Thank you for the advice regarding fixing my nail.

I didn't have any teabags (!!) so I cut up a cotton makeup pad thing, and carefully got the outer layer/casing from that. Double layered, soaked in nail glue. Filed and buffed.

Added the design to hide the slight lump. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ

Erin Patterson's appeal begins today. Fascinating!

Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone · 6 pts · 8d

She's guilty of serving a succulent mushroom meal.

Seagoon_@aussie.zone · 3 pts · 8d (6 replies)

what can she appeal?

I suspect she might appeal that the jury was influenced by the media and thus it was unfair

looks like the lawyers are appealing on a lot grounds

ok, retrial. There is so much evidence she will just be convicted again

evidence because she did it

SpinMeAround@aussie.zone · 3 pts · 8d (5 replies)

There are 7 points she's using. The first one at least it sounds like the judges were almost rolling their eyes.

Seagoon_@aussie.zone · 3 pts · 8d (4 replies)

another point is that the prosecution presented evidence and she had to refute it ๐Ÿ™„

SpinMeAround@aussie.zone · 3 pts · 8d (3 replies)

Right! I understand the idea of innocent until proven guilty, but it seems reasonable she would have to explain why she had that information about something she had lied to police about. Seems wild. I'm really hoping it all just gets tossed out.

Seagoon_@aussie.zone · 3 pts · 8d (2 replies)

it seems she's arguing they used evidence to prove her guilt!

Eagle@aussie.zone · 2 pts · 8d (1 reply)

She thinks that she is smarter than everyone.

Seagoon_@aussie.zone · 2 pts · 8d

yup, you can just tell that these legal arguments are not from her lawyers

Morning ๐ŸŒž today is my Friday. I have a 4 day weekend with the sole purpose of watching all of The International DOTA 2 main event which starts tomorrow at noon and runs til Sunday. It's a $30 million prize pool online game tournament that runs each year.

Pilk@aussie.zone · 2 pts · 8d (1 reply)

I'll be watching too (scattered games but definitely the grand final series). The prize pool is about 10% of that since Valve decided they make enough money.

Two front runners.

One in West Melbourne, one at the other (nicer) end of the CBD. CBD one needs a little bathroom work, but not insurmountable

*Molly the anxious pill hiding German shepherd and *Harry her very tiny support animal/step brother/country dog escaped yesterday when YL tried to leave the house. They were heading for the park. YL screamed at the top of her lungs "MOLLY" and they both came back instantly. "Inside now. The both of you. Im disappointed" she told them. Molly knew she done bad. Harry's a farm dog so he has no road sense.

She also got to clean up 2 cat's vomits from another house.

I come in today and there are suddenly windows on the doors to the kitchen. They're massive fire doors that were just solid slabs and we've had a bunch of close calls from people coming and going through them. Now, suddenly on a Wednesday, we have windows so you can see if someone is coming

Got the brown sea lion as a present for someone. Is he scary? I'm thinking of returning him and finding someone else.

tombruzzo@aussie.zone · 4 pts · 9d

I think that's a very fun face for someone to unwrap. It more depends on the person and if it's their thing

Catfish@aussie.zone · 3 pts · 8d

Befuddled, not scary.
