- Lunch in Newtown
- The volunteer t-shirt this year is a colour they're calling "citrus".
- Lol queers and efficient organisation are never ever bedfellows innit
- Mains water was off this morning, the one morning I was out of bed before lunchtime, so no shower, but there was just enough left in the pipes for me to half-fill a basin and have a flannel wash. Sydney Water's website advised that there is no disruption to supply at my address. But nextdoor...

- Dinner in Burwood
- I'd do a Jessie Ware top 3, but I really can't decide. It tends to be the last three Jessie Ware songs I listened to. Maybe: 1. Spotlight 2. Free yourself 3. What's your pleasure?

- Some Friday advice: I highly recommend not slicing your thumb open with a kitchen knife.
- Over on TikTok, recruitment "expert" Tammie Ballis is complaining about immigrants and criticising the Greens because they don't have a white Australia policy, and she gets to be racist because her family is Greek but she assimilated, whatever that means.

- I would be an Olympic ski jumper but there's not enough injectable acid in the world to fill my enormous, um, ahem, never mind.
- Two gay porn stars compete in taking the most loads in a weekend. Skeeted Rivalry.
- Lots of people are sharing this and saying it's really good, and I'm sharing it too because it's really good.
- Pride in Protest is an organisation that does want to destroy Mardi Gras and they would love to see funding removed and the organisation go bust. Nasty, spiteful people.
- It's been a busy (and somewhat frustrating) day at work, so we're having picky bits for tea, then I'll have a rest and watch the next episode of The Boyfriend. I want to be in bed by 11 because I'm knackered, but will see if I get distracted.
- Do people not realise how stupid it makes them look when they assume that their readers are too stupid to read?
- Look, yes, generally. But also, my opinion is that if you don't know at least one trans person who is not welcome at your home, you don't know enough trans people.
- I don't know, have they?
- The people I hate most are the ones who expect absolute silence in your apartment block after 8pm, but who also think that operating a petrol lawnmower right outside your bedroom window at 6am is A-OK.
- Office-bound to take advantage f the publicly funded air conditioning, as well as to enjoy the sights and smells of Sydney's second CBD.
- Hmm, Andrew Maxwell used to be really hot and now he, well, isn't...
- Roisin's gone fash since, but in my early twenties I had Moloko's "If you have a cross to bear you may as well use it as a crutch" on repeat a lot (and as a ringtone when ringtones were a thing).
- You can get a lot of bang for your buck when annoying gamer dudes by referring to any games console as a "super-intendo" and when they tell you the actual name of the console you can just say "oh, sorry, I don't know the proper names for all the different playstations".
- Squid Game contestants on day 5:
- Weeknight veg advice – steamed greens and carrots are boring, but they're quick, and you can transform them into a delicious side dish by tossing them in a knob of butter and a splash of soy sauce.
- WHAT a fucking record.
- A lot of people are very cross that Europe actually did learn a lot of lessons from the Second World War and is applying those lessons.
- Late finish at the office, but I'm finally on my way home. Evening plan: fry a couple of steaks and steam some greens, eat the steak and greens, knit the toe of a sock, watch episode 10 of The Boyfriend, have a glass of milk and go to bed.
- Terrifying
- The best bit of social media is when people explain your own posts back to you.
