Sailing away on hopes and dreams
But all's not as calm as it seems
A monster makes noise 'neath my bed
Reluctantly I shuffle so out pops my head
It chews on my bottle and on powercords
This cat I will yeet, I swear to fUCKING god.

No trams running on Collins St this morning sucked all of the hairy balls. I made bad decisions trying to get to Collins/Exhibition (work) and ended up having to walk uphill from Fitzroy Gardens. Rolled the dice on a strategy and lost.

Because mudcakes are now $6.5 or something I have resorted to a pack of mudcake oreos.

Or you can source your own mud for free!

Or eat fruit. Mandarins are super cheap at the moment.

Was at the Fancy Shop yesterday while waiting for traffic to die down and got these to try out thanks to @Force_majeure122's tinned seafood propaganda posts.

Anyone had these before? Recommendations on what to eat them with?

I'll try them out later this week and report back.

seafüdA tin of Officer brand smoked cod liver from Iceland and a tin of Rügenfisch herring in tomato sauce from Germany

I had a tomato one flavoured herring from Aldi last week and I put it in a sandwich and ate it together that way.

It is propaganda for the benefit of y'all!! I'm glad it's paying off. It started with microwaved potatoes and now we're onto tinned fish. What's next?
I haven't tried the cod liver so I'll defer to Thornburywitch. For the herring, however you want, also as per Thornburywitch! I normally just eat them out of the can, but yeh with crackers, over rice, in a pasta. Whatever you want. I just insist you give them a taste by themselves first though
