Big ups to @YarraByte and @Brionglorid for the bot’s two week anniversary.
Had a pretty good day. Nice end to the week. Had some time to chat with the CEO which was good. He’s really chill.
Guitar and rest tonight I think. I haven’t been able to play most of the last 2 weeks because of my shoulder which has been pretty rough tbh.
Have rehearsal tomorrow so will do the best I can tonight.
Here is one of the newest additions to the stray family:
Oh, what a cute!
Did we find Calico?
Sadly not :(

This week can fuck right off. Work was super stressful. Time for icecream and beers
Same. I am going for wine and a new hair colour. It’s blue time baby
Don’t forget to put the black pillow cases on before the wine and dye.
Oh I long ago resigned myself to rainbow pillowcases
When you’re running late so you walk quickly to your seat on the bus, like that’ll make it go faster lol
I walk to the front door of the tram to get off at my stop so I get home 5 seconds earlier.
They just won’t stop growing. This is my fourth harvest and I’m barely half way through and the harvested ones are still fruiting.
I think I may have went a tad too far this season. My tummy hurts.
@Bottom_racer will gladly provide advice on what to do with a bountiful chilli harvest no doubt.
Haha, yeah Bottom_racer does sauces and that’s far beyond my skill level so I’m just dehydrating them and giving excess bags away to friends :)
I am generally too scared to do sauces, but I made myself do a fermented one last year using exquisite yellow scotch bonnets, and it was SO totally worth it (then I had to move and it got contaminated).
I definitely recommend having a go at it some time, even just a tiny batch for yourself. It was actually not as hard as I thought - despite the many gurus out there who overcomplicate things
I’m gonna ferment mine then blend them with roast capsicum (and a little chickpea, garlic, salt and vinegar).
frends and fam
pfizer makes me feel like i am under the influence
Don’t get too pfucked up.
i’ll pfind out
tips for velveting meat for tonights stirfry?
Beef, chicken or pork? Anyway
1/2 teaspoon bicarb, 30 mins, rinse, done :)
Just grated a potato, soaked and rinsed it, stirred in some pakora batter powder then deep fried it till crunchy. Holy shit I need to be careful with this culinary heroin I’ve discovered.
EDIT: I’ve also made a mix of 50/50 bbq sauce / siracha which is pretty good too.
Maybe they’ll be allowed more often if they’re baked?
some pelicans fishing from some tin cans moored off the pier
a tin can is a small aluminium fishing boat
Do you mean a tinny?
are they called tinnys now 😄
They’ve been called tinnies since I’ve been born 😂

I’m old. 😕
You’re ok 😂
Yes. Have been for aaages. Tin cans are submarines.
Edit: OK I’m a lot more chill now. Yeah she threw away their food, because of her “spiritual beliefs”. Where I feed them is not on her property.
I just think it’s a vile thing to do.
I’m not stopping, and I’m not doing anything illegal. I’m ready for a confrontation.
The idea that someone’s beliefs are more important than innocent creatures lives is repugnant to me.
what? 😕
making animals suffer doesn’t sound very spiritual
Think maybe the cat family he’s been looking after has had their food thrown away when he feeds them.
Probably. People do that to my wildlife water :(
yes, I think that’s what has happened. It’s awful.
I’m out of the loop on this, what happened?
Dumb bitch threw away the strays food because of her “beliefs”.
Fuck that.
There’s always some nutbag who can’t mind their own business and has to touch things that aren’t theirs…
Can’t believe I didn’t remember this before. I think Klever Cages might have gone under now but they had enclosures you could snap together out of pipes and there was the option to add a waterproof partial cover.
spoiler
A few of the specialised parts (door hinge etc) could be tricky to find but for a simple open rectangular shelter it can be done with pipes and connectors from Bunnings plus a tarp. There are free plans online. You could even make the waterproofing full length and in an inconspicuous colour.
Perhaps that would hide the food bowl from her and offer the cats protection from the rain.
I am home, and contemplating a visit to the pub
If you haven’t yet…do it
One of my fave producers is comin’ to town later in the month but they’re hitting $115 per ticket.
Back in the day (2000’s) it was $30/40 for a line up like that. in the EU something similar would be 20 euros.
Can’t justify that coin when you’re spending 1/2 the time in the smoking area talking rubbish with randos holding an $18 pint.
Australia is not a cheap place and I understand the cost pressures. Promoters won’t be making bank (truly doing it for the love of it) but it’s hard to see the scene thrive for internationals at that pricing.
I’m gonna try and get Lady Gaga tix this week. $115 bucks would be a dream 😭
ooh yea that one will sting.
Who is it? Might dig up some cash and suss em out.
It’s one of the bigger line ups for the scene. If I was going to go the one set I wouldn’t miss is Mefjus.
On the 26th april at the timber yard.
Legend thanks mate!
Will probs grab a ticket later today.
Billion dollar idea: Computer software that adjusts monitor output to people’s glasses prescription - so they don’t need to wear glasses while they’re working/gaming etc. 🤔
🤣 that’s awesome
