At first I was afraid. I was petrified. I’m not actually a mealworm. Engineer, scientist, educator, galactic hitchhiker, climate advocate, amateur poet. 😄🤞🏼🦋 #Xgenclub

Do they conserve jams, or Kim Chi or pickled cucumbers?

Oasis were epic last night. A wall of sound and hooks, a huge mass of connection and anarchy. It got a little loose in a fun way. I can only assume the flares were left on the pitch by Melbourne Victory fans. Monumental.

It does, doesn’t it?

Too much info.

I had three siblings, almost a decade older than me.

Both my parents worked full time & full on: in professional jobs & running a farm.

So by the time I got to primary school, my siblings had taught me most of the secondary school curriculum (by immersion).

I’m Gen x but my siblings, who raised me, are all boomers.

I was immersed in boomer culture (literally).

My sister treated me as a literal living doll.
