Can I please half of a microwaved sweet potato, but instead of longways half or shortways half, can you make it a spiral half? Lots of butter and hot sauce

I hadn't seen or heard the local magpie or his fledgling (swoopy Boi and bebbe to their mates ..ahem..me) but they both came down to say hi as I left the train station. Little one had a sing at me. Then we all got swooped by a pair of red wattlebirds....

Am waiting on a delivery today. It was headed in the right direction and not far away, but then veered off and now seems to have gone to Ascot Vale Red Rooster

Essendon DFO now. Had a snack, doing some shopping

Checked out the planes at Tullamarine and is now roaming the western suburbs. Go West, young man

Lol how would you like it if someone took a photo of your bedroom and posted it on the internet? Hm? /Jk 😅

The homelessness is getting worse, it's plain to hear and see.

As long as housing is treated as an investment, rather than a necessity and a human right, it will continue to get worse.

Edit: jk

I see your point, but if your bedroom is portable and you put it where there are a thousand cameras are known to be going past it (phones and dashcams), I don't think you could reasonably assume any level of privacy.

On the other hand, if your intent is to raise awareness of the plight of people, putting your portable right in people's faces is a great plan. I wonder how a tent embassy on the steps of Parliament would go?

Mmm fair. I wouldn't have if I could see anyone I guess, and it felt like quite a... thing... to share.

This picture is haunting. For lots of personal reasons. Jesus.

I feel like I want to treat myself to a meal or something this week.

I’ve been doing so much home cooking to save on costs it’s actually been ages since I had a meal out.

I do look at a lot of reviews and photos of food at cafe but with the increased cost most of it seems to be a very poor way to spend money.

On the other hand I’m awfully tempted to try out Marlo’s Schnitzel maybe or purchasing a mystery pizza.

Yes, mystery pizza, you pay for it for a reduced cost but you don’t actually know what you’re going to get till you pick it up.

It’s an initiative to save on wasting food and ingredients.
