Went to a new hairdresser today. I was nervous! But she was very good and she listened and did what I asked and now I have wisps of half flopping into my eyes, but that's ok, because it's what I actually wanted!

Perfect album that came out when you were 16:
MxPx - The Ever Passing Moment

Honourable mentions that were just the music of my teens:
Klinger - Grimshaw St
Bodyjar - How it Works
Blink 182 - Enema of the State - I was 15, but I'm counting it because All the Small Things came out when I was 16.

Stag had been going through a lot.
Each day, he drew strength from something as simple as a breath.
As he faced the morning, he’d wrap himself in gentle mist, pause, and inhale the cool, earthy air.
Moments like this - gentle, quiet and still - he could rediscover his strength.

So, how do I find people to follow on bsky without getting bombarded with politics?
Sorry, I don't want to see what Trump did today, or yesterday or plans to do tomorrow.

Not indie, but I've been playing Assassin's Creed: Shadows and have spent a lot of time taking NPC portraits.

Who needs the main quest line 😅

Something I enjoy with Assassin's Creed games is the little interaction. Shadows doesn't have much of that, so I'm just making own.

Ever since I first saw Tiny Chef singing Bad Guy, I wake up with it in my head every day.

I'm ok with this.

To end the year, I just wanted to post all four seasons of my artwork for Steam. This year was an incredible journey! 🎇

As someone who has struggled with purpose and passion for most of their life, this article by @kateforsterauthor.bsky.social is excellent!

Why do all the fun drinks have to be alcoholic? At the supermarket, it seems like there is no change or innovation in soft drink. Just the same old coke/pepsi offering, but alcohol seems to be booming!

I don't drink alcohol anymore, but would like to have a tasty drink treat occasionally.

Did my first ever pregnancy test today. So many options and a bit of information overload on the packaging.

I also felt anxious looking at them. Like it's a secret to maybe be pregnant, but not to actually be pregnant.

Congratulations are in order though. I am not pregnant. My IUD is just IUDing.

I've spent the last few days up in Cairns. Whenever I mentioned to people that I was coming here, they always exclaimed "But it's so hot!" which was entirely the point.

It's been so nice to be somewhere tropical! Such a beautiful place.

Could have been more fresh pineapple though.

I've had some great soft serve this week!

🍦Chocolate Oat Milk which was delicious! One of the best chocolate soft serves I've had.
🍦 Blueberry from a local grower. Powerful blueberry flavour. Also delicious!

Keen to get something in Steam's Autumn sale, but on a budget?

Here is my list of amazing combat-free games for less than $5USD.

Some happy, some sad, but all really good.

Never thought I'd be discussing contraception with my dentist, but here we are.

He told me that the contraceptive pill can cause gum inflammation! I was on the pill for 20 years and no one ever told me this!

Just another case of women's hormones being the worst.

I prefer to put phone, keys and wallet in my pockets and not use a bag.

These are the Rolife miniatures I've made. The book nook is my favourite, but the bookshop was the easiest.
It was nice having a more beginner accessible option to try. Way less stress and no accidentally gluing my fingers together.

So, how do I tell Bluesky to stop showing me cat girls with huge boobs art?
Have I just made it worse by posting this?
I clicked "show me less" about 5 times and it just keeps showing me more 😂
I just want to talk to people about cute games and crafts and stuff.

Yesterday I came across an post on Reddit called
"How do you respond to anyone who says Australia has no culture"
My favourite comments were:
🦘*angrily Nutbushes*
🦘I show them a picture of Fairy Bread
🦘I tell them I enjoy drinking spiders

I love that, without context, these things don't make sense!
