Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
Wooo we’ve paid off 100th of the house.
Still wanna know why the interest on our fixed rate increased tho.
I’m waiting to get all my data from reddit and deleting my account. I’m super disillusioned with the melb subreddit in particular. Time to move on.
Sad really.
it’s really fallen a long way. so much akshually and a current affair style content.
Are there even moderators there anymore?
They removed some fairly obvious race-bait the other day, but they don’t seem to be doing much for the most part.
I haven’t been on Reddit at all since we moved here. Realised I was just going on for the DT but would get sucked into scrolling once in the app. Huge time waster.
Hello?
Is it me you’re looking for?
I can see it in your eyes…
Slept so terribly last night. Woke up multiple times, couldn’t get comfy. So strange! I went to sleep so comfy…
I noticed that yesterday’s Reddit daily thread closed with fewer than 100 comments for the first time
Haven’t looked at the DT there in a couple weeks. I feel sad for the lost souls who haven’t found their way here 💔
Yeah some are put off by the ui and the bugs. I think a bunch just lost interest in this format overall.

Smoke alarms are just so overly dramatic some times.

Ugh… Every time I use my favourite grill pan, even with every fan on in the flat and the door open!

Sleep was fab. Gotta drag myself up now though to start Operation Fridge Clean pulls on hazmat suit
I think I have figured out what my relo problem is.
It’s the consistency. I think because I might send a message one day and then I get a reply the next day or even the day after sometimes, I just want more.
It’s probably a bit much of me to expect that from someone if they’re busy and hardly on their phone, but even just a dot or an emoji or something that would take five seconds to send would keep me at bay. I’ve dealt with inconsistency in a relationship before and it turned out that that person didn’t have good intentions. I know rationally with this guy, he’s not an absolute prick and wouldn’t do that. I know that he does care. Unless I’m lying to myself
I think a simple message each day would just show that he cares and is willing to put in the effort.
Am I asking for too much?
No. It leaves you wondering. Seems like a potential, keep you hanging and wondering routine. Pretty easy to send an I’m thinking of you text.
Made taiyaki for dessert. It was so enjoyable
Assignment completed. About 3 hours to spare, plenty of time!
Meanwhile, I’ve only just sat down to begrudgingly start on the work that I have to get in before 9am Monday, which I’ve spent all of today doing procrastichores (in a house I have zero obligations to clean).
I suspect I’ll be up till 2-3am again but doing so means I can take Monday off, more or less.
I envy your ability to get things done ahead of time…!
Anxiety and/or ADHD by any chance?
Psychiatrist has all but diagnosed me with the latter. She finishes up tomorrow and will start me on meds. Idk if that’s the whole story but I’ve been like this my whole life so I guess I’ll try.
HEHEHE jumping on the Baldur’s Gate 3 craze, by borrowing my partner’s copy. Of course, I won’t be able to play until tomorrow night when they’re at work, but I’m excited. Last I played was like October of 2020 so it was EARLY days of the Early Access.
I can’t wait to play it co-op with my partner. I dumped so so many hours into Baldurs Gate 2, but we have too many games on the go atm.
Hope you have fun!
I feel that. I have a few games to finish too.
But… why not have another game, as a little treat.
Is a novated lease (which in my case includes insurance, fuel, and registration) really as good as companies make it sound, compared to just buying in cash?
Rarely. Especially if comparing it to paying up front and not borrowing. Many years ago there were tax benefits if you drove a lot which could make it cheaper, but mostly these days it just gives you a lower monthly payment than taking a loan directly, primarily because there is a “balloon payment” at the end instead of paying off the full amount.
There is also a lot of hassle involved in doing everything, as you have to go through the lease company. They are also taking out a loan in your name - I know someone who had problems getting a home loan, and discovered that the lease company had not been paying the loan payments which had impacted their credit.
Thank you for such a detailed response:)
