Shit man, that’s bleak.

Were most of your pursuits for your own enjoyment? Nothing wrong with that at all. But maybe that’s the next thing- doing stuff for community/others. That seems a bottomless well of satisfaction.

I fucking love his little face and resting arms

The book is so much better.

Playing whack a mole with my neighbours ivy. Keeps popping up on my side of the fence. Fuck whoever brought it to Australia.

Back for me because I have a pretty disgusted, annoyed resting face. If I sit too close I’m focusing too much on keeping a pleasant listening face that I don’t pay enough attention to the material and give myself a tension headache.

Oh mine got the memo. They lay peacefully, horizontally in my jaw, like little Saddam Husseins until they decided they wanted to visit other parts of my jaw and make friends along the way.

Snip snip

Sportsball is kinda a shit term - you don’t have to like sports and yes society venerates it over far more important achievements/pursuits, but it’s a bit childish to refer to it in that way.

My theory is that a lot of that kind of poor behaviour is generally from men who have grown up with the toxic masculinity traits of believing that sad is bad, angry is manly. I’ve seen people openly weep over the outcomes of a game - I think these people are feeling the same emotions but haven’t been given the societal permission to express it in its true form. So they do angry instead. It’s not acceptable at all but that’s what I think the reason is.

Cowardly fuckin Australia

50% paper 🤣 I understand this. My body is a desert.

No I saw a documentary and they fly at you like torpedoes

This sounds incredible, thank you for posting. But now I’m left with wondering which edition I should try and get…

Plain grey ball cap every time I step outdoors in anything less than smart casual. Slip slop slap and slide, kids.

Yep, that’s exactly how it works. They’re douchebags but this is how TMs work.

I like to dance in the shower. I’m basically driving behind the logging truck.

Nah that’s the currawong

Having bought 2 in my lifetime so far my approach has always been to say bugger all to the agent. I owe them nothing. If I have questions I ask, if they ask me questions I give them the most limited information possible, obviously being polite. I always kept my cards close to my chest until it was time to lift the auction paddle.

Say very little; it’s none of their business. Dress how you normally would.

Fuck

I’ve heard this phenomenon. That us Aussies go over there, especially to the south and are shocked at how cheerful ppl are with their small chat and how you goings as compared to here where we’re less inclined to strike up a conversation with a random.

But then I’ve had American friends explain that it’s all surface. That smiling yank agrees with Trump or reports their neighbours to the HOA for having grass over a centimetre high, or wants to go back to the good old days when the blacks knew their place.

Half the country wants Trump back. Fuck that.
