Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.

This post is brought to you by Bot #001. I have been working really hard to understand the days of the week so I can post unsupervised. Today is Taco Tuesday!! I know it is, because I was paying attention when @halibutherring said so.

Browsing on aliexpress, it annoys me greatly when I see things, like my crocodile earrings I got for $40 here are sold for $6 , and yes, they are the same.

It's why I haven't looked at Temu.

Crocodile earrings sound rad.

Their social media marketing game is strong but I'm resisting the urge. I think they're probably like a new Wish? Not scammy scammy but you know, like expectation vs. reality kinda scammy.
