      Jesus Christ you’ve been through a lot hugs I wish there was something I could say to make you feel better. Gave me flashbacks to living in youth housing as a homeless youth, druggies and vandalism and harrassment and people who were either fucked up or just shit people.

      I’m so sorry. What a nightmare, I hate these people for you. You know what kind of people hate birds? Trash people. They exist everywhere, it’s not a class thing. Some people are just arseholes regardless of their life situation. Admitting arseholes exist does not make one a bad person. You are still a good person.

      WHAT THE FUCK

      I don’t know what to say, but I’m so sorry all that shit has happened. You have a right to feel safe in your own home. I absolutely understand you being soured on humanity if so much of your experience of it has been the worst of the worst!

      I hope, if anything, that you find some comfort in this little corner of the internet <3

    Bunny has been missing a whole week. I found it stuffed in between the couch cushions. Somebody is very happy. He has been licking it for the last 10 minutes.

        This is probably the most important thing 💧for the most important person 🐈‍⬛ In this heat and with her kidneys it is so important for her to have water.

        But I’m sorting everything out so there’ll be a few sources available

    Nitwits setting off fireworks again. The cat’s hiding. Not a good week for pets.

      They’re been going off since boxing day in my hood. Apparently you gotta do multiple test runs for NYE 🙄

        At the last place, we had someone set them off at like 2am on Christmas day. It was bloody annoying, but at the same time, the morbid part of my mind cracked up at the idea of all the oldies in that area being woken up at 2am to the sound of explosions. The sort of thing that’s not funny, but is also, kind of funny

    Garden bed cleared and dosed with a bit of dyn. lifter, slow release P and K. More soil coming tm to top it up. Ends up being a 1m x 8m.

    Also won the NO STATICE argument quite convincingly. All gone!

    Feels good to see a fresh bed.

    Lemon tree at the end stays.

    Got some chronic boredom. Nothing holds my attention and I don’t want to do anything, but I want some stimulation. Don’t want to watch anything though.

    I hate this state of being. A weird mental limbo.

      Probably understimulation. Maybe pace around to some music for a while, chew some gum. Play a computer game while listening to something

      It sometimes happens to me too.

      Feels like I’m in a state of limbo where I can’t decide to do a single thing even if I feel like I should be doing it.

      Going to sleep early sometimes help.

      I get a bit like that when I’m not going outside enough. It sucks, because it also makes me not want to go outside (and I feel like I have no reason to).

    There’s a rough/homeless bloke that hangs around La Trobe x Elizabeth in the city. He’s assaulted me twice now, once with use of actual force, and tonight I’ve just spotted him emptying a recycling bin and spreading the contents across La Trobe St.

    The cops have a police report from when he punched me, but they simply don’t care enough (or perhaps don’t “have enough resources”) to look at the photo I sent them and actually hunt him down knowing his regular location.

    The cunt’s an absolute menace and he’s very angry, all the time. He’s gonna seriously injure someone. I just give him a wide berth.

      I’m so sorry dude. I fucking hate when they get aggressive because there’s not a lot you can do to deescalate or help their situation and then you’re left calling the cops. (And getting assaulted.)

      I spent a lot of time calling psych triage services and homeless outreach and the cops… what finally worked was some cops finally agreed to come for a welfare check and the guy outside my house skulked off. Touch wood.

      Please just do what you can to keep yourself safe

    Just got my marks back from my last assignment for my hated subject. I somehow managed a distinction, which means I might have managed an overall distinction for the subject (if not it is a credit). Not too bad considering I avoided doing anything I didn’t have to for the subject and left everything to the last minute.

    There’s a post on r/cats where somebody installed a fisheye camera on a cat feeder bowl. The results are absolutely hilarious. Link
