I need that fucking cable I’ve been saving for probably 8 years and never used and I can’t find it anywhere.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck
Edit: I’m going to go buy one and I know I will remember where it is when I get home.
It’s a 3.5mm extension cable. To go from the drum kit to the audio interface.
You rationalised it in the last house move
I have a draw of very tangled cables collected over the years. I’m sure I have one of everything by now but digging through there is not fun.
I just dropped all of mine off for recycling, so I can’t help, sorry.
Hehe i know this pain.
With you fam.
Can’t have mine though because I can’t find mine either.
I can literally see it in my minds eye in the spot I left it last time and it’s not there :(
Yesterday on the way home I saw the fire brigade breaking out somebody stuck in one of the old cast iron toilets. Hope you all have a better day than that unfortunate person 😸
When I was little I got my hand stuck in a trolley. All I heard was a staff member say “I’ll get the butcher”. My dad was a butcher. I knew what they did. I cried. The butcher brought out a tub of fat.
tub of fat
to feed you and fatten you up?
I did wonder what they were gonna do with it.
Oooh I wanna know the whole story. I wonder how long they were there before they realised they needed proper help. Oh that poor person!
Hooray made it down to the beach.
Not so hooray fucking weeds.
Is good to be down here though.
Resident magpie remembers me so appeased it w/ cheee. Really makes you wonder just how much memory they have. Haven’t been here for months and the thing was right at my feet without a second thought.
Glad you made it down there today!! Love that you got a birb greeting. Clever little tackers!
Beach. 😊
I think I’m going to bail on that 1st birthday this weekend. The only people I know at this birthday are the parents and they’re going to be busy socialising with everyone, and I’ll probably feel awkward in this setting being childless. I’ll just message the day before that I’m sick and don’t want to spread germs. Does this make me a bad friend? I’ll plan a catch up with this friend in a few weeks and still give a present then.
Not a bad person. I’ve skipped plenty of kids parties for similar reasons. Was fine.
It’s ok. 😊
Nooooo, fav banh mi place nearby has had a ~glow up and is now offering heaps more fancy things, looks like it’s changed ownership. Unfortunately means it’s no longer reasonable to nip there on a lunch break, boo.
… though I do need to try the Salted Vietnamese Coffee…!
Is there still boxes of tissues on the tables?
My fav local banh mi place is still slinging loaded rolls for $7.50 and is never that busy, I hope it never gets a glow up. The salted coffee sounds great tho.
I kind of hope Hungs Bakery doesn’t sell out and go up market because the tofu banh mi is absolutely legit especially for that price and speed. But I’m guessing so long as those commission housing towers are the, Victoria Street won’t gentrify like the rest of Richmond
Already so cold, it’s going to be a cold night.
Going to need my hot wattle bot again.
I could do with a wattle bot 🌳 hot or otherwise!
I’ve been living in my oodie all day today. Tomorrow I will Be Productive ™
My frozen fingers can’t type.
I’m hoping it’ll be somewhat warmer tomorrow too.
Fireplace is working overtime in anticipation
Hot water bottle doing it for me, the ambient air in here is cold.
Took the Minipeelers to Highpoint today and had a fun time topping up our supply of trackpants, T-shirts and other things that were not so practical lol. Some Lush products were purchased and bathing indulged in once we got home. The house smells a treat!
I decided to check the status of my tax return and my voluntary super contribution has been reset to $0!!! Wtf! However, it’s still being processed (“Balancing accounts”) and I don’t want to slow anything down so I think I’ll just wait until it’s been finalised and maybe it’ll be added back in by then. I’ll be a very unhappy camper if I have to amend the lodgement and delay getting my money back…
I’m paying the ato this year :(
I was going to be in that position due to an improperly taxed second job and a taxable cash scholarship, but dumped a load into super to get around it. I really need that tax return and not a tax bill, so it’d be nice to get that processed properly…
Me too. They usually hit me up for about $4000 :-(
Are you sure your fund has processed your NOI yet?
Yeah, I got the letter confirming the NOI and saw the deposit in my super balance minus 15% tax several days before I lodged my tax return. I didn’t enter a value for TFN under my super contributions (just the fund name, fund ABN and amount contributed) because I couldn’t find a TFN for the super fund (I assume that’s for SMSFs or something), so not sure if that was an issue.
But, my ATO account has been a bit weird, random errors when logging in (not a scam) and there’s a new “payments” prompt at the top of my home page even though there should be nothing outstanding
Edit: I’m a goose, the “debit” account in the payment prompt would be the amount I owe if I didn’t have deductions. Sooo I have no idea why it isn’t through yet. I’ll wait and see…
I’ve been so successful in weatherstripping around the sliding door the dog door panel is inserted into that now the air pressure is blowing the dog flap open and letting in even more cold air than was coming through the gaps.
This be me tomorrow night
I’m with you. Big 16th is tomorrow night and I might disappear into the hedgerow with a beverage haha.
Don’t let your parents catch you sneaking a drink.
Nah just joking. Happy Birthday Miss God. 🎂
Thanks. It could get hectic.
Good morning. 😘
Today we are going to the local community museum, pictures will follow.
Rain, so much rain here over next 36 hours.
Ok, I despise Amazon, but sometimes you can’t find something anywhere else. I now accidentally have 30 days of their TV thing. What should I check out?
Check out that it doesn’t automatically renew after the 30 days are up.
Oh I will!
You can just cancel it now, you’ll still get your 30 days free but won’t have to worry about forgetting and having it auto renew. Just ignore all the warnings about what you miss by not having a subscription, they just put them there to make people reconsider cancelling. You are just cancelling the auto-renew of the subscription not the membership itself.
Thanks, looks like I’m getting the bullshit trial of single episodes, so it can get right in the bin
I think the expanse might be there if you like space shows
Invincible
The Boys
Reacher (S2 is kind of a dog, but still worth watching).
The first two suggestions are violent and I mean VIOLENT
@MeanElevator @Catfish seconding The Boys, and I don’t even like violent or superhero. It’s very clever, but quite awful, and very watchable if you can get past the ultraviolence.
That show is so disturbing and excellent.
Compare violent to opening sequence S1 American Gods?? Violence is fine by me if it has purpose and plot. That Bone Tomahawk bit was a shock, but made sense.
I’m pretty sure the first scene of the Boys someone gets vaporised except for their hands.
It’s gory as, but somehow with a purpose.
I don’t even remember any violence at the start of American Gods. I just remember absolute boredom. I didn’t even finish the first episode the first time I watched it, and then slogged through a few episodes after being assured it would get really good and be worthwhile. Spoiler: it wasn’t. I didn’t enjoy any of it in the slightest.
There was non book set up scene for the undocumented Scandinavian first North Americans.
Thirding The Boys. Yes it’s blood soaked, but in a comedic style. It’s very cleverly written and is a parody and warning of current American politics.
I’ll Fourth it. I really enjoyed it (although I’ve only seen the first two seasons, as I only use streaming services occassionally)
Nine Perfect Strangers.
I think Sneaky Pete is on Amazon, I was ambivilent about whether I wanted to watch it at all and ended up really enjoying it.
The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension
First sing and play since I dropped suboxone. Felt like my head was going to explode from endorphins.
Baby steps.
This is wonderful. 😊
I am so sick of being interrupted when I’m talking. However, I’ve finally started to grow a backbone and call people on when they do it.
