Why did no one tell me that Sydney Sweeney “Anyone But You” romcom is a riff on Much Ado About Nothing?! It’s charming af. You had me at Bryan Brown as Leonato. 😍 (But any Sydneysider will laugh at some of the geographic liberties taken…)

web_goddess,

The really hilarious part is that the opening scene is meant to take place in the US - a long time before they go to Australia - but it’s very obviously filmed at Barangaroo. 😂

Finally the gradient on my Autumn Ginkgo Leaves scarf has reached the transition to orange! 🧶 🍃🍂

    web_goddess,

    @decryption And yet you prompted me to order one of those sweet deconstructed GameBoy art pieces, thereby increasing the amount at my house. I hope you feel proud. 😜

    It’s my favourite time of year, when Swedish TV plays a 24-7 livestream of the annual Spring moose migration. I find it very soothing. No moose yet (it’s still early days), but there’s snow, forests, rivers, and birds. Look for the SVT Play app on your phone or smart TV. (Thanks as always to @gunnargrosch for introducing me to this! My whole Aussie knitting circle are entranced every year.) 🫎 📺 https://www.svtplay.se/video/jR5Py3E/den-stora-algvandringen/idag-00-00

    I first attended the AWS Summit Sydney way back in 2017 and I remember thinking, "I want to be on that stage." I thought 2020 was going to be my year, but you all know what happened. 😷 But next week I'm finally going to get to tick off this life goal! Hope you can join us... https://aws.amazon.com/events/summits/sydney/

    “The men are experiencing Ladies Lounge, their experience of rejection is the artwork,” she said.

    That quote is my Roman Empire. I will think about it once a day for the rest of my life. 😂

    Many thanks to @shanselman for recommending the AirFly! Worked perfectly and it was great to be able to use my AirPods on the flight today… 😍✈️

    Very cute little stop motion animated documentary about #knitting and #mending. My knitting mojo has been gone for a while, but I can feel it flickering back to life… https://vimeo.com/827066711 🧶

    web_goddess,

    @timrichards This trip is on our list sometime the next few years, so this post finally motivated me to sign up for your Patreon. Looking forward to hearing more!!

    Anyone in Sydney interested in a vintage Philips stereo cabinet? The veneer is damaged in a couple spots, and you could get it restored if you want it to look schmick (and I can recommend a guy). Pick up in Chippendale. Message me if you want more info!

    My sister told me that my 15yo niece Indie was embroidering her own sneakers. “Cool,” I said, remembering how I used to doodle on mine. Then they sent me the photos. 🤯 They are STUNNING. Look at that. A TEENAGER DID THAT. 😍🐝🌸

    Hello friends! In the first half of 2024, the Snook and I will be renovating our house in Chippo and therefore need to move out for a few months. I’m looking for advice on finding short term (3-6 months) accomodation from early Feb. We need to stay relatively central in so we can get to the build site regularly. Any tips or leads? Please share any ideas!

    web_goddess,

    @slace Interesting. Hadn’t thought about that approach! Thanks for that

    Home Assistant idea: you yell out "Hey Alex/Siri/Google, HOT FLASH!" and it turns on the aircon and blasts it right in your face. (Why don't we have this? I'm blaming the patriarchy. I may have to build it myself.) 🔥 😅 ♀️
