It’s taco Tuesday! Hope you get to eat some tacos today. Have an amazing day 🌮🌮🌮
These my new kittens Carl, Donut and Mongo. They are basically one cat with three bodies. I think they are a swarm cat.
Edit: As requested, here’s the rest of my fuzzy friends.
Little Munch and Baby Bear protect the dirty bird from Dixie Cup
Lil Munk
Baby Bear
Dixie Cup
Shadow Pup
they’re named after three characters from the “Dungeon Crawler Carl” litrpg series, which is surprisingly entertaining. i collectively call them the dungeon crawlers.
I’m not sure how you manage with three of them - I only have the one, and she manages to swarm all by herself!
They are all adorable.
You should add them to the pets post so we can find them easily whenever we need a dose of cuteness. 🙂
Thought I’d join the masses over here…it’s a lot busier, haha!
Welcome… even though it’s my first day here myself! Was a semi-regular at the old place, but have dropped it with all the crap going on and the way they’re treating their community.
Signed up here yesterday and definitely much more going on DT-wise!
I’ve been a Mastodon convert for a fair while now as well, thankfully a lot of my tech/retrocomputing interests line up with the user base, so I’m enjoying it so fart!
Edit: The typo stays… :|
Welcome to the party, don’t get too high, ask for help before you need it.
Cutest thing just happened.
I work from home, in the garage most of the time. I just left the garage to come into the house, and the fluffy little dude meowed at me, walked to the bedroom and meowed again. I followed him and he jumped up on the bed and meowed, so I sat down and he went straight onto my lap! Totally made my day, he’s not a super outwardly affectionate cat very often.
Spent the past 30 minutes talking shit with two workmates (good shit, not bad shit).
Just joined a meeting and someone asked me something. I was still in a shit-talking mindset and replied ‘sorry dawg, ain’t me’
FUCKING KILL ME RIGHT NOW
After posting my dinner I realised I may have been insensitive to the fact that some people might be struggling right now. My apologies if I have caused any discomfort. So thought I might share some of my cost saving secrets because I like you guys. We are on a one low income so I know how it feels. Here we go.
We have never ordered ubereats. If we get take away my husband goes and gets it. We eat from local take away or we get specials from fast food. We have cut this down from once a week to once a fortnight. We eat out on special occasions.
I go to the local butchers for my meat. If I don’t eat red meat I feel fainty due to low blood pressure so I spread my meat consumption of the week. Most meat I buy is the cheaper cuts plus one special lamb product (that’s why we had ribs tonight). Sometimes I’ll see a two for deal at Coles like sausages or hamburgers and I’ll freeze them. Every 6 months I have to defrost my little freezer so we live off whatever is in there, defrost it, fill it back up.
The vegetables I have in my freezer all the time are peas, beans, broccoli and corn on the cob when it’s available. Everything else I get fresh from the market when in season.
The things that I have in my pantry all the time are pasta, rice, cous cous, chickpeas, canned tomatoes, baked beans, tuna, corn.
I check for half price specials every week. I only buy them if I need them. No point having 6 bottles of shampoo in my cupboard. Also on shampoo and conditioner, I buy pump packs when they’re $6 each. It’s shampoo and conditioner it’s all the same.
I try to make the evening meal serve 4 so my husband has lunch the next day or I’ll make enough for 6 meals so we can have leftovers for dinner the next night.
I freeze bread. You can’t beat toast. Ever.
I can’t think of anything else right now but if you want me to answer any questions I’ll be happy to answer them.
