Semi NSFW insect nudity
Went out to check my downpipe fix and I’m not the only one checking pipes.
A little Afternoon Delight.

TV and Movie Chat.
Woman of the Hour with and by Anna Kendrick.
I think this movie could have benefited from another 20 minutes. The problem is that suspense over the whole movie was not built up tho individual scenes were good.
There are two ways to show a bad guy. One is to show him doing his evil acts. The other is to show how seriously the good people are chasing him.
There has to be much more screen time of the chasing by good guys than of the bad guy doing evil stuff otherwise we just don’t take in the story of the good guys adequately.
So I came away from watching that movie not as affected by the stories of the victims and the victim’s families struggle for answers and justice as I should have been.
A good example of the right balance is the movie Zodiac. A few scenes of evil, 90% is the chase.
3 hobbits.
I rewatched the pilot of MAS*H. It cannot be over stated how popular and influential this series was . I have watched the whole 220 episodes , some more than others. It was show I would watch after high school.
And I couldn’t watch it this time. Maybe I’m tired of war and sarcasm.
But I did think of the show and pondered how American sitcoms are different to Brit culture sitcoms.
I think Americans like to have many episodes a year in their shows because they like to get to know the characters really well. Brit sitcom is 6 episodes a year and more about a situation and challenge.
I think it can all be explained by The Office and how the show differs in UK and US versions.
Unpopular opinion. All social media should be banned. I’m sorry but it’s just too toxic.
Imagine how wholesome society would be if everything wasn’t for a feed.
it should be regulated
I’m not sure you can without government overreach and inevitably trampling on someone’s rights.
This is quite a take. Regulation could be government overreach, but banning social media outright is not?
As a benevolent lord and commander of the universe I am not part of the government and I will enact the ban.
Yeah who’s doing the banning? The government? Who can also… Regulate…
I think they’d regulate. Hard to argue that regulation is more overreaching than banning lol
That would deprive us of your comments though
I think we straddle the edge of social media here. I think the layer of anonymity here means we’re not quite social media. This feels more like the old usenet newsgroups of the 90’s to me. I know it’s pretty much the Reddit 2009 experience, but that also felt like Usenet.
the old Usenet newsgroups of the ’90s*
True. I’ll make an exception for aussie.zone.
Walking through the park today and went under trees that just had bark chips and dirt underneath. Looked a bit meh. I was reminded of a pic of some young adult saying how people tell him to go outside instead of being of the computer all day. He showed outside, a very dull dingy grey dirty old eastern bloc dormitory city. So his SIM city would be better, just like on the new Brave New World series, people could be fed a nice make believe place.
But surely it would be best if he went outside and did something to improve his home rather than escape reality?
ACH AURELIE!
DER DEUTSCHEN FLIRTEN SEHR SUBTIL!!
Das liegt an ihrem großartigen Sinn für Humor
Sie ist Französin, sie würde es nicht verstehen lol
Ich habe Hunger.
Wer hat mein Haferbrei gegessen?
8.00 am and I’m already in trouble. Ted bit my bum because he hadn’t gotten his kangaroo for breakfast yet.
Yesterday sucked,I had a headache after I took a nap and it basically lasted the whole day, I could barely concentrate on anything.
Most I achieved was having the cricket one for most of the evening, couldn’t really use my phone much or anything else during that time.
Wasted Sunday :(
gentle hugs
sometimes we just a day off , it’s never wasted 😘
Thanks Seagoon, feeling a bit off and exhausted today and a bit spacey.
Trying to take it easy at work and not overdo things.
So Elder refused to go to school this morning. Yes we are back to this again. Mondayitis. But Miniest refused to go because her brother isn’t. I ended up having to leave or I’d be late for work.😥😬😫And now I’m I T C H Y. The rash (or whatever the hell it is) had actually gone down a bit overnight and didn’t look so livid this morning. Off to work so I can stress less🫤
My tactic is to make it as boring as possible if they stay home. Youngest stayed home today, and he nearly went insane without people to stimulate him. He’s going to school tomorrow. 😁
Thanks guys for your answers about NZ. I’m looking at Christchurch, Lake Tekepo, Arrow Town, Queenstown or Dunedin.
Oh damn… turns out while I knew I was near one bad spot, I’m actually right between two. On a busy highway per se. No wonder I’ve been getting a lot of grief.
Even with how much I keep to myself and mind my own it was unavoidable.
Today felt like it went past quick. Either that or I’m getting used to work lol
I always have my lunch break at 4pm so I can just leave.
Meow
My husband does that. Lunch at 1:30. Knock off at 2.
I don’t understand stopping work, just to go back to work. Let’s smash it all out in one go when see ya later.
The good old backing ending go out to lunch and never come back.
Can easily let you get home 30-40 mins earlier depending on how long your lunch break is.
I actually get to sit down on the train and am not squashed against everyone.
The writing competition blew up over the weekend. Ended up with 83 entries with maybe some more coming in today. I am super proud of the effort.
I had a dream I could see death. As in, I could see where people had died, no matter how long ago, as ugly growths and it was everywhere. And I could see upcoming deaths in people via grotesque disfiguring and mold. Rather disturbing.
sounds like an awesome idea for a movie
I have now come to realise that it takes about 4 years of early mornings to ruin my usual sleep schedule. No matter how late I sleep, how tired/exhausted I am or whether it’s a day off, unless I’m unusually unwell, I cannot sleep in the same way I used to.
This is an annoying revelation. Even napping, which I do very poorly, is worse now.
I need to find a way around this. I need more hours.
You have to find your natural sleep length. For most people it’s between 7 - 9 hrs. Food, alcohol, caffeine even water plays a big part in how well we sleep. Higher the stress level the shittier the sleep, the tired we are during the day.
Tinyest has started repeating words back to you. Shit is ADORABLE. Bathtime, GO!, Buh Bye and Ball are all big ones.
I saw Vampire Survivors has a local coop mode now. I’m going to try it out with my girlfriend soon, and it sounds like a good excuse to get addicted again and get a friend hooked too
I can’t figure out how this works. Possibly because I’m on a phone? Can see multiplayer in settings but nowhere to use it.
With a phone, apparently you’re meant to connect bluetooth controllers to the device to enable multiplayer I think.
Oh? Well Nevermind that I guess.
I haven’t booted it up to check. I noticed it had the local coop community tag and there’s an announcement on the product page about it
Castlevania dlc coming out on the 31st as well.
