    When will people learn. If your rubbish bin is overflowing, the birds will come with their mates and scatter your shit all over your nature strip and if it ends up on mine I will go out there and relocate it back onto yours with a huff so use your limp wristed hands and push that shit down so the lid sits flush. Dickhead.

    The Gisele Pelicot case really makes my blood boil. All these gutless, horrible men who really do think women are chattel and that their consent means less than a man’s entitlement to pleasure.

      I read this when it came out. Her husband, I have no words. No consent, the STDs… I am also in awe of her courage. I don’t think I’d be able to even leave a room let alone have contact with people ever again.

      If those complete and utter POSs thought they were taking part in a sex game, then maybe the game wasn’t sex so much as domination, and the whole point was the absence of the power to choose. Which to me indicates a very frail and fragile sense of their own masculinity. The husband should be executed imo. Preferably by lethal injection.

      they would treat other men badly too except they only abuse those who are physically weaker than they are

      also, how come Giselle’s doctor didn’t look after her? That puzzles me so much.

      I just read up on it because I was unfamiliar with the case. Good lord what a poor brave broken woman. The husband admitting guilt is of little comfort. What a hideous POS.

      What a fucking pig of a husband. I don’t even know what to say. That poor woman, and her courage

      Edit: She obviously wasn’t moved to another location but would this count as something similar to human trafficking?

    blerp, case of the anxiety wobbles again today. Didn’t help that today’s viewing got cancelled at the last minute. LL has sent through rental ledger as requested, which is all okay, but it’s pretty dumb that some part of my body now gets extremely tense every time I see her name in my inbox or I have to deal with her. Truly silly.

    I have another viewing tomorrow that ticks lots of boxes but “Inspection is a must” and the sudden advertising of this property does make me wonder what’s going on. Pics look a bit too good to be true. Wondering if it’s a case of suspicious neighbours…

    So I went to the street yard sale that Thornbury posted about.

    It was massive , cool and interesting.

    Two types of sellers, those who want to clear stuff out of their house, those who are trying to make money.

    Prices were generally high, often higher than Op shops.

    Lots of kids stuff, lots of over priced old clothes. So many books and by the look of it no one was buying.

    Few dvds, even fewer CDs and vinyls.

    So what did I get. From an old guy who was clearing out a shed, a nutmeg grater, some antique glass bottle stoppers.

    From another stall I got a pair of light weight cargo pants.

    had a nice chat with a woman who fixes up old chairs and does sewing. 🙂

    It was an ok day.

    Tired from my labours, but finally sitting down to relax before bed. I’m rewatching Seinfeld, have needed a comfort show lately. Something I’ve watched before but enjoy watching again, requires not much concentration and is from a simpler time.

    Tell me your comfort show (if you have one).

      Not something you’d expect, but American Dad. It’s mindless enough to semi-engage without getting too bored and while edgy it doesn’t seem to be enough to be genuinely upsetting.

      And the lack of continuity/wacky hijinks resolving back to the status quo means it doesn’t matter about what order or whether the uploader has chopped it up into many out of context chunks.

      I wouldn’t say I was a fan. In fact it’s easier to chuck on for background because I don’t care about following the show. But it’s something that’s kind of reliable to just watch when anxious or tired or flossing or gaming without worrying about closely following the plot or missing anything. It’s Comfortably Dumb.

      Family Guy tries too hard though. Kinda lame. The offensive jokes aren’t even offensive to me, they’re just lazy.

    Edit: sorry for my bus related rant. I still haven’t got my skin swab results back and I’m a bit miffed.

      That was me last week I think or week before in a cafe.

      Like seriously, get some headphones or something if you’re going to watch a video right next to me.

      No word yet? Taking a bit to get the results.

        Well there were 2 swabs done, one for Buruli and one for other stuff. Receptionist said one of them has been completed but they’re doing more tests on the other one.

      theres a real “back and forth” feeling lately. was standing in the shower earlier and sort of realized I feel like im taking the hit of each wave rather than riding them atm. Feel like a lot of us are doing that after covid.

    Downpipe at the p’s fixed! Took about 2 mintues. Saved a few dollaridoos there.

    A few days ago when I was there I said 'hey I’m going to try and fix it this way". He cracked the shits 'I MAKE THE DECISIONS AROUND HERE". Dude has acute NPD but there are work arounds. So I said okay you do it. So I pissed off down the bellarine… Get a call:

    Me: How’s that pipe going Him: The pipe has fallen 10cm I can’t do it. Getting a plumber in a few weeks.

    I get back, go over today (while he’s away)… Turns out he pulled the down pipe down and it disconnected from the gutter. I chuck it back on try and recreate what he did and he must’ve been trying to climb the thing. Easy fix.

    So now I’m putting a mock invoice in his letter box:

    Call out fee: $200 Labour: $300ph x 0.033 = $10 Materials: 4cm of 100mm PVC: $0.5 Use of toilet: -$1 Stealing a glass of wine: -$9

    He will hate that. Apparently he spent an hour trying to do it.

      He may hate it but admit it, you love it.

      Dunno if you’re AFAB or not but it’s fucking spectacular when you pull this shit on a FIL as a woman XD
