@davebloustien We had a millipede plague at my primary school. Similar ick factor (but I suppose millipedes aren’t cute and fuzzy)

Imagine a cute little fuzzy, squirmy caterpillar. Now imagine collecting a dustpan full of them from your floor and walls every night. Kw imagine throwing them into the garden only to turn around and spot another dustpan full that you missed.

Our house is in the middle of a full blown caterpillar plague and it’s so much more disgusting than you can imagine. I haven’t been this creeped out by something small and furry since I learned who Ron Jeremy was.

@alison_reeve My local bus service has some electric buses - lovely and quiet with no engine background noise! Love them!

@davebloustien @David_M_Green Or the later “I bin down to Cunninghams warehouse yes siree!” era range. Or the Airport hotel late night ads!

@David_M_Green Or Barnacle Bill’s, TBH

Anyone over 20 from Adelaide has no excuse for not getting 100% of these

@davebloustien 80s music is our family music consensus genre

My wife: cool, listens to unsigned indie hip hop edm fusion Me: a dag, listens to Grebo and 80s synth pop My 5yo: denies having a favourite, “daddy, you know what song I have stuck in my head?” … youtu.be/4K1x-y5ckIs

@Nwilliams1996 Hooray! 🤞🏻

PhD thesis submitted!

@Brocklesnitch Total Recall for cheesy Arnold schw sci fi action!!

Please tell me a big dumb action movie to watch. It MUST be under 2 hours, and it can’t be too realistically violent because my gf doesn’t like it ok!

@davebloustien Your South Australian-ness is showing…

Look, I'm pretty great in a professional context, but just signed off an email to a client with 'thanks heaps', then saw what I had done and died inside.

@alison_reeve Me too. And try to get my kids to watch…

Manly Dam circuit walk - things are flowering!

@Monadeng @ARC_Tracker I think they were just sent to research offices for consultation at this stage

@ARC_Tracker why arent these dates publically available yet?

@ralphbuttigieg @LisaZembrodt I use a silicon mat under my wok to stop it scratching the glass. My rickety old wok didn’t sit flat also so we did get a new one.

@LisaZembrodt Can a wok use it?

Electrification panel: we need actual users of induction cooktops to spread the word of how great they are. Challenge accepted! I replaced my gas cooktop with induction and in absolutely love it. It’s fast, efficient, and doesn’t spew fumes into the lungs of my kids. #aces2022

@vacuumofmyheart @JanetLinda1 @TamePunk @clementine_ford Did you have to?

@JanetLinda1 @TamePunk @clementine_ford And it's going to linger...

@lesleyhitchens Had to take the letter knock out approach today, which looks odd but worked: Wordle 321 4/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ ⬛⬛🟨⬛🟩 ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

@davebloustien Oh, no that’s the Banana Splits…

@davebloustien Roller skating things in colourful furry suits? Do I remember correctly?

The people have spoken and it wasn’t obscure enough. How about this one? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meatballs…

@emmafcamp I rarely see men wondering aloud if they are doing both things well enough (still). Remember: mothers 2 generations back were juggling labour intensive housework with child minding. Imagine hanging out with marine biologist - way cooler! 😎

This International Day of Women & Girls in Science I am juggling mum life and fieldwork. It’s a challenge & I always question if I’m doing both well enough, but I am extremely thankful to be a #scientist & #mum. #INTERNATIONALDAYOFWOMENINSCIENCE #coralreefs #marinebiology
