I miss my old barber so much. He moved and so I've had to find someone new. First replacement didn't do a great job and the second replacement, while better, still isn't it. Too long first time, now too short second time. My head is cold. At this stage I'm going to just grow my hair out indefinitely and look like a bum.
Long hair on male-presenting people is so fucking hot 🔥
falcon babies cute
so much floof
Standoffish cat was little spoon! Standoffish cat was jetpack! I am blesséd!!
I am fighting this bleary day with carbs
You've convinced to get a pizza. Thank you 🍕
Ooh just saw the oxalis post from yesterday lol.
I suppose we need an update.
Aerogard (40% deet) works very well. It's been a few months and surprisingly it hasn't bounced back so I think it does maybe hit the bulbs. Didn't kill any other plants using it. Found it works best when it's a still, sunny day.
Sounds promising. Oxalis is seasonal though, it starts dying about now and comes back in autumn. Will need an update in 6 months time. I saw in the Aldi catalogue there’s a weed killer heat gun on sale soon. Am tempted to get it to try as a chemical free alternative.
I wouldn't surprised if it bounced back and angrier than before lol.
Weed burners are good fun! I bought this cheapo one: https://www.totaltools.com.au/welding/soldering-irons/73683-hot-devil-750mm-super-heat-wand-weed-killer-hdwk and it does the trick.
Does it just kill the oxalis or the surrounding stuff too?
Surrounding stuff survives!
Okay, I am so over children right now. Was not aware we'd see 5yo Niece again until the chaos entered the front door.
Then going into the room partner and I are staying in, and touching everything. A mad rush to hide the condoms before she started asking about them. I already woke up on the wrong side of the bed, so I was quite short with telling her to leave.
I just want to go home.
Edit: this is grounding me, an Austrian banger https://youtu.be/wkQKfNatKco
I'll tell you a little bit about privacy.
My darling child always tries to embarrass me and it never works but she tries.
Her: So I was waiting on a package from Amazon and I checked the delivery and I noticed that you were also waiting on a package. OMG $22 LUBE. Girl, you can get that from coles for $6.
Me: But it's German and I'm worth it.
Her: I'm just letting you know whatever you buy online I can see so don't go buying sex toys ok.
Me: I prefer to buy those in store.
Her: Youse disgust me. (Walks off laughing)
Husband walks into the room carrying cups of coffee, wide eyed with a smile on his face.
The point is don't be ashamed. Own it. Don't go fucking with my stuff. And if it's not your kid, it's not your problem to explain. That's the parents job.
Being the only female in a house with blokes, I’ve been subjected to quite a number of discussions about penises and their behaviours. I like to take revenge by sharing information about the menopause in gory detail.
We are all now better educated so it’s win-win, really
But it’s German
Pjur? That's the good stuff.
When I was probably your daughter's age, I got myself a few ahem things online. My parents would go snooping in my transactions and saw it. I absolutely should've owned it. This is a family though who would not let me have partners in my room and see NSFW stuff as a very taboo thing and threatened to kick me out of the house if they ever found out I did anything.
Anyway, cheers 🍻
Nah good for you, customer service aren't punching bags. If you don't agree with the business LEAVE.
I would have done the same. The customer isn't going to die because they had to wait an extra 10 mins
A literal child is so upset she's in tears.
The customer can fucking wait or go elsewhere.
Yeah, it's not that deep! Sometimes things take longer than expected in life. Not saying that they should have to wait a super long time when it can be done faster, but no need to make a girl cry.
You are such a beautiful person. I really don't understand people sometimes. To customers who can't be patient, tell your story walking cunt. It makes me angry who don't understand a fair go.
Something that helps me in this situation is thinking something along the lines of: wow these people are pretty messed up to be treating people like that, poor things, must have had a hard life. I pity them that they are how they are
You are a much kinder person than I am.
First interview done. Not bad.
Second one was postponed to Tuesday.
Gym done, time for music practice and more applications.
YASSSSSS 🙌
Drum practice is so fucking lame but incredibly effective lol
Yesterday I did 8,660 steps during a strenuous day at work, then dashed home, cooked dinner and fell asleep! Woke up just after midnight. Must've turned back into a pumpkin or something 😆
Got the 2am sads. Why you do this brain, I want to go back to sleep.
Wise words
That is the worst. I try to curl up with something peaceful on in the background and just rest
Distraction is a good strategy
Everything is so X rated on the DT today.
We've gone from not naughty librarians, to dingers, to sex toys and lube and boobs.. an ibis (if that's what ducks are into these days it's hard to keep up).
There's a rave choon for that
I was working on my stroke today for a few hours... 🥁

🔥 Oops.
Great song. It's going on the playlist. 👍
Friend I haven't seen since January is working in Japan for six months. I don't know if she would do the same for me, but I've wanted to visit Japan, and maybe see her along the way. Flights are not super cheap, but I've been researching all week to the point where Google Flights shows me a higher price because of all the browsing. I feel like I've hyped myself up for it.
Went to my managers at work and they said they support my endeavour. As soon as uni is done, I will be on the grind for more cash.
Tall boiiiii
Show us the toe beans
Psspsspss
Shit sleep gang
Asleep at midnight up wide awake at 5am :(
Ahh, the usual, more arrrrgghhhhh tho.
Was a weird night. Somehow feeling refreshed though.
I missed seeing the text yesterday that the meds came in! They’ve been obtained now, that’s a relief.
The flowers seem to be starting to come up in the pots now. The blessing and the curse is there isn’t much for me to do there.
It’d be great if either my area or health was better to feel comfortable going out more. I spend too much time on the internet which is tanking my mental health. Meetups aren’t the answer though. I feel like a lot of people there are using it to find dates, which isn’t something I’m interested in and creates uncomfortable situations.
ok what the fuck happened last night because I know four people with ADHD in various levels of medication / support needs and they're all on their goddamn squirrel skates today
Not sure but I woke up with the WORST brain fog - like being hung over and sick. Really struggling with the jittery sads. (not ADHD but probably adjacent according to popular opinion). Some planet has gone retrograde.
Is Mercury in Gatorade?
What are squirrel skates? Asking on behalf of everyone here.
running joke of ADHDers having squirrel brain (so here I am, having this conversation and OOH LOOK A SQUIRREL) .
Today said squirrels appear to be on rollerskates.
I blame the wind.
I have no idea but I’m feeling it too. Recently my brain has gone completely squirrelly.
I know I'm kinda excited but that's because spring is sproinging and better weather and oh my god no more potted garden work I can finally knock off the paving and raised bed area.
also I just got this automation working and it's fucking sweeeet and the monthly meetup mob are gonna be jells af
I'm feeling a lot better today so I've just been chilling at home and tinkering with some music. It's nice to have a day to myself where I'm not trying to do anything or get things done like a regular day of leave.
Yesterday I spent a bunch of time playing Echo Point Nova. It's a must check out if you like your fast paced shooters like Doom Eternal or Ultrakill.
Pizza has arrived.
Gatorade is cold.
Dragon ball z is on.
Heaven!
(Seriously dragon ball is fucking awesome)
Right?!?! I mean come on!
I’m still waiting on Melbcat’s meds that were ordered in 🤞🙏 One is available but not the other
Edit: And her food obviously was running out of stock because instead of the full amount I got some loose cans and a refund.
Duck billed Christmas beetle has my vote - never knew there was more than one sort.
I voted for the Mantis, because they're my fav insect
I went greengrocer cicada because he's a goofy looking little fella
Apparently there was another $75 energy bill relief payment for October. That will help a tiny bit to mitigate the massive bill I'm expecting now that they've actually read my gas meter instead of estimating it.

It's not a phase mom!
Cheers 🍺
Fuck yeah!
I love this so much!
I like titties /

As long as I /
Can put them in my mouth.
Huehuehue
Boobies
Those other ladies are over thinking their imperfections like any other woman. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Logically I know this, emotionally less so 😂😭
Please listen to Tim Minchin’s song “Confessions”.
I'm already a fan haha, I LOVE Minchin!
You're beautiful ❤️
Thank you! 🥹💜
All of this is so normal though, even at younger ages or consistently lower weights and with or without children. Have you actually seen every other AFAB body in the world?
Also it’s about what’s normalised. Whose bodies are highly visible/who do we see most? Models, actors, athletes. Do they select harshly for insane levels of fitness or impossibly high beauty standards (and possibly surgery or airbrushing)? Yes, yes they do. https://m.youtube.com/shorts/CsqTvLbcDB8
Whether you get highly visible stretch marks and how much boobs sag (because they all eventually will) can even depend on how dense breast tissue is or how resilient your skin is.
There was a song I was going to link called “I love my body” from the Netflix show Bigmouth and didn’t because there is a lot of nudity in the video and the show is crude… but it really shows a lot of realistic variations in women’s bodies and presents it as a positive or neutral thing.
