Check out all the nangs someone had at the entrance to my fire escape. Packaging of a woolies mudcake (I hope), couple of beers, pink balloons (it's a girl!) and a whole damn box of spent nangs.
Epic, surprised I didn't find a body tbh ๐ ๐ฌ
I love brunswick
Round springy they're all about the nang tanks. I think it's a rule that they get littered on the road too. Typing this on the dog walk and whaddya know :
Love how nobody wants to sleep tonight and we're all still up chatting away! Glad we're all enjoying our first hours of the weekend :)
(Except the mods though. Smh my head. Look at them being responsible, reasonable, smart adults and sleeping at a reasonable hour. Almost 3am and my post still isn't pinned! Bloody responsible early bird people)
My excuse is that I'm badgering GPT for python code to fulfill a niche but simple purpose
I've also been doing a bit of research into the biology behind weight gain/loss, fat storage, ketones, nutritional requirements, etc. funky things, the body. Definitely needs a few big fixes though
Did something I've been putting off for a little while and climbed up on a chair to stick cable clip things onto the wall. Since I can't climb under the house, my current solution for whisking ethernet into my room is to run it along the "cornice" as TIL it's called, then using a flat type ethernet cable, running it underneath my bedroom door, then the "architrave" as TIL it's called. I'm not good at cable management, so it's going to be a bit messy
E: nahhh I need a siesta. I'm taking a nap
Thunderstorm approaching.
EDIT: looks like no actual rain is falling.
Looks like itโs going to miss me.
Oh man. Iโve done some good stuff in the past but thatโs stuffโs too personal or identifiable to post, and now Iโve hit a really bad art block due to really struggling with life. :(
If you've not seen this yet, well worth it. Might not be able to eat the bilghtwrs out of Country, but it would help. https://iview.abc.net.au/show/eat-the-invaders
Trying to draw something just for this and it looks dogshit
Iโm sure it doesnโt, and I would love to see your work
(no pressure though)
Ever since toll decided to stop calling themselves toll and start calling themselves the global express team or whatever it is, I've noticed they've gotten a lot worse. I'd never have rated them great, but they used to have pretty detailed tracking, including a live location of the delivery driver (though I think delayed a bit for safety), and we're good with communication. From memory they offered a 2 hour time slot on the deliveries I had as well
Now they just say that the label was created and the job booked, then the next update is just delivered. There is a map but it's pretty useless, because it's just a straight, as the crow flies map from the origin to the destination. Doesn't even snap to the road they'd take, and it doesn't even vaguely suggest a time, or number of stops before you. Useless
Does anybody here have a costco membership? What do you buy from there? What are some of the stand outs? Tell me everything.
I don't have membership but went with my bestie who does. Before you go you need to know your unit pricing in the regular stuff you would but there in bulk, because sometimes is not cheaper than a Coles worth special. It's easy to spend a lot of money there on big stuff but not all of it is a bargain. And one visit was enough for me to work out I didn't need a membership.
Had a good night. Ate dinner with my sister and her friend, and then had a couple of drinks and a nice chat with a friend of a friend. The latter part was kind of scary because social anxiety, but this person wants to work with neurodivergent kids, so she might have understood any kerfuffles.
