Cis-het married cat lady, retired web developer, pro-choice atheist and feminist. My train station is Lawnton, I shop at Warner, and my federal MP is a potato. #Australian

Diagnosed at 60 as #ActuallyAutistic. Still trying to work out what that means. Strong opinions, many interests, boring AF. I don't get out much because of physical limitations and fear of #COVID

Following his usual form, Peter Dutton has only contacted his constituents for the worst reasons - he wants us to vote No on the Voice.

Sorry Mr Potato Head, you wasted your time and ours.

Hope you get bitten by a tick, you horrible shit

As an aside, you really do not know how cat hair you have on your carpet until you shampoo it. Even after multiple vacuums with our best device at max power, I still left a trail of ‘wet mice’ everywhere and in the shampooer itself.

And we just have the two cats! Anyone who has more and has carpets as well, must have to shampoo every month if they don’t want to be hip-deep in hair :(

@skua Wow!

Our shampooer is a top of the range Bissell, but I still don’t know how ‘clean’ everything is after I’m done.

@olavf Rabbits are illegal as pets in my state, unfortunately. They’ve done too much environmental damage.

Shame because everyone says they make great pets :(

Good Morning Tiny Dancers. My brother and sister-in-law have popped in to borrow Dad's ute, and it has been revealed that the hideous lamp I found at Jan's place, a wooden clog with ship sails glued to it, was removed from the skip by my brother and kept.

My sister in law is unimpressed.

'The U.S. Army’s love affair with drag burned hot during World War II. Thousands of archival documents—training manuals, official memos, and photos—show the military considered drag mainstream entertainment from at least 1941 to 1945. Soldiers (men specifically) stuffed bras, applied rouge, and pulled skirts over their boots on stages large and small, from the London Palladium to makeshift platforms in combat zones.'

Had dinner out tonight with the Fam for my birthday, food average, Rum’n’Raisin gelato afterwards was tasty 🙂

I’m now the proud owner of Edward Tufte’s latest book (the first in my collection) at first scan it’s quite eclectic; plus Richard Fidler’s latest historical tome as well. I still can’t shake picturing Richard in D⋆A†A☭S when I read his books; that dates me 😉

Book cover of, The Book of Roads and Kingdoms, by Richard Fidler, cover has a geometric almost mandala looking pattern that is reminiscent of medieval Islam art
