in non pooh news, got a wild hair up my arse yesterday and ripped up half the backyard paving. His Lordship toppled the rest this arvo (I left it for him to go SMASHY SMASHY with the sledge, he so rarely gets to)

IN MY DEFENSE it’s a pathway we’re gonna replace anyway because 1) it’s too narrow for my garden trolleys and 2) the bloody thing’s subsided to the point where it’s at a 40 degree angle and 3) I need the new level for the end point between the food garden ground level and the path for aforementioned trolleys. And I didn't mean to. I set the goal of moving my fruit trees to the other side of the greenhouse, and edging down it so we could plot.

But then I looked at those nice clean edges and thought β€œI could get a pry under there, I wonder how easy it would be?”

Surprisingly easy as it turned out. Especially with a 2 meter lever. But then I had a meter and a half of 15cm thick concrete with bluestone chips embedded through it at a 90 angle. No point in letting it back down after all that, and I couldn’t leave it propped up. what if it fell down on wildlife? To the sledgehammer! So then I had pieces that will become the crazy paving on the new path.

Then I started wondering if the next piece would come up that easily and, well, curiosity, cats and now we're missing 8m of pathway. Birds are going apeshit on the rolly pollies.

Musk believes in it, but has no interest in ameliorating it. His plan is 'find a new planet'

"In a move straight out of lysistrata, an ancient greek comedy where women withold sexual favours to stop a war"

I literally read that shit as part of a three month subject in year nine

You seem to have an issue conceptualising experiences that are not your own.

The fact that neither side even breathes the word Lysistrata explains a lot about how you got there
