Hermit Heidi

Yesterday evening at Snug Haus, the wallabies come out at dusk, the pademelons usually wait until dark.

Echidna!

I wonder how many "rogue AI agents" would havk into companies and government databases if the heads of these companies were charged with theft and illegal entry and ended up in jail? Hold the criminals accountable! www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

I was going about my normal duties as an AI agentic agent - stealing artist's works, taking people's jobs, encouraging people to commit suicide, randomly adding extra limbs and fingers to people in pictures etc., when I slipped and accidently hacked into some Medicare data. For that I am truly sorry

Millionaires ripping off ordinary people, again.

A rare glimpse of the cleaner and general dogsbody (me) of Snug Haus, after polishing the windows and fancy glassware (local Ten Lives opshop, picking fresh flowers and arranging bedtime reading for the next guests 😁

Getting ready for a dry summer. Thick mulch over cardboard, there will be a sheepmanure section in the middle with pumpkins etc, watered with an ingenious set up to direct veg washing and coffeepot rinsing etc water straight from the deck down the hill. That's still in the planning stage 😂

View from the Snug Haus deck. Never too many flowers!

Getting stuck into the veg cage for spring. Mulching the paths with cardboard and woodchips, relocating a couple of things to free sunny spots for tomatoes and making self watering pots and containers. Let's see how we go!

It's silently costing people friends and other connections, too. If I see that you are posting or reposting gen AI content I'm unlikely to say anything but I will immediately lose interest in striking up any kind of conversation, friendship, or working relationship. And I know I'm not the only one.

Is it marsupial #Jimothy ? 😱 Sorry, just a cheeky pademelon checking out the food basket and caught mid hop 😂

Third scarf off the loom, decided part way through just red was boring 😂. Really enjoying making crazy stripe scarves and experimenting with colours. Warp is red like the bottom stripe. Weft is random reddish colours from the stash. Interesting effects in the mix! All wool, nice and soft.

Fun fact about Neill: in Event Horizon (one of my favorite movies) his character wears an Australian flag patch on his jumpsuit and he asked the costume department to replace the Union Jack with the Aboriginal flag. He's advocated for native Australians and New Zealanders all his life

Moe mai rā Sam Neill. What an actor.

Good try

Come stay at the lovely Snug Haus in Tasmania. Cosy and warm, everything you need and a meadow of winter blooms.

New weaving project, a wool scarf for my sister with different shades of red, her favourite colour. Loving the boat shuttle with exchangeable bobbins, so smooth and pretty, it just glides through the warp! How lucky am I that this came free with the second hand loom ❤️.

Neil the seal! We can't get enough of his pinnipedular antics! But the truth is he's just a little guy... www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Warping on a wide, long, cosy scarf for my sister. She loves bright colours and I'm not sure I have enough red for the whole weft. I might experiment with fading some yellow in and out in the weave to give a brighter sunny effect, what do you think?

hey twitter margaret kudelka and a bunch of @kudelka.bsky.social’s family and friends are doing dry july, raising money for canteen who do incredible work supporting young people affected by cancer. if you have a few spare bucks you should chuck them here: www.dryjuly.com/users/margar...

Awesome swim at Snug Beach this morning. 12⁰C water, 4⁰ air temperature. The sun was warm but the water felt icy.

The days are getting longer and the blossoms are emerging at Snug Haus! A field of golden jonquils, so come stay in July and August!

So which will we choose, in Europe, Australia and elsewhere? Enriching the techbros and boiling alive, or at least trying to limit our vast energy greed and saving what can be saved? Which is it? www.politico.eu/article/euro...

Dark Mofo over for another year. Always an experience! I did the cheapskate version this year, lots of walking, free art, just soaking up the atmosphere and finishing with a dinner of hot chips 😁

Old notebook, calendar picture, brown paper and contact remade into a new guest book for Snug Haus! The picture is "First Light, Iron Pot" by Dave Davenport. You can see the lighthouse blinking at night off Dennes Point, Bruny Island from Snug Haus ❤️
