I follow people who make me think, make me smile, and amuse my weird sense of humour.

Have you even been to Floriade unless you post a pic.

Not the thing to see on your app when you are out and about.

A couple of emails were waiting for me when I got home. There is a recall for our Telsa battery. Remotely discharging and isolating the battery seems like a very good idea.

I wonder if there is some reason for the "Male Loneliness Epidemic"?

Never mind...

I've found one cause.
“So-called "pheromone-maxxing" is a viral TikTok trend primarily associated with teen boys and young men that involves skipping showers and deodorant before a date.

Some proponents go so far as to wear unwashed shirts or drink their own urine in an effort to "sweat out toxins,"

Please kill me
Men are skipping showers before dates for a reason that may surprise women
Pheromone-maxxing is a TikTok trend where men skip showers and deodorant before dates, believing natural body odor boosts attraction. The science is far from conclusive.

Naught but a leap to the left
And then a clockwyse tread;
Put thyne handes on thyne hippes,
And be thy knees yn-gatheréd:
Lo! It ys the pelvique thruste
That maketh mirthe down to rayne -

Lat us doon the Tyme Warpe agayne!

Many centuries ago, people would boil down cattle hide, pig bones, fish scales and chicken gristle to make a paste that women would smear onto their faces, believing it contained the elixir of eternal youth.

Oh sorry - that’s TODAY! Watch out for the collagen peddlers!

Perv glasses should be illegal except for anyone with a relevant, recorded vision disability, that the glasses might help.
It would be great if #opsm, #specsavers etc refused to have anything to do with pervert glasses.

The world could be a better place.

I'm a polio survivor. NO sadistic sociopathic malignant narcissistic sexual assaulter & accused pedophile or his roadkill eating, toilet cocaine sniffing, prior heroin addict, brain worm damaged jester should ever have control of anyone's health. We should be protected from damaged men like these.

As i walked into the chemist, there were 3 teenage boys walking out.

About 10 metres behind them, 8 staff members were following them, while 2 others watched on.

I did not hear any kerfuffle, so I assume it must have been innocent.

If i didn't already have 534 wombats, I would get these ones.

Met this lovely lady at the weekend. She asked me if I had any pets. “Yes. A goldfish.” I replied. “Any hobbies?” She asked. “He likes swimming..”

All public transport tracking apps need to show how many seats are available.

Bonus points if they can tell you if your favourite seat is free.

I wonder how many school classrooms were just disrupted by the sound of the emergency alert?

Is the ban on phones in schools just an ACT thing, or is it widespread?

Is there ever a good time for your heating to pack it in?

I'm guessing it's not the middle of winter.

At least 20 ads on Facebook today from different charitable organisations.

I might seem heartless, but I think that charities should spend their money on the things they were set up to do, not on advertising.

I would love for Australia to win the Men's football #WorldCup.

However, it would be wonderful for Mexico to win.

Just to see Donald present them with the trophy.
