This is a photo from two years ago - couldn’t get one this morning. They’re too speedy!

Pretty cappuccino, served in a light celadon green cup and matching saucer. There is a little latte art embellishment in the foam (heart/leaf/something) with a line of powdered cocoa sprinkled across it.

Had coffee with a friend earlier today. Ok to drive since last Friday but have been taking it slowly. Overdid it a little at a birthday celebration on Sunday (not imbibing or anything, just staying out). Lovely to be able to do that but have been extra tired and emotionally turbulent since.

Post by Donald Trump to Lies Social showing him as Jesus Christ. Yes there's a US flag in the background.

Most of Protestantism is pretty consistent about complying with the bans on graven images or taking the Lord's name in vain, but watching evangelicals completely reinventing Christianity to accommodate their orange God is a headscratcher.

Hitler would love it

I guess we all have to switch our 'emphatically Yes' rhetorical questions to "Does Jack Newton swim in circles?"

Bruce Lehrmann loses last-ditch legal effort to appeal defamation case against Network Ten and Lisa Wilkinson The high court has dismissed his bid to clear his name of findings that, on the balance of probabilities, he raped Brittany Higgins in Parliament House in 2019

Fern hanging off my little balcony. Gift from a friend who moved & couldn’t take it with her. It’s thriving here. ;)

Notes:

1) The rate of fire per footstep is the same throughout.

2) If you engage at a viable distance at 3.5 mph (5.6 kmh) for ~6 secs, you've travelled 30 feet or 10 metres and can kick him in the nuts!

Took my second favourite daughter down to the Kite Festival #Semaphore. She loved it of course. #Sunny
