Turns out the same part of my brain that see’s a police officer behind me and me worrying I may have accidentally robbed a bank recently is the same part that controls cooking chicken!

I was so tired when I took this that I forgot I had it, my lovely little lady politely asking me to wake up and feed her 🥰 (after screeching in the lounge room for an hour😂)

For my gamers out there, if you haven’t tried it yet, the battlefield 6 beta is up and running and it has the juice!!! Haven’t enjoyed it this much since BF3 days, just wish I had the twitchy aim I used to have lol

I think I’ve broken my cat!?!? Decided to have a couple sour cream and chive rice crackers and my cat instantly stuck her nose in the pack, gave her one to sample and she had been stuck in a cycle of dabbing it with her paw and then licking the flavour off for about 20 mins now with no end in sight.

So, 4 years I’ve been publicly out as a trans woman, 3 years of using a new name and 1 year since my legal name change. My father gave me a birthday card to his son, with full dead name on it. Last year it would have really upset me but today I’m just disappointed that I still care that he doesn’t!

What a morning, up and at ‘‘em at 5am, on the road at 6:40, ran off the road by an oncoming car on my side of the road with high beams on at 7:00, vehicle started spluttering and losing power at 7:10. Somehow made my appointment at 8:25, only been waiting for 5 years for it! What a morning!!!

Dare you to name a better role model for kids than this 80’s legend, good luck trying.
Still find myself being influenced by him all these years later, I’m convinced I’m a better person because of the one and only MacGyver!

I had a problem with eating half of my biscuits immediately after baking them, happy to say that I found a solution….. I make twice as many in one batch and I only eat a quarter! Stay tuned for more helpful tips and tricks 😅🤦🏻♀️

I’m sure there is a trick or some ancient wisdom I’m not privy to but how exactly am I supposed to make biscuits and not eat half of them the same day?!?!?!

Just finished re-watching “Fringe” for the millionth time, I don’t know if I will ever adore a group an characters the same as I do for every single person on that show. Perfection!

Getting ready for bed last night and noticed that my cat was pretty excited about something at the front door, turns out we got a visit from a cute as a button bandicoot! Couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Only wish I could have gotten a photo.

On a brighter note, my Anzac biscuits turned out amazing. Perfect blend of crispy and chewy 🤤

I like to believe that the multiverse is real. I also like to believe that I’m sucking up all the bad luck and pain so that all the other me’s out there get to enjoy their lives happy and pain free, because if I don’t then this is all pointless and cruel for zero reason.

4 years ago today something happened that saved my life, I started hrt. The lifelong depression I lived with lifted and was replaced with a bright little spark of hope. I don’t know if I’ll ever be happy with how I look and sound but I’ll never regret my decision to transition.

Not being able communicate to my cat, that thunder can’t hurt her is utterly heartbreaking! Once the storm passes we will need to have a big snuggle.

I’m all for pushing back on purity politics (my latest newsletter made that exact argument), but I also don’t think not wanting to voluntarily subject yourself to unhinged far right lunatics attacking you for posting even the most banal tweets qualifies as “purity politics.”
“Leaving X because you don’t like Elon is the kind of purity politics that landed Democrats in this mess to begin with.”
Democrats Face an Existential Crisis on X
Conversations with a dozen insiders point to a party that is unsure about whether to leave or engage with the increasingly MAGA platform.

Watched a stand up special last night on YouTube and just wanted to shout it out cause it gave me a well needed laugh.
“Cliff Cash:The long road”. @cliffcashcomedy.bsky.social thanks for the laughs, looking forward to seeing more!
