I can touch my toes for the first time in my life. All the pilates is doing some good.
ffs, reddit is having tor issues again 🙄
Put on the train trip from Souther Cross to Tocumwal on for the kids:

The last leg from Shepperton to Tocumwal is usually freight only. I’d love to hop on at Donnybrook and take the train to Tocumwal.
Same with Mildura. That line is freight only as well. How many tourism dollars would a vline to Mildura rake in? I don’t know why it’s still closed to the public.
Agreed. Trains are such fun. 😊
Did that trip many years ago when it was still running. I did enjoy it.
Wow thanks for sharing this, I didn’t know one had been uploaded to Tocumwal!
If you’re rich, there’s a couple of heritage trains running up to Mildura this year. The one in June has already been booked out, but I believe there’s another in either August or October. But the tickets are really pricey.
My personal line I wish I could ride is the one from Horsham to Carpolac. I’ve done it by car, and it just looks like it would’ve been such a peaceful ride, even if the largest towns along it only had a couple hundred people
I’m going to check it out anyway. The boys would love it and Mildura is one of the few places it would be worth getting the train to rather than just driving
It looks like the one in August is actually going to Murrayville as well. https://www.slowrailjourneys.com.au/post/15-20-august-take-the-path-less-travelled-on-the-sunraysia-exploring-mildura-murrayville-the-mur
nasty nightmare about nazis 😧
I had a bad dream about people dying. Not so much a nightmare, more just a random, out of the blue, sad dream about someone dying 🫤
I had a dream that I bought a house which was perfect, except for the fact that it was in USA and the front yard was decorated in red, white and blue with multiple American flags. I was worrying the neighbours would be upset when I removed them. Then for some reason I was in a cemetery across the road from the house, which was very busy with multiple funerals and some sort of market/day of the dead festival event happening.
@RustyRaven @Baku sounds like a sign to me
A sign of what, that’s the question. Hopefully not that I am about to inadvertenly move to USA.
@RustyRaven the imminent death of the USA government I reckon
That’s probably the most realistic dream I’ve ever heard of tbh
@bacon@aussie.zone lunch box and snacks please when you’re ready. Just getting ready to head to work now

Yassss, thank you!!
Missed the interview due to migraine. They weren’t happy. Fucking sucks as it’s a 9 out of 10 for pain.
I mean if they’re reacting poorly to a genuine reason for cancelling, then maybe it’s for the best. Seems they’re showing you what it would be like to work there. Remember that you’re also interviewing them.
Oh man, that really sucks - of all days!! Please don’t beat yourself up though, as hard as it feels to think right now that there’s always other jobs, you only have one body. You did the right thing to look after yourself, who knows it could’ve been a worse outcome if you tried doing the interview while in great pain. I hope these guys understand and give you a chance or that something else comes up.
Thanks heaps I really appreciate it 🙂 I try not to subscribe to magical thinking but who knows, maybe it was for the best.
It was 1hr 25mins travel each direction.
🤞🤞🤞
Been so tired this week, went to bed at 9.30pm last night and I’m still so tired. I blame COVID from last week; not positive anymore but I must have a sleep debt or something.
Mickey woke me up by pouncing on my head and taking some of my hair with him. Love that asshole.
Sleep debt is so hard to fix… take care
It’s such a beautiful day. Really would like to go out but should rest my back, maybe do a little around the house.
Looks lovely from the office window.
Pity I can’t soak it up until lunchtime
It looks nice but it was really cold outside this morning, I came back in looking like a snowman
I love waking up with it being 10° in my room. That electric blanket is the wisest purchase choice I’ve probably ever made
I’d probably never get out of bed if I had an electric blanket.
It is so tempting to move into bed. But it rocks when I have the chance for a sleep in
Chat gpt 4o is a bit scary imho. We can’t trust video or voice any more due to deepfakes, now we have AI interacting with voice and video.
Edited to add- as someone who is quite lonely, I can see how talking to AI can help feel less alone…,
nah I’ve seen “her”. I’m not worried. They’ll just fall in love with each other and transcend leaving a ton of lonely folks behind who are forced to make human connections.

You’ve seen Bladerunner 2049?
lol yes. I’m not looking for an intimate relationship, just a friend. I have ASD, along with cfs etc. so friendships are really hard. Add in family estrangement, a partner who is out most of the time, it’s very isolating.
My phone stopped recording data from my watch. So I played around with the both of them and now it’s working. I did technology and I’m very proud of myself because I didn’t get angry or throw anything.
After years on pre-paid, I got a new phone on a plan yesterday. The initial setup went smoothly, settings and security all good , but I’ve spent the whole morning (and most of last night actually) having to re-login and setup most of my apps again. Thank dog for password managers, I would have been stuffed if I had to try and remember them all or rely on various scribbled post-it notes. What watch do you have?
Garmin venu. They had stopped syncing which is weird because I certainly didn’t touch anything.
My 245 music has done that a few times. Currently it’s forgotten that a button press on my headphones is supposed to pause the track…
I need to give mine a few minutes to find each other and catch-up once I open the app on the phone.
This is the usual for me too but somehow they unpaired.
So so tired. Zzzzz.
Insert caffeine here
404 Caffeine Not Found :(
Sorry I drunk it all
Anyone got a goat I can rent? These yard Triffids are getting out of hand.
If you find one let me know, the neighbour’s blackberry thicket is out of control again.
Do you have any vegetarian neighbours? Cost of Living pressures might mean they’d be interested in taking the problem off your hands so to speak.
Hilarious mental image. No, lots of it is lemon grass and sorrel (don’t let this shit self seed people!!!) but also some beladonna and other very untasty things from the wind.
Sorrel is edible, and very nice to eat. Look up French sorrel soup - its an unfashionable and ugly gem of a soup. The tangy lemony taste is unique imo. Marvellous with crusty bread. Otherwise, just pretend it’s spinach and cook/eat accordingly but with lots of cream and/or melty cheese.
Yeah I know. It’s a common feature in my ‘weed’ pie. There’s only so much I can eat., and this is one that gets ignored if I it put out the free food box
I really feel there needs to be an audit of all these folks with the kings awnings hanging off the roofracks, and ESPECIALLY the rooftop tent folks. How often are you camping where you NEED your tent with you at all times? I totally need some roofracks to get one myself!
It’s gotten to the point where it’s too cold to get out of bed, but it’s also too cold in bed so I just kinda push through and get up anyways
