squirrel: *points gun*
me: what do you want me to do?
squirrel: *gestures at sign*
me: alright, i get it *opens book drop*
squirrel: *makes hurry-up motion*
me: NOT A SQUIRREL!
squirrel: *disappears into book drop*
me: *whispers* forgive me, keith
Sign on a library book drop sign requesting people to yell "NOT A SQUIRREL" to confirm they are human and not a squirrel trying to steal Keith's lunch.

This is Link. His ball suddenly went missing and then reappeared trapped under his bed. He called his brother Otto in for backup, knowing they'd need all three of their collective brain cells to get it back. 12/10 for both (IG: thegoldenbruvs)

Daughter has just told me tips on how she is going to improve her freestyle. I said is that from your swimming teacher? No, off youtube!

I also said, we didn't have youtube when I was a kid!

So I drove from Albany to Esperance yesterday afternoon, can you tell it's spring?! Time to wash the windscreen.

Volunteering doesn't have to be a big time commitment.

Changing careers can be scary but volunteering can make it easier
If you're considering a career change, or want a taste of a new industry, volunteering can be a great option.

I'm ever so grateful that there are absolute champions like @drkyliesoanes.bsky.social showing us how humans and other life can and must share cities. Thank you, Kylie! www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...
We need more housing, but Kylie says nature belongs in cities too
Kylie Soanes says urban development should not come at the expense of nature and there's no reason why we should not spot a fairy wren on the way to the bus stop.

The leafy seadragon is one of the ocean’s greatest masters of disguise
Found only in the waters off southern and western Australia, it looks less like an animal and more like a drifting piece of seaweed
Its body is covered in elaborate leaf-like appendages that sway with the currents.

Went to see Beauty and the Beast in Perth. So good! It's times like these, when it would be handy living a few hours closer to the city, so we could attend more concerts, gallery exhibitions, comedy and plays.

Diver shoes, made of bits of leather and rubber, in a pearl shop in Broome. Tram base on tracks, in the footpath right in front of greenery with fusion art piece in Broome roundabout. Blue sky and red/terracotta buildings in distance.

Yesterday I donated signed copies of my books to The Footpath Library - the only org in Aus that provides mobile library outreach services to people experiencing homelessness.

They have a mobile library in Perth where homeless people can access free books, reading glasses, a cuppa & a conversation.

"Prompting claims that the money of everyday Australians is inadvertently helping Russia fund its war against Ukraine." Not good.
