An unsurprising day (mostly) offline. It’s been good, but I still make choc chip bikkies at 9:30pm, so probably says a lot about my state of mind. They didn’t even turn out that good. Went shopping but everything I bought (mostly sparkly makeup) I already have similar stuff to, but I’m taking it as buying things that bring me joy.
Cried when I went into my bedroom earlier, just thinking the little dog would have lifted his head as I turned on the light. It’s gonna take time to break these habits, that muscle memory.
Ate too fast and burping like a mofo. Really enjoying the first episode of Poker Face even though Natasha Lyonne’s voice annoys the heck out of me
Well I fucking nailed that Butter Chicken. Both kids had seconds. That never happens lately. Put it in the oven for 15 minutes and managed to crisp up the chicken perfectly.
I love when that happens. I made slumgullian recently and it was requested on regular rotation.
That’s a big plus daddy-o 👍
w00t w00t!
Anxiety has been bad today. I’m not even thinking about you know what. It’s just there with the rest of my life and everything is making it worse.
I forced myself to quickly go out for newspaper to line plant pots but they didn’t have any. Some dodgy characters around but luckily nothing came of it.
I’ve planted two of the largest zucchini seedlings out but ran out of potting mix and energy because those pots were pretty big. I don’t eat much or exercise enough for physical work like lifting and shoveling so now feeling kind of shaky… but I kind of had to move and do something.
Also they’re growing fast and I don’t think I can keep all of them.
I wish you could get smaller size seed packs or a bundle with like a few seeds of each type. Maybe a seed library could sort me out but I think that’s enough ‘outside’ for now.
I like https://www.theseedcollection.com.au/ because they have smaller packets.
Nice, ty. The packets are larger for the things I’d like but it’s a nice resource
That’s brutal ugh I’m sorry 💜
I agree on the seed packs tbh, like a mix, or smaller sized packages would be cool! I haven’t thought about seed libraries though, that would be really cool to look into!
It is absolutely brutal.
And yeah, I get redundancy but the packs are quite large. There are community gardens but… I don’t like people
Search up Ken Lee on YouTube and thank me later
If we’re doing music, here’s a fun song I found a while ago:
The Voyager app for Lemmy seems to be good now.
That’s what I’m using. There has been a bit of lag with new DDT showing up this week, but otherwise good!
My illustrated edition of the Hobbit did turn up and my god, I can’t believe I got so much book for $16. It’s got gold on the cloth bound hardcover, it’s nice and thick with glossy paper stock, and it’s full of drawings.
Independent book stores could sell this for $36, saying it’s marked down from $70 and they’d move so many units.

Mood: The Summoning - Sleep Token
Mmm, what to eat for dinner…
That’s pretty cool. It’s like a Fear Factory/Meshugga cross with a slightly better vocalist
They fall into the horny metal genre to me, right next to Deftones. I think it’s all in the vocals
Maribyrnong: Anglecised version of “Mirring-gnay-bir-nong”, which translates as ‘I can hear a ringtail possum’.
That made me laugh so fucking hard 😂😂😂 like it’s just an apt name for the area holy shit 😂💀

7 hours in.
What are you drinking?
Pure Blondes and Soju shots on the half hour.
Ok , Interesting. What does the man drink?
Same.
I can’t get into the Soju. , I really tried but yeah it’s an acquired taste I guess.
We do shots. We find the South Korean much smoother than the Aussie version.
Ps. I had to teach the man how to do shots. Do not sip it cunt. Down the hatch.
If it’s in a shot glass…it’s a shot.
In fact, any drink under 100ml is a shot technically
You have a good style
That course I got a massive discount on? Given the total class numbers, yikes. And I can tell who the other not full price person is. Bad data handling.
I’m sure you know allll about the Privacy Act… I’d be so suss 👀
Not exactly, more I know enough to know what I don’t know. But yeah,they shared things they ought not.
