Black cat angst
I haven’t heard from the rescuer so texted her again, and asked if this guy can be treated outside or needs to be confined. I’m clearing my space and buying a cheap tent to make an easy quarantine zone or keep him to be scanned…
But I’ve also told her I’m not feeling confident in the ringworm treatment and asked if she can start looking for backup foster homes because I’m not sure I’m able to take him. I’m also looking for the owners in any way I can.
It’s a hard one. I care about the cat and don’t fully want to give him up. Torn. Keep flip flopping.
I’m just trying to be responsible and let them know to start looking for a placement now rather than bite off more than I can chew and then suddenly need someone else to take him on short notice. Or just stop caring for him because I can’t.
I wish things were different. 😢
Got a big viet coffee with my banh mi to power my afternoon after a shit sleep last night. Got a few work tasks I want to knock out today. Let’s do this.
Go 'em. 🚀
Whoever reminded me about Moser Roth Madagascan vanilla chocolate from Aldi - my diet this week.does NOT thank you (but my mental health does…yummo)
Just had my interview and I think I smashed it! Should find out early next week
🤞🏻🤞🏻
Crossing all available digits in support.
Fingers crossed 🤞🏾
Onya mate 🍻
I think I’ll get some cheese cake in advance of tomorrows excitement.
Yes!!!
Trying to catch a mouse in the house.
It’s smarter than me :(
Do you need to borrow a Jack Russell? Cannot guarantee the state of your house afterwards, but th mouse will be dispatched.
‘Rent a Russell’ actually has a nice ring to it. 🤔
Trying to befriend the cat down the road for some back-up but to no avail.
You can rent a goat! Not known as great mousers despite their rep for eating absolutely anything
My brother brought home a goat because he was asked to mow the lawn. It escaped it’s pen and ate all my mum’s plants and no grass.
Clearly you must adopt a cat. Or give up eating cheese. Get the cat.
I’ve been using Affinity more now that it’s a unified free app (genius) and I’m starting to realise that I’m learning how to use it the same way I learnt how to use Photoshop. Slowly, gradually over time as I need to achieve various things.
I made this little explainer that approximates what we are seeing in the Earthset image. It makes it way easier to pick out the Indochina Peninsula and Borneo on the left of crescent Earth, and potentially a little peek of Antarctica on the right.

I went to Aldi today and there was no cheap dry pasta. Had to buy the more expensive $2.35 one. I wonder if there’s a shortage or the staff are just lazy cunts.
I don’t know why but when I go there I always get zapped. It’s so loud too. YL was about a metre away from me, not even looking at me and she heard it. When we were leaving she patted me on the back twice and I got zapped twice.
Does it happen to anyone else? Why me? And no I don’t wear synthetic shudder.
An avocado got me last time.
Wtf?
I was surprised.
Usually it’s just the milk fridge ⚡
😂
I get zapped everytime I touch something in there and sometimes it hurts.
I once was touching someone’s plant and everytime I did I got zapped. I said something is not right here and everyone laughed at me cos it wasn’t happening to them. Turned out there was a problem with the lighting/heating. I like to think I saved their house from burning down.
No pasta at Springvale Aldi, no diesel either :(
Strait of Hormuz 😔
Trumpty Dumpty. Tangerine mean.
It means that static electricity is building up in the actual room/building itself. And will discharge as soon as it can. If you are even slightly damp from the rain etc. then this will trigger the static discharge (water is a wonderful conductor and we are mostly made of water). Gold rings also can trigger a discharge.
General diagnosis - problems with the building’s electrical grounding - should be reported but it’s such an expensive fix that management often ignores it. If you can, report to the local fire brigade as it’s a known explosion risk in the event of a gas leak. And EPA. And Worksafe. I did that last time I got zapped at Norfcote Plaza. Caused no end of a hoo-ha but I haven’t been zapped there since.
It happens at every Aldi I go to. Starts in the carpark getting out of the car. I don’t see it happening to anyone else. They’re all busy shopping and I get weird looks. I don’t wear any jewellery. It has to be me for some reason I haven’t worked out.
Sometimes it’s a couple of zaps per shop. Sometimes it’s every single thing I touch.
Sounds like your car
That’s the weird thing, I wasn’t in my car today. YL drove me in her car. It happens in my husband’s car too.
Do you excitedly rub your shopping bags on the way to the aisle of mystery?
😂. No they sit in the trolley.
Sounds like the building needs an electrics overhaul to me. You only need to be the connector between the charged item (shop) and something that grounds it - then as we are mostly water we become the conductor of the electricity. In Norfcote Plaza it was happening to me every time I stepped on the metal expansion joints in the tiled floor. Didn’t matter what shoes etc. I was wearing either. And I wasn’t the only one.
I go to 3 different Aldi’s regularly, 2 are in shopping centres, one is free standing. It happens at all of them.
shoes, it’s your shoes
get safety shoes
It can’t be my shoes because I wear different shoes all the time and it’s been happening for years.
I get zapped at one of the local shopping centres in my area. Every single time.
No idea why.
How bazaar!
Yeah, makes no sense.
Been reading a kids book of Aesop’s Fables to the kids and I’m struggling to take it seriously.
The reading level its written for and the laboured metaphors of talking animals just remind me of long LinkedIn posts or really bad boomer memes.I keep telling the kids we’re going to read some stories to help us excel at B2B sales
Most of Aesop’s fables were deeply political at the time of writing and were never intended for children. They were the only safe way to speak truth to power in an autocracy. Especially for a slave like Aesop was. I suspect that they’ve been ‘edited for political correctness’ a number of times over the last 2,500 years too.
Please post the name and author lol
It says they’re retold by Ann McGovern and the intended reading level is grade 4. Copyright also goes back to 1963 so they’ve just been reprinting this thing
Good night everyone
sweet dreams 😘
brain stuck
also have a bad case of what’s the point
Behold mouse trap w/ swivelling bottle with peanut butter on swivelling dowel over a bucket of water with ramp v.2.0.1
Improvements over v1.0
-
more peanut butter
-
Soap applied to inner walls
-
Longer ramp with peanut butter.
Worked in Melbs but was after a rat not the mouse that got in.
I’m so invested!
Y’know I jus so happen to be in the business of sellin’ mousetraps. We jus got listed on Bunnings too
we will see
This is a magnificent contraption! For washing mice for your new cat.

My pumpkin vine has put out a bunch of new female flowers, it must feel like it’s in with a chance for more fruit than the 10 currently ripening. The squash and zucchini are also making a late fruiting run.
The snow peas on the collapsed trellis had some dried peas so I’ve planted those on the remaining trellis and will hopefully get some new plants growing, and also harvested some fresh snow peas from one plant which decided it’s just going to keep growing on the ground. The climbing bean is also being pretty productive at the moment, so even though I didn’t get everything growing in the garden I would have liked it has been a fairly successful year.
zucchini are also making a late fruiting run
That’s impressive. Mine were out of the ground well over a month ago.
Going into the cold this year will be bok choy, coriander, lettuce and maybe beetroot which I’ve never done and spinach.
I’ve had a good result with beetroot and a couple of other root vegies - I have a few beetroot ready to pull up now. I need to do some more planting, I haven’t really gotten onto doing any of the leafy veg yet, but I keep intending to.
You’d be shocked, last year i threw a bunch of compost in a bed in jan, giant pumpkin trellis erupted, they held and we got enough to soup all winter.
