Worse than that

All brassicas are mustard.

All the brassica vegetables you’ve ever eaten are genetically mustard.

Ngl, installing a holiday home for my sons pet lizard in my office is one of the best ideas I’ve ever a) had and b) actually executed

This is interesting. The best way they could come up with to soften & socialise the social media ban is to try and call the ban a ‘delay’.

It won’t work (unless journos roll over, and even then unlikely) but it’s worth noting this is the best they could come up with. @cameronwilson.bsky.social

Every now and then a panel really knocks me out, structurally speaking.

A) I thank you it is leftover baked chicken, tofu, and greens with Lao Gan Ma chili crisp and B) thank you also for the opportunity to flex because I grew those gosh darn greens

Today in ‘Not thinking straight with a (mild?) virus’:

I used red wine vinegar instead of rice wine vinegar to season my lunch.

It’s… not too bad?

Ian.

I respect you, and you respect games.

Two days ago I beat 'snake'. I found the boundary of the game, and hit it.

Not one single person I know in real life is sufficiently impressed by this achievement.

Please clap.

Just fyi

I made my son’s lizard a secondary residence in my office so she can come chill with me during the working day

Don’t pretend you’re not jealous.

That’s us in (seat of) canberra. The voices for team couldn’t settle on a candidate so I’m volunteering for the indie in the next electorate down.

Here’s a Photo from induction yesterday

What does the independents movement look like?

Fibro community centres, as god intended.

I might be old but there’s something monumentally reassuring to me about big ambitions in unlovely spaces.

You don’t have to do much, you know. A couple of hours volunteering for the election is A+.

@dancarlin.bsky.social Dan. I am on an Assyrian kick and want to buy Judgement at Nineveh. But I can’t - I literally don’t use any of these services. I have a credit card like everyone else.

What can I do to convince you to take my money?

Hello from the @davidpocock.bsky.social town hall on health costs! Got this shot mid transition. Unsurprisingly, the hip & funky new incentives for GPs to bulk bill are not changing GP bulk billing - accident to GPs.

This is the year I finally got serious about the veggie garden. All the veg on this plate is from the garden and yes I unbearably smug about it.

2 tips:

1) once you’ve weeded back to zero lay down more pea Star than you think possible

2) HERBS. Exxy at Coles and ready to grow. Go hard on herbs.
