I grew up in the Blue Mountains, before most of the GWH was widened, and I can tell you from experience that heavy traffic over Easter is inevitable. Delays over Easter are inevitable. Accidents over Easter are inevitable. But this year is when people have chosen to be angry about it.

News just to hand, Kyle Sandilands finally experiences a consequence.

I hold on to the hope that someday, eventually, Spotify will figure out that I don't want to hear the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Me: Help yourself to a piece. Husband:

Nollaig Chridheil one and all. That's Scottish Gàidhlig. No I can't pronounce it.

Putting together a playlist of songs that aren't Christmas songs, but they mention Christmas things. Stars, angels, trees, etc. Throw some song titles at me.

Good news Pauline! I found the solution to those paper bags that break. Although something tells me you won't like these either... #auspolitics

Sometimes I think about the part in Hamilton where he has an affair and tries to cover it up with money, then he gets caught and it's just understood that it's all ruined any chance he had of being president. Just thought I'd mention that for no reason.

On holiday with the kids on the Gold Coast, we've been to three theme parks, and not one searched my backpack, because Australia has gun control laws and they're great.

I made a thing, and I really like how it turned out.

Went to a pie master-class at Ross Hill Wines, presented by Orange Pie Company. So much yum. Loving country life.

This song is in my head because of reasons... m.youtube.com/watch?v=6WXe...

Took a selfie and couldn't fit the full length of my hair. Might be time for a significant chop.

My dad always told me it's a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll. So I was quite happy to drive 45 minutes to get this maple bacon and hazelnut deliciousness this morning.

Yeah sex is great but have to ever shoved a fistful of shredded cheese into your gaping maw at 3am?

I'm sure the people at BigW intended for this to be a comforting thought, but being told to expect random hugs from trees sounds like the premise of a horror film.

Note to self - grating garlic works better if you peel it first.

Sorry, I can't tonight. I need to watch the last three episodes of Andor before the memes drop.

Soup season is here.

He is orange. He has arms and legs. Freehand crochet, no pattern, just me and my skills. Le poisson Steve.

Mixed myself a drink called a Wookie Woo Woo. Yes I know it's Sunday. May the 4th be with you!

Green stitch marker was a mistake. Looks like an orange.

I said something at work today that upset a few people and I don't know if they can forgive me. I confessed that I don't like Man I Feel Like A Woman by Shania Twain. It's always been cringe to me.

Car paint is basically nail polish. So I don't see why car manufacturers limit me to only 6 options when I could have the full OPI range to choose from.

When your nails are THIS pink, may as well lean right in and add some glitter

Happy Something For Kate day! You're the last day of April every year. youtu.be/JDGeozqegOc?...

Deciding what colour to wear next is hard.

Dragon cross stitch bookmark before and after backstitching. Disclaimer: pattern purchased from an independent designer so the author didn't receive a cent.

I'm quite certain more people would vote for The Greens if they bothered to read and understand their policies instead of clinging to outdated assumptions of what they represent.

Cross stitching is done. Now onto the backstitching. I have a love hate relationship with backstitching. Love the effect, hate doing it.

They look like eggs. They're actually jelly shots, made with fairy floss vodka.

Like this if autism didn't ruin your family, but actually made it stronger.

Under what circumstances does Duolingo think I would need to know this?

This is a dragon. It doesn't look like one yet, but trust the process.

I genuinely don't understand why the red pill crowd think "soy boy" is a good insult. Like, that guy manages his lactose intolerance, sick burn!

You might be cool, but you'll never be "Tim Rogers in a denim jumpsuit with feather cuffs and purple suede boots" cool. So pleased to cross You Am I off my gig bucket list.

[speaking into a flashlight] there were only four channels and you couldn't skip the ads

Tonight for pub trivia we called our team "tariffs on penguins".

The "woke agenda in schools" is literally just teaching kids not to be bullies. As a result, kids who are different (who have always existed) feel safe being themselves, because other kids aren't bullying them. Imagine being mad kids aren't bullying vulnerable kids anymore.

Thought I'd try out intuitive eating, where you let your body tell you what it needs. Apparently mine needed a charcuterie board and a bottle of rosé.

You know how relieved you are to know that Mark Latham was never PM? Let Dutton be a similar footnote in Australian political history.

Simpsons mani for Simpsons trivia tonight. The green glows in the dark like Mr Burns in the X Files episode.

I'm over journalists talking about the budget in terms of "winners and losers". It just reinforces the "what's in it for me" narrative.

Re-Quote with a movie you know all the lines to

I don't want economic reform. I want social reform. And I'm frustrated that every election, all we hear about is tax.

If you see this, you're invited to quote with the energy you bring to Bluesky.

Took a break from my larger projects to make something quick and simple.
