I just feel like my current aesthetic lacks a cohesive narrative, ya know?!

Oh America, I’m just so bloody sad for you right now. 😔

Weird flex, but okay…

Well this is an unexpected plot twist. 🤔 This one scored a 9.2 on the cognitive dissonance meter.
Oh my god, Trump actually got the NRA to come out to defend trans people owning a gun.

Well this will end badly… 🤨😅

The process of (some) men handing over the weight of the world to women can be so gradual, we barely notice.

I remember waddling into hospital in labor with a bulky backpack, as my partner marched off ahead, scowling.

A nurse stopped me and called him back to take the pack. Allies matter.

This is actually so sad. This is how some men are out here operating. All the weight on the woman. They just one of the kids.

This chainsaw safety and maintenance course I’m doing really encourages students to shoot for the stars! ✨

Sometimes I whisper words of encouragement to the stuffed animals waiting at the op shop to be adopted.

Operation Eat Like a Grown Up: This mushroom and rocket risotto is so grown up it has a living will and just cleaned out the gutters.

I made baba ganoush with my veggie box eggplants. It’s a marked departure from what I normally do with eggplants (ie. leave them in the fridge until they liquify and then toss them in the compost).

Feedback so far includes, “It made me feel sick, because of the taste.” Trying new things is fun! 😁

This is how I feel just existing in 2025. And given the deeply troubled relationship I’ve had with existing over the years, that’s pretty sucky.

Messaging my ten year old. Never felt more like a mildly confused boomer. 😆

…Also an accurate depiction of me at my May 4th, Star Wars themed wedding. Happy 10th anniversary to my ex-husband. They said we’d never last…and they were 100% right. (We really should have listened to them. They’re waaaaaaay smarter than us.) 🥂

My ex-husband and I had a May 4th, themed wedding 🙄, so this day is still close to my heart. I might just send this to him for old times’ sake.

May Babylon 5 be with you or whatever, babe. No hard feelings… 😘😬😆

I don’t think I’ve ever been so relieved by an election result before. 😅 #Auspol

Feeling super proud at Tyrepower. I remembered to turn Bluetooth off so my graphic crime podcast won’t automatically connect and start playing from my phone when the tyre guy moves my car. #WinningAtLife

I don’t want to accuse the ABC of bias and Lord knows, I wish Dutton would crawl back into the primordial swamp he emerged from, but multiple paragraphs (& pic) on 3 random dogs supporting Albo vs. a single sentence on a former PM’s support of Dutton was an interesting journalistic choice. 😆 #Auspol

Bummer if you’ve been getting those unsolicited texts from Trumpet of Wankers™️. The head wanker has removed his phone numbers from his online profile. I guess he’s not a fan of unsolicited texts either. We feel you, bro!

Anyhoo, here’s a screenshot from before the deletion… #Auspol

A friend waiting silently in line to vote early was just harassed by other voters, because they weren’t holding a Liberal how to vote card. “Why is it that don't you know what's good for this country?” Remember when it was a secret ballot and we all minded our own fucking business?! #Auspol

You can’t punish people out of disability and/or disadvantage. Stop punching down to score political points. #Auspol

Well shit, what does it say about you when Autism Speaks finds your views on autism abhorrent?

Trans people who are still coming out in the US every day right now, choosing their names and pronouns, getting new clothes and haircuts, starting HRT, and getting their surgeries are some of the fucking bravest people alive and I am so proud of you ❤️‍🔥

The #end, when it came, was devoid of poetry. His mum consoled herself with the fact that he’d had $5 left in his wallet for food or enough petrol to bring him home, if that’s what he’d wanted. Instead he chose to die alone in the cramped backseat of our faded red Datsun 240K. #vss365
