tfw you wanna make someone a gift of some earrings and all they wanna know is your bank account details and how much to pay you 😂

That is a damn fine fungus!

🎶 REACH OUT AND TOUCH FAITH

Making earrings while whistling "some people call me the space cowboy" and basically it's Night of the Living Earworms over here, I cannot get literally any song out of my head.

Asparagus, on the other hand.......

FORTY SIX YEARS

Here is a road cone in the wild with its young. You can tell by the markings that the juvenile is nearing adulthood, but size-wise it's still got a way to go.

I just did a search of my images folder for "cone" and apparently I have a *lot* of pictures of road cones and none of marijuana.

Bear Suit! In The Insurance Fraud

I had training today and on the way home I sang myself a little song to the tune of "These are a few of my favourite things...🎶" It's based on what I see around the city and what's close to my heart. It goes like this:

*sigh* And of course I just ear-wormed myself.

As a verified Chris I am willing to step up and take control of the National party.

And all that they found was his boots on the ground Boots on the ground, boots on the ground All that they found was his boots on the ground, boots on the ground...

Paying bills sucks.

Wellington friends, I need a favour. Next Monday afternoon 20/4 at 2pm, I have a gastroscopy at the Rutherford Clinic in Lower Hutt. I can get out there by myself, but due to sedation, I will need a lift back into town. If anyone can help, please let me know. Will reimburse your fuel costs. Ta!

My housemate: My wine...? Me: My social network was down.

I successfully socialed! People complimented me! And I got to meet @maramadavidson.bsky.social in person!

I did extra hours earlier in the week so I decided to finish work early today but I don't want to do housework either. :/

I believe that in order to take some small step forward, the word “bird” should be replaced with “saur” in all common names. Mockingsaur. Secretarysaur. Red-winged blacksaur. HUMMINGSAUR

Does anyone know someone who works at Icebreaker? I am trying to get hold of the company for a story and literally none of the contact options listed on their website work. There's no chatbot, the phone number listed is disconnected, and they give their email address as "[email protected]"

My work computer keeps telling me that my USB device is not recognised but I'm not using any USB devices. 🙄

members of the press, I too have a “feud” with the pope, in that I disagree with him about things and he does not care in the slightest

World may be on fire but I am looking parTICularly dapper rn

Had a Doctor Who dream except my ex was the Doctor and now I need to have stern words with my subconscious.

"Even something as simple and common as a fire extinguisher in your kitchen counts — the vast majority of prepping has nothing to do with bunkers and bullets!" Ohhhhhh buddy. Oh boy. You're *so close*.

I made these the other day! Also did a pair in black. They're quite fun, the movement is gorgeous.

Was at a networking event this evening and conversation turned to my jewellery hobby, then someone commented that they love supporting local (AoNZ) crafters and showed us her wallet... at which point I exclaimed a little too loudly, "Oh, @thesewphist.bsky.social! She's lovely!" Well, it's true.

Sometimes my workmates ask things in the group chat and I know I've spent too much of the day online because I want to chime in things like "Wrong answers only."

Nala singing to Simba, "I want to fuck you like an animal, just close your eyes, dear..."

I had a really cool patchwork belt and I couldn't remember where I'd put it but then I had a brainwave and looked at the bottom of my drawer of trousers and there it was under all the trousers. Needless to say I am now wearing the cool patchwork belt.

I forgot it's payday :D

Deleted a post because it contained a quote that was a joke but still think the actual sentiment behind it is disturbingly plausible.

The world is ~~fraught~~ but last night more than one person told me how much they appreciate me. 😇

WHY HELLO

Also, I didn't get selected for Encraftment. Again. 🙃

Now that I am home I am able to access the breakdown of the charges and very little of it is actually tax. The bulk of it is storage charges because *they are charging me for hanging on to the parcel while taking forever to answer my questions about what I should do about not having a UK address*.

P.S. When I enrolled in my new Master's I ticked the box for gender diverse and didn't feel like a fraud, go me!

I wore my @pepperraccoon.com "Trees Please" t-shirt today and a coworker commented that it made them think of St Patrick's Day (possibly because of the particular shades of green??) and you definitely didn't hear me slip into a bad pseudo-Irish accent but if you did that was why.

Tuesdays I am 'allowed' an energy drink because between work and the volunteer gig it's a thirteen hour day (not including travel), but some Tuesdays I really just want two. :(

I have spent time in fandoms and can confirm this is why humans write.

So, I try to get supplies locally where I can, but one of my suppliers is based in Canada. They stopped shipping to NZ a while back, so I forwarded through the UK via NZPost's UK You Shop service. So far so good... Until the latest order. 1/2

I've seen a lot of artifact vs lolly content in the last couple of days and I'm just waiting for someone to do this

Good job, internet. More of this.

One of my friends had a go at another friend on my behalf and I feel so loved rn 🥰 It's so nice to be defended.

little bugs are severely underrated

My teina just texted me "You need to get your act together as pope" and can I just say that my first act of togetherness will be to offer trans healthcare, and my second act will be to turn in all the pedophiles, and then I'll see how else I can make people mad.

A short bedtime tale by the 4yo: "Once upon a time there was a little boy who really wanted a unicorn. But every day, no unicorn came to his house. He would shout, "UNICORN!", but no unicorn came to his house. He wished EXTRA SUPER HARD but still no unicorn came to his house! Only tigers."

The feijoas have Arrived at my workplace. Bags of them. Desperate signs that say "HELP YOURSELF!!"

International shipping issues. 😡 Stupid customs...es.

I would do this and still not score 100%
