Since we have a large basement area i am going to be printing out a fritzl mugshot and hiding it in a dark corner. I am aware that I am a bad person and don’t care
Jesus Christ…
😮
Play some background music that is appropriately inappropriate.
Jeeeeeesus
Large basement? In this economy that’s a prime rental opportunity…
The press fawning over “our” Queen Mary is really cringe and gross. She got married so what. She didn’t invent the cure for cancer. Australia isn’t special, deal with it.
I hope the press doesn’t harass her to death. The Ghouls.
There are worse things in the world we can be angry about.
I wouldn’t say I was angry, more repulsed.
That aside what’s your point? That I shouldn’t have posted the comment? Hmm no I don’t think so I’m entitled to critique the medias silly fawning.
It’s a little fairy tale not as bad as the humidity.
All that glitters ain’t gold.
calm down space cowboy
She bailed on Australia to go live in another country. That’s how much she loves Australia
I just put my shower curtain liner in the washing machine, and it made me wonder how many people actually have shower curtains and not glass panels these days. I suspect it is an ever-dwindling number.
I feel like they’re still a feature in accommodation.
I tend to see them as part of shower-over-bath arrangements, which I have. My MIL had her bathroom done out like a hospital bathroom (ie the floor of the bathroom is also the shower floor, so you walk straight in without stepping over anything) and she has a curtain too.
I’ve made a new post named Tucker Time on !foodaustralia@aussie.zone replacing What’s for dinner? That way you can post about your breakfast, lunch, dinner etc.
It would be great if you could contribute unless of course if you live on air. Thank you.
I bought a watering can from coles. I don’t have anything to water but when I do I will be prepared.

best thing is if those develop a leak you can just weldbond seal it. Although the rosettes can be a bugger to clean at times.
I never thought that it might not be functional. In that case I could fill it with fake flowers and use it as an ornament.
been resting and watching sooo much tv and movies 😀
Nick Whites medical receptionist impersonation is spot on and a little too close to reality.
Work goes so much faster when you have something genuinely interesting to investigate. Accidentally stayed late, I never do that!
It’s been a long-ass day, so many calls,
So many people staring at their walls,
Calling us to do some dirty, hard work.I’m trying so hard to talk to them all,
Tell them we’ll pick them up when they fall,
I start at 10am, it’s the only real perk.I tell myself I’m not burning out,
It’s just a busy period,
It’s what this job is all about,
I tell myself I’m not burning out,
It’s just a busy period,
I’m just a bit worn out.so many hugs
and have a beer or two on us 🍺🍺🍻🍻
i got stuck into some sorting and decluttering today, and decided to pull out a bunch of stuff for hard rubbish. I went to book it in and apparently the collection people are taking a Christmas break and there are no collections until February. Oops.
I’ll be offline this week, on a cruise to Tasmania.
Have a good trip. If the Tasmanian Fudge Company is still running bring me back some fudge. 🙂
Have a great trip!
And try and avoid covid…
It’s like a 9 hour boat trip, how lost are you planning on getting to stretch it out to a week?

How on earth did that get approved for the App Store?
Anything can really as long as it’s not a virus.
I made a post on Facebook mentioning I had some time off and now Facebook is suggesting I start a chat group to plan a meetup. All of these “smart” AI/algorithms are really starting to be annoying - it’s like having an idiot friend around who constantly misses the point of things. Instead of adding value like it’s supposed to, most of the time it just takes up time and distracts you pointlessly.
Nothing worse than when technology tries to be “Helpful”
If the technology was smart enough to understand context it might actually manage to be helpful. But when your post is actually about looking forward to spending time at home and not going out, plus it is in a group with 82K members from all over the world and not a great venue to plan an impromptu meetup, then that sort of suggeston coming up is just an annoyance.
What? Who isn’t interested in making a chat group for a Meetup to best use their break?!
I keep getting recommended sci-fi stuff on streaming services. Um you don’t know me at all algorithm.
It would not be so annoying if they didn’t go so overboard on everything. But it’s never just one or two ads, it takes over so that’s pretty much all you see.
If reminds my of a situation my mother had with someone she worked with once. Mum said once that she liked the ginger biscuits they had for morning tea, and this person focused on that to the point of obsession - she would buy and present ginger biscuits regularly, christmas presents would be chocolate coated ginger etc. All presented with the best of intentions because “I know how you like ginger”. Which might have been great if Mum did actually love ginger, but it was a faulty extrapolation from a single passing statement, and instead it was extremely annoying (to the extent she would regularly come home and vent about it, which is why I know about it!).
The way they are using their algorithms now is like that, going way overboard from snippets of information and most of the time being annoying rather than helpful.
Haha. I know that feeling. I got 4 boxes of Maltesers for Christmas this year because I said I liked Malteser bunnies 5 years ago.
Also chocolate Roses. I like them occasionally. I don’t need a years supply. I had to start making cakes and biscuits so I could give away tins. Friends mean well. They know I like tins and Roses.
I guess faulty algorithms are not just a technology thing. Maybe the problem is that the technology is actually becoming too human!
Bummer
I’ve been struggling for hours to get my abdominal pain down to manageable levels and am currently back on a liquid diet. The severe pain is happening so frequently now and all the specialists so far have just shrugged or been jerks. Trying to get in with a pain management clinic via a private route now because this is debilitating.
I’m sorry, there are still areas where modern medicine just goes 🤷♀️
Yup. ‘Guess it’s all in your head, GL.’
Except they don’t say good luck.
Yeah, it’s more like, ‘welp, I’m all out of ideas so…you’re on your own’.
I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I hope they can help.
Thanks. Fingers crossed there’s something
