Made catnip tea for my Overlord, and I think he is quite pleased with the results.

[-] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 4 points 4 days ago

Omg this is amazing. How did you do it?!

[-] StudChud@aussie.zone 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I have a glass teapot with an infuser thing I bought from T2 years ago. I just boiled some water, put two teaspoons of catnip into the infuser and into the teapot with the hot water. I let it steep for 2 minutes. I then poured it into the bowel shown and added cold water so it wasn't super hot.

I like doing it, because he really likes playing with water when it isn't running water haha

Edit: the accidental enrichment was when I was teasing him with his kicktoy and accidentally dunked it lol, he then proceeded to kick the shit out of it haha

Hooooolllllyyyyy shiiiiit. That is fucking adorable lol

  • apples (Granny Smith)
  • mandarins (imperial)
  • capsicum (red)
  • onions

  • zucchini
  • cucumber
  • eggplant
  • mushrooms

It's a cosy 24C in here, and I have a book and plenty of tea. Seems like pretty great weather to me.

The nest has been refreshed. I'm so fucking glad she just likes to sit in it and sleep. Things could be a lot worse.

First trip to Aldi. It's like being in an uncanny valley supermarket.

I ended up walking up and down the aisles for a while.

Was really cheap for the stuff I need. So score!

Now it's time for my monthly uber eats. I think a hsp would go down a treat.

[-] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 5 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

If you're a coffee person, ALDI beans are the best value for money out there.

[-] tombruzzo@aussie.zone 6 points 5 days ago

I think part of it is they don't play any music. It makes sense as they don't need to pay royalties then. And their checkout people get to sit in chairs so they don't need to take breaks.

Once you realise everything about Aldi is doing things as cheaply as possible it all starts to make sense

Not having music was kind of nice tbh.

[-] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 points 4 days ago

I have to stay away from the European biscuits section.

Big day today!

Have some errands to run and hopefully have these songs learnt for Monday rehearsal.

Getting exciting now! I miss playing on stage. It's such a great vibe!

Edit: No errands, too cold and wet. Staying home and learning the songs and feeding Gibson treats.

Paycheck!!!!

Time for a mega food shop.

[-] oztrin@aussie.zone 8 points 5 days ago

Work up way too early and couldn't get back to sleep so put on my big girl pants and went out to do the errands.
Aldi run done, cat litter and replacement gas cylinder for the soda King bought, replacement water jug filters and one of the Kmart Stanley mugs bought since I damaged the other one. Also filled up the car at the cheap petrol place on Kingston road.
Now back home and snuggled up with Sammi. Hoping to get a nap in but one of the neighbors has just started hammering so...

I have yet to buy something at Aldi. Fuck it, there's one near me. Maybe I need a tent with my groceries.

[-] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I'm still in a mood today was fucked

I hope you bought enough donuts.

[-] TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone 6 points 5 days ago

Signing to No Sleep Club again.

As soon as I don't have responsibilities, I apparently go overdrive on the sleep revenge. Must try to pull and all night and day, and hopefully crash at a reasonable time tomorrow - or take light naps.

Been avoiding sleep, but I shouldn't. It isn't healthy and I know it ugh

Assignment due tonight with an extension. Almost finished it and then I realised I missed something that means I have to change the whole thing. I start work at 7am tomorrow, so I don't have time to stay up and redo it. I'm going to have to start it again tomorrow and take the late submission.

If it isn't the consequences of my own actions.

[-] StudChud@aussie.zone 3 points 4 days ago

It's gonna be okay, we build strength and resilience by perservering through the lows, even if we blame ourselves. You are smart and capable!

Is it hailing elsewhere in Melbourne? Looked like white Christmas for a few minutes.

I know it's a waste of time to argue on the internet, but sometimes it's the only thing keeping my brain sharp, you know?

If I gently point out someone may need to rethink their position, and they decide I was actually just personally attacking them and they come for me, I literally crack my knuckles and go in. Nuclear.

What else am I supposed to do on a cold Saturday afternoon?

Crash napped and woke in the night.

Yesterday was the specialist, Melbcat seems to have kicked the uti! Unfortunately thereโ€™s not much to be done to prevent them happening. She also will be getting B12 shots. The specialist is happy with how sheโ€™s being cared for and has given the green light for many treats.

Iโ€™m finding the Dove beauty bar a bit drying so I might relax a bit on the frugality/minimalism and get a basic creamy cleanser. Itโ€™s enough to know I can go bare minimum if I ever need to

JD Vance is proof that extraterrestrial life does, in fact, walk amongst us on Earth

[-] TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone 5 points 5 days ago

I figure he's actually AI generated. Catch the donald permitting a real person as VP who might possibly upstage him - for all the wrong reasons.

[-] SituationCake@aussie.zone 4 points 5 days ago

Maybe heโ€™s from the same home planet as Zuckerberg.

I never watch footy but I ended up watching the last half an hour of Lions vs GWS with colleagues... What a turnaround! So dramatic!

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 4 days ago

It was insane. Thought the Lions were fine and out and then they come back from nowhere.

My Cats have have play against the Lions next week. Hope the Lions donโ€™t come back like that for us.
