About to make this velvet skirt my reason for living. (90s The Craft OST sounds intensify)

I’m so mad that it’s warm again, because I’ve been honing my knitwear addiction in readiness. (Please send your best to the knitwear drawer runners 😣 (Working at the op shop is like working at the knitwear temptation factory, also being fat means my clothes take up so much more room!)

Taking your Mom here on the weekend:

Saw a thread of people discussing ‘fisherman sandals’ as though this were a common term so I went down the rabbit hole and it’s just….SANDALS???? Literally any sandals???? Why are we putting the word fisherman in front of it? Like there’s no commonality of design here they’re all just sandals?!

There are days when I miss being an editor. I loved writing headlines. Whoever did this, I hope they took the rest of the day off.

The day my period is due was the worst and best possible time to see that clip of Colbert describing his favourite scent to his wife. Love and devotion 😭 😭 😭

Ran out of digestively neutral cereal yesterday, so ended up eating a bowl of ‘Gut Health Granola’ this morning, and I’m still paying for it in farts 🥴

Some may have missed it. But Tasmanian Treasurer Eric Abetz’s budget delivered yesterday includes massive cuts to veterans, community, women, children and family violence services. That is on top of cuts to health, education, justice, state growth and the environment #politas #auspol

Just want to remind everyone again that in the city of Seattle, which built that unimaginable wealth and continues to not see any of it returned to our community, has a public school shortfall in the millions. Elementary kids are holding move-a-thons while he’s not paying those taxes

Bosley is enjoying the inauguration of this #crochet blanket, btw. I anticipate a series of small repairs over time, lol:

Strange to think that not so long ago movies were so revered as an art form every other medium wanted to be movies. TV wanted to be movies, video games wanted to be movies, books wanted to be movies, and now look. Now look what happened to movies. Even TV is too good for movies now.

Here’s your Ferry Terminal update of the day, for #politas people not up north:

My previous GP was the best at Pap smears & said it was because a doctor trained overseas does many more in total education & practice than Australian trained doctors do, purely due to larger population. Repetition & experience. We are a very small country lots of ways. Hearts & minds especially.

Religious schools and religious hospitals should be allowed to discriminate based on their beliefs, so long as they don’t get A SINGLE CENT of public money. If secular taxes are paying for you, you must be inclusive of EVERYONE.

Starting a conspiracy theory that this is to get the non bus catching population used to buses because that’ll be the only way to get to the stadium. #politas

Meanwhile, publishers are blocking the Internet Archive, a digital library, from archiving their journalism due to fears of "AI scraping." That's right -- the same papers selling their work to AI companies are blocking a nonprofit archive due to "fears of AI." (2/3) www.niemanlab.org/2026/05/more...

Don’t make me tap the Mamdani sign, Jeffrey!

Forgot I had a coffee at morning tea, and then didn’t order decaf at lunch pray for Mojo

Lunchhhhhhhh

My Fat Girl Shorts failed me SO UTTERLY on my sweaty walk home that I now have a level of inner thigh chafe that feels like a human rights issue. Their punishment was to go in the bin because you only cross me like that once.

Was literally just speaking to another cis/het millennial friend about this today, but an American - About how trans storylines used to exist without cultural panic when we were growing up. Were they good representation? Not really, but they weren’t seen as an existential threat either.

I never want to see this group of words together unless they’re literally in a colosseum so we can be rid of at least one of them:

Missing housing. Responds to “Middle.” Last seen over 50 years ago in cities everywhere. Help find it. Please contact your elected officials. 555-456-CITY #UrbanTruth #MissingMiddle

I love learning stuff about France that just makes me go, “Of course.” Nippies & a biscuit down here 😂 (So I’m told by Jeremy - I’ve historically not been allowed to give blood)

We must purge ourselves of all corporate thought. We create art, not product.

Nice to see Betoota covering this important story: www.betootaadvocate.com/regional-sup...

This is a cat check point. Relinquish your most recent cat picture on your phone:

I am once again begging, praying, weeping for lists of written instructions rather than videos. I do not want to watch your two minute video in the hope of catching the two seconds where you whizz past what goddamn menu the thing is under. Write. It. Down.

Just one more nap bro

Looking up datacenter locations for a piece I'm working on and found maybe the most egregious piece of AI art I've come across in the wild.

she’s in oakland, someone tell interpol

Love to start the tasks with deadlines early & in a sensible one at a time order, breaking the habits of a lifetime so that I may finish them early & without stress…….. only to be BRUTALLY DELAYED BY TECH & end up in the exact same ‘Do everything last minute & all at once’ bullshit I was avoiding.

Very unsettling to round a corner in the neighborhood I've lived in for over twenty years and see some geared-up guy with a bigass gun and a vest that just says AGENT

2 hours of hard physio at the pool, so I went for a cold plunge in the Bass Strait, it started raining (perfect!!) and then when I emerged - THE PASTA FOOD TRUCK WAS SETTING UP!!!! Everything’s coming up Jen!!!!!! Girls only want 2 things and that’s a cold plunge and a pasta dinner!!!

All my Good Simps! Did you know your official job title can be Best Boy?! A career in the lighting department awaits!

Our whole approach to disability locates the ‘impairment’ in the individual and, with it, the responsibility to make/seek adjustments. It’s both pathologising and dehumanising. A social model understands that disability is caused by society and therefore it is society that must adjust.

This should be normalised. Modern LED lighting can be the right brightness (low), aimed down (duh), and the right colour (reddish yellow). There's no need for towns to be visible from 50km away, and we don't need to burn coal all night "cheaply" anymore!

I stand in solidarity with Palestinians who are commemorating the Nakba today. The Israeli Government’s continuing genocide in Gaza is an extension of the Nakba, despite Palestinians having every right to self-determination and to live in peace. #auspol #politas

I am fed up with it.

For months I’ve enjoyed this song, and suddenly I’m no longer allowed to. Giving up physical music media was a mistake we’ll regret eternally.

Further to this, an inquiry into AI and data centres was referred to the Senate just this week. Great opportunity to share perspectives. Submissions closes on 26th June. #auspol #politas www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentar...

Horny Garden.

Lololol my herculean effort to leave the house and be a person last night has been rewarded…with prolonged digestive distress! Gahhhhh I just had to call out of work and the work social function tonight I feel so rancid.

Zohran Mamdani has fully balanced New York City’s $12 billion deficit — an uncomfortable reminder to the political establishment that governments can, in fact, function when taxpayer money isn’t funneled toward lobbyists wealthy benefactors

Unemployment is *built into this system*, so the idea that everyone’ll be employed is insulting nonsense. Aspirational propaganda. Raise the rate. Do some good.

Was hoping to wake up more mentally well today - lol that did not happen! I suppose I persist.
