godam sniffy sneezy cold, I’m so bloody tired
Hope you’re feeling better, too!
Oh joy a car repair bill of more than the bloody thing is worth. Just what the bank account needed.
Oh I’ve been there. It sucks when it’s either that or no car
Yup. And no car isn’t an option re Boyo’s work.
I was half an hour late lol
The people in my team told me I was the best manager they’ve ever had. Put a huge smile on my face.
Because I actually cared about them and not just about myself.
hey fluffy guys 👋👋👋
you deserve all the kudos 🙂
Warmer than the fridge outside!! I might be able to forgoe the fingerless gloves and scarf for our walk this morning.
Today’s main task is going to be polysyrene disposal - all the furniture I bought included a ridiculous amount of the stuff, and I haven’t even opened all the boxes yet. I have a pile in the back of the van to take to the recycling centre in Bayswater, unfortunately there are no recycling options for polystyrene around Ballarat. I’ll probably be able to bring another lot down after the move, as I’ll have to come back to do some more garden tidying etc. anyway. I’ll also have a van load of cardboard boxes to take to the tip, moving things around uses an awful lot of packaging.
I never in all my born days thought this would happen. But on reflection, the article makes a good point about confluent aspirations.
There are some episodes of the QAA podcast on the crossover between the wellness industry and conspiracy theories so this doesn’t feel like a massive jump.
When people are already rejecting vaccines and science it’s probably easier to sell them on eugenics
Yeah, just look at RFK jr
All his weird wellness stuff and proposal of work camps for ‘addicts’ (cough fascism) and now he’s trying to find the cause of/cure autism (cough eugenics)
this is an advancement
at least they believe in germ theory now
Yikes! I knew some wellness products & services were dodgy but this is something else
Feels like the progression of the hippie > antivax > cooker > Nazi theme.
yes
Yeah, the crunchy to alt-right pipeline :( Gotta watch out for that in certain hobbies for sure.
This is especially disgusting though. It’s no longer a dogwhistle but a foghorn. Weird racist cult behaviour masquerading as something wholesome.
having to tell people off for having an ad hoc meeting right next to my desk. The looks they gave me I nearly turned around and said “Bro this isnt even your area! If your gonna sit in IT’s section least you can do is be respectful and not shout at each other 2 meters from my desk!”
I have the same problem, especially when I’m on my break though I don’t have the courage to tell people they’re being too loud and disturbing me,
Good time to start humming stuff complete off key.
Polystyrene has now been disposed of, and I stopped in for some more packing materials on the way back. Oh, alright, it was actually the craft resource rescue place, and the packing materials are mostly bits of fabric etc., but close enough! I also grabbed a couple of rectangular tins with hinged lids which were some sort of promotional hair care thing, but will be great little rubbish bins for the bathrooms. I had plans for a big coffee tin, but these will work better - I might even cover them with the wallpaper I found.
An hour early for my Drs appointment, but it’s better than being late 😂
Edit: ooo she saw me early! #winning!
Power is back on? Yes! What a relief.
I wish I had the energy to sort out more battery powered stuff and physical media for these times just to take the edge off. It’s never hugely long and not frequent but it really gets to me.
I still haven’t fixed the solar panel/car battery combo and at this point it’s unlikely I’ll be able to sort it out >.<
Candles.
I have candles but am very wary of open flames. Even with safeguards I don’t trust them an inch
If you want to go down the battery path these basic lanterns are great. They run on 4xAAA batteries, last for ages, and give lots of light.
Thanks, looks decent
kmart have little LED globes for 2 bucks, Runs off AA batteries. Get some rechargeable batteries and you are laughing. Ikea ones are pretty cheap and great.
Good idea, might grab some
Rechargeable battery packs have been a godsend for me.
If I know ahead of time I’ll get everything ready.
I have a dolphin light which is pretty powerful and bright just incase as well if you’re candle adverse.
Power is out for works and that always stresses me out so badly even when it’s just a few hours. It feels like being cut off from warmth, light, and other people.
I have a solar powered lamp and some power packs but they don’t hold much charge and my phone battery drops so fast (especially when I won’t stop using it). Just waiting for things to go back to normal.
I’ve also spent the day really sick.
I’m grateful for everything I have in life. I just wish it was a bit easier.
Miss Meow has been evicted from Mr Woof’s travel carrier, and I am about to embark on our first trial run down the road for a walk. Finger’s crossed he finds it as comfy as Miss Meow does.
Unwell and wfh (somewhat) today, but got distracted by a house restoration show and have gone down a snoopy real estate rabbit hole
Meanwhile, the warm fluffy oodie I ordered has arrived at work, while I’m at home where it’s chilly
sigh
The kid has something and I think I now have something too. Still gonna get pissed tomorrow night.
and you too
Thanks. Mines a niggle at the moment.
Fingers crossed it doesn’t get worse. I reckon the alcohol will kill it, anyway
Ummm…yeah.
That’s my excuse for wine atm, lol… it’s taken my mind off it at least
get well soon
Thanks :-)
I’m feeling ok, mainly just sorry for myself now, lol. And I got to do some voyeristic pretendy-spendy on realestate I can’t afford
Just heard this banger on the wireless
That’s a blast from the past
Instantly made me think of

and you can definitely see the progression in graphics fidelity over the years!
Such a banger.
Yessss
Can’t sleep, but I’m tired. Humph.
