Likewise. And if I don't use it, they have to pay it back to me hour by hour when I resign. With long service leave on top I could feasibly just take a half a year off if I have enough notice.

Gee thanks for the alternative

Similar boat, after our first rabbit passed away we decided to rescue a bunny to be a partner for our second rabbit, who was still only 4, when the first moved on. He was 8, and had a few serious medical events after a rough patch with seizures, and he was on weekly antibiotic injections for two years.

Rescue bunny is a big new Zealand red eyed white, who is very picky, blind, and anxious. After a few tough months where we had to segregate the house, we managed to bond them but he has never been all that relaxed around humans or tolerant of grooming, nail trimming, etc etc.

He's now 3.5 years old, we adopted him at 9 months. This month he's started letting us pick him up without struggling (for nail trims), started flopping while being pet/near us, and is all around a lot less anxious (except for scary things like dogs, birds, and loud noises - he is almost completely blind I think).

They're just such sweet animals once they form a relationship with you, but most people don't "speak" rabbit love as easily as they "speak" dog or cat love. Nothing better than our little lady running to my feet every morning when I get up, and grooming my legs every time I sit on the floor!

I miss my outfit. Briggs server was so wholesome, almost everyone knew everyone.

This has unlocked a memory I haven't recalled in probably 20 years...

Every second descent is actually an upstairs staircase, so you just keep going up and down.

I feel half the city is struggling at the moment. Plane trees and wattle blooming everywhere.

Thanks! Film with a wide angle lens goes very hard in the right lighting.

Maybe we should just put the organs up for auction, that way we know only the most financially well off will receive them. And this way the auction house gets a cut.

Darktide is fun with friends, but it's still a good game without. My friends all burnt out on it after 30ish hours but I've almost hit 100 now and still having fun every now and again. Scratches a very particular itch

Just like the time we had a minister bring a lump of "clean coal" into the Australian parliament.

Pretty neat demonstration of how the world beyond their viewpoint doesn't exist.

 
 

But it's as good a ride as any to go out for a ride. Especially since most of my state was inside watching the AFL Grand final while the weather was peaking.

Sometimes motorcycles are inconvenient for transporting stuff. But there's always a way!
