Windy days are so frustrating. They always feel like I've got a brain full of faulty power cables and a rusted, gunked-up engine of a body.

Of course! The answer was so simple all along!

One of the posts like, "I have no contact with the outside world." Without any way of contacting the outside world, he's somehow still able to spout his shit online! Call the pope, it's a miracle!

This is great, but it does beg the question: why aren't ALL offenders connected to therapeutic services to address the underlying causes of their offending?

Goofball the rooster, having finally discovered his hormones, has moved away to live with his brothers rather than having to go to freezer camp. We're all pleased with this outcome. #BackyardChickens #Rooster

Rural living hax: have a friend who loves chickens, but is allergic to eggs. "Sure, I'll adopt your excess roosters for my bachelor flock! Btw, I was thinking of hatching some babies; if I do, would you like any of the ones that turn out to be hens?" #BackyardChickens

Someone might suggest that if police officers stopped doing so much domestic violence it might take up less of their time. Not me, of course. I would never say such a thing. But someone might.

But did you do it in a "young energetic person burning the candle at both ends" way, or a "tired old person who needs an afternoon nap" kind of way?

All your craft project are belong to Max. #Crochet #MaineCoon #CatsOfBlueSky
A photo of Max, a fluffy maine coon cat, sprawling on a crocheted blanket. He's looking at the camera like he's daring you to say something. 
The blanket is a chaotic mess of mossy greens and browns; different types of yarns and stitches give it lots of texture.

I start knitting new things all the time, but I think this is the first knitted object I've actually *finished* in a few years. Behold... A scarf.
A pastel-rainbow cabled knit scarf. It has a central twisting cable with three-strand braids either side. The tension is inconsistent and a lot of the stitches are wobbly.

People think beagles are unintelligent, but they're conflating "understanding what you're asking" with "having a desire to do what you're asking". Beagles are smart enough to think about your request, and decide you're talking shit. #Beagle #DogsOfBlueSky

My parents have a beagle, Harry. He is pretty well trained... For a beagle. He was being a ratbag this evening and mum was sick of it. Mum: "Harry, in your crate." Harry: "..." #Beagle #DogsOfBlueSky
A photo of a beagle sitting on top of his crate, and decidedly not in it.

Yeah nah I'm sorry, you can't just puree root veg and pretend it's cream 😂 Nutritional yeast is powerful stuff, but you need some fats/oils and emulsifying agents in there at the very least.

In fairness, the plan is for Thriving Kids to fund (some of) those therapies, just not via MBS numbers. They're being block funded instead, so it won't go through the Medicare system at all. This isn't me endorsing TK by any stretch -- but if we're criticising it, we should be clear on the details.

“Jones works in finance and had been to one previous pro-Palestine protest. He decided to go to the Herzog rally with his wife because he didn’t think it was ‘appropriate’ for the Aust. gov to invite the head of a state that a UN commission of inquiry found committed genocide.” 🎯 #auspol #politas

Obligatory - please don't use the language "differently abled". Disabled is not a dirty word and using euphemisms just adds to the stigma.

When it was first implemented, in the trial phase, yes. The participants met with Planners directly, often multiple times, and bespoke packages were made to support that individual's unique needs and goals. Then there was a change of govt during the rollout to "Full Scheme" and it all went wrong.

For someone entirely disconnected from the space - the other three awards are pretty self explanatory, but what is the Tee-Posey actually about? Congrats regardless! 😅

Sometimes I start to fool myself into believing I've got this whole chronic illness thing under pretty good control these days. And then reality likes to remind me HAHAHA NO. #Hubris #NoSleep #ChronicIllness #Spoonie

Yesterday I was SO GOOD. I followed all the doctor's orders and protected my injured knee and focused on resting instead of squeezing the last drop out of every spoon I can find and/or steal. And so, of course, it's now 2am and I have a tesla coil for a brain. #NoSleep #ChronicIllness #Spoonie

I know a (hearing) guy whose parents were both Deaf. He says he thinks in Auslan, because it was the language he learned first and still uses most.

Roen Tree @roentree.bsky.social · 09/04/2026
Blow your 11yo's mind by telling them that some people don't think in language at all. Some think in pictures, connections and networks, shapes and textures, or with even more abstract concepts. But if a deaf person thinks in language, and sign is their main language, then yes.

Attempting to campfire-fire a wobbly little clay bowl I made out of wild clay from the wedding site. It hasn't immediately exploded, so it's already doing better than the last one. #WildClay #Campfire

A shoulders-up photo of a male chick with orange-and-black feathers. He's got a big silly crest and sideburns growing, which indicates he carries "Easter Egger" genes.A photo of two chicks, one male and one female, standing side-on to the camera. The male has a big silly crest growing that looks like a mohawk from this angle.
