Her eyes were entrancing and I made no effort to struggle as she coiled around me.
Instead I sang a song about the stars at dawn, and how she shimmered just as heavenly - I didn't come up with it myself. I remembered it from a wandering bard, but it was appropriate.
The lamia swayed to my voice, entranced in turn; her coils tightened slightly, not wanting to let go.
"You're a strange lady," she said, "But I want to keep you."
"Likewise."

The only real issue I have with Java is that it's strongly typed, but still has null.
If it had been designed without null (i.e. with just the current Optional<T> type, or with something like C#'s Nullable stuff) from the very beginning, I don't think I would have any problems with it.

I want to put *something* in my bio, but I don't want to claim to be on lands that I'm not on.

I know that D'harawal seasons cover this region (I'm learning to use their seasons, since they match much better than the European seasons), but once again they're south of here
A likely option is the Eora people, but the best source I have for that says that their lands were bounded at the Northern edge by the Kuringai people, which means either 1) I'm in Kuringai territory or 2) since the Kuringai people technically don't exist, this source isn't trustworthy.

I think it would be a good idea to put something like "living on unceded <indigenous people's> land" into my bio.
The issue: I don't know which people were here.
Some sources say Kuringai, except the name "Kuringai" was basically just made up by some white guy, and it isn't a real collection of people.
Some sources say Darug, but then other sources indicate they lived a fair way South or West of here.
