I'm a middle-aged single dad living on the Atherton Tablelands, Australia. I work in Aged Care. Hobbies include tabletop roleplaying games, casual computer gaming, and short hikes. Take it as read that I believe in all the usual left-wing, egalitarian stuff, but I rarely post about any of it.

Last Notes npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller Iron Gate: In #Valheim, we give you the tools to build any kind of Medieval European structure. Me: https://mediacdn.aus.social/media_attachments/files/116/469/703/908/774/948/original/1abe340bf3a8d678.jpeg https://mediacdn.aus.social/media_attachments/files/116/469/705/199/488/376/original/2b9026cec18eff4d.jpeg npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller In the 1930s, the British Interplanetary Society developed the world's first space suit. This is a replica of what would have been a functional suit (as best the science of the day could predict), not a fanciful costume. People, we could have had moon knights. https://mediacdn.aus.social/media_attachments/files/116/316/938/485/367/646/original/c119263f17ce5898.jpeg npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @nprofile…h94j "Pierce Brown" is a pornstar name, surely. npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller Insane decals on this car. Look at the golden hood ornaments. https://mediacdn.aus.social/media_attachments/files/115/054/870/870/371/921/original/5b732b2fcc77da52.png npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller I've just done a meeting with a mortgage broker. I am exhausted. I think they know I'm a little kid piloting a saggy old man body. npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller Adventure! I was just settling in to go to sleep when I heard a screeching and fluttering. A rainbow lorikeet had somehow gotten inside. I grabbed it before the cats could, and the damn thing bit me with its savage parrot hook beak designed for chewing nesting holes in trees, right on the web of skin between my thumb and finger. It latched on and kept increasing the force, a mouth full of human skin not preventing it from screeching over and over. So I was screaming in pain, it was screaming in terror, I rushed outside and threw it into the air., and it flew away. I assume it was unhurt, but under the circumstances I couldn't really check. I am not unhurt, I am bleeding buckets. And I'm not at all feeling sleepy. npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller Damn, the takahē really is like a globe of the world on legs. https://mediacdn.aus.social/media_attachments/files/114/832/629/158/415/648/original/670e159d961ff600.jpeg npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @nprofile…h94j I recall a story about Second Life, a platform where people could be anything they wanted. And some folks did pole dancing for in-game credits. They just left their computers running while the avatar followed a set routine in some other player's virtual strip bar, to be paid pretend money to buy pretend clothes and stuff. So I imagine one could quite likely spend a digital eternity doing menial online work to pay the bills. Good news! Your uploaded consciousness doesn't get tired, so no need for breaks! npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @nprofile…h94j Reminds me of the town in Wales where my grandmother came from. It was a Norse settlement called Fiskigarðr. In the 19th century, someone decided it wasn't a very English name, so they changed it to Fishguard. Which makes no sense. Maybe the fish are armed. With pikes. npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @nprofile…h94j Don't mess with those gangs, they know they don't have long to live so they have nothing to lose. npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller Here's the thing about rainbow lorikeets. They are endemic across the east coast of Australia. From the tip of Cape York down to somewhere in Victoria. At any given point, rainbow lorikeets can easily and successfully breed with their neighbours. BUT! Take a rainbow lorikeet from Cairns and put it with a sexy lorikeet from Sydney, and they will not produce viable offspring. I can't remember what it's called, genetic drift or something. This random fact brought to you by the following sponsors: * The rainbow lorikeets making a noise outside my window * Autism * Absolut vodka I love youse all! #WildOz #Birds #Genetics npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @nprofile…h94j On a similar theme, is there a way to say "leg bone" in Swedish that makes sense? npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @nprofile…h94j I had a copy of Kipling's Just So Stories like that. I might still have the book somewhere, all torn and brown. npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @nprofile…6urt Oh, and also (forgive me, you most likely know this, but I'm feeling depressed and oversharing trivia helps), in Gesta Danorum, Baldr was the bad guy, a horrible warlord immune to normal metal., who made everyone's lives miserable and short. Until Loki told Hotherus about a magic sword ... named Mistletoe. npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @nprofile…6urt I thought it was because mistletoe is soft and bendy, so not a threat, but that makes sense. Did you know that mistletoe evolved in Australia, and we still have the most species? Also, corvids evolved here, so you're welcome, Norse myths. Oh, and there's a type of mistletoe that doesn't even have leaves. It grows inside cactus, 100% parasitic, and you only know it's there when a flower pops through the skin like a prettier Alien. npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @nprofile…g4gu https://mediacdn.aus.social/media_attachments/files/114/118/749/846/051/028/original/7b61f5c5a1b71155.jpg npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller Today in #Valheim, Sten took a break from building to explore a bit. He found a swamp containing that lovely iron. a He put down a portal, and was soon joined by @nprofile…h4s9 . So successful were they, that the little karve was soon full of iron, with a pile extra that just wouldn't fit. Sten refused to make two trips., He portalled home, and offloaded everything he was carrying, so he could hold the iron himself. Soon the merry Viking was sailing through the deadly Mistlands, wearing nothing but a belt of strength and a worried frown. He made it back to Weston safe and sound, offloaded his iron, then as he was walking to get his clothes, a deathsquito killed him. Because it's always the bloody deathsquitoes. https://mediacdn.aus.social/media_attachments/files/114/050/757/535/060/601/original/1e3bfa28823bfb67.png npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @npub1xn9…xx39 I urge you to watch the movie Electric Dreams. This is exactly what happens. The dude has a smart home, and his AI makes a love song by scanning thousands of existing songs. This movie came out in the *1980s*. npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @npub1xn9…xx39 Congratulations. npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller Sitting in Atherton, waiting for the courtesy bus, looking at this guy wheeling around his crucifix sound system. https://mediacdn.aus.social/media_attachments/files/111/287/930/969/822/496/original/a469b883d22ddc21.jpg npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller At home, much closer to the actual fires. No filters, the fire isn't that far from my house. Not at risk yet, but preparing just in case we have to go tonight. https://mediacdn.aus.social/media_attachments/files/111/260/364/523/406/925/original/fe6711a02269f726.jpg npub1enkd6jhz0ynfk6d393f28xeqtz08096es8v4207fmgllvkky4jwswnq7jz Si Fuller @npub1zdz…tl8u I'm autistic, what does the story mean? Is it just a silly story, or are the animals types of people? Is there a moral?
