone is doing a better job.
I’ve got a meeting tomorrow with my new manager who’s slt in the morning so it’ll be good to have a chat.
Because later in the day, I have my 3 month “Check in” which sadly includes the old manager.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
absolutely no comprehension of how other people actually see him

Dream:
I was trying to climb this roof and no matter what, couldn’t do it. Was terrified of letting go and jumping back to the ground.
Eventually ran out of energy and fell. Turned out it was a negligible fall.
Ended up just walking around to get where I wanted to go instead.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I am going to Hobbiton with Miss Seagoon tomorrow. She is so excited even tho she has been before and she said she doesn’t know a bigger fan than me.
We are going on the tour and then having a banquet/second breakfast. Staying in Hamilton, having a bit of a look around then coming home to up north.
We are also looking into going to the northern most tip of NZ later in the week.
In malacology news I found the lip and centre of a triton, a most sought after shell that you often see in museums.
I woke up early this morning and had a look at the stars, so many and so bright. It’s nice after so many years of living in the city to see stars.
The cloud over Bream Bay was spectacular , just one long cloud.

Took the boys on the train to the Preston Market. I’m impressed with the place. I’m surprised I’ve never been here before. I’ve lived around Preston but never near or in Preston before, so that’s probably why. But I should have checked it out sooner
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I suggested Preston market but everyone else went “nah” and we decided to try Pipeworks market for a change. I’ve never been there. Jesus Christ what a shithole.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I haven’t been to pipeworks yet but good to know. Preston has enough mix of new and old to feel like both an establish and trendy new market
TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
This guy has caught the DT vibe, and he’s not even from Melbourne! Inconceivable!
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Yo. Today is a crumpet day, which brings me a small and private joy
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Team crumpet. I had mine with maple syrup.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Super early night. Up at 6:30am and Im too mentally tired to be of much use.
Goodnight everyone, have a great night ❤️

Pondering spinning up an au-specific home automation comm. anyone interested?
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I don’t even know what that is.
Taleya@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Home automation is basically smarthome stuff. Ecept thr comm i’m thinking od more home assistant, which is an os that lets you create an in-house server for everything. So no using google or tapo or eight billion other apps because omg device need internets, you can cut them off, they’re locked into your house and controlled by you.

I have now collapsed and removed sticky tape from the boxes I am planning to use as a weed barrier in the garden. Unfortunately I also discovered some more polystyrene, so I’ve had to throw that in the bin instead of being able to recycle it. Fortunately I don’t have much other rubbish as the bin is now almost full. The next step is to start on assembling shelves and trying to get a bit of order into the chaos in the garage.
Miss Meow came into the garage for a bit of an explore - she scaled the heights of the van, had a look around and then realised it was actually pretty boring in there and went back inside to the couch.

Ordered new lenses for my prescription sunnies. $400.
Ouch.
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Recently tried on some (i think) fancy photochromic type things and the difference was fairly amazing. Wasn’t any magnification just clearer. Heard how much they cost and nup, I’ll live in my little blurry world for now.
Pilk@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I had photochromic lenses for a while. They change very slowly when it’s cold, nearly blinding you when you walk back inside on a cold day, and they do not get dark enough to be good at being sunglasses. Leaves you wondering what the point is.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Believe me man, if I hadn’t had my eyes checked like, 10 years ago on a whim, Id be happy in my little blur lol
Pilk@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Lugged something heavy (first mistake) to somewhere I forgot to check was open (second mistake) and now my arms are so jelly from the two-way trip that I can barely lift this cup of tea to my mouth.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Getting out of bed may be the achievement for the day. The body, it aches.

NGV today?
Seems a nice day for some Impressionists

I should be doing chores but Melbcat and I are having a lie in. She’s being the little spoon between me and the computer.
I did throw some washing on when I had to get up so that counts!
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
aw🥰
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Sometimes she even helps me with the computer. So it’s a polite tug of war over the keyboard. She’s a great typer
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
another slow here
I am making sure i stay caffeinated ☕😊
Duenan@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
When are you flying back to Home?
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
The 16th. 😊
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I have succeeded in unloading everything from the van, but still need to move some of the stuff out of the way so that I can move the van out of the garage. I have one set of shelves up and a rough plan of where I want all of the shelves to go, it’s just going to be a bit of a hassle moving everything out of the way so I can put the shelves up and then put the things I’ve moved onto them. Hopefully next weekend the weather will be ok and I can either move a bit of stuff temporarily outside or move the van out the front for a little while to give me room to work. I’ll also need to make a trip to the tip to get rid of a few things like an old gas bottle and tin of petrol.
Duenan@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Sunshine is out, it looks like a beautiful morning today!
just_kitten@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Instead of jambalaya I decided to try red beans (with rice) - utilising the original recipe being something you can cook and cook for hours on a low flame. These beans have been on the stove for like 5 hours and I’m now adding them to the sauteed vegetables and spices and vegan chorizo for another 1-2 hours while I faff around with other shit, like making “green rice” with poblano chillies and some parsley but none of the oil, aromatics and other usual stuff. Let’s see if it can be done in the rice cooker.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
when’s dinner?
