10 years ago today I posted this on Facebook. Who could have known I would be so prescient back then?

I have a 4000 word Uni assignment to do so I’ve focused only on that for the last two days. Now all my clothes are washed. The kitchen floors are washed and the carpets vacuumed. I’ve batch cooked enough meals for the next seven months and the apartment looks spotless. Words 0. So far so good. 🤷‍♂️

I’ve created a support group for all the far right, neoliberal numpties. It’s called Society of Permanently Enraged Shit Heads (SPESH). All One Nation supporters are automatic members.

I am 70 and an unapologetically woke leftie progressive. I’m happy about how I live my life, values and views. I won’t deal with neo liberals, ultra conservatives, misogynists and MAGATS. If there’s anything in this you don’t like, just move on. No need to comment. Offensive shit will be blocked.

If you are a Christian and offended by this please pray for my immortal soul. I’ll just be chuckling. Thanks to Kath and Kim for planting this idea in me. IYKNK Mary and the three wise men at the adoration of the baby cheeses.

Ikea founder, Ingvar Kampgrad, was buried in a coffin developed by IKEA. The Karkedit. When he got to heaven, he was forced to walk through all of Heaven before getting to his section.

Hi. After much deliberation I deleted X about 5 weeks ago. I haven’t missed it at all with its doom scrolling algorithms but I’m missing something that Bluesky isn’t giving me. So I’ve joined Threads. Anyone from here who also uses Threads please hit me up so we can connect there too.

I find it really annoying when people don’t know the difference between entomology and etymology. It bugs me in ways I can’t put into words.

Pope Francis has done Australia one last service with his passing. Dutton and Albanese have both cancelled all electioneering out of respect.

Just saw a post on the other place that called Donald Trump, Trumplethinskin. Sheer brilliance. I’m adopting it for the next 4 years. Can we get it trending? #Trumplethinskin

BOOM! Bishop Mariann Budde has responded to her critics who told her to apologize to Donald Trump. “I am not going to apologize for asking for mercy for others.” Smash that repost if you agree she owes Trump ZERO apologies!! 🦋

The US has always presented itself as the bastion of democracy, the world’s policeman and the greatest economy on Earth. But its halo has slipped. How can America expect to be taken seriously in the future when it chose to elect Donald Trump as President, not once, but twice? The US is in decline.

I’m quite enjoying BlueSky as a platform but it’s annoying the hell out of me that I have 491 followers, of which about 400 are predominantly young women with few followers and zero posts. What’s the point? There’s no attempt at interaction.

I am sitting watching a documentary about the Battle of Britain. Sitting alongside me is my 89yo mother who actually lived through it as a 6yo. How awesome is that? Living history.

After a very difficult year I saw this today. It’s the most spiritually uplifting thing I’ve seen all year. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Be sure to start atvthe beginning. Dedicated to my 12yo Granddaughter who is not defined by her Downs. Our shining star. www.facebook.com/share/r/vbSo...

@nancycato.bsky.social thanks for following me back. I was an avid watcher of the Magic Circle Club and Adventure Island straight after school in the 60's. Seeing your bio brought back so many great memories.

I live in a small apartment bloc but have been able to establish a small productive communal garden with raised beds and pots. After 2 years of languishing unloved it is now fully rejuvenated and planted out. It really gives me a good feeling about it being productive again and looking so good.

There is no problem facing Australia to which Peter Dutton is the answer.
