The pocket book artwork ‘Solitary Soundwalks ‘Wilson Reserve’’ is held up against an area of Wilson Reserve in Ivanhoe, Victoria, Australia ob Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Country. The front cover of the book is a simplified, colour blocked depiction of the same path and bridge through bush land that it is photographed in front of.

For anyone in Naarm/Melbourne (or beyond) in the mood for a folk-horror-esque ramble through the bush, my PhD artwork, Solitary Soundwalks ‘Wilson Reserve’ is now available to buy through my website ( www.japinney.com ) or at Ladyhawke - the bookshop in Ivanhoe. Remember, you walk at your own risk.

Papa has spoken

I am now starting my Larry sanders show box set. Hold on to yoir physical media folks. Everything else is a damn lie!

So grateful to my past self for holding on to all my dvds because I’ve been in my new place for almost three months and I STILL DO NOT HAVE WI-FI! There’s a chance I may be closer due to the unhinged voicemail I left for the nbn guy’s but still. I had 16 box sets of simpsons and I finished them!!!!!

Italy has moved me to tears for 3 days straight. Bravo ❤️

There’ve been many surprises while riding the waves of grief since Edie passed but vacuuming the living room rug just made me sob and laugh at what causes the waves to crash.

I can never spell it and autocorrect never helps but here I go, I also have a PhD and still can’t spell diarrhoea (wow only took three variations for autocorrect to actually come to the rescue that time lol)

Marinated and stretched rice paper that’s then dried again?

Built in the 13th century. So that mosque stood for 800 years with every sort of person from every place and every religion in the world passing through Gaza century after century, only for it to be blown up by some shithead loser sitting behind a computer that we probably paid for.

If this is my legacy (getting pensioners free money) then I am happy as fuck!

The most beautiful greyhound in the world turning towards the camera operator with soft eyes and a doggy smile, ready to go on her last walk before leaving us forever.

I miss her so much. It’s astounding how effortlessly she filled my life and how so many moments throughout the day are left feeling empty now she’s gone. New little reminders crushing me throughout every day since.

Anyone in the Darebin Parklands region got a spare few minutes and a pressure washer? Some area pests have graffitied The Nest with nazi shit (not sharing a photo), which someone else has valiantly tried to cover up. I'd say the position of Nest near the Healing Trail is intentional.

This is the most egregiously stupid hubris filled idea I’ve ever heard and I hope it never goes ahead!

You deserved every single soft punch and whack! Lovingly!

I read them for the first time last year and Tombs of Atuan rocked my whole life. The tightest (in all senses of the word) writing with so many truly terrifying moments!

maybe we shouldn't run "neo-nazi does [anything]" as the top story on national news websites unless it's meaningfully newsworthy/impactful? these are people who want to exterminate australians + are actively trying to get attention. we can't treat them as normal political players

Got her locked and loaded

Cannot stop thinking: This is very much bear behaviour lol. Though I suppose a bear would have just eaten them on the spot?

$2 and a share is easy for most of us too!

If you are at Bendigo Writers Festival and can't see me there because I pulled out due to censorship concerns AND you want to buy my books, please visit Bookish in Bendigo. Bookshops are good people.

“We’re here to talk about A levels”

“Free Palestine the BBC is complicit” 💀💀

Very exciting!

External journalists aren’t allowed into Gaza and the entire @aljazeera.com team in Gaza has been murdered by Israel with the killing of Anas al-Sharif, Mohammed Qreiqeh, Ibrahim Zaher and Mohammed Noufal today

Every day they try to hide the truth of the genocide they are committing

Emptying my dog’s last big bag of the food she hates (only wild boar prime logs for the dying princess now) hit me like a ton of bricks. So many layers of weird grief compounding the constant grief of knowing how lucky she and I are and how everyone should be so lucky.
