  • Finally got round to watching evangelion 3+1 last night. Terrible. But as far as all the batshit endings evangelion ever got it wasn’t the worst.

    But still, about 20 minutes of Eva shit in the whole movie.

  • Alright, bunnings still had TONS of veggies left so I've loaded up and ordered some veggie mix soil to fill up my raised planters. How do I decide what goes where? i've got 4 raised planters and 2 stand alone smaller pot things. Gotta plan 2 strawberries, 2 Tomatoes, 4 beetroot, 1 capsicum, punnet of carrot, zucchini, punnet of cos lettuce and punnet of green beans. Dunno where to put stuff.

  • Korean at home ideas?

    Been watching a ton of the YouTube shorts of Korean office lunches, and tbh they look incredible. Don’t have the budget for trying a whole Korean restaurants menu so wondering if anyone’s got some home cooked favourites I can have a crack at making.

    There's a baby drought in Australia. Maybe we should fund IVF?
    www.abc.net.au There's a baby drought in Australia. Here's why you should care

    Artificial intelligence support workers could be in Australia's future if the fertility rate continues to stay the same.

    There's a baby drought in Australia. Here's why you should care

    Maybe, just maybe it shouldn't cost close to 10k to even TRY to have a kid through IVF? More like 15k out of pocket costs till the Medicare rebate anyway.

    1 in 6 aussie couples will struggle with infertility whilst 1 in 20 kids is born of IVF. https://monashivf.com/one-in-six/

    1 in 6 couples. 1 in 20 babies. You can see a fair gap here. Unless your comfortably "middle class", you screwed. yes there are some public clinics with no gap, but the wait times are staggering. If we're worried about falling birth rates FULLY funding IVF and fertility treatments through Medicare is a no brainer.

    Teenager accused of church attack received good behaviour bond for knife crime
    www.abc.net.au Teenager accused of church attack received good behaviour bond for knife crime

    The teenager who allegedly attacked a bishop at a church in Sydney was placed on a good behaviour bond after being convicted of a knife crime three months ago, the ABC can reveal.

    Teenager accused of church attack received good behaviour bond for knife crime

    Once again, someone who gave clear warning signs they were a risk was released into the community and the community has paid the price. When someone tells you who they are, you listen. Unless you're a judge apparently? Why do personal freedoms seem to trump the risk to the greater public?

    www.abc.net.au NSW Police commissioner begins process to dismiss murder-accused officer from the force

    New South Wales Police Commissioner Karen Webb moves to dismiss alleged murderer Beau Lamarre-Condon from the force, flags investigation of his background and files.

    NSW Police commissioner begins process to dismiss murder-accused officer from the force

    > Lamarre-Condon allegedly killed Davies and Baird with a police gun.

    > "If officers seek to have approval to store firearms at their home, there are a number of steps to that approval, including that the safe in which the firearm is stored has been independently approved." Asked if she knew whether the accused had an approved gun safe at his home, the Commissioner answered: "I'm actually not aware." She would not confirm whether normal rules had been followed in this case.

    Oh you have GOT to be fucking kidding me.

    Recipes for hiding veg?

    Been told I gotta eat better. Working on it, but still not at the point where I can eat a plate of veg. Any suggestions for "hiding" veg to get me some extra nutrients? I already chuck lentils in the bolognese and veggie rice in the mini quiches. Pretend your cooking for a fussy child. I'm expanding my pallet, but it takes time.

    Probably obvious but: Try tomato paste in a curry instead of just tomatoes in curry

    Had a crack at a lentil curry last night. Recipe called for 2 cans of tomatoes, but I had a jar of tomato paste open in the fridge so I added that plus a fair bit of water to compensate, plus the originally called for can of tomatoes. The end result was a curry with a beautiful rich gravy. It was thing and dreamy and bound all the curry flavors together in a way I'd never achieved before. Worth giving it ago.

    Another suggestion to check out Strange New Worlds if you haven't already done so.

    I know more than a few people will be reluctant to go in on another Star Trek show after Discovery. But even my wife (who is kind of into scifi but isnt a startrek fan) has gotten into Strange New Worlds. You dont have to be a Star Trek fan. So far theres only been one episode my wife had to ask "What was all that about". Its a real "adventure of the week" kind of show, which is refreshing in this "every show must have an overarching seasonal plot" world we live in. We're having a lot of fun with it!

    Can we get an Aussie bargains or an Aussie frugal community?

    Loved the old reddit one for good deals and recipies and stuff. I think there are a few on other instances but none seem to have taken off.
