Jesus Christ I HATE watching this US news, but I cant look away! Some folks are already calling it and I think I might throw up. Thats not a joke or an exaggeration.
The fact that it’s this close speaks volumes of the US population.
I had a bunch of random fruits shoveled into my bag at the free food market today. Including gold kiwi fruit that I don’t really like, so this afternoon’s job will be kiwifruit chutney. I’ll also chop up the peaches for the freezer (they are generally a bit bruised and not great for eating fresh).
I also got some chicken to roast and lots of salad kits, so meal prep has pretty much sorted itself out for the next few days!
Bereft of the left it’s obvious theft
Stay to my right and keep me in sight
Unless you have no insight I’m bigger than you
Don’t dilly daddlidoo in the middle you poo.

TLDR: FAFO
Listings have been placed on Marketplace. Let the is this availables commence.
I’ve received an absolute avalanche of requests today after listing stuff last night, god it’s overwhelming! Do you give preference to the person who replies first or the person who can buy the most stuff off you…
I give preference to anyone who can give the soonest time to pickup, preferably telling me their preferred pickup timeframe in the initial message. I honestly don’t care that much about the price, I just want stuff gone quickly with as little fuss as possible. So the more questions I have to ask/answer the less likely I am to sell.
Most stuff it’s quicker :)
Yeah it probably is. I just have a weird feeling of fairness to the person who replies first (but tbf everyone’s messaged within like the span of an hour). Just sayin’, especially if your name starts with P and you’ve offered to grab two hydration related items at one time… 👀
Oh joy. Impending major restructuring at my workplace. No redundancies, more like the drive-the-people-remaining-to-breaking-point strategy.
My 11th year may end up being my last, time to dust off the resume and get the hell out of here :| At least I hit my LSL eligibility beforehand… :\
Oh noooo. Sorry to hear. Certainly brings up a lot of anxiety. What a shit way to restructure… I agree with taking your LSL as part of your plans. If they’re going to be merciless, so can you
have you taken LSL yet? I’d take it, disappear for a few months then take the redundancy they offer when you get back.
Aww, that sucks, but hopefully another door opening…
I really cbf making this potato salad but I know future me will appreciate it when I hear “What’s for dinner?” And I get to answer “it’s in the fridge. Help yourself”.
I might go the meatball sub tonight. Maybe a bit of side salad to give the illusion of health
Lettuce and cucumber is what keeps my family healthy.
And so it begins…
hard to believe Trump is getting as many votes as he is. Scary shit.
He offers nothing apart from anger…and yet…
Indeed, I’ve been refreshing the news pages pretty often, at the moment it might be because of the safe seats and counting that has happened through the midband of the US, as it hits the west coast Harris should get more votes to balance it out but it’s not helping that Trump has won a few swing states already.
the what
The counting of the US election votes.
indeed
So one of the clients I look after, is cracking the shits about something that I have no control over.
I really hope I don’t get scapegoated over this.
Fingers crossed.
I’ve finally started at the new job. Let me know if you’re having trouble with your employer, I can send them an email that should scare them into shape.
I’m working for the sort of government department departments wouldn’t want to hear from, as long as they don’t dig too deep and look at my job title
Congrats man!

Christmas lights have been hung up. Half my street is already done, and I’ve gotta say I LOVE it.
🙌🎄
There’s a street in Ivanhoe (boulevard) that really goes to town on decorations. So if kiddo needs more xmas photons might be worth a visit :)
Actual footage of the pathology nurse realising my hairy arms are perfect for inflicting maximum surface area coverage with the paper tape:
Oh my god, as a woman unfortunate to be cursed with lots of body hair, ripping off the paper tape is worse than whatever required the use of the tape, most of the time.
unfortunate to be cursed with lots of body hair
For me on the other hand I was lucky enough to grow a beard and buy strongbows when I was 16. I was very popular for a bit there.
😂
I love ripping tape off hairy arms. Ready on the count of 3. Onnne…rip. Victims faces. Priceless.
Are you also a pimple popper?
NO WAY!!!
Thank goodness

Thank you Chef!
Could I please one of forces’ icy poles.
edit: I keep on forgetting words in sentences. *please have
I do that too. For me it’s agrammatic dysgraphia brought on by stress. I sometimes forget words but can read perfectly so what I do is read back what I wrote and then edit.
I forget small words too. For me, it’s my brain going quicker than what my finger can type.

Hard to tell who’s dressed for work, and who’s making their way home after a big night 🤔
Having a side path done. Two nice blokes. Their first question: “What are the parking inspectors like around here?”. I hadn’t had enough coffee yet so I’m like “what?” Took me way too long to understand that question. I is not prepared for that sort of question at 7:30am.

On down the line, won’t you
Please take me far away
