#mad for straya

Where’s the butter?

Why are you acting like this shit is Vegemite? It has a mild flavour, like load that sucker up with cream cheese.

It would be better with a good bagel (doesn’t exist here) or thicker toast, and maybe not sourdough.

NOT EVERYTHING HAS TO BE SOURDOUGH!

If you want it to be sweet you add some berries or a bit of jam.

Or if you want savoury and something more filling, some salmon or ham,

Maybe some salt & pepper, and herbs like dill or some chives or something!

Season it!!!!

Riley: "So if this is the world he created, what's the real world like?" Willow: "I'm scared. Everything's going to change." Giles: "Well, actually it'll remain pretty much the same except Jonathan won't be Jonathan - not our Jonathan, anyway." Xander: "No! No! No! World without sunshine! World without joy!"

I did go back to my room but L’s ignoring me coz he’s a stuck up chameleon looking prick throwing yet another tantrum and being stubborn again. bUT

and then bat his lil baby girl eyelashes at me INNOCENTLY 😔😔😔

Im abt to hop onto a plane now (conveniently stuck right between him and Oscar) trust me, I have so much freaking confidence in knowing that these two will never make it alive back to Australia. should just drop them to Brazil to have it out 🇧🇷

oh so here’s the plan: imma go from Italy > Straya > Russia (im partially Slavic uwu) > Portugal > Brazil > Uk 🇬🇧

yay me. Stuck with these too til august 😭

(is the aussie moustache thing a myth or are they really magical?)

[whatacartouchebag]

Sometimes I forget you're from Australia?? (I think?)

And then "Capsicum" smacks me in the face.

(in this particular sector of madness that's what we call a bell bepper)

skhdhHKSLDG thankyou nonnie I just snorted my coffee at work.

Sure am from Straya, so the words tend to pop out on automatic. In saying that, I used to live in Canada for a stint, so I’m very used to the different names for whatsies.

Mad for 'Straya

Creators Needing Sponsors

Create-a-thon Jan 24-Feb 2

@doeofthegreenwood will be creating a fic in their existing collection.

A03 Name: Doeofthewood

Name(s) on Other Platform(s): Doeofthegreenwood, La Femme Du Lac

Q: Please Describe Your Planned Work, e.g. genre, characters, ships, additional fandoms. If you are open to prompts, please list any restrictions

A: I'd like to write a fic where the Dag gets postpartum depression after having her baby. This will be part of my collection on AO3, Wives' Tales, so it's kind of a WIP. There may be some Dag/Cheedo, but there will definitely be a lot of female friendships between Dag and all the wives and will also feature Miss Giddy and a no-nonsense Vulvalini lady as Dag's doctor. Also might feature Nux/Capable, but Nux will still be dead.

You can sponsor @doeofthegreenwood as well as our other creators here:

Just type your name, bid, and email in the row for your creator. Minimum sponsorship is $.01 AU per word/pixel.

Creator sign ups are still open as well.

[alloverthegaf]

so let me get this straight

the Australian government is introducing new legislation that basically boils down to Google and Facebook having to compensate media companies for news content and while Google appears to be playing along

Facebook has responded by banning any posting or sharing of news content, and stopping overseas accounts sharing any Australian content.

This apparently includes banning such content as from the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM), Emergency Services pages, and government pages.

so let me get this straight

Rather than shill out a tiny fraction of their gross corrupt fortune, the company is spiting the Aus government by straight up banning news. That’s literal, overt, gross censorship. That kind of shit is dangerous. And what might piss me off more than anything, is that this is from the same goddamn social media giant that didn’t give a FUCK about american election misinformation spreading until they were forced to. The same fucking company that let Qanon conspiracists run rampant with their own groups until OCTOBER last year, is banning ALL NEWS from being shared amongst Australians, because they’re throwing a tantrum about having to pay for it.

fucking christ.
