Today I noticed that my nipples, which once shone like headlights, now operate more like flood lights. Aging is interesting.

As usual @kentparkskeet.bsky.social is spot on. I don't miss the days of sanctioned misogyny, homophobia, racism or transphobia. I don't want a return of the white Australia policy or corporal punishment. But each to their own I suppose.

I heard an American lawyer recently profess their shock that many First world countries don't automatically extradite criminals to the USA. Don't they realise that most civilised countries oppose the dealth penalty?

Mr. Husband plays in a rock and roll band. I left this little guy on the drummer's kit for encouragement.

In my home we are very grateful for sussan ley calling herself a puck rocker because she had spikey hair and a dodgy collar because we've had a hard week and the laughs didn't go astray.

I just heard a story of a Nazi swinging a young child by the legs and smashing them into a wall to kill them and then I heard a story of Jewish soldiers shooting and starving Palestinian children and the world makes no sense to me.

Childcare worker's wages (and aged care and teachers) need to be raised to attract more employees so that centres (and schools) are not desperate for staff and greater safety and quality measures can be implemented. We need to value the professions that we entrust to care for our community.

Whenever this comes up I think about 'The Remarkable Life of Ibelin' - a documentary about a young Norwegian battling Duchenne muscular dystrophy whose parents allowed him to play WoW thinking he was wasting his time. It turned out he was living his best life, that was impossible IRL.

Mr Husband took the kid to his soccer match today. The first time, nervous, parent ref got hot and decided to take off his trakkie dacks and wear his shorts. But he wasn't wearing shorts. Mr. Husband said that's why he won't referee.

For the past week I have been bedridden with a horrible lurgy. My medicine has been binging the entire collection of Shetland on Britbox. Has anyone been there? Is it as bucolic as portrayed? My bags are packed in anticipation.

"What Israel is doing in the Gaza Strip is not happening because of Ben-Gvir and Smotrich. They aren’t even the main culprits. Blaming them and only them is self-righteousness and hypocrisy." - Gideon Levy #StopIsrael johnmenadue.com/post/2025/06...

Sanctioning Ben-Gvir and Smotrich is but a tiny, sad step in ending the Gaza massacre

Alas and alack! Woe be unto us, for we have sinned: Five countries have imposed sanctions on Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. The war in Gaza will now ...

The kid's best friend got hives and told the kid that he's allergic to square crumpets, but has no reaction to round ones. What's worrying is that my kid says his best friend is the smartest person he knows.

I don't get it. Some people decide they're more comfortable identifying with a preconceived gender identification and want to adopt the costume and mannerisms of a societal construct while harming absolutely no one and only giving themselves comfort and joy and I'm supposed to be outraged?

Earlier today the idea of a Spoon Exchange feed came up and I liked it enough that I put it together. This is auto generated based on words and phrases that might mean someone could need a kind word in a bad moment. I’ve been there. Like and share, let’s find them - if you have the spoons 😊 🙌

My kid is a school refuser. People tell me to force him to go and I'm making it easy for him to stay home. Yesterday he was in tears. 'I wish I was normal and loved school like the other kids. I wish it wasn't so hard.' Don't judge what you don't understand.
