You know those days when stars align? Yeah, nah. I don't believe in that crap. But today somethings happened so that my beautiful disabled son had one of the best days of his life. He got to ride on a vintage steam train, an old carousel and a ferry across Port Phillip Bay. (1)

I knit. PhD & MPH from UCBerkeley. Scientific. Legal-minded. Atheist/feminist. Living on Naarm. Melbourne north-side. My kids say I hate everything. My brother once said 'You should meet my sister; she's almost a communist'. I have very interesting kids.
Yikes. Is there a mercy rule in baseball? #worldseries
Rowling *never* writes about women’s rights, workplace discrimination or the threats to women from predatory men. I tracked her posts for five months: Well over 200 hateful transphobic smears. Not a single post about women’s actual concerns or needs None
Hello #booksky, I have just finished a profound book by @appletwigli.bsky.social Things In Nature Merely Grow. I’m a parent who has been confronted with an abyss. Yiyun Li has given me words for my life. Thank you.
Penny the #rescuecat is having a Sunday afternoon rest because apparently she was hard at work hunting RATS FFS to present to us this morning.
Does anyone have a cat that copies the dog? Penny the #rescuecat has started laying around the house like Indi the #rescueGermanShepherd. I’ve never had a cat who would sleep like this stretched out in the middle of the floor
What a week. It's gin and shrimp crackers, trash TV and an early night for me. Cheers to all of us who have survived the hands we've been dealt.
I’m doing something very unusual for me; I’m seeing a band I saw countless times in Perth in the late 70s - Dave Warner from the Suburbs.
I’ve just realised I wore my gardening shoes (cheap ass Crocs) to my local shopping centre and I do not care. I’m enjoying being elderly.
Amazing how a bottle of Chardonnay and a bag of chips can (only temporarily) make problems seem solvable. For more life advice, contact me or @mspraxis.bsky.social
I have no words to describe how I feel after seeing this show tonight whatson.melbourne.vic.gov.au/things-to-do...

My pregnant daughter is having extensive scans because of her brother’s multiple birth defects. I think I am struggling emotionally more than my daughter. A new set of results today are only flagged and followed up on because of family history. It’s hard not to be paralysed with fear. /1
The reason I can't have new friends is because i stood up my friend Rory earlier this year because I forgot we had lunch plans. Anyway he is the lead singer of Rudely Interrupted. And blind and ASD and @heymum3.bsky.social 's son rudelyinterrupted.bandcamp.com/track/christ...

Lucky I made friends a few years ago, @heymum3.bsky.social I brought tickets for this. So after this, I only need to see the Gorillaz and I never need to go to a live gig again. I will always wish I saw the Beastie Boys though.
This Jack Smith v Eric Schmitt head-to-head in the latest hearing is absolutely hilarious! You can virtually see the egg on Schmitt’s face through the TV. And Amy Klobuchar is just dying.
Netanyahu is an evil motherfucker, and that's all I have to say about that.
Help me. I'm being forced to watch The Bounce. #AFL #GrandFinal
The highlight of my week - working ten hours on Thursday, coming home, walking the dog for a bit, and then the dog had a seizure.
Hmm. I haven't had a tipsy Saturday night on bsky for ages. What have I been doing with my life?
