[โ€“] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Cat matches the carpet. You've got to keep it now yeah

[โ€“] Eagle@aussie.zone 5 points 2 days ago

Best way to be unbothered by cat hair..... match your cat to the carpet!

[โ€“] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago

Photo evidence is demanded. Please.

[โ€“] Alamutjones@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago

CAT!

Hope the dog was consulted.

I wasn't even consulted

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago

It's really hard to say no to cats

because you just know it will be taken to a shelter and killed ๐Ÿ˜”

[โ€“] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

KITTEH! Is the new friend going to be living with you from now on?

We can't keep the cat.

The lamb is overcooked. Fuck.

Oh dear... let me dispose of that for you

[โ€“] TheWitchofThornbury2@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Roast large chunk or chops? This can be rescued. Trust me.

[โ€“] useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Thanks for the offer but, yeah itโ€™s a butterflied leg that I simply left too long in the slow cooker. In a kebab it will be camouflaged but yeah itโ€™s a bit crumbly and dry.

There's nothing that enough gravy can't fix imo.

SACRILICIOUS

When I talk about my fruit and veg guy being a bit obsessed with mushrooms....

[โ€“] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Could liven up the display a bit.

[โ€“] Alamutjones@aussie.zone 6 points 2 days ago

...he actually did, while her trial was on

[โ€“] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 6 points 2 days ago

Thank you for the recommendation , Taleya, Uggs have been acquired! Proper Uggs, fake Oddie, trackies with a tacky slogan and I am ready to veg the fuck out... after going to the supermarket, cleaning out my clothing drawers and making tacos for dinner.

Another bunch of bands on tonight I probably won't go see. It's just been a big day dealing with the kids and headaches and whatnot.

It's at Stay Gold, which I've heard is closing soon. It would be good to check something out there before that happens

My misadventures in IT last weekend have paid off.

I have an assembly line of free thin clients from work that I'm flashing then selling on marketplace.

So far I've sold 3 for a couple hundred a piece.

One chicken is now in the oven, roasting. There is even stuffing.

[โ€“] StudChud@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Uh today is a smoke-a-bunch-of-joints-and-watch-horror-movies kinda day ๐Ÿค˜

[โ€“] PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago

Closest I can do is take the Minipeelers to see Backrooms. Wasn't really a horror.

[โ€“] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Let me know what you watch! I can't actually handle watching horror movies, but I love reading the wikipedia articles and/or the scripts!

[โ€“] StudChud@aussie.zone 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Ooo well! I watched Impetigore (2019) the other night, which is quite the folk horror. The lead actress (Tara Basro) is really good! She's in another film I'm gonna watch today called Satan's Slaves (2017). I think she's an Indonesian scream queen lol. Edit: she's also hot af lol

I really enjoyed Impetigore, doesn't rely heavily on jump scares, more the horror of the mystery and some quite neat gore scenes.

I also watched Heresy (2024), a Dutch folk horror about a woman in a medieval village. It was such a delight to watch, visually stunning and deep for only an hour long. If you want to watch a critique and breakdown, I recommend this video https://youtu.be/dZ2En8dfdms by Rocklin Graves Productions (one of my go-to horror channels).

I'm impatiently waiting for Cure (1997) and Pulse (2001) to release on Shudder (another 2 weeks), both directed by Kiyoshi Kurosawa. I've heard amazing things about those films and him, I'm excited about experiencing them for myself.

I donโ€™t use my IKEA toolbox very oftenโ€ฆbut when I do, it is JUST the thing

[โ€“] Alamutjones@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago

Nothing brings me more happiness on a regular basis than the SILENT JOY toddlers experience when they see my scooter.

Their faces just go ๐Ÿ˜ฎ and proceed to ๐Ÿ˜„
