  @SeaFury I have been but the time is nigh when the pupper must go outside and we don’t have a doggie door. There’s no point: she won’t poo in the backyard EVER so I have to take her up the street. Currently she has a favourite bit of nature strip, so much so that I’m wondering if those neighbours offended her. In Canberra she was kinda friends with a dog that disappeared then returned aggressive so pupper preferred to pee and poo right outside that dog’s fence, even on the steps to their gate.

  @bastardsheep yeah but years ago we had a spate of mobile phone deaths caused by people focusing on their phones and not their surrounds.

  @SeaFury @maudenificent a combination of carrot and timing and it is actually possible, lol

  RE: https://masto.ai/@Nonilex/116762268747214122 I guess there wasn’t enough support, ratings and applause for the event so now the corrupt regime is claiming people “planned” to attack the event but didn’t.

  RE: https://mas.to/@tedpavlic/116762395007001926 I loved Colbert’s show and his segments featuring the World Central Kitchen where he raised money for their good work. Apparently during Colbert’s final show, he gave his employer “the finger” while raising more for the Kitchen, lol. 😍

  @SeaFury good for you! I miss the days of coffee with friends (usually it’s just my husband, which is nice but I miss coffee with friends after moving). But I also enjoy going out alone, having a treat without obligatory conversation. And I love writing in cafes, it’s where I used to write the first draft of most of my reviews.

  @StefanThinks I’ve switched to firefox and duckduckgo for most things but STILL google harasses me ON FIREFOX to log in to google. I’m over this enshittification and getting nostalgic for pre-internet days.

  @SeaFury I love the rain but not so much when walking. I find rain to be restful, I sleep better, and although it stirs up hayfever the air smells more refreshing.

  @SeaFury I don’t mind a drizzle but I guess I got put off walking in the rain when I moved to Melbourne from Adelaide, my raincoat wasn’t waterproof (it was when I bought it but years in Adelaide I rarely needed one so it wore out) and I got caught in hail a few times in a short period. Plus my dog isn’t a fan of walking in the rain, although she’s much more tolerant of it now than when I got her. She used to argue about going outside if rain was coming in 1/2 hour or so.

  RE: https://universeodon.com/@georgetakei/116768165743577280 Someone walked from Perth Western Australia to Melbourne over a period of months so technically it is possible. Months ago, I suspected the US planned to invade by driving military into Iran from Iraq but it seems they’re not that stupid.

  RE: https://aus.social/@Su_G/116768119464751391 Hanson is Australia’s Trump. If she gets too much political clout, Australia will follow the US into economic destruction, KGB style disappearances of citizens and visa holders, and more.

  RE: https://mastodon.social/@eff/116484526765287405 Congress wants to legislate so social media platforms have your ID and details to enable ID theft, without legislating safeguards to prevent identity theft or misuse of the data.

  RE: https://bne.social/@anathema_device/116524083000785767 Herbal supplements can do a lot of harm because they’re not regulated. Years ago I read about a green tea supplement but it was thousands of times more potent than a cup of green tea and killed people. The guy the story was about had his liver destroyed by this supplement (but was still alive and disabled at the time). Be very careful about unregulated products.

  RE: https://aus.social/@amyfallon/116439776328286924 What does she expect? For random strangers to rush up to her and fawn all over her? If a stranger rushes up to me in the street I brace myself for what might come next. Admittedly it’s often people admiring my seeing eye dog but sometimes (too often) it’s terrifying.

  RE: https://mastodon.social/@jeffjarvis/116139533331646817 Not long ago Netflix said they already had a contract to purchase WBD so the Paramount bid was too late. Seems Trump blew it up to give Kushner, Saudis etc, ownership of USA channels and production companies. I’d like a list of the gifts they gave Trump and photos of all the gold.
