Yeah that side of the family has zero manners and consideration for others. There’s also the whole thing of the older generation always being right. I don’t play that shit, and happy to confront them.

Safe to say we don’t get invited often, but we’re not missing out.

I think some people just want to make something their complete identity and to feel morally superior. I get that people get passionate about some things, but being condescending towards others is not the way to win allies.

I did a veggo stint years ago to test it out for myself (and some health reasons). Went over to a relatives for a bbq and only ate salad, rice and other sides. Didn’t complain, just went about my day.

The host noticed and made a massive thing out of it (there were like 20 people, so he wasn’t cooking just for us) and kept pestering my why I’m going vegetarian. I was replying politely that it’s a personal choice etc…he kept pushing, so finally I said I’m only vegetarian at his place, cause he cant grill for shit.

No more questions after that.

We have friends who have dietary restrictions and we always accommodate. I actually enjoy learning new dishes etc.

Our vegan friend brought their friend once (also vegan), so we prepped a few vegan dishes. Our friend never complains and always appreciates what we do. Their friend refused to eat because they could not be certain it was 100% vegan and if cookware was cleaned to their standards.

I may have been rude and told her that the grass outside is completely vegan.

She never came back, and our friend apologised.

Stop being so wholesome 😁

Honestly that’s a great approach. I never refuse a meal, even though I can some mild reactions to some foods (nothing bad, just the winds and runs the next day).

If someone goes through the effort of preparing and sharing food with me, I won’t refuse.

Pretty much my ideal set up. I do want some rainy weekends with a max of 15, peppered in there. Cozy days for chilling on the couch.

Don’t forget that as soon as you look away from someone, they’re staring at you and picking out the flaws.

Such is.

I sauteed some broad beans with butter and spices, mixed in leftover chicken burgers (chopped up), and threw some veggies in.

Looks like shite, but tastes great.

They’re talking behind your back.

Got it 😁

Since getting my legal script, I’ve been using my vape. First joint I smoked with the good stuff, put me on my arse for like 3 hours.

But you’ll be absolutely blasted the first time you smoke after the break.

That’s weekend breakfast

It’s the only reason I have some at home. Sometimes I want a coffee but not the buzz. The taste is okay for the most part.

Officially the policy is 3 days office, 2 days WFH. Directors and managers are not enforcing it, cause they know productivity will dip.

I’ve already said that if I’m forced for the 3rd day, I will work exactly the hours that my contract stipulates, with absolutely 0 additional work when required.

Management appreciate our efforts and won’t be pushing the issue.

Green tea? Or a decaf, if that’s an option. Maybe you just need the mental stimulation of a coffee but not the chemicals.

I’ve decided on office on Monday & Tuesday, and WFH rest of the week. So far so good, managers haven’t said anything about it.

Ain’t no thing.

We’re regulars at a Vietnamese restaurant in Footscray. Been going there for years.

Waitress asked us for a photo today as they have a wall out back of customers who get special discounts and freebies.

They’re so sweet.

You’re strength is admirable.

Keep it real Sister.

Mate you did the right thing. It hurts but it’s for the best. Good on you for taking care of the poor creature.
