I spent a week photographing the #Occupy #Melbourne back in 2011. From the initial days through the aftermath of the police assaults. I think I'll share some of my #photos. #photography, #occupy #melbourne #police
Blue meets Henley, the Pelican. Here's to a very much better 2018. https://mastodon.social/media/CWTYnF8abR-itbqN_vw

This is one of the things I've been working on in therapy for the last few years. I'm emotionally numb over it. It's one ingredient of my decades of emotional numbness. Unable to trust, unable to love myself, unable to form meaningful relationships and all the ancillary baggage that comes with it.
Back to #catsofmastodon. Doof and Blue being young kittens.

Made a few #dumplings tonight. Most packed off into the freezer for future quick meals.. #food #cooking. https://mastodon.social/media/hXsO3wh-uVxKiEwlXsk
Ok, #shadows #photography #business. During a time I was trying to manage my previous work and persistent illness, and still mobile. An expression. https://mastodon.social/media/g236THkyIYD9D5oiMVg
Made a Vietnamese chicken coleslaw with coconut cream rice for dinner tonight. We're having our first hot'ish streak in what will likely be a hot summer.
It was light and tasty on a 32 degree day. What's fun for me though was continuing to build my young niece's (12 & 16) tastebuds. Fish sauce based dressings in particular.
They are beginning to think of it as just being good and yummy. I like expanding their food world.

Most of my recently posted shots were during a respite after a year of treatment for an unusually aggressive late onset of #ankylosingspondylitis
I was beginning to regain mobility and began taking shots again. I've always liked this one.
In case you're curious, here's the Wiki on Shot Towers:

I live sorta close to both in Melbourne. Didn't know anything about them until moving here. Inventive folks, us humans.

Made Thai Beef Salad for dinner tonight. Fish sauce is a wonder seasoning! I love that I'm exposing my teenage nieces to so many flavours.

In case you're curious. I didn't forget to rotate those images. That's what we wanted. #photography #choices #film #orientation

I'm not a very socially media-type person. But I'm making a go of it here. Need to complete a profile. Tuesday was a good day in US politics. Things are bubbling up in Australia with hopefully positive changes over the next many months.
Marriage equality PTSD survey is closed and the bigots are working hard to make any legislation about the right to say FUCK YOU to the folks they hate so much. The process is about to enter its second phase of trauma to the LGBTQI community. Making a law.
It's disgusting that @brisbanecityqld allows gambling vans to set up in Queen St. Yuck! https://t.co/itU8EHz9Vq
I lied. One last, unshared abstract. Out of the camera. #abstract #photography. #street. https://mastodon.social/media/SUAmyaO9SRbI869F0kA
