Adoption Certificate for Nellie, the Daily Thread numbat (with thanks to @Catfish)
Not sure if many people are still into it but it's a big night in the crypto world. Haven't had a night like this for a long time.. without going into the nuts and bolts, there has been a lengthy court case going on and the summary judgement is finally in, and it's good news for XRP ๐
Anyone hearing planes overhead?
was totes cool, three small planes flying circles around Carlton leaving red white and blue smoke trails
Bastille Day perhaps?
Finally finished Arkham Origins after god knows how many years of owning the game. I adore the Arkham series and have 100% (or 120%) every other game multiple times but I could just never get into Origins enough to play it through. Done now though! Still have the collectables and DLC content to go through but that can be another day.
Now I don't know what to do with the rest of my weekend... hmm
Seagoon's Friday night movie review. The First Man. Biography of Neil Armstrong.
I love this movie for the way it has rewritten the narrative of the first man to walk on the moon. For the first time in a movie it shows an astronaut as being an experienced intelligent, active pilot of a space vehicle, not just some person who relies on the engineers and mission control to get him there and back. Not just a warm body that could be replaced by a monkey.
And brave, so brave, even under terrifying and deadly situations he keeps his cool, uses his experience and intelligence and keeps trying.

Am exhausted and have crawled into bed.
The cats are puzzled as I've been later most of this week, between the cross stitch and Zooks parking herself on me about this time of night for a snuggle and snooze.
Cbf cooking tonight. So it's the last of the pumpkin & fetta bread (Piedmonte's) lavishly spread with butter and soft blue cheese, a roquette and tomato salad on the side and a glass of wine. No pics as I ate it all before I remembered to take any. Looked nice though. Does anyone else find spelling rocket as roquette impossibly twee?

I sadly might have to put the Herring on hold, just had to pay for my partner's expected medical expense today so I might have to rethink any extras I was planning to purchase for awhile :(
Afternoon spent at a clink for mein liebe, the issue we got sorted out. Feeling tired now, but apparently there is a birthday party tonight in the inner-west that we were last minute invited to (ex-coworkers surprise party, with their gf organising but she's never met us). Been so social I'm running out of energy lol
Since we are posting dinners, here is mine. Itโs takeaway veg choila. I have no idea what that is (apart from being soy-based veggo), but thought Iโd take a walk on the wild side and order something different for a change. Itโs yum, nice and spicy, and Iโve worked out the granular bits are rice flakes. Photo of small dumplings, rice flakes and veg

Legend
I don't mind so much what the meal is, but I'd like to eat it with a few famous historical figures. Can you arrange that?
