I want to go nuts at Bunnings but am so limited by my body and environment.
I’m trying to make the best of being stuck here but it’s really taking a toll on my mental health. (Unfortunately anywhere else I move is likely to be worse or I may never be able to move at all)
And now for something completely different

Oh Mickey you’re so fine you don’t understand
You take me by the heart with the beans of your hands
His neopolitan beans give me life
His beans bless you with holy feline grace
OMG THE PAWS 😍🥰
I love kissing them. I know I shouldn't, but he always starts purring and kneading when I do.
I have discovered he also enjoys it when I give his belly kisses. Hands are for kicking when touching the belly, but my face is what he wants apparently.
Not happy when I blow raspberries tho heheheh
But I thought you shouldn't mix whites and Colours 🤔
He abolished segregation, starting with his own coat.
next you’re going to tell me he likes warmth
He does, but it leeches his colour into his whites
in another instance this would be criminal, but a cat can do no wrong
they say dogs go to heaven and cats go to hell, fortunately i love cats
i love how he hugs back
He was dream-hunting in the last pic, completely zonked out and twitching. I think his dream-hunting was ultimately successful 😂
a dreaming cat is the best entertainment, especially when you see them dream eating
Hi Team! You must all be feeling relaxed and refreshed after today’s meaningful volunteering opportunity. As the kids say, touch grass. As a big family we look after your mental health. Doing yard work for the CEO’s parents benefits all stakeholders. Now please enjoy the rest of your relaxing weekend, remember to complete your optional upskill module due tomorrow before work starts. I look forward to seeing everyone’s smiles at tomorrow’s breakfast meeting!
I for one am honoured to be working for our overlords at Hamazon.
We are proud to be the top organic breakfast ham slices and AI ham radio producer in the world.
Do we get a pizza and a coke?
Coffee with complimentary milk and sugar.
But we pay for the coffee?
You may bring your own coffee or opt to have $5 deducted from your pay.
But we aren't being paid for this family building exercise
You pay for the priviledge to experience the joy of our big family
I'm touching grass and it is blissful
Do not be tempted by the green apple candles at IKEA. They smell like burning plastic when lit.
Never light them. Stick them in a window sill in full sun to melt
Synthetic shitty candles are a recipe for scent-induced headaches 🤮
Reading this is making me sneeze
Alright I'm done.
The set is practiced and recorded. Time for some gigs again. I've got 20 mins worth of songs which is plenty.
Plus now I have a demo reel for band auditions which I'm going to get back into next week.
Ah man. I'm really looking forward to this. I've missed it so much.
Have a great night everyone ❤️
That's awesome. Be sure to share a bandcamp or something soon. I've plotted some things out but I need to find the time to properly record them and try put something out
TIL that woolys will replace your shopping bag free of charge even if it’s slightly damaged or stained
It’s a shame cinnamon toothpaste is much less common than mint. Like a couple of options exist, but I don’t buy because they either lack fluoride (Grants), are way overpriced (HiSmile, Marvis) or are a hassle to buy from somewhere other than a supermarket/involve third party sellers.
If there were basic fluoride cinnamon tubes at Colesworth though I’d probably give it a go.
Unflavoured toothpaste with fluoride would also be a good thing to have.
(Kids paste is milder but I think lower in fluoride and also not very appealing to me.)
I'd like more cinnamon stuff in general. Seems an underutilised flavour in Australia. Fireball is too sweet for me.
I agree. There were these tins of sugar free mints in cinnamon but those seem to have been discontinued. Big Red gum also doesn’t seem to be around anymore
My neighbor made this cake. Everything is edible except the doll. Simply stunning. It’s just a “hobby” lol.
