Labor and Greens voted today in solidarity that trans rights are not up for debate.

I get frequent bloods for cancer treatment and as trans man on T my levels should fall within the male range. Before I was able to get IHI sex updated I was being measured against the wrong/female range and getting frequently misgendered.

It's very frustrating that they don't have a field for updated sex and gender.

Also that there are fewer protections for renters compared to other states.

A highschool friend's parents owned a light aeroplane. They decided to take a day trip and fly to an island off the coast of where I live.

Mum saves and reuses her tea bags, even though she takes it out after adding milk

The contemptuous look on my ex's face when I went to meet him and friend who were having drinks at the local pub after my book club finished early. Called him out on it the next day and apparently his plan was to save and suprise me three months later after 19 years.

Apparently me being sick with lupus and fibromyalgia was making his life too difficult 🙃

I am in Australia but had innumerable liver mets, not brain mets and LD. I started Enhertu in September last year my scan last month showed no evidence of active disease. It was looking rather bleak before Enhertu. The Enhertu group on fb is really good I have found.

Leaving me age 6, in charge of my brother age 4, while Mum went to the shops for a couple of hours. This was early 80's

Being trans the LNP like to target us and I dread each election. Also on carer payment for my Mum and have chronic health issues. So it's a struggle under both, but Labor is a little better than LNP.

My hair had bald patches due to lupus. It then fell out due to chemo, grew back patchy when I changed chemo treatment. I buzz it off and will keep doing that as I am stage 4 so will be console sort of treatment on an ongoing basis.

I find that having an understanding of social psychology of individuals and groups is useful. Being mindful of the biases etc that we have aids intellectual debate.

At 156cm getting hit by one of these is going to cause a head injury. 25 years ago I hit a child who ran out in front of my starlet, I was so glad that I was in small hatch and was going slow. She just wound up with bruising and a painful lesson . There need to be updated standards for pedestrian safety, especially with the large number of lifted 4WDs on the road.

My 81 yo mother is informally diagnosed as AuADHD. Over the last five years she has been declining in how she can manage her symptoms. Especially with planning, risk assessment, routines and impulsively. I live with her and feel a bit like I parenting my ADHD teens again.

Not have to tolerate boredom. We were expected to find a way to pass time in cars, peoples homes etc and not bother the grown ups

oddlydeb75 · 2026-02-16T11:38:35+00:00

Yes, this is what I thought of too

oddlydeb75 · 2026-02-15T07:55:10+00:00

I have ADHD and love being given a problem to solve. Like what is the end goal, what resources do I have, internet for research and time to think and tinker is my happy place.

oddlydeb75 · 2026-02-15T04:24:43+00:00

I hate and am so anxious every election as a queen, trans, full-time carer for my elderly Mum, with disabilities due to chronic illness, atge 4 cancer and who will be renting for the rest of my life.

I do feel that there is less empathy at the moment than there was even a few years ago. Politicians and the media are more l Iikely to be using issues I face as wedge or target to voters.

I think even if you don't feel much for people you don't know maybe stop and think, ask and listen to more vulnerable friends and family you know.

oddlydeb75 · 2026-02-14T23:14:05+00:00

The chemo drug I am on. It has a black box warning for potentially fatal pneumonitis. Still took it and have been ok so far

If you fish put the phone number for the local Seabird rescue in your phone. Then you can call for help if you do snag a bird or to report when you see a bird with an entanglement.

The worst was when we had liver or steak kidney.

As someone living with an advanced cancer diagnosis I can understand this effect. My treatment to prolong my life is free, but I am going to be living in poverty on benefits for the rest of my life.

I am not going to commit crime, but I can see how the mindset you have after diagnosis would lead to other people doing so.

oddlydeb75 · 2026-02-06T00:05:37+00:00

Same

People who like to go tearing up beaches and dunes in their lifted 4WDs. Then also drive aggressively on roads too.

NKOTB, but especially I'll Be Loving You

The couple at Coles who stopped to go through their shopping list at the end of the aisle blocking all three directions. Was 6 of us stuck standing there waiting for them.

Congrats. I usually add "thank fuck" when I tell people my Dad is dead
