Also happy mother's day to everyone, and if you're someone that's struggling today, I hope you have the best day you can ❤️

Imodium really does what it says on the box huh

One of my only 2 referneces has decided he no longer wants to be one. I asked why and he said "he doesn't have time".

Fucking great. Just great.

heh park party rave was great. They really did that well.

Trying to find it really took me back. You can hear it but it's like a km away and you're walking in darkness trying to find it and not to trip over shit.

It is strangely satisfying when your side of a minor Reddit argument gets the most upvotes. Also slightly disturbing, given that this feeling is what no doubt fuels unhealthy pile-ons where everyone wants to join in on the "winning side" and abandons rational argument entirely. I should be the better person and focus on the benefits of thoughtful and reasoned discussion over competitive point scoring. But just for a little bit I'm going with HA HA you petty judgemental b*&% I win.

I may or may not have not trespassed on private property (without realising) to get this shot, but the view was so nice

I'd love to see those of you with pets try and do this. Might be good for some laughs!

Friend came over and we moved off the last of the planter boxes from my balcony. It's so sad and empty now. And it's an effing pain to go pick some herbs or water my plants or anything - gotta exit my apt, go down two sets of steps, open the main door, walk 300m, back up another flight... plants are in a more exposed area too, I worry about the curry leaf plants. I see the snails have already gotten to some of my seedlings in absence of my maintenance. :/

I really hope the landlord gets the balcony fixed soon because it's denying me use of space that I'm paying for. If she drags it out thinking it's a bonus for her to have all my pesky plants in the common area and not on her balcony, I'll definitely contact Tenants Vic to figure out my options.

Hate that the rental market is such that I don't have much leverage to say fuck you I'll move. (also as much as I'm tired of the area I live in, it's so close to my new job that I'm not sure I do want to move further out for now).

Gonna try and not stew on this and instead get to work reorganising and watering everything + applying copper tape on all the pots not just the biggest ones

So much Eurovision drama. Joost has been disqualified for… something. Meanwhile myf and Joel’s commentary of Israel was just… I mean Joel opened in with a loud audible sigh. That sort of tells you everything. Norways jury voice has pulled out, Ireland are pissed at Israel, meanwhile Israel somehow got through with one of the weaker songs of the night? Crazy stuff.

Sadly I won’t be checking any socials between now and tomorrow night when I’ve watched the grand final, but maaaaaaaan spewing I’m gonna miss the updates in between cause it sounds like the Dutch and Irish are about to go to war with the EBU.

I'll just need to be satisfied with the moon I guess.

still in disbelief that the best sky pretty photo i got last night was from my living room window

Google timeline for April just arrived. According to Google the highlights of my month were a trip to the dentist in Blackburn South, followed by my exciting shopping trip to Supercheap Auto to get headlight bulbs. Sadly, I think this may be accurate 🤣

The worst part of the plant stuff is done. I still need to repot my manzano and prune back the red hot poker, and buy some veg to make dinner and meals for the next few days. Plus figure out what to do with all this rosemary I pruned off, and stock up on some oil and rice so I don't need to do it after my trip...

...and despite all my going on about it, I've yet to start on my scotch bonnet pepper ferment. I gotta do that today so I can move that plant out onto the common area too.

Plus I still haven't organised a full itinerary for my trip in 10 days time, I have an idea of where to go but need to sort out accom asap...

Argh, I want to just lie down and enjoy the rest of the day! I have a busy week ahead next week too, stuff on after work every single day 😫 and the weekend needs to be set aside for packing. I think I need to really be disciplined with my work end times the next week. No hanging around for a yarn

There's 2 days in a month where I give my ovaries what it wants. Today they got pancakes and Singapore noodles and a wheat bag. Later they may need some chocolate and Bailey's.

A hug from mama ocean for anyone who needs it today

Looks like another wave of sun incoming tonight, optimal for our timezone

Just bought a dozen hot cross buns at Coles. We goin' all year baby!

@Seagoon_ Not the weekend I was planning for.

I was planning on seeing an art exhibition that a friend recommended.

Unfortunately, this morning we discovered Miss Mimi seems to have conjunctivitis, which set wifey off on an anxiety attack.

So we didn't end up seeing the art exhibition.

(Miss Mimi will need to visit the vet tomorrow.)

On the upside, I have started packing for my trip in two weeks.

A restful weekend seems to have helped with the flu I've been nursing for the past week.

Another tobacco shop arsoned. Is it terrible that seeing as I don’t smoke or vape or participate in illegal tobacco gang warfare, I don’t care one bit. If they wanna bomb each other out of existence, probably works out just fine for the rest of us.

Haven’t done a jigsaw in a while and thought I’d get myself one. To say the pictures available are underwhelming is an understatement. Choice of 25 versions of the colosseum or Eiffel Tower, and a bunch of Disney characters.

I managed to walk into a door handle earlier and it really fucked up my arm. I don't know how hard I walked into it, but I'm surprised it didn't go through me. Instant bruising, and I can't lie on it. Neither panadol or Nurofen helped at all

Ahh Torchwood. Even when you were bad i got to see a pterodactyl fight a half-naked cyberman

@Seagoon_ So recently, I've been thinking about possibly getting a buzzcut.

I don't think I'd be brave enough to go for a full buzzcut, plus I like having long hair.

But maybe a half-shaved head? Or an undercut?

Has anyone else here had one? If so, what was the reaction?
