He looks remarkably sinister in this photo. Not walking, stalking through the undergrowth.

It’s a ruse. He’s a hyper affectionate kitto and melts when you pick him up he just wants to scare us and see where we stand :)

edit he just launched himself at the door and let himself out and now I have to go find him heh.

2 resignations from my team this week. As a result our efficiency will go up and toxicity will go down.

Love it when dead weight decides to fuck off quietly.

I’m staying with some boomer family friends because they’re generally okay but oh dear lord sitting around with channel 7 in the evening makes me want to scoop my ears and eyeballs out. At least it’s not Sky … And at least I’m going out for dinner.

Someone I spoke to infrequently messaged me out of the blue on discord the other day seeking a ‘second opinion’.

‘Here we go’ I think. ‘This should be good.’

Them: Do you think it’s a good idea to travel to another country to visit a boy who just blocked me on discord?

‘Good’ wasn’t even in the same universe as how insane that question was.

You might need to explain the definition of stalker to them.

That’s… kind of amazing in the weirdest way. Did they come up with reasons as to why they think it could possibly be a good idea?!

They wanted to see them. Not in a romantic way. Just because they’d been talking for 3 years.

Insane and almost entertaining.

I’d be wondering how that is even remotely a good idea and what the reasoning behind that is.

What was your response to this person who asked you for your opinion?

I said I’m not even going to bother answering that.

They claimed it’s not even a romantic reason. They’d been speaking to them for 3 years and they ‘wanted to see them’.

I keep taking Melbourne’s tap water for granted until I go drink unfiltered tap water in places like Brisbane and ugh. You really do forget about it when you’re drinking it every day, much like fish don’t see water.

It baffles my mind when I hear about Americans always drinking bottled water. Only to find out that their tap water is gross.
