I may be younger than you, but I am not a child of the internet…but one of cultural displacement My location suggests I’m Australian, My use of language suggests I’m a Yorkshireman And my interests suggest I’m 55-60 years old

I don't really have a culture where I feel "this is where I belong" or "this is somewhere I have a connection to", which may explain why I'm not particularly moved by patriotism or nationalism.

"Cultural displacement" is a good way of phrasing it. I'm a non-white Australian, who moved here when I was still in school from the country where I was born - where I was *also* considered 'other' because I was from an ethnic and cultural minority.

One of the best games I’ve played in a while, and totally kid friendly.

I am a child of the internet. My location settings (artificial) suggest I'm British. My use of language suggests I'm Australian. And my interests suggest I'm American. :P

Here's what Keir Starmer doesn't want you to know about the war on Iran:

OMG! incredible

Hope is growing lychees from ebay purchased seeds and thinking you'll have lychees one day. Look. I just trust people and life, okay? Don't judge me.

I'm shocked I'm learning these things as an adult, and I grew up on hobby farms and around proper farmers. So...

There’s a fuel shortage so tip your fucking delivery drivers extra people

I got jury duty lol

BREAKING Leaked Prime Minister’s speech includes several measures to reduce fuel usage until June: • Weekend sports for wealthy private schools banned • SUVs in suburban areas not permitted to buy petrol or diesel • Online ordering from Amazon, Temu and Shein banned to save on freight costs

We've built a fuel tracker to watch the impact of the excise cut on prices -- and prices have come down much faster than the industry suggested they would www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04...

• Use of jet skis and fuel powered leaf blowers banned • Only AFL and NRL games between teams from the same state permitted. • All forms of motor racing banned

He can fuck right off then. He's the one sucking up to the Orange shit clown he can sort it out. Make your bed and lie in it comes to mind. Didn't his Mammy teach him that. FAFO @albomp.bsky.social Time to grow the fuck up.

Jordan Peterson and his daughter’s relationship should be academically studied 😬

youtu.be/tDtTNbnCiVY?... Disturbing stuff.

I’d express thoughts on this, but I live in Queensland.

Christ

I’m a bit disturbed that saying “since 1980” now means people go “finally a product I can trust” because 1980-1990 is my birth decade.

Quail eggs go into lock down this weekend. I think I might get one or two hatches. Hoping I get a girl and boy, but if not, I’ll get another dozen eggs and will be more careful this time. Muscovy ducks stopped laying but I’ll be picking two juveniles up on the 9th of April. Can’t wait!

Happiness is overnight delivered tube stock.

I think the best part of the rich isolating everyone from them and robbing them of money and resources is that they force the masses to work together. That’s how they get guillotines. It’s almost like it’s self correcting (but it’s not so fight back)

One of my hated feelings is when I can tell I’m wrong, I sense it first, my head is telling me I’m right, but I KNOW I’m wrong. There’s a mismatch between my values and what’s been said. This one triggers shame, it’s never defensiveness. The defensiveness only happens if I’m certain I’m right.

My goal is to always shift a person from where they’re at towards being a better ally. I have some amazing folks who read my posts here who do that to me. Us adhd people understand how sensitivity can close people off from listening, but I think it also makes those SAME people AMAZING advocates.

Cutting. Water. Any water. Maybe not soda water :p but like cuttings will put out water roots… I forgot about this one for weeks and the water was low but filled it up and all good. I also use these to filter my pond water so 🤷🏻‍♀️

ADHD growing plants technique. Get plants that can purely be grown in water, get a cutting plonk it in and wait. Nothing else to it. 🩷

This is Curtis. Curtis is the size of my hand and gladly eats any locusts I find in my garden. Curtis could eat birds if he wanted. Australian spiders are a whole new level

Just got a tiny bit of sand on your schnozz there Morag #spudlet

Ghostwriting looks like…

Sorry, THIS is how you respond?? You worded things very poorly in that post, you could have deleted it and reworded, you could have made a follow up post clarifying, but instead you do THIS?! Fucking ridiculous, dude. Can’t imagine why trans people would have a short fuse right now!

I read this as the guy intended. To me he was clearly clarifying the quoted phrase, not negating the prior. I ALSO don’t think his reaction is helpful. If people have taken him in bad faith it would be one thing, but a genuine misunderstanding occurred and it’s easiest to apologise and clarify.

the former reading implies Mark draws a distinction between conversion talk therapy ("not real abuse") and conversion therapy with "physical interventions" ("real abuse") the latter reading doesn't imply any such distinction, but rather an emphasis that "physical interventions" is code for abuse

A great trick I’ve learned is in QLD you can have water features in your garden if you stick a bunch of minnows in all of them. White cloud minnows are especially hardy, and love mosquito larvae. I give them blood worm every weekend and they need water plants, but the plants can just be pothos etc

In order to be a proper sociologist, you need a solid foundation in literary criticism. It is the only way do adequately perform the task of translating personal issues into social processes, and vice versa

Taking a whole day to paint watercolour while watching the rain tomorrow. I have new brushes to try. ☺️

I can get arrested for wearing a John Farnham song t-shirt in Qld, yet this guy can spread hate against Palestinians live on TV. The world is fucked! 🤷‍♂️🤬

Yeah. Nah. We completely disagree here. When a person who makes art wants to eradicate the existence of a group of people and has billions and uses all their time to do that, I will never seperate their art or the people promoting it from the artist. Ever. Criticising these actors is moral.

Why not just run a white, Christian republican male and get it over and done with? It’s clear the party is too cowardly to stick to its morals and values

Lol fuck off

Lithgow got Stephen King’d.

Is he doubling down after the criticisms? Fucking disappointed by all these actors. Fuck them.

*laughs* www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... If I order anything delivered now I tip $5 as a standard to cover fuel.

"I asked ChatGPt-" "Oh yeah? Well I went into the woods and screamed at squirrels for similar results, shut the fuck up."

As an immigrant who believes in truth, justice and compassion, as well as being very sensitive to noise (and pink is my favourite colour too), I wish you all a super Transgender Day Of Visibility!
