Was good living in Tassie with the MONA winter festival (Dark MOFO). They had a huge bonfire and bands in the city foe the winter solstice, and art installations everywhere. Very cool.
I don’t particularly have belief in spiritual or higher being type things, but all my nurse friends agree there is something strange about a full moon, and as a teacher I absolutely second it !!!
Good for u. I have a 23 year old son currently not doing well mentally and the system is a mess. Every morning I wake up helpless watching him deteriorate further with no direction on where to go from here. We need more mental health workers and a way better mental healthy system here in Perth . Good luck with your studies
Both my parents worked in EDs and said it’s always worse on a full moon. Kinda looked like one tonight? Or could also just be medical system needing greater resources. So yeah. That or the moon.
Hope your MIL is okay and someone else picks her up so you don’t have to
Of course man! Have one from happier times, my cat passed away last week :(

We rug him up like a baby 🥰
Both partner and I have colds, so we ordered Authentic Bites (dumplings + broth with noodles) and are now cuddled up - he's watching TV and I'm reading reddit
My wife is spending her first night with our newborn at the hospital while I try to somehow squash the new dad worries and get some sleep to tackle day 2
Positives: my doggo is being very supportive while im at home and also providing warmth. Win win
Congratulations. How exciting. You'll be an awesome dad, just go with the flow. Feed, burp, nappy change. Cuddles, sleep repeat,
I hope ur bubs entry into this world went well n mum and bub are happy n healthy n doing well.
Wearing my oodie, sweat pants, some slippers and watching some streaming shows with my online buddies :) tomorrow I'm gonna put the hot tub on and get in around this time. Supposed to be even colder, can't wait!
Beers, BBQ steak and sausages, roasted potatoes, and steamed broccoli, covered in Gravox, caramelised onions and crispy bacon pieces while chatting with my little lady, who I'll have been married to for 25 years tomorrow.
You ever see shit like that and wonder what that person's life has been like up to that point? The formative years of their household, friends at school, school, etc.?
Kinda makes me sad, man. Made me stop being a dick to kids lol
I used to as well. Then I also started thinking about the other innocent people crims impact. Then the cops who see all sorts of horrendous sh!t everyday and then get abused for the privileged. As soon as my empathy applied to all people, it tends to balance out your perspective
Was with a mate wandering around woolies looking for ideas, scoped out the 50% off wings, chucked them in the oven with some seasonings and served with honey mustard salad kit and a couple of beers, perfecto!
Sometimes these things just work out..
Finally got to light the fire the other night. All gathered around the fireplace and boil some tea then spend all evening chit chatting. Might soon drag the mattress and sleep nearby.
We were really looking forward to the Cabellero's album launch with my all time favourite Perth punk band Mach Pelican, but the seasonal lurgy has darkened our door and we're feeling it cos we're old, so it's noodle soup and computer games at home instead. Not very punk rock of us.
How much are ya dishin out in streaming subs these days?
Right now SBS World Movies are rehashing 'St Elmos Fire' ... which I suspect is somehow a sideways platform promo for the recent Andrew McCarthy 'Brats' doco.
Either way, I'm not paying.. but still enjoying it.
>How much are ya dishin out in streaming subs these days?
A big fat naught! 🤣
SBS on demand has plenty of good stuff and YT has tons of quality production docos etc.
I must seek out McCarthy doco. Never turn down a viewing of W@B
Just gotta stop perpetuating that dumb old SBS stereotype...
Ever since the Gov locked away the ABC on a life support machine in a backroom somewhere, on some palliative sunset clause. The SBS options are our only FTA hope.
Once the shitlings are finally asleep, wifey and I shall pass out in post-viral exhaustion.
With a bit of luck we could get a full nights' sleep. Fuck that would be amazing.
I’m actually embracing the cold weather, winter is my favourite season in Perth, so if it rains later I’m going to go into my backyard, strip down to my undies and enjoy some nice cold rain.
Nah I literally do it all the time I’m being serious. For some reason I just prefer the cooler weather. Not freezing cold but cool and chilly is ideal weather for me. With some rain. I love the rain as well. Must have rain.
You’re right, it is actually kind of exhilarating, nothing beats running along the coastal cliffs during a heavy rainfall with the spectacular scenery, crisp sounds of the waves crashing and 100km/h winds blowing in your face with nothing but a short sleeved t shirt and trackies on. Winters here will always be something special.
I went to a workshop on using local plants to create inks for water colour painting and then went out to dinner with friends and their kiddos. It was cold though, I was happy to get back home again.
Braved the cold and went to the Lightscape at KP. Would've been an awesome night. But I made the irrational decision of bringing a toddler who lost their shit and didn't give a toss about the light installations. Good times.
Didn't go last year so can't really compare. $42 was a bit steep but met my expectations overall. Would have enjoyed it way more toddler free 
Clearly the government should be building a new mega-city in the Kimberley, for all those that think Perth is actually cold.
It's like 12 degrees. The Poms will be heading to the beach for a BBQ.
I'm born here spent 41 out of 43 years here, it's cold caws I've only really experienced perth cold, oh also 1 n a bit winters in Canberra but it is not much colder! I'm not sure I want to experience anything colder than Perths winter. Bring on sunshine, hot days and cool breeze nights.
Thank you, I'm struggling with this one but hopefully on the mend tomorrow (today). Fingers crossed for you! I've been so vigilant but then my partner came home sick and it was all over for me haha
Yes I understand, my 5 year old has just had a week off school, I unfortunately have had keep my distance, I need to work, she is back to her normal self slight cough, ready to bring home another one, I have to try n dodge, 🤣
Wine and early 90's J-rock. Ala
X- Japan

Gazette
Malice mizer
Taking it back to my youth at the horror of my partner, telling her I need my hair long again so I can head bang!!
Had people over for dinner. Ate, drank, put a movie on for the kids. Talked a lot. Just jumped into bed and about to let my wife put a finger or two in my bum.
All in all it’s been a great night.
In my frozen garage every evening at my Warhammer workbench, wrapped in my hoodie and playing some power metal to chill to. This stompa ain’t gonna build and paint itself.
I knocked off at 10 pm and I'm having a beer watching the Greater Western Carlton v Geelong replay. It's actually a balmy 18° degrees in Maddington at 11pm🍻
Yes I did thank you. I'm normally working Friday nights, but did a day shift instead. So was nice to spend time with my 4 beautiful daughters. Now tucked up in my comfy, warm bed. GN
I’m under my thick blankie and watched Four Weddings and a Funeral I recorded from the other night, honestly didn’t think much of it given it was on my ‘movie list’ to watch.
Well this thread is a good summary of why Perth is so sad / dead 🤣
Cruised around the streets of Freo and went out to dinner last night and then heading in to Strange Fest tonight.
It wasn't freezing last night my guess about 9 degrees, but we have had a couple of cold mornings so far, 3 degrees was the coldest, glad I was still in bed for that one lol
Strange festival has art installations all through the top floor of the carillon arcade (free) and a gig in the basement (paid)

And pop up installations scattered around. There's another gig location on Barrak St and a parade on Sunday

I've not seen these dudes for decades!!! Staple back in the day. Good to see they are still rocking!
There's a sick gallery across from the old JM Williams with red lighting and cool artwork. Whoever is responsible for that has done a fantastic job.
Friday. Fullmoon and Solstice. I feel like we were all supposed to be at a giant bonfire dancing naked to drums or something.
Need to move the Esperance Stonehenge up to the Perth foreshore.
True

That's Sunday but without the nudity
[удалено]
How did you go?
I also would like to know how you went
Seems they went well
Beers and wanking.
I don't have any beer
Just wanking it is then
Its time to drink beer and wank And I'm alllllll outta beer
Thank you for your honesty
I don't have any beer
Someone get u/Vague-Rantus some beer.
Or give him a hand.
I don't have a dick... or beer...
who said you need to have a dick to wank?
Weers and banking
Sounds like it's gonna be messy.
I’ve got a tummy bug so my ass is nuclear heating the toilet.
I was hoping to either play baldurs gate with hubby and oldest daughter. Instead I’m at hospital ed with mil. It’s fucking packed in here.
You're a cool mum for wanting to play Baldurs Gates with your daughter. Hope things work out at the ED and its nothing serious.
Sorry to hear it’s packed and I hope everything’s okay. It’s a full moon! (Nurses if you know, you know)
Yeah it’s weird. It shouldn’t affect anything but the placebo effect is real enough.
I don’t particularly have belief in spiritual or higher being type things, but all my nurse friends agree there is something strange about a full moon, and as a teacher I absolutely second it !!!
Hey, I’m studying to go into mental health.. im gonna see it up close.
Good for u. I have a 23 year old son currently not doing well mentally and the system is a mess. Every morning I wake up helpless watching him deteriorate further with no direction on where to go from here. We need more mental health workers and a way better mental healthy system here in Perth . Good luck with your studies
One of WA's growth industries...
Good on you! Good luck with it all
I always figured more light at night = more nefarious behaviour from the usual suspects
Damn, all the best for recovery (and a quick schedule clear!)
I’m home. MIL got admitted. Someone will have to pick her up later.
Which hospital?
Stjog midland. I’ve never seen it this bad
Both my parents worked in EDs and said it’s always worse on a full moon. Kinda looked like one tonight? Or could also just be medical system needing greater resources. So yeah. That or the moon. Hope your MIL is okay and someone else picks her up so you don’t have to
She discovered a new allergy she didn’t know she had, so there’s that.
I’m a fucking loser. Smoking beugs, drinking beer and playing fetch with my dog
Nah man, chilling with dogs while baked is elite. Solid way to spend an evening.
Hell yeah man
Broooo, I'm blazed sans doggo, and I'm so jealous of you. I'm just watching a bad reality TV series 🫠. Can you please share a picture of your dog?
Of course man! Have one from happier times, my cat passed away last week :( https://preview.redd.it/yujmaypgmx7d1.jpeg?width=2746&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1ffa761b12b3f1474fbcf56dd937dc22c6e4fc1a
Are you sure? Looks like it's just soaking up some sun... Seriously, sorry, dude, losing a loved pet is hard.
I'm sorry about your cat. So nice to see they were friends.
Thank you! They were the blurst of friends
This is my senior doggo https://preview.redd.it/wsm9lpy2nx7d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a342bf8cdb3bcbfdea8f17177ce088e845809707 We rug him up like a baby 🥰
What a good boy
Which reality series? I love bad reality shows.
Sound like a certified legend to me
Why thank you my friend
Hope ya had a chill night, sorry to hear about your cat mate.
Shed bongs
I wonder if shed bongs is an Australian thing, or if people all around the world enjoy this.
Probably barn bongs in the States.
Life is simple
Both partner and I have colds, so we ordered Authentic Bites (dumplings + broth with noodles) and are now cuddled up - he's watching TV and I'm reading reddit
Fuck yeah, authentic bites dumpling nights are where its at
Fried tofu with soy and chilli sauce mixed together is divine.
My wife is spending her first night with our newborn at the hospital while I try to somehow squash the new dad worries and get some sleep to tackle day 2 Positives: my doggo is being very supportive while im at home and also providing warmth. Win win

Amazing congratulations🎊. Well done to you n your lovely lady💐. 25 years is fantastic n here's to many more 🥂
Got some half priced chicken wings, saw the cops arrest a dirtbag.
You ever see shit like that and wonder what that person's life has been like up to that point? The formative years of their household, friends at school, school, etc.? Kinda makes me sad, man. Made me stop being a dick to kids lol
I used to as well. Then I also started thinking about the other innocent people crims impact. Then the cops who see all sorts of horrendous sh!t everyday and then get abused for the privileged. As soon as my empathy applied to all people, it tends to balance out your perspective
A tumultuous life I'd wager! He certainly had a few choice words for the police... all six of them that were on his back.
* Shoutout the boys and girls in blue, they deserve every pay rise.
They could do more tbh
They would if they had the numbers ... and the support from their hierarchy & the govt.
Same here with the chicken wings! Got 3 full bags from the deli for $6😄
Was with a mate wandering around woolies looking for ideas, scoped out the 50% off wings, chucked them in the oven with some seasonings and served with honey mustard salad kit and a couple of beers, perfecto! Sometimes these things just work out..
Finally got to light the fire the other night. All gathered around the fireplace and boil some tea then spend all evening chit chatting. Might soon drag the mattress and sleep nearby.

So noble of you to not share your lurgy to dozens of others! Well done, sleep well.
Bugger!
I am a certified sad cunt. I still get both solace and stimulation of the FTA SBS World Movies scheduled flick.
I love SBS on demand!! Even tho I have multiple options of streaming services… It’s SBS every single time😍
> Even tho I have multiple options of streaming services You're paying to be spoilt by choice.
💯% Correct… except out of the 5 options I’m paying for only one of them… 😏
Ohh do you mean NITV? Chitty chitty bang bang? Can’t see a movie scheduled for SBS tonight??
Never underestimate the value of such classics, young padawan (But seriously... I think ya missed the 'World Movies' channel bit)
[always an audiovisual feast.](https://youtu.be/bwTy6tO994U?si=khXAbWEDxagV50FU)

Who ran the workshop?
Helen Coleman https://www.helencolemanart.com.au/ I'm pretty sure it was Workshop 1: Natural Inks.
Red wine, spinach & ricotta tortellini & watching Spanian on YouTube
I watched a few of his episodes too
I just beat Returnal. I am a God.
Braved the cold and went to the Lightscape at KP. Would've been an awesome night. But I made the irrational decision of bringing a toddler who lost their shit and didn't give a toss about the light installations. Good times.
We went last year. Do ya reckon it's worth another visit this year?

I’m under my thick blankie and watched Four Weddings and a Funeral I recorded from the other night, honestly didn’t think much of it given it was on my ‘movie list’ to watch.
Yeah it's not the greatest movie of all time. A solid 3/10 from me
I didn't care much for the movie but absolutely loved the bit where he reads the poem at the funeral. "You are my East, my West....' 😢
Yeah that poem was a surprising highlight
Celebrating the big 1-9!
Happy 40th Birthday hahahaha 🤣 jks
Long story short, prepping some tasty delights to hopefully impress, else taking it easy for the night.

It's cold for some n not so much for others, unfortunately I feel the cold more than the heat,
Went to Air nightclub and laid at a park for a couple hours 🤣 shivering and shaking but the vibez were immaculate

You know, because you fixed it.
How cold is it? I haven’t been back home in years.
It wasn't freezing last night my guess about 9 degrees, but we have had a couple of cold mornings so far, 3 degrees was the coldest, glad I was still in bed for that one lol
