Going to have to see your handwriting to see if Flaubert was right. (The sign of science)

Bug Hunt calls on Australia's volunteer citizen scientists to join in Australia's photographic natural database is about to get a big boost as citizen scientists are urged to join a national search.

Another good reason to stay in the present moment and notice the world around you www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

Antifacist Amphibian joining the counterprotest outside State Parliament today in Melbourne. I love you. I love you so much.

Ah yes, now that I have documented my feelings of my second cousin on your bluesky feed 😅

There's much to be learned from Flaubert!

Man, Flaubert was a freaking genius!

My second cousin is hot 😅🙊

Looking forward to getting my ears on the audiobook!

The new antenna that could theoretically receive a phone call from Mars A second deep space antenna opened in a tiny monastic town in Western Australia could help unlock the secrets of the universe.

Golly, that works on so many levels, doesn't it?

Fun fact, Fox Gloves used to be used to treat epilepsy. I found it an odd synchronicity when they started appearing in my front garden (blown in as seeds from a neighbour) after my son was diagnosed!

Getting better at this sushi making lark

Been a few days of relative silence, lo and behold Temu Gollum neighbour is blasting his doof doof again. Wonder if he'll go for the illegal bonfire again for a twofer. #wanker #shittyneighours #actyourage

I'm sorry Stripey Man 😭🙏

Not gonna lie, my money was on Stripey man. My stripey man usually is the culprit.

MAGAts and Christofascists just really love blaming mothers for everything hey? Sorry son, again, for unwittingly causing your Austism 🙃

Today is a day for sitting under a tree listening to Jeff Lynne.

There are plenty of things I hate about endometriosis- but right now what I absolutely hate is not being able to go out walking in this glorious wind, rain and gloom because I can't walk very far. I do hope this weather stays by the weekend so I might frolic.

Caturday Night with La Moo.

Image that can be seen as either a kookaburra or a goat turning it's head

And now for something completely different

#birds #goat

Crikey at first I was like that's a kookaburra, what do you mean goat, then I saw. Now I can't unsee both. Well done!

Having a moment or six with classical music, my cat children and a cup of tea.

Yasss!

Mates being mates on a rather windy yet sunny Ballarat day.

Stumbled on this incredible bit of colonial archaeology wandering through Melbourne. It's a piece of European bottle glass flaked into a scraper by Kulin Nation First Peoples, excavated from the 1855-70 settlement at Wesley Place, now displayed at 130 Lonsdale www.wesleyplace.com.au/content/news...

My poor, but with much love, attempt at icing my son's 16th birthday cake with the middle finger he so often flips me.

While we’re still figuring out life on Earth, Voyager 1 is 15 billion miles away, cruising on 69KB, an 8-track, and 1977s Fortran like it’s nothing.

A tapir asking for more food!

Ach, I'm happy to be bothered by any birds singing their song...or beating food to death 😀

It is the 80th anniversary of the USA attacking the city of Hiroshima with an approximately 15kt nuclear weapon and promptly killing some 75,000+ people, large majority women and children and vast majority civilians.

I despair that the atrocities continue, that the atrocities never stopped.
