You could very well be continuing it ALL BY YOURSELF, cos most of us don't want anything to do with them.

I took so many pics just to get these. This nearly 3 week old kitty never sits still unless he's sleeping. A new menace has certainly arrived to the household.

Ok, I think enough time has passed that I feel I can pass judgement on a horrible idea that thankfully no longer happens.

Those old cartoons with laugh tracks. What the fuck were they thinking? So stupid.

Jeez mixed emotions alright. Had some similar feelings about people in my family over the last couple of years. I don't know if i worked through them in any proper way, but they are much less on my mind now after some time has passed. It's cliche, but time does help. Hope you get through it alright.

They are creepy. I personally love how things from that era are completely fucked aesthetically. Like who designed them thinking kids will love stuffing balls into a deadeyed clown mouth abyss & why did it catch on? Did kids genuinely like this stuff? I have questions.

#WildOz I get to see a lot of beautiful wildflowers on my orchid hunts, and just bush walking around my area. They are everywhere this time of year.

One of the forms of Lechanaultia found in my area, this is the pink form, we also have a bright red, and a stunning blue form. These are like jewels spread on the ground.

Can't sleep. Been awake since 3am. I can smell bushfire smoke in the air, but all the fires are hours away. The wind must be blowing it all this way.

Oh well, maybe if I put some comfort TV shows on I might get back to sleep.

So MST3K or Star Trek Voyager? They're my ultimate calming shows.

As the climate crisis unfolds, our laissez fair governments will jostle, fighting over necessity of funding & degree of responsibility; our current disaster frameworks & responses no longer adequate for these ‘unusual’ and long-term, far-reaching, more difficult to predict events.
