This is why I can’t have nice things. Flyscreen-Licker lol
why 🤷♀️
I am having moderate success stopping mine from eating the furniture with this:
I’ll check that out, thank you!!! 🙌
Gibson’s soul mate lol

Looking at the servo across the road last night was like looking at the poster for the exorcist
Then you see some methhead spider walk down the footpath with a ciggie in their mouth, and you realise it’s actually The Exorcist 1.5: Bogan Shenanigans

Hello possum!
I don’t deny all this optimism since Kamala got the nomination and is now leading in the polls feels good. 😊
I wonder if it will hold steady till November. I hope so. I really do.
Ever since 2016 I really don’t trust the average “normal” American to go out and actually vote. I could believe Kamala leading all the polls until the election when Trump’s goons turn out in greater numbers than ever and enough minorities/women are just somehow disenfranchised enough to not vote. I REALLY hope that doesn’t happen though
E: and I also really fear for another Jan 6
Effing terrifying if not. I’d be green in that world because surgery, and fuck that shit eight ways before Tuesday.
My new raincoat arrived today, so it won’t rain again for a good six months I reckon.
Taking one for the team I see. We thank you!
I finally found my long-lost ‘good’ umbrella, so I’m doing my bit too.
I already appreciate you - just went and stood in the sunshine for 10 minutes, sleeves up and warmth on my face. Hope your new raincoat is lovely!
We weren’t imagining it - plague stalking the streets of melbourne Take care out there folks.
It seems my original logon still works on my work computer - whew! May retire new logon or might keep it for use at home only.
My BIL had legionnaires, it comes from breathing in dirty water mist. People who are immune compromised are especially vulnerable, otherwise healthy people need repeated exposure .
Guaranteed this outbreak is from dirty AC.
Be careful out there.
This must have been the one case of the plague I heard about a week ago.
On another note did you find out what your password is?
Nope. But I’ve clearly saved it to my work computer. Not going to argue.
oh ok, if you’ve saved it on your work comp, go into the browser options and you can see your stored passwords if that helps.
Thanks! There are large gaps in my computer savvy.
Sleep school is alright. This facility is really nice and the staff are great. The food is a little lousy, which is to be expected. It’s pretty much hospital grade microwave meals, but they’re provided and you’re free to head out and do whatever you want.
I should have taken the week off but with how everyone was feeling last week it was still up in the air.
I hope you get the answers you’re looking for mate
It’s working. Keeping things going at home will be the tricky part, but there are things we can already take away from this residency
I think I’m sick again today
🤧
I was soooo tempted
Back in the land of the frozen toes, but I now have a dwelling with a split air system. I’m actually a little surprised at how well it heats. Even beats the portable fancy schmancy Dysons. And… there will actually be aircon this Summer (or whatever weird semblance of a season we have in lieu of Summer). Strangely, I have survived most of my home life without it. I am looking forward to actually being able to sleep through hot weather (although the weird fan in the face thing I had going was working reasonably well).
On my usual weird side notes because, you know, I’m always late to the party… I did discover Acrobat can search within PDFs in a folder. I lament past me for the amount time I have wasted remembering something and then manually searching through endless individual PDFs to find said something. Such a basic thing. (Also am sadly slugging away at a well overdue assignment. cries)
I hope everyone is warm and well.
Wait… teach me this PDF searching magic so that I may put it to good use.
(The grey box is showing a search I already performed. It should show the empty field when you first open it and you can select anywhere on your drive.)
Edit: Hehe, thanks for the cheeky distraction. <3
Holy shit that’s awesome. Thanks for the tip!
You are an absolute legend!!! Annotated graphic and all - thank you so very kindly. I will be saving this for use in the near future and will think gratefully of you
Split system heating allows for a very precise and gentle heating of a space that can’t really be matched by other heating systems. It is also energy efficient as well provided you have a reputable brand.
a very precise and gentle heating of a space
You have described it perfectly. That’s exactly what it is and I find this to be quite puzzling.
You’ll get used to it. So much so you’ll wonder how you lived without it.
I’m disappointed lawn bowls is not an Olympic sport.
It’s in the Commonwealth Games so just wait 2 years.
Yeah I know, I just like my lawn bowl fix.
Carls Jr going into administration, can’t say I’m surprised, nobody needs to feel any FOMO on this one.
Only ever had it at Brisbane Airport. Was underwhelming.
I feel the same about opporto. Only ever had it at melb airport when I was flying out to Adelaide. It sucked
Oh man don’t get me started on Oporto.
Picture it, late 1990’s. @mysticgreg is working in Sydney and living in the southern suburbs, right near one of the early Oporto stores. IT WAS GLORIOUS. Double-Bondi burgers with tender, juicy chicken fillets bigger than your head, and chilli hot enough to melt the paper they came in. Rappas so good they would launch you into another dimension.
Time moves on, I return to Victoria. Decades later I stumble upon an Oporto and think OH YES, IT HAS RETURNED TO MY LIFE. I order. I unwrap the food. I look confused. I taste it. I cry. I mourn. I leave.
It is but a shadow of its former self :(
@mysticgreg @Baku Not surprised about Carl’s Jr.
I went out of my way to try one when they first came to Australia, and underwhelmed is an understatement.
It’s basically Hungry Jack’s, but somehow worse.
I remember trying Oporto when they first opened a store in Chapel Street. A good friend of my ex-gf insisted we try a burger at this joint that’s like Nando’s but 1000x better.
Even as we were trying to find parking at midday in the side streets of South Yarra, insisted it would be totally worth it.
(This would have been around 2004-ish?)
I was dubious, but went along for the ride.
And I remember that it was actually not that bad.
And that’s not something I’ve ever felt eating their food since then.
I thought it was just me!
Definitely not just you! If I ever get my hands on a time machine one of the first places I’m heading is Brighton Le Sands Oporto in 1998!
@mysticgreg Unfortunately, they’re now owned by the same conglomerate that turned Red Rooster into a home brand KFC knockoff. And also Chicken Treat (ask your friend from Perth, they’ll tell you).
I thought it was ok, but it was pricey for “Ok”
A couple of their breakfast things were passable but by no means ‘good’. Shakes were decent though RIP.

My “didn’t think about food early enough and now I can’t be arsed” dinner was a mushroom and goat’s cheese omelette. And it was delicious.
yum
I had chicken vegie curry with rice and home made naan
What are y’all grateful for today? Sorry it’s kinda late.
Randomly bumped into an acquaintance I met through volunteer gardening at uni and we got coffee. Didn’t get anyway to contact her, but I told her to come to volunteering next week. She quit last semester and treated it as a therapy session, but I’m sure the gardening leader who loveddddd her chattiness will be happy she’s back.
Also grateful for actually going to in-person classes today. Even though we didn’t do much and it was all intro shit, I kinda felt like achieved something just by being there and paying attention.
And the subject I failed two years ago because I didn’t submit most of the assignments. The one assignment I did submit is exactly the same, just different names and slightly different scenario. There’s the whole academic integrity thing that I need to uphold, but I can smash the assignment out in a couple of hours because the main ideas I have from last time.
Found cool citrus trees on campus behind a building with lots of fruit. And turtles. They’re hard to get a picture of because of the reflective glass, but I will be sure to take one next time I’m there.
Overall, a good day. It’s been a while since I’ve a day where mentally I felt okay! A stark contrast to the whole being sad over my ex moving on and lying in bed all day. I let it hurt, I caught myself, and am slowly getting out of this funk. I deserve to feel better, and am grateful that I’m finally realising that :)
Grateful for Mr Seagoon’s kindness and patience.
