I have decaf coffee now.
Let’s see if this thing keeps me awake at night tonight.
I exclusively drink decafe and it’s actually not bad. Just depends on what format you’re consuming.
It’s just instant variety.
Pretty basic flavour but not too bad. I don’t think it kept me up last night so that’s a plus.
good idea , I might have one too, a really hot one with caramel
Every Taylor Swift song I’ve heard has been against my will.
Why would I support a billionaire voluntarily lol
I like when other people do her songs.
Currently listening to my American country music playlist and Shake it Off just came on and I was grooving and singing along. I can shake off your hate hater. Cos I keep groovin, can’t stop, won’t stop moving… It’s like I got this music in my mind saying it’s gunna be alrighttt 🕺🕺🕺
It’s a good message, is about all the nice things I have to say about that song. My niece is in love with it; I have ended up associating Perth with Shake it Off bc of her 😂
I don’t think I could name a single one
looks like a swiftie cultist gave a thumbs down haha.
Twas force, guaranteed 😂
Nope! That wouldn’t be very “shake it off”. I also don’t have a downvote button
They walk amongst us
her wealth has nothing to do with my opinion that her songs are trite and immature
Her wealth makes me judge her for being a billionaire.
Her songs solidify the fact she has thousands of ghost writers and she is a nepo baby.
Shake it Off is wayyyy too catchy for my liking. It’s in my head bc a neighbour was playing it last night 😭
ghost writer?
then it’s a choice to be negative and whine like a teen all the time
Was gonna go to CERES community garden today, but the weather is dodgy so no guarantee the market will be on.
My oodie has been donned, and escape room game has been loaded 😙👌
Ooh what game?
The House of Da Vinci on the play store. It’s an interactive puzzle, really pretty! And puzzling! I have discovered I may think too laterally, or not laterally enough 😂

Drinks with a friend, very lovely to see 💜 consumed some Guzman y Gomez and got a noice whiskey
What whiskey?
I shall judge the niceness.
Hobart Whiskey: Tasmanian Whiskey Liqueur, and Tawny Cask Finish. Also have some of their signature but haven’t cracked that yet
Edit: the signature is “American oak, ex-bourbon matured”
As a whiskey wanker, I approve.
Bummer
The drunk aggressive homeless man is back, was drinking and swearing explosively on the bench outside. I tried to close the door quietly but the fucking thing squeaked and he was looking at my place.
He’s walked away past my place still glancing at the door. For a second I thought he was going to come knocking and was debating whether to tell him to leave or just call the cops. Thankfully he didn’t. But this is just rubbing in all the trauma from all the other derros before him, and is part of the reason I don’t like to go out. This one has also had a go at me before.
I’m trying to be grateful for the things I have and focus on what I can control, but this spot has always been rough and the pandemic made it so much worse.
There’s only 3 things in this world I don’t eat. Cantaloupe, rice pudding and porridge. Now I can add papaya to that list. Ick.
endive, ersatz chocolate, tripe
I’ve never had tripe because my mother refused to cook it after growing up with it.
I’ve never knowingly had it either. Who knows what’s in a lot of foods? 😬
👀
sausages aka mystery bags
Balsamic vinegar, pickled herring and giardiniera
Papaya is great, but can be off putting.
Mussels in vinegar are weird. I’ll still eat them but they are chewy little fuckers.
Fair. Cucumber, olives, and coffee for me. Not that coffee’s a food, but people sneak it in.
I eat/drink these things everyday. Thanks for your courage though.
Eggplants are my worst enemy. Makes me throw up.
Olives are next and then hmm anchovies?
You can definitely get bad eggplants.
Doubt it’s a coincidence it happened on 3 seperate occasions even when I didn’t know they were eggplants.
Sardines, anchovies and sardines.
same
Same but add tuna.
Bullshit. Everybody loves sardines.
Fuck someone downed thumbed you too heh.
It’s a tough crowd in here
😂
I think we can narrow this down.
Cantaloupe, rice pudding and bread n butter custard 🙅🏼♀️⛔
Bread n butter pudding is alright. Just make that shit fancy.
good bread, good butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, sultanas soaked in brandy. ( How does that sound? )
Throw some berries in there and make the proper custard and you’ve got yourself a deal.
I’ll take your hand and join you…
None of them register in my brain as food.
Crunchy peanut butter. Tripe. Oysters. Not too keen on mussels anymore either. Sushi is fine but I don’t really like the soft squish
Edit: Durian. (Haven’t had the fruit but have had durian flavoured crackers.) Also I don’t like cantaloupe
I loooovvvve oysters. Straight up. Down the hatch. No lemon. No pepper and salt.
Decided to take my (SILs) bike on the scenic foreshore front beach path back home from the shops. Usually don’t do that as people (and kids / dogs) are a bit all over the place. Anyway now I have a bell with a unicorn on it which I’m required to use by law. it also has a front basket. I didn’t use the bell but felt empowered (and got laughed at by two young girls). They didn’t have unicorn bells or a front basket so fuck em. I’m gonna get some tassels next.
In more serious news the Pt. Lonny front beach was absolutely smashed by recent swell / weather. Had a chat to a local who was walking past and she’d never seen anything like it either. Must’ve been wild.
Also got about 10 hellos from randoms which was nice.
Get some cards to weave in the spokes and really floss on em
heh yess! also maybe:
Do they still make those beads for spokes, so you can go tick tick tick as you ride?
Spokey dokes and yes they do.
Now I want a bike with a unicorn bell and a front basket lol
Batch of the house special chilli con carne is on. Should be ready for breakfast tomorrow.
half the refinish paint/stain is on the old sewing machine cabinet, the original finish was so badly damaged tho, might need a second coat
and might get a wire brush to clean up the cast iron frame and some blacking to spruce it up a bit. Then I might tackle some of the rust on the machine fittings
Ok. I’m all set for the game!
Come on Catters!
Got my chips, got some wine. I’m all primed and ready!
Rooting for the cats just for you 😺
Elder Minipeeler decided to spontaneously clean his room today, mainly and noticeably focusing on purging old school stuff. Did a thorough job and I’m very proud of him.
In the meantime Miniest made a carrot cake, with very little intervention from me (gotta make sure the batter actually ends up in the cake tin and less in the mouth lol)
Yummy. Cream cheese icing or lemon?
Cream cheese with a little lemon in it 😋
Delicious
Gorgeous! Ask Miniest to send me some (if there’s any left).
That is a most excellent cake. When is afternoon tea?
You have an excellent set of Minipeelers there :)
Tell miniest that looks like an excellent cake :)
Ate some delicious kofta, and cranked up my accompaniment to cleaning.
Once this is done, I have a new model to build, but I can’t open Bags And Bags And Bags Of Bits into an already messy apartment
I’m making kofta for dinner. Yay kofta!
Considering he’s so small, Chook is an absolute pig. The MESS, my god
They flick the husks out of their cage!
Saturday afternoon is the perfect time for “doing sweet fuck all”. This is my recharge time from the work week.
Sunday is for chores etc.
But Saturday afternoon is blissful nothingness.
My chores are done for today. Finally getting some food then I’m doing SFA till my Geelong Cats play this late afternoon.
Almost feels like I didn’t get much done in the end and it’s Already so late.
