cold 🥶
0.8 outside. 11.4 inside so far, the heater will need to work hard this morning.
i think it was 3 outside, but it was the coolest its been inside for a long time.
0.4 here. Brrrrrrr
Mmm don’t wanna get up. But must close all three rings
I mean, I know what you mean cause I also have the rings to close, but if your not in the ecosystem this is gonna sound sus as heck!
So I reported a profile on Facebook because it was using my name and my profile picture (and different personal details ripped from someone with my name but a higher public profile). I just got an email to say it’s been reviewed and doesn’t go against their guidelines.
The profile picture is literally me. From my old website. And it’s my name. But that’s not an issue?! WTAF?! Can I do anything about this?
send that profile a virus
Reported it as fake imperaonation ?
Yep. Apparently that’s not enough!
Get everyone you know to do the same. Numbers game
Life By You has been cancelled :(
I was looking forward to playing it. And it’s weird because I’ve seen YouTube people play it, and it looks fun, but the public release has been cancelled.
For the welfare of my loved ones and the general public I have bought a big bottle of lacteeze 😬💨
你好吗? 今天早上太冷了啊!
wrote that bad boy all by myself(in pinyin anyway). I’m trying to focus on thinking phrases. Things I can think in chinese instead of english to better commit them to memory. So mostly just complaining about the weather.

One of the (many) advantages of moving here is I don’t have to worry about getting up at arse o’clock to open the gates for any deliveries - in this case Coles online.
In other news, my pattern of opposite sleep patterns to the DT continues - I had a restless night and weird dreams while y’all seem to have slept well and peacefully. shrug emojiI thought I was the outlier with sleep patterns! I tend to have weird dreams all the time anyway. Woo! Free movies!
Absolutely wild night of dreams and trips to the loo (uh oh, last time that happened was hit by el rones a day or so after).
None of them made any sense and moved so fast. Get back from the loo, head hits pillow and bam, jump straight back into a very strange dreamworld.
And hyper sensitive hearing… Road noise dead of night was super deafening. In the shower this morning the white noise from the water led me to hallucinate that was I listening to carnival music ever so slightly in the background. I mean it was catchy, but I would’ve preferred a different genre.
I hope I’m not going mad yikes.
Lowkey though hope that happens again tonight (except the loo part)… Free trip!
I had an uncomfortable dream last night. I don’t really remember what it was, just that it made me uncomfortable and creeped out and I felt weird when I woke up. I think @bacon@aussie.zone was lying to us about having a good sleep
it wasn’t meeeeeee
Day 2 of bring me my food, peasants
I wish.
You could always order the fluffettes around. They would probably laugh at you though.
They are no use at all, can’t even make a cup of coffee.
Tho they are excellent mouse catchers. 😀
Yesterday I started watching YouTube on my phone then I thought why not watch it on my tablet. Then today I thought why not through the TV you fucking dimwit. Seriously, I turned the TV down, set up my tablet on the foot stool to watch while laying down with the dog and no one said anything to me.
I hate YouTube on TVs, and really smart TVs in general. It’s always so laggy, and I haven’t quite worked out how to sideload apps onto them so have been stuck with 50 ads so I just don’t watch them.
Plus I feel like YouTube videos are almost always made to be watched on a computer at biggest, so blowing them up to a 55" screen never looks right to me, and a lot of videos aren’t in 4k.
There’s also a creator I watch who doesn’t have stabilisation on his camera and I can’t watch him on anything bigger than a phone screen or I get motion sick (even though I don’t normally get motion sick)
Oh I just watch Freakin’ Reviews on there. He only road tests gadgets but its still good camera work.
I hate YouTube on TVs, and really smart TVs in general
Bro! I HATE smart TVs, and youtube is the bane of my existence! I can do an hour or 2 on how shit the whole thing is EASY.
Alrighty. Back home all snuggled in bed with Gibson. Water is back on. Nap time 😴
Edit: apparently I forgot it’s treat time
I want a cat so bad. They’re like portable bed heaters. They’d probably love my electric blanket, too…
Does anyone have reccos for a decent pair of men’s shoes that will last a while? I’ve had my pair of newbalances for a year and a half and the soles are falling apart and I don’t even walk that much. I had a pair of Nike airs for about 3 years until they got irreversibly shrunk in the washer (+ grew out of them), but I’m not looking to go that flashy.
Budget’s around $300 max, but I’m concerned with durability more so than anything else.
(It’s not the 1940s so I don’t care about wearing women’s or unisex shoes either, as long as they come in larger sizes and preferably don’t have sparkles)
I have a pair of asics I like, but I’m a chick. I did go to Athletes Foot (or whatever it’s called) where they had me walk on a scanner thingy to work out the best shoe for the way I walk. I think I spent $250 iirc, and they have lasted me for about 4 years now.
If anything, I’d recommend going to where they have that foot scanner thing, because yeah, my runners are a pair of beasts. Inclement weather, wear and tear, and they still look brand new when I clean them lol
Oh actually I remember why I got NBs now. I went into the athletes foot and they told me to go to footlocker because they didn’t carry shoes wide enough for my feet and newbalances were the best they could recommend. I’ll try again though, maybe asics have released a wide model. Thanks for the recco!
Redback or blundstone work boots.
Aku hiking boots. I’m literally still wearing a pair I bought i n 2009. And I wear them all the fucking time
Are they like a big boot, or a shoe (runners)? I have a pair of work boots I got from Kmart a few years ago that are still going well, but I don’t wear them much these days. I’m looking for more of an all purposes type shoe
Aku hiking boots
Gee they look nice. Might have to save up for a pair.
I find most of the sports brands are of a similar mid quality. That is, less durable than they used to be. I remember runners lasting way longer than they currently do. I usually only buy when on sale, that way I feel I’m not getting ripped off for something that won’t last. DFO outlets or sites like Catch often have significant discounts. Spending $300 one off or $100 three times over will work out the same I guess.
Try Hoka. I’ve had their Bondi work shoes for over a year now. Wide fitting, and I’m harsh as fuck on them and don’t look after them at all but they’re still good. Other work shoes have barely lasted 6 months.
Ooooh they look good. Thanks for the recco!
Apparently even Bunnings sell them - if that’s not a good sign, I don’t know what is…
Edit: apparently I misread “running warehouse”. Bunnings do not sell them, I’m just an idiot
Not an idiot, just conditioned that all warehouses are green and have big hammers!
I mean, lowest prices are just the beginning. Maybe shoes are the end
UBank just sent me an email. Apparently they’re changing their savings rates. If you don’t deposit at least $500 per month into any of your accounts, you get 0% interest on your savings.
I originally joined them because it was a 5% interest rate if you deposited at least $200 per month into any account, and was displeased when they upped that to $500. But now they’re lowering their regular interest rate to 0%…
Look at Macquarie. They have 4 point something interest on all accounts (including transaction account) with no strings. You can have as many accounts as you like and can do everything with all the accounts - the only difference between transaction and savings account is whether it has a debit card, there is no requirement to move money to a transaction account so you can spend it like some banks have. It is an online only bank so you can’t deposit cash, if you need to do that you have to put it into another bank and transfer.
Pangea Maps look cool but bloody hell they are outrageously expensive.
