Bahahaha spare for guest hounds please! Also I have deep professional shame someone beat (bee-at) me to that story

And if your dogs are as captivated as my dog by any insect, you’ve created engagement for multiple mammals here

I missed this!! I feel much the same about turbo chooks, they are ripper birds. I’ll do the noise at him right now and see if he enjoys it

Just reposting this which I think is the most gorgeous thing I have seen in my career - a critically endangered orange-bellied parrot feeding on a carpet of daisies after an ecological burn. This was the first time they’d had the chance to feed naturally in 15y and was wonderful to witness 😭😭😭🧡🧡🧡🧡

Oh no, what a horrible responsibility. Thanks for loving their little fluff and trying everything you could. And thanks for everything to Myf, no doubt the best of girls.

I was handed a glass of their pinot gris recently and I’m still thinking about it, it was bloody delicious! Thanks again @vintagetasmania.bsky.social I’ll have to give their red a go

And here was I forgetting the garnish. Bob had to get his own coriander tonight, the poor pup

Edenglassie by Melissa Lucashenko is perfection. Also Karen Brooks! Any of hers. Pedantic research with vivid plots.

I've just found the best hack. Swear in your search request. It's a great way to bypass the AI summary and make your search history look like you're chronically pissed off at everything!

I had a chat with Helen Shield at ABC Hobart about our SimCity twinning hopes www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...
abc.net.au
The Tassie community wanting to twin town with SimCity - ABC listen
Residents in the tiny Tasmanian town of Fingal have proposed town twinning with virtual video game SimCity to breathe life back into their community.

I thought you meant you were featured in the episode! Which would have inspired me to watch my first ep ever. But is a bit weird, on reflection

Great to see more folk from #tasmania still arriving here every day! Here are two starter packs of Tasmanian users that might help you find some familiar faces. These links can also be shared on other platforms to encourage folk to make the move over here! go.bsky.app/Dhstko4 go.bsky.app/QdK7iXR

My phone is an ancient potato which can’t do night photos so it picks up not much more than the naked eye. View from my balcony tonight is therefore pretty much this #aurora #realisticaurora #stilldamncool #auroraaustralis
View of night sky over a nearby mountain, there’s a distinct green glow shooting up and as a curtain of light. It gets purplish above that, and moody clouds hang over it all in the foreground Green and purple glow reaching high into the night sky. It’s muted but beautiful

Let these furry tanks mark your new year with cubes of joy #wombat
Sandy-blond wombat nibbling on grass, it’s an especially furry and adorable tank of a creature Light brown wombat in the foreground nibbling around convict (?) bricks in the grass. A small heritage cottage stands on the hill in the background, looking out over pristine turquoise sea. Mainland Lutruwita/Tasmania is visible across the passage in the distance
