Funny and true and well worth a watch, not just because it features friend of the @theshot.net.au @purplepingers.bsky.social!

Oh I love this! Do you have salt on other things? Did you always prefer hot chips without salt?

I’ve been trying to figure out what day this happens because we stumbled on it a few years ago and were able to do sneaky doorstep produce deliveries to a few mates because there was just so much stuff!

Long haired grey and white Smithfield x Koolie dog laying on a black couch his face in side profile showing a crown of some kind of weeds from the back yard wrapped on his head, ears and nose.

Looked up from my tea to see this majestic creature on my couch.

I love this! And contentment ritual is such a beautiful descriptor. We have a particular lawn on one of our walks that evokes this response and sometimes a lie down in which I just sit on the footpath and admire the view while I wait. I want to send them a thank you card for their lush grass.

I was deeply disappointed by the lack of nature/science/climate/enviro on many major end-of-year book listsβ€”so I decided to make my own!

I’m not begging for food, I’m just closely supervising.

That’s reads weird 😳
I just meant psychologically it must be so hard when every health professional you come across doesn’t acknowledge it. Her school is about to perform dances with many different schools coming together to practice in poorly ventilated spaces where they won’t even crack a window.

Please send him my support x

I remember when my dermatologist stopped masking earlier this year and it broke my heart as it had made me feel less alone that they were previously hardcore about masks, but this time, at reception, she said with distaste, β€˜ugh, you don’t need to wear that anymore!’

Nice to see you too! X
Would you believe I saw you crossing the street just a few days ago and almost yelled howdy from the car ❀️

Hi Millie, ME/CFS for 30 years, baseline got smashed after vaccines and haven’t got back to where I was. Have been masking indoors and crowded outdoor spaces since borders reopened, but have teenager who doesn’t mask so constantly on edge to be honest! (But I totally understand the social pressure)

Oh my, I’m so glad you did this! My daughters have told me about some doozies and I so wanted to see them all! My youngest (17) came home with one because she liked the colours. I asked her to research the words and images, and it was promptly figured out it wasn’t remotely appropriate to wear πŸ˜‚

He’s been letting our neighbourhood know since around 5am that there is thunder and lightning. (Not much in the way of rain yet though…)

Same same, like chest exploding sobbing. It’s a big response, but it feels appropriate, even though it’s entirely out of my control.

And then I started sharing bits and pieces that I’d written here and there. I couldn’t really edit them or think too much about them or they’d turn to ash or smoke and get carried away on the winds of inspiration to someone else who would love them unconditionally. So I just let them be.

I shared an essay with a friend. I can’t really remember what it was about? Maybe what it meant to be responsible in this world? I can’t recall. Anyway, he really liked it and didn’t care that it was far from brilliant. So I trained myself not to care either.

Is this like the, are you a socks or no socks kind of autistic? Because I’ve never been able to eat plain pasta, it doesn’t make sense to me. Genuinely, please explain to me the attractiveness of plain pasta, because I feel like it’s closer to wet cardboard than food… I need to understand. Xx
