My husband of 5 years bought me £30 Lego for my birthday this year. I wouldn't mind so much, but he also bought himself £150 Lego the same day. Unfortunately he's not been able to finish his AT - ST walker as some of the pieces appear to have mysteriously gone missing. Shame.

Run completed at 4pm at a much more reasonable 20°C. Cool change came through as predicted. #SundayRunday

Emma Cooper @emmackat.bsky.social · 9d

Slept in and missed the window for a run before the heat built up. Will do it late this arvo after the cool change - posting for accountability. #SundayRunday

Updated reprints of 'Up The Duff' and 'Babies & Toddlers' have all the fact-checked info you need about immunisation/vaccination in Australia, how to keep pregnant people & little folk safe, including info on diseases to protect against, the truth about risks, & the recommended times to have 'em.

Hot pink background with two book covers, the yellow cover of Up The Duff, The Real Guide to Pregnancy and the lime green cover of Babies & Toddlers, by Kaz Cooke. (Me again.) The books are updated every couple of years. The book Kidwrangling and old copies of these books should be discarded, as they have old medical info in them. Up the Duff was first published in 1999. If you can't afford new copies, ask your public library to stock the latest reprint. I hereby give permission to photocopy and share the immunisation info!

Took a couple Tylenol this morning. Just enough for a day's worth of autism because it's trivia night at the pub and I want an edge 1/2

As someone with autism, I’m tired
of hearing the same false “causes” over
and over Tylenol, vaccines, you name it.
#Autism isn’t a conspiracy or a mystery
to scare people about. If you want to
understand, start by listening to us.

Every Sydney Station @sydneystations.bsky.social · Aug 2

GLENBROOK, 67km from Central, is a charming station serving a small collection of shops and cafes, and low density housing. It has two platforms, a new lift and a footbridge that only provides an exit to the north.

The platforms have lots of greenery, with well manicured gardens. (1/3)

Emma Cooper @emmackat.bsky.social · Sep 6

The more modern design is because the original station building burnt down in 1951.

This is Spud. She was offered a stick of celery today and took personal offense to that. 12/10 (IG: spud.the.cryptid)

a photo of a small beige and white pup named Spud deviously eyeing a stalk of celery dangling in front of her. the stare is absolutely menacing.

Spud has now taken a few steps back and assumed a fighting position. she’s set in downward dog as she stares at her opponent (the celery)

our tiny puppy friend is now in attack mode, making her next attempt to take on his celery enemy. the outcome is unknown.
