My new fridge will be arriving Wednesday, so I ended up wasting half the day browsing fridge storage containers. I have also rearranged the space it's going into a couple of times and probably will a few more times before I settle on what I want to do. I have managed to get rid of some stuff, including some old spices and a ridiculous number of plastic bags. Why I had three separate plastic bag stashes in such a small area I do not know.

The majority no vote reflects a few things:

• Many are uncomfortable with race based provisions in the constitution ( the fact one is already there didn't mean we should add another - it's an argument to remove it).
• Australians don't trust politicians or activists and need a higher standard of proof that something is going to work before putting something in the constitution forever.
• While Australians are not against taking action to assist aboriginals in need (or anyone else for that matter), they are strongly committed to equality in law and in representation in the constitution. Any assistance targeted at particular groups should be accountable, specific and temporary. If an ill defined body is embedded forever and becomes untouchable no matter it's effectiveness, this creates conditions for corruption.
• Australians are practical people and are not easily moved by rhetoric.
• Australians will resist moralizing and condescension.
• Australians are tired of lip service, committees and reports saying the same thing.

What I find very disappointing about the Yes campaign and some yes voters is that they have taken no responsibility for the loss. There doesn't seem to be any consideration of the possibility that the Voice was not the best idea, or any consideration that the campaigning for it was poor. Instead everyone who voted no is branded as racist or dumb . There is an arrogance here which has ultimately led to what is shaping up to be a crushing defeat, and unfortunately this arrogance continues post mortem. Nor does there seem to be much respect for the will of the people, which the outcome of this referendum represents.

What I would expect the government to say at this point : "We fucked up and we take accountability. We ran a very needless, damaging and divisive referendum. We need to find a better way to address the gap that involves the government actually doing their job, starting Monday".

Anyone else hear fireworks at 4am? Random.

Using version one of Glaze took all last night and into this afternoon only to throw a ‘not strong enough protection’ error… I’ve changed to the beta of version three and even after having gone up a level of intensity, it’s given me a much shorter estimate and I can see it counting down. Wow. Fingers crossed

How long can soy yogurt sit out of the fridge and still be good?

I got a delivery at 12pm, was occupied and then forgot to go get it until 5 or 6… the tubs were no longer very cold but they contain no animal products and are unopened.

That stuff is expensive 😭

Ugh, work office is so stuffy because they are playing with air quality control for night shifters, feels like I'm going to need to start gulping to get enough air in me.

I remembered the tune I woke up humming
