looking at clothes I would like to buy is good motivation to stick to good eating habits
👍
I hate to admit this, pics of overweight models are good motivation 🫤

I searched for lost rabbit posts online in my neighbourhood: nothing. I didn’t notice any signs up around the neighbourhood either. Mr P is getting attached to it, so I’m trying to find where it came from, but also we can’t seem to catch it. It seems to come and go as it pleases; sometimes it’s under the man cave couch and then it’s gone… and then it’s back! I even joined Facebook for the first time ever in an attempt to access lost and found pets groups, but there wasn’t anything relevant and I got suspended after about an hour for violating the terms of use or Facebook “identity and integrity” rules or something…I didn’t share enough personal information because I don’t like doing that. No, I won’t upload a selfie. No, I won’t share my contacts with Facebook: it’d take too long to ask everyone’s permission lol, which I know nobody does but that’d be the decent thing to do wouldn’t it. Anyway, Magic the rabbit (Mr P named it) seems to be making itself -occasionally- at home in the tent, slowly getting closer to him. I didn’t bother to tell him how I’ve been laughing all day at the “magic bag/lettuce” comments.
Lol not a big fan of rabbit as a meat, a bit gamey for my taste. Some of the old blokes around Merri creek in Brunswick East used to catch the rabbits and make a stew that looked and tasted a lot like a cacciatore. Always thought it’d be great with something other than rabbit.
You monster! Atleast pair it with a nice red and a decent dessert.
I found a domesticated parrot type bird and found the owner via calling the local vets. Any chance the rabbit has an ID chip in it?
I’ve gotta catch the little beggar first! Otherwise that’d be a great idea. Maybe if it comes back and Mr P gains its trust enough to catch it. It’s disappeared for the evening again.
I think you own a rabbit now.
Please mum, can we keep it? I’ll look after it and everything. Pleeeeeese. 🙏
Sure. Just like the dog and the cat and the dead gold fish.
Hey! That goldfish may not have been dead when I flushed it down the dunny.
Oh sorry. My bad.
We were just sending it off to a better place.
People who live alone:
Do you always having something on in the background?
Yeh - or I’m playing a game. YouTube, music or twitch streams normally. I also go to sleep with an audiobook on.
If it’s dead quiet I pay too much attention to the sounds in other apartments around me, and also get too caught up in my own thoughts.
Mostly when I’m on my own I like to enjoy the quiet that doesn’t exist when my partner is around. But sometimes I like to listen to audiobooks or music when I’m doing house tasks to make it less boring.
Sometimes, if I’m feeling low or lonely I’ll have some jazz on, especially if I’m cooking or it’s cold or I need to motivate myself to clean. About 40% of the time I’ll have some atmospheric/ambient music on when I’m trying to fall asleep. I’d be less likely to if someone was around I guess
I admit to filling the space with music or talk when Mr Seagoon isn’t here.
Slammin’ dnb here not exactly in the backgound :)
Mostly not. I like the quiet. But sometimes I’ll put something on if I’m cleaning or something.
I’m almost always wearing headphones or earbuds with music playing. Shower with a waterpoof speaker too.
I go through phases. When I am overwhelmed - no (or low ambient music) but often a podcast or audio book or even the radio as company when I am doing chores.
Yes if possible. Weather tv, movie, radio, music or podcast.
I can’t stand silence when I’m awake.
But you’re also talking to someone who always use to have music on while even while studying for exams.
No. Traffic noise, bird song and the neighbours’ music choices suffice for me. And the changes in the soundscape tell me the time and often the weather too. I’ve found as I got older that I just didn’t need to have massive amounts of self generated/chosen sound to block out the world. I like feeling connected to what’s going on around me. I may or may not participate, but I like my ears to tell me that there’s a world outside my little house box just going about it’s business.
When I do put on music or a radio programme, it’s to really listen to it - background music etc. just doesn’t do anything for me. Neither do films or games much.
I’m alone much of the time and I often do, I have very bad tinnitus. 😖
quiche is nearly finished baking, simple avo salad has been made.
And in all the groceries I bought today I chose all the low fat low calorie options. 👍
Pesto the baby penguin might need to join tge ‘no snacks after tea’ gang.

He is a big boy. 🐧
Someone just left a large box of Hello Fresh on my doorstep. Commencing Operation Neighbourhood Doorknock now.
You are a good person to try find the owner.
Got some rewards out of the process - would do again I think even without those. Its a nice neighbourhood - we all help each other when we can.
There isn’t a phone number on the label? Had this happen before.
Tried online dating for like two weeks. Meant to meet up with someone tomorrow but haven’t heard from them in a few days, so doesn’t look like that’s happening.
Not really feeling it overall, so my matches got some friendly messages because we don’t do ghosting. I will be watching Coraline because one of them really talked it up. At least I got some movie and song recommendations out of it :)
Haha! I got a new favourite band and several decent book recommendations out of my online times. Some from guys I never actually met. It’s a multipurpose activity.
That’s always good!
Who’s the band?

The giant ageratum popped when I was away. Favourite plant not only because it looks nice but it’s the first to wilt if you’re fkn the watering up.
ageratum is so lovely , I grow it as a ground cover under shrubs :)
vacuuming done and I did a really good job of it too, all the dusty corners I hadn’t been doing because of a bad back are now done
fricken cat hair is beyond a joke too
I planted the zucchini seeds out in paper cups, 3 in each to thin later. I might get some sugar pumpkins and stakes too.
I have no clue how well this is going to turn out in the size of pots I have but I really need to be doing something constructive and my brain thinks of that as growing food
Zucchinis are great to grow. Pretty hands off really. They can get stupidly large if you let them run.

Time to start thinking about frocking up for the Brownlow tonight. I’m going fancy- clean trackies and jumper respectable enough that I would wear it outside.
Rick & Morty t shirt, moon & stars pj bottoms and a spritz of deodorant.
Deodorant? Super fancy!
CLEAN trackies? Ooh la la!
I’m rocking my leopard print dressing gown and ugg boots.
Dammit, I’m wearing the same thing. One of us will have to change
Joke’s on you both. I’m rocking up in ugg slippers.
Odd time to eat but I did it.
Made burger and put it on a paper towel and lightly toasted bun kept it all intact.
Most painful part of all this is the cleaning up.
Patties are minimum 160g I reckon.
Here’s the minimalist burger. Essentially double cheese burger with bacon.
I’m full and stuffed now.
Dude! A lamentable lack of pineapple but even so!
!!! I never even thought of that. I might need a quick trip to the super market tomorrow
Truly monumental . You must give it a name.
Just a humble if big double beef with double cheese and bacon burger.

Oh man 😮🤤 I would lay waste to that thing right now! I’m a big fan of eating when you feel like it. I definitely feel like eating that burger!
It’s beautiful 😍
I used to watch alot of Man vs Food. That’s where the idea came from. Glad it worked out. Yours looks delicious. You’ve inspired me to have burgers for tea tonight too. 👍
Thanks for the tips. It definitely was a better experience eating it.
I did forgo the hash browns just incase. The Pattie’s had a lot of oil come out of it. I’m sure that more than contributed to yesterday’s destruction.
Toasting the bread helps hold it together, much like CEO’s frying it suggestion. I build my burgers between alternating layers of dry and wet stuff. Eg If I put pickles, tomato and mayo all together I’ll wind up with a mess, but if I separate them with egg, patty and cheese; it all works out.
It definitely made a difference. I was able to squash it down and hold it in my hand intact for the entire time.
I sadly didn’t have much else to add to it so might look a little plain but boy was it delicious.
I’m trying to leverage myself out of this hole but going outside in my feral neighbourhood is actively making it worse.
If it wasn’t for Melbcat I kind of wish I would just die already. I’m not being edgy. I’m tired.
Feral suburb depression hits different.
Ted Cat loves his little Halloween house.
How does the second storey work? 🖤
It’s like a church, it’s a vaulted ceiling, no second story.
I 🖤 this so much.
Boo Ted 👻
Maybe dracula will bite his bum.
he deserves it
I love everything about this picture. Teddy looks so beautiful and mysterious
He’s a giant monster
Movie review time. Gun Shy. omg …lol The story is familiar, is lunacy, the characters insane or stupid, and it’s a totes homage to Leone. Parody of Sopranos perhaps.
makes me lol so much that the critics were upset at the fart jokes but all the depictions of graphic psychopathic pointless violence and murder were ok.
