This is what Twitter used to be: somewhere where you can give a general moan because your body is itching with the wind and you can't wait for autumn. Yes auroras are cool but if this keeps up I will need to put mittens on.

Puppies are the best but the funniest-annoying as well. I'm convinced Juno rolls in the buzzies because she wants an hour of grooming afterwards. Also, she detests my attention to a laptop and a cup of coffee. I'm learning to type with my left-hand only.

I know films and tv aren't real but I wonder if Trump has ever seen Fargo, or literally any Greenlandic noir. I have the very strong impression that they're not people to mess with.

I wish I hadn't eaten a quarter pounder for dinner. It had been too long between them to remember how gross I feel the next day. Like a gut hangover. But I just couldn't be bothered cooking. Hoping for second coffee to whisker it through the system before work otherwise things are looking grim.

A friend is living a best life and my epiphany was: most people say 'Im off to bed'. Kudos to living and understanding risk is better than poodling off to bed.

Hey @brocklesnitch.bsky.social thank you for your article on vertigo. It's so weird, so debilitating and I refuse to make it feel embarrassing because it aint something that is a fault. Would love your thoughts on how to deal.

Phantom of the Opera is officially banned from my hearing. Just had a flashback to endless nights holding hands with dying grandmother and I hate musicals. I hated them before that, and now I seriously dislike them even more.

After a rough start to the day I am infinitely cheered to remember the new series of #QueerEye is up. A couple of episodes and I may well feel capable of something more useful than simply eating something. *very weak happy dance*

Note to self: you are not allowed to skip breakfast, you are much more likely to have a wee panic attack *she says as she forces down an omelette on toast post wee panic attack. How terribly boringly embarrassing. I have come to believe that life is just a string of embarrassing moments.

Unfortunately, in an era of streaming, I'm finding myself wanting to skip to the next Trump insanity.

Lock out laws ended. Good lord. Damn living in Woolloomooloo for that duration but being a devotee of the Cross for so long before that ridiculousness.

I'm just a bit dumbfounded why we can't have Australia Day date changed. The date we rock up for a barbecue and sing pub rock doesn't matter and is only better if it's not celebrating colonial rule - but is for this land and these peoples in.it.

You know you've got a good 'un when they put on a political doco to help you calm down from a stress tree. There isn't much better than feeling like you're not an arsehole than world context.

Wot I luv about trending topics... I had to find out why #antiquesroadshow was trending and I was not disappointed. My only question now is when will this episode air in Australia?

Can we make it a rule that no one calls relatives between 6 and 8? That's coking, that's dinner and the news. Those of us who do these things really want to accommodate but would like intermission to do so.

What kind of people say they're coming for lunch and they will arrive at 10am? That's not natural. 1. You ask what time your hosts would like to you arrive. 2. It's not natural to eat lunch at 10am - that's brunch, baby and often too early for that.

One of the most tantalising feelings is when a nostril is almost going to clear and give that sweet breathing relief.
