People in Carlton shouldn’t be allowed to wear black if they insist on jaywalking.
Bane of my life is cyclists in tarmac colored clothing. You’d think they WANT to end up in the ER.
If I was riding at night I’d wanna be lit up like a Christmas tree.
Oh I am. Hi-vis vest, lights fore and aft, and gold sparkly duct tape on my bike carrier and wheel rims. And hi-vis gloves for signalling. Just wish more people did likewise. Worst I ever saw was a young woman with her BABY in her bike carrier - black/charcoal grey clothing, no lights, no helmet and wobbling down the centre line of the road and not stopping at stop signs or signalling. And wearing a long long scarf that was easily long enough to get caught in the wheels, Isadora Duncan style. I’m cool with her decision to risk her life, but her BABY??? Not cool.
and without even any lights on?! Suicidal… I wish I could say I’ve never seen any but they’re really not uncommon.
People anywhere shouldn’t be allowed to wear black if they insist on jaywalking.
That is very true. I can’t understand why people would stop in the middle of a two lane road that’s poorly lit wearing dark clothing. It’s rampant here.

YOU’RE NAUGHTY
Drat it. Washed my fluffy robe, now awake far too early with out my warm thing to wear.
Sorry for the trauma dumping yesterday. I feel a bit less shit(mentally) today I think.
Physically I feel like complete shit lmao. Might be coming down with something. We’ll see.
Have you never read any of my comments? That was nothing. Insert “that’s not a trauma dump, THIS is a trauma dump” meme here
Jokes aside, don’t feel embarrassed or apologetic for the trauma dumping. Gotta get it out somehow. Sometimes random internet people are the best option. I’m glad you’re feeling a bit better, and hopefully after a nap you start to recover
You need to let it out sometimes. It’s better than bottling it all in.
It can really help knowing you were able to speak and talk about it even if nothing changes.
The sun is beautiful outside. Maybe take 5 mins to go outside and soak it up a little.
Hope you’re feeling better soon.
It’s totally fine. It’s understandable to want to keep everything under wraps but sometimes you just need to yell about it
The sunny sky today has given me a lighter mood. And is going to be 20C the next few days!
I’ve just caught up on the Australian breakdancer. It’s so very bad. The sprinkler and the play school kangaroo hop moves were great, but the sprayed roach was glorious. I watched on repeat laughing. 5 stars.
Where do I see this? I don’t watch the Olympicals or any other sport, usually seems like a boring waste of time. But I’m feeling left out now
I saw it on tv. I tried to google find a clip for you, but seemed to be a struggle to find it (maybe Olympic content is licensed?). Anyway, this one has the highlights. Breakdance
I was overwhelmed by cringe and couldn’t watch the whole thing.
so 5 hoppits

Awake after some very strange but weirdly satisfying dreams (ok one brief nightmare at 12 about escaping my dad - but felt good to remind myself I’m quite safe here and have choices)
Feeling really good after yesterday, I think it must be the extra sun exposure. I take plenty of vit D but there must be something else about the sun that’s just really good for the body…
Don’t want to be up though, so I shall just snuggle in bed feeling grateful and secure reflecting on all the good things I’ve got
Stayed in bed for an alarming amount of time today watching Fast Forward and Full Frontal clips after someone on the other site mentioned that the infamous breakdancing reminded them of Jane Turner doing gymnastics as Berylina Stumpy…
Why do I sabotage myself like this! Spent a very large part of a very fine day in bed, when I actually HAD energy to do other things if I’d just put away the phone. Could’ve indulged in videos at night instead. Now I am behind on stuff for next week. At least I got a brisk 30min walk in rather than sitting in negativity.
I watch tv in the mornings and then do work and activities until bed time. Morning is my time. :)
I did the same, but on the couch. Watched some tv but was mostly on my phone (and I looked at that clip too!). It does feel like I’ve wasted the day but was feeling pretty blah earlier, so maybe needed some downtime. Good on you for getting a walk in - I reckon half the battle is just getting out of the house sometimes.
Half the battle is getting out of bed, for me 😭 once I’m actually out of my cocoon it’s easier to get going. I think I’ve been so fatigued recently that my body needs some conditioning to want to do something with my life. I fit the walk in with a time sensitive errand. It’s the only way I seem to get any exercise in.
It has been nice to completely and fully blob out in some ways though. I feel ready to get stuck into some uni work tomorrow!
Procrastinating watching my uni lectures by trying to play Sweet Child O’ Mine on the ukulele. I don’t know how to read tabs.
@LowExperience2368 @Seagoon_
Tabs are great to learn finger picking.
Not all arrangements great.
Solo Ukulele für Einsteiger by Winifred Von Welti free ebook is good and all on YouTube, if you like classics.
Facebook’s AI search suggestions are crazy. Just saw one suggesting I might want to look for “mayo related customer service stories”.
I would totally read those
*shitty mood COVID rant
Still no smell or taste. Busied myself with laundry and mopping to try and stop being angry. Can’t go out in the backyard for too long because MIL had a dude over to cut down the bottlebrush tree and rip half the garden out. She hasn’t got a plan really, just felt like replacing half the garden beds with more bloody lawn 🤦🏼♀️. It wasn’t necessary and looks shithouse, just like the barren wasteland of a front garden I try not to look at. Still strongly positive test, looks like I’m out of work until at least Wednesday. As a casual worker this isn’t good.
I generally despise lawn. It’s boring, water hungry, and itchy. Use clover or chamomile or something instead.
I’d love to do something like that out front. Eliminate lawn altogether, it’s boring and redundant in terms of our particular household. Nobody plays on the front lawn, it’s just useless. Out the back I’d have food production for humans and native birds as my priority. And as little lawn as possible, preferably none! I have to admit, the back lawn is about 60+ years old and has been well looked after (bout the only thing that has lol) and it is pleasant to walk on, but for the amount of time anyone spends actually doing that it’d be better off as something else.
Hahaha. 😂
Love it!
🤣
Can I just have a fucking break? I put a cat down three weeks ago, and now a dog has fucking cancer?
Can I just get a month where nothing fucking goes wrong?
That’s extremely rough mate. I’m incredibly sorry. I hope some good turns come your way soon and that you dont need to fight battles at work to take some time off
Hugs. That’s awful.
Oh shit man I’m sorry, that’s fucked.
I’m so sorry, that is devastating. Sending you my love, please let me know if I can help in anyway 💜
I’m so sorry. Internet hugs.
so many hugs
I’m so sorry. It doesn’t let up
Hugs. The worst news. So sorry for you and your family.
🫂
I’m crossing my fingers for the best
Me: all I want right now is to watch a streaming service My tablet: ?!&@/[>update&×)(@:;$&fuckyou&#]<;@;@;×
TV?
Lovely day out with friends - love youuuu
Sky pretty.
It’s far too cold to get out of bed and look, so I’ll take your word for it
