I think Emily Blunt might have had some work done and she's starting to look a bit odd.

Ugh... I ended up sleeping most of today. I have no energy. I left the back door (screen locked) open, forgot to water the plants and forgot to put out bird/wildlife water. I've managed to water the plants, close the door and put on the cooling but that's all.
My health is getting pretty wrecked.
I had one win though. Melbcat has been having little accidents due to the uti but after two leaks in the bed I put down a washable puppy pad and layered some towels over it. That has just saved me from having to strip the whole thing tonight. I've chucked another pad down with an old flannel sheet over it and can just throw the other stuff in a nappy cycle with knockoff napisan.
i wasn't hot all day long, didn't even have the fan on
but now that the humidity rolls in i finally feel hot
to bed i go
I was wondering why it felt like shit despite the temperature drop.
Too hot, top floor apartment with an old-ass aircon. It's doing it's best.
Some chick is mething out in the alley below, calling everyone and no-one assholes lol. Post-dinner, twilight entertainment.
Edit: oh there's the cool change
Power out and my phones not fully charged. I might as well end it all now, donβt think Iβll survive until midnight when itβs expected back on.
Just got back to my place after a day and a half with my parents split system and it's SO GROSS in here. Stripped, AC and fan on. Think I'll sleep with everything going tonight!
Never ever get a west facing apartment with no obstructions to block the afternoon sun.
Well the cat had had Gabapentin and is now officially high π€£ Poor thing. It is funny thought.
Naw. Poor stoned kitty.
She's going for a blood test tomorrow so it's vets orders. She's currently sitting on a towel waiting for me to drag her around the house lol
The things we do for our tiny furry overlords.
Wee, slide rides!
Mine had his as an after not a before thing. Hung out of his tower like a Dali clock. We followed the instructions to halve it.
Yes it's really cooled down outside now /s.
I keep seeing all these inspiring reddit posts by people who lost weight by stopping smoking by no coca cola , by exercising, by eating good food
I have no bad habits to break and am still overweight,
maybe I eat too much healthy food.
CICO EOS.
Less carbs. More protein.
Iβve been having a break from alcohol for a bit (~2.5 months so far), and havenβt even lost a pound. Iβm so disappointed. Might have made up for it with alcohol-free beer & cider and extra timtams though, I guess
There really ought to be a website/app dedicated to recognising what exactly IS the healthy weight for a given age, height, bone structure and reproductive history. My suspicion is that the range of 'healthy' weight is really quite wide, a lot wider than the diet industry would have us believe.
My theory is that if one's organs are working fine, bone structure is fine, and you're not limited in your activity level, then you're healthy.
Hmm I'm not sure it's that simple. For instance you can have very unhealthy habits, and while the symptoms may not present themselves in the short term it will catch up with you eventually.
Count your calories for a month?
ozempic enters the chat
Limited supply due to weight loss without tears dieters - so limited that people who need it for diabetes and/or other life saving purposes CAN'T GET IT.
@Thornburywitch @wscholermann there are several other GLP-1 agonists available. They are just as effective for weight loss and actually work better for some people. Chemists are generally only filling ozempic scripts if they are not being prescribed off-label, at least until the shortage eases. There are also compounding pharmacies that can create bioidentical product during the shortage, but Novo don't like them.
The GLP-1 agonists are also proving very effective at helping people quit smoking, alcohol, and a whole range of addictions. They are truly an amazing class of drug and generics will be available in upcoming years, which will make them much more affordable.
I am ridiculously sticky, the cats have melted, and for some strange reason boyo smells like pickled bamboo. Bring on 10pm!
Predictable post is predictable.
TIL that pickled bamboo is a thing
Yeah, throw a few in many curries or stir fries for a nice crunchy thing with a tart lift. Cheap as and keep near forever in the fridge.
The doonas are dry. The world can end now and I won't care.
tsunami from giant meteor wets the doonas
Grrrrr. After spending the morning trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored in the bathtub, I am seriously invested in getting the damned things dry before storing them ready for winter. And this is the first weekend day this summer where there's been a hope in Hades of getting them dry. Effing feathers. Next 35 plus day on a weekend is the rugs. If I'm lucky, there'll be a howling wind for faster drying.
Wet doonas now 15000 km away on small island
That small island is former Mount Buller
The major tectonic split that moved the Mt. so far ate your clothesline

What I find interesting is that the renders of the State Library station entrance artwork more clearly show there will be (or might be) a building above.
I can't find any info on it... wonder what it is?
- well that went down easy. Cheers y'all.
I find that one (and most commercial gingers) to have a chemical back taste. LickPier is the goer.
We haven't been able to find Lick pier for ages, they went bust. Someone has apparently bought them out, but I haven't seen (or even looked for) any for at least 12 months. I'm shattered as I don't like the taste of most alcohol, but I did like them.
Yeah, my partner says the same. I don't get the aftertaste.
Lucky you! We used to just brew our own but ginger has been bonkers expensive for a while now.
Itβs nice to see magpies and noisy miners making use of the bird bowl for drinking and splashing in. Hope they are doing ok in this heat, glad I could help them out.
Bad day to be fluffy
My silly black cat has declared today is an outdoor day. I check her very frequently, pet door is open and she's hanging around in the shade outside. Bloody weirdo.
