I saw sriracha hommus at Aldi and I wanted to buy it to freak my husband out because IT’S NOT HOMMUS IF THERE’S THINGS ADDED TO IT! 😂
Why does it even exist? Everyone who might like this will already have Hommus and Sirracha in their homes.
I guess it’s a novelty. Someone trying to come up with different combos.
jalapeño hummus is the bomb
Using chillis as a vessel to shovel hommus inside one’s mouth is a common thing. Using it in the hommus is a very westernised thing.
It’s not even that good.
What hommus or hommus + sriracha?
The combo. Hommus is a top 3 dip.
Yeah. In a good hommus you should be able to taste all the ingredients. If you add sriracha to it, it fucks up all those flavours.

This is true courage. I salute you.
You are a strong man 💪🏽
Wishing you the best of luck!
Got the word this afternoon that my role is being extended for another 18 months. They couldn’t swing making it permanent, but we’ll look at that again in 18 months’ time. No going back to Operations. All Strategy for me!
Getting paid big bucks to be the ideas man, that’s the life ;)
Doing overtime for the first time ever this week. Only an extra hour per day but it’s really taking it out of me! Little extra money next payday will sure be nice though
Got a cold call for a job that’s a lot like what I used to do so I’m 95% sure I don’t want it, but I’ve got dragged into a chat with the director on Monday anyway despite telling the recruiter it’s probably not for me??
Am bored/curious so I’ll go, although I don’t like wasting people’s time… but geez the recruiter was persistent. I’m sure he must be getting a cut for any interview he scores even though the chance of converting it into a hire is low
They don’t get a cut for the interview, but they do if you are hired and it’s a lot. Something like 5-10% of your salary. If they fill a $100k position, they get something like $10k. Or, their employer does. Which is why you see so many recruiters self-employed.
I figured it should be for hires, not just finding candidates and getting interviews. Guy must be a bit of a rookie if he thinks I’d seriously convert into a hire but I guess it’s a tight market in that specific sector.
Never feel bad about wasting a company’s time when it comes to hiring. Everyone gets jerked around in the hiring process, it’s good to give it back to them now and then
Very fair point. That makes me feel better about going in out of sheer curiosity and to work out where I fit in in the industry and maybe make a couple connections. It has been a long road towards not taking these evaluations too personally (whether positive or negative) or feel like I need to be selling myself at all times. And it’s a small industry, so it’s easy to feel over-conscious about what people think, but I’m sure I can still maintain a decent enough profile with a gracious “thanks but no thanks” at the end of the interview.
OPP, how can I explain it?
(If the real answer to this might involve flamingos or pineapples you can pm me, but I might not be polite)
catfishin! haha

huh. finally remembered my login details on my new phone.
Welcome back! May you not get booted out again by a lemmy update.
many thanks
G’day MW! Good to see you again. I strongly recommend a password manager. I personally use bitwarden and it’s really good. I know it’s a bit nerve wracking putting all your passwords in one place, especially with what happened to LastPass, but as long as you use a strong master password there’s nothing to worry about
hey! nice to see you and everyone again too.
what happened with last pass?? I can get a free account through work, but sounds like I may not want to…
The worst of it is they managed to get breached and had everybody’s password vaults stolen. This isn’t quite code black, as it is encrypted, but you never know if perhaps in 10 years time computers will be fast enough to break into vaults, even the ones with strong passwords. And changing hundreds of accounts is a pain in the arse
I stopped using them a bit before that though, back when they started limiting you to a max of 1 device type on the free tier, so you could only use it on either your phone or computer.
Either of them are ultimately going to be better than just writing down your passwords (susceptible to floods/fires/etc) or using the in built google password manager (or probably apples either). Although if you ever leave your job, or you get stingey management, or whatever, you would probably lose access to your premium LastPass account, so then you have to choose between your phone or computer unless you pick up the coat yourself. It is really easy to move to other managers though, you just have to go to settings and export your passwords then import with bitwarden or whatever
Wow I really waffled. TL;DR is that they got breached and leaked everybody’s password vaults (but not their actual passwords), and also put in some profit increasing strategies a few years ago
🎉
indeed
Hello friend!! 💜💜
thank you!
Try using a password manager! I use Bitwarden.
I have some new book covers!

I’m watching this doco called Love has won: the cult of mother God. Right at the start we are told that Mother God has passed on and her body is still warm so she must be a God. Um no. I think it has to do with the thousand and one Christmas lights wrapped around her mummified corpse. But I’m no scientist. Then it’s apparent they are tripping on hallucinogenics non stop throughout the day. No wonder they are seeing angels. This is fucking hilarious.
Hiya

Kittenpants was swaying a little while sitting so I was worried about the infection moving to her inner ear. Tied her normal carrier to the pram frame and dragged our butts down to emergency. Yep. Ear infection. They prescribed her more drops but didn’t have the ear cleaner wash in stock.
I’m completely wiped out for the next few days, the normal vet and pet shop will likely be shut tomorrow and so I’ve ordered the ear cleaner wash online and will wipe her ears out with warm water until that arrives. Pet shop didn’t have fast delivery… I’m wondering if I should have chanced it in an uber tomorrow morning and just seen if somewhere was open :(
my new orchid flowered today

Lovely. I like that orange shade.
it’s not a spectacular flower but the colour shading is definitely nice
I’ve decided Marketing Cloud isn’t for me and I think I’ll find another job.
Some rather promising Victorian State Government (multiple positions) roles have come up so I’ll try my luck

Careers.vic.gov.au is the best site, I got my SRO contract role through there in 2021. It’s a really good site for public service roles!

My current decluttering spree is like going back in time through all of my various short-lived hobby enthusiasms. Today was fishing. So much equipment, barely used. ☹️
It mostly looks ok, but a rat has had a nibble on a section of padding on the bag’s carry strap. But everything else looks like it’s in good shape, so hopefully I’ll be able to find it a new home. Alternatively I might have an bunch of “is this available” messages followed by ghosting, it’s always hard to tell which way Marketplace is going to go.
Miss Meow enjoyed going through everything with me, although she was not impressed when I added a piece of paper to the rubbish bag she was sitting in.
