Melbcat is sleeping warm under the doona. I hope she lets me in!
I’ve seen electric blankets that are washable and am wondering if it’s worth buying one of those.
I AM ON HOLIDAY UNTIL THE 28th
Big ups to @YarraByte and @Brionglorid for the bot’s two week anniversary.
pfizer makes me feel like i am under the influence
Don’t get too pfucked up.
i’ll pfind out
Edit: OK I’m a lot more chill now. Yeah she threw away their food, because of her “spiritual beliefs”. Where I feed them is not on her property.
I just think it’s a vile thing to do.
I’m not stopping, and I’m not doing anything illegal. I’m ready for a confrontation.
The idea that someone’s beliefs are more important than innocent creatures lives is repugnant to me.
There’s always some nutbag who can’t mind their own business and has to touch things that aren’t theirs…
Can’t believe I didn’t remember this before. I think Klever Cages might have gone under now but they had enclosures you could snap together out of pipes and there was the option to add a waterproof partial cover.
spoiler
A few of the specialised parts (door hinge etc) could be tricky to find but for a simple open rectangular shelter it can be done with pipes and connectors from Bunnings plus a tarp. There are free plans online. You could even make the waterproofing full length and in an inconspicuous colour.
Perhaps that would hide the food bowl from her and offer the cats protection from the rain.
I’m out of the loop on this, what happened?
Dumb bitch threw away the strays food because of her “beliefs”.
Fuck that.
what? 😕
making animals suffer doesn’t sound very spiritual
Think maybe the cat family he’s been looking after has had their food thrown away when he feeds them.
Probably. People do that to my wildlife water :(
yes, I think that’s what has happened. It’s awful.
Billion dollar idea: Computer software that adjusts monitor output to people’s glasses prescription - so they don’t need to wear glasses while they’re working/gaming etc. 🤔
🤣 that’s awesome
Had a pretty good day. Nice end to the week. Had some time to chat with the CEO which was good. He’s really chill.
Guitar and rest tonight I think. I haven’t been able to play most of the last 2 weeks because of my shoulder which has been pretty rough tbh.
Have rehearsal tomorrow so will do the best I can tonight.
Here is one of the newest additions to the stray family:
Did we find Calico?

I am home, and contemplating a visit to the pub
This week can fuck right off. Work was super stressful. Time for icecream and beers
Same. I am going for wine and a new hair colour. It’s blue time baby
Don’t forget to put the black pillow cases on before the wine and dye.
Oh I long ago resigned myself to rainbow pillowcases
tips for velveting meat for tonights stirfry?
Beef, chicken or pork? Anyway
1/2 teaspoon bicarb, 30 mins, rinse, done :)
Just grated a potato, soaked and rinsed it, stirred in some pakora batter powder then deep fried it till crunchy. Holy shit I need to be careful with this culinary heroin I’ve discovered.
EDIT: I’ve also made a mix of 50/50 bbq sauce / siracha which is pretty good too.
Maybe they’ll be allowed more often if they’re baked?
Went outside and saw my mum and aunt drinking coffee, whilst other aunt had a beer.
Cheers 🍻

I woke up at like 6:30am today for some reason and got out of bed at 7:45 am. It is now nearly 3:45 pm and only NOW have I finally gotten a tiny bit started on that mindless desktop digitising stuff I was supposed to do for uni. I spent 15 minutes importing my field data and downloading a bunch of raster images and now I’m done. I’ll do the next step over the weekend. I could laugh, but I’m just glad I finally broke through the inertia - the first layer is always so hard.
Now that I’ve done at least THAT much, my reward is a shower, the last of that delicious fish curry with pappadums, and then the finale of The Pitt! 🩺
