WHISKER WALKER. Maybe if my cat was a little spookier, he’d be more confident when guests came over. This is a 16” x 12” original painting of my crazy orange, if you’d like a pet portrait with lightly menacing aura, get in touch! #surrealism #cat #devonrex #petportrait #originalart

Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians.
We should be arresting him so he can be tried in the international criminal court. Not inviting him and perpetuating the Jewish = Zionist narrative.

I had my doctor add measles antibodies (or however they check my vaccine status) in a recent blood tests. Because I wasn't 100% sure on which childhood vaccines I missed. And people keep bringing measles into the country.
Worth discussing with your doctor if you have doubts.

Because I'm talking about measles. It is also A VERY VERY VERY CONTAGIOUS VIRUS. If someone is in a room and has measles and then leaves that room and you enter that room within TWO HOURS (depending on humidity) you can get measles.
And people are contagious for four days before the rash appears.

beyond being an absolutely miserable illness, measles can cause immune amnesia. It wipes out your immune systems memory of how to fight every infection, every vaccine you've ever had.

I kind of love that the reviewer appears to have never played (or heard of??) Lemmings.
This is Lemmings Reimagined. And I appreciate the review comes from someone who mustn't have every played Lemmings and just talks of the learning curve and 'every level is winnable'.

Made the choice to spend my Hottest 100 day hanging out in Ninajirachi's discord in the 💯 Hottest channel and it's such a vibe.
I'm also loving the huge variations in reactions to music in other genres (to Nina). Love/hate/indifference. And learnt "indieslop" and "clubslop".
Good times.

This rejection of court ruling seems to legally imply superiority of Israeli Zionists over the Australian population. Implies superiority, exclusivity to define what hate speech means, that it can only affect the superior group. Surely this is blatantly unconstitutional? #auspol
