Very much heading into the mild hypothermia this time of year.

But there are waves:

Scientifically speaking this means you can do multiple midnight snacks without shame.

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 6 days ago

I don't see waves where I am, it's very very calm

Babies

Yes i am bloody uncomfortable with cats up the clacker

[โ€“] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 points 6 days ago

What absolute stunners!!!

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

I'm not entirely sure, but I don't think you should put cats up your clacker

Gosh they're beautiful! What a bevy of beautiful pusses

Max is bloody huge.

behold

Both the same age. No, this is not a matter of angles, the size difference is ridiculous. Sam's gonna be riding Max like a pony soon.

[โ€“] Catfish@aussie.zone 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Yikes! They are littermates yes? Genes are fucking weird.

[โ€“] Taleya@aussie.zone 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Oh god no, but they are a bonded pair.

Sammy's a standard shorthair, Max is part ragdoll, part maine coon, and a chunk of golden retriever

Red wine and edibles kind of evening.

Shame on you. No cheese deserves to be called shitty.

[โ€“] mertn22@aussie.zone 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I respectfully disagree: Uncle Tobys Le Snak Tasty Cheese Value Pack Dip & Crackers School Lunchbox Snacks That is definitely shitty cheese.

My dog and I like those ๐Ÿ˜‚

[โ€“] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

What about that 'grated parmesan' that comes in a tube and smells like vomit?

All good. I make Sizzler toast with that.

[โ€“] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Depends on the cow.

Edit: no.. depends on the owner of the cow I'm not blaming bovines here I was wrong.

[โ€“] SituationCake@aussie.zone 1 points 6 days ago

Well of course, if you had any self respect it would be a good aged tasty cheese and a relish or chutney. Sounds delish though. Enjoy.

Have decided to not attend the destash market as I really need to do some of that myself rather than add to it. Now hunting for the large rasp to sharpen the shovel to remove the agaves to fill the hexies to... could something be simple please?

[โ€“] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 4 points 6 days ago

I need to sharpen my lawn mower blade. I think I should add the shovel & spade to the sharpening list when I do that.

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 points 6 days ago

sending words of encouragement

why always everything take at least 5 steps

[โ€“] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

sharpen the shovel

ooh. Recently got a file and hadn't thought about doing the shovel. Next on the list of shit to sharpen!

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

A sharp shovel is a weapon of magnificent destructive efficiency. Summon the zombie palm trees!
