Being in Australia, crab rangoon isn't a thing. I've not seen it in a restaurant. I finally got fed up with reading about it and made my own. Airfried, as I don't do deepfrying.

I've been playing various theremins as a colour instrument for a few years, incl regular Halloween appearances. Last weekend I felt for the first time that I had some mastery. Here's the last 30 sec of me kicking arse on the solo of Pink Pony Club, on an average recording. :)

MOM: You can’t spend all day moping. Not on Lottery’s Eve!

Came across this very #auspol themed EP and thought it deserved to be shared. It does a good job of capturing the shame and anger I feel about the Albanese govt's moral weakness.

The incredibly muted political response to sovereign citizens being responsible for the murder of four police officers in 12 months is remarkable. The police / spook / political / media extremist framework is clearly only designed to be deployed against Islamic extremism, any other form breaks it.

I think the military brigade that arrested Hero Sandwich man (attorney and UsAF vet willing to go voluntarily) was a larger contingent than the Seals that got to Osama bin Laden. That it has come to this! I can only imagine what a show of force it would have taken the US military to get Ann Frank.
