I can do decent espresso art now which I'm pretty chuffed about.

You sound like an old timey whaler and it's very pleasing. Not the implications for the whales. Just the old timey sea-ness.

I've fed the wild ones snails as they seem to think they're pretty awesome. Would that be an option for domestic? Or do you run the risk of giving them whatever diseases wild snails have that they may not have a built immunity to? I suppose the possibility a snail has been poisoned is a risk too...

I think I've just answered my own question. Thanks for observing my stream of consciousness.

We have them wild in the backyard. Beautiful creatures.

That's cool!

They must have had to pull her sternum up to give her a chin. She looked like a beardless version of her brothers before the surgery

For those who haven't seen it:

Yup

The one made using the corpse

Ergh I'm guilty of repeating this bullshit when I was younger. It had been sold to me as a fact, not in what I perceived was a racist context per se - more a 'oh cool, lucky them, that makes sense gestures at basketball' way. Believe me, I get it now. Also, my mum's black... Where did I get this bullshit from? White men can't jump?

Yeah we were gifted some here in Aus. Afraid I don't get the bourbon thing. I'm a whisky girl but bourbon just tastes... Wrong? We have another really nice bottle of it (name escapes me) that we were also gifted. I'm afraid to open it in case I hate it.

Like a replica of the real one, or does it belong in a museum...?

It certainly has its place but I know too many people who swear by it as an all purpose cleaner. It just isn't. The smell is a bit much too.

Yeah, Limp Biscuit.

I unironically bought and wore a red hat too.

I think I just had a cringe aneurysm.

Laser is a thing. I haven't had to worry about bikini lines in about 15 years...

It's being made by Netflix I think. I'm 2/3rds of the way through the books. I think it lends itself well to TV because the characters are only devices to move the plot along, rather than specific identities that you can invest in/relate to etc. Interested to see how it goes.

Yeah I plateaued in my early teens. I know I'm intelligent and have a curious mind that means I read a lot, self educate etc. But I'm no smarter than my peers ever were. I was just 'advanced' as a kid. Meant I didn't take schooling seriously and formed arrogance about my abilities, well before realising that they're pretty mediocre in most things. Jack of All trades, master of none. Hold myself to ridiculous standards that I'll never meet.

Yeah I think you've got it right. But then what this suggests is the ridiculous idea that a very large proportion of the country is sucking on lead paint chips, fighting roos and fucking their sister. But we did have a vote recently that actually confirmed that, so... Maybe it's not ridiculous

just things Nazis say

Fucking hell, mate. Go measure your own skull and leave everyone else alone.

Hadn't heard it before no, but it's not my favourite of covers I've heard. The original song itself is very nostalgic for me with childhood memory attached so I love it as is. Only as an adult did I find any real meaning in the lyrics though. Can easily be palmed off as a shallow pop song I guess, but it has depth to me.
