They/them, lyluequonny lands, queer and disabled. Cats, crochet, and critters.
How are your body and soul doing after all that?

(Normally it's series hangover, but Infinite Jest is longer than a lot of series, so)

Book hangover is real and can be devastating

It was definitely "yeah sure".

Wow. There's a whole lot more depth to this than the usual "progressive with a conservative family" family-get-together arguments. I wish you'd got the chance to talk to him about it directly.

People are always "oooh aaah Australian wildlife is so dangerous, scary upside down land" but you know what we don't have? LITERALLY ANY LARGE LAND PREDATORS. Y'all are cray.

Nothing stops crime like *checks notes* removing people's legal means for accessing the necessities of life

Oh, that one is lovely! I hadn't seen it before.

For bonus ancestor-connection vibes: sea lettuce fries up into an excellent snack (after rinsing well, obviously)

And now it's chill time with my feet up and a happy sleepy cat on my lap, and reflecting on how extraordinarily lucky we are.

Days like these are what it's all for.

Gardening was planting raspberry canes we got from the crop swap, and some free tomato seedlings from the local food resilience program.

Biochar burning times were assisted by our very lovely neighbour, who is excellent company.

Crops we took to the swap were grown in our raised beds that were put together as part of food resilience workshop a few years back.

Baking was done in our new (2nd hand) cooker, installed yesterday after months without an oven, and fed to gaming friends.

I know the rules for Hobart 'burbs are that it just needs to be contained in a firepot/proper fire pit. Not sure about y'all eastern shore types but I suspect it's the same.

Oh boy. Burning shit is usually my go-to. Firepot in the backyard...?

Ergh. I'm glad you're confident she'll come around, but that's gotta feel sucky. I'm sorry.

Luck!! How did it go?

OMFG. That's some fresh bullshit. Godspeed

Haven't been keeping up. What flavour of slow descent into dystopia are we talking here?

Absolutely baffling. Even if you somehow got it the same day it was sent, who can get a therapist appointment inside a fortnight?

What's the decision in question?

Any parliamentarian engagement this round? Surely they must be aware by now.

Can't go past Brenda, but the tiny marsupial of hope is a close second
