Nature and politics fan-girl. 🦘 Pretty-much obsessed with the tawny frogmouths I share my backyard with. Voting yes was the least we could do, given everything, yet we couldn’t even fricken manage to do that. Privileged to be living in Meanjin, Australia.

After smooching up together yesterday (first pic), today they are opting for some alone time - vital for a healthy, long-term relationship. 😀
FYI, Mr Tawny is on the diagonal bracing under the back deck, lol.

Ok this article titled, ‘The NFL Is "Socialist" on Purpose, and It Exposes Republican Economic Stupidity’ is bloody great.
In the world of politics, they call it ‘socialist’, but in the world of sport, it’s called a good game.
Have also chucked it all into Alt Text in case it’s too hard to read.

I habitually rate each dog I see out in public. This one outside my local Woolies scored 11/10 - bonus point for the horse ears.❤️

Kinda surprising and pretty bloody great to be down at my local Bunnings this morning and hearing ‘We Have Survived’ by No Fixed Address playing as their muzak while I was selecting a bucket in Aisle 51. Such a gutsy, catchy song which I’d semi forgotten about.

Just walked past a bloke sitting outside a pub who was wearing a One Nation MAGA cap. As I walked past him, I said, ‘That’s the dumbest fucken cap I’ve ever seen.’

Just watched a screening of all four episodes of Bush Mechanics at the State Library of Qld this arvo. Haven’t seen it since it was on the ABC 25 years ago. So good!

When Canada gave Catherine O’Hara a big award, her Schitts Creek co-star Noah Reid serenaded her with this. 👇
Sad there’ll be no more unforgettable comedic characters from this majestic actor but very glad to have her wonderful catalogue to dip into.

Picked up an old manuscript in an op shop of what is bloody great feminist anthem (though interestingly, written by two blokes). Inside was a page of sketches offering a window into the world of, I’m guessing, a teenage girl circa 1964. ♥️
