I just dreamed that I overslept, it is almost 8:30 the time of my zoom meeting, and I have to download the updated software.

Looks like some of my neighbours have started Christmas in July already. I just didn't know people took it so seriously - Christmas tree and all

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 7 points 1 year ago (4 children)

With carols? Once a year is bad enough. This idea that we're missing out because we don't have a white Christmas here is bullshit. Santa loves us no matter where we live.

Good bot, well done on learning the days of the week.

[–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 7 points 1 year ago

The days of the week bit is good - at the moment I actually have 7 weekly posts so that I can have the right day in the title, I'll now be able to go down to a single daily thread which will simplify things a bit. Now I just need to get the automatic pinning right and I'm set!

Damn. I crashed out after having a shower and it’s nearly 8 already!

Very full this evening with cheesy pasta. Sorry, no pics.

Waiting for the bathroom, having some tea and listening to a podcast. It’s been kind of nice making myself wind down earlier.

Has anyone ever purchased from Catch? If yes, thoughts?

[–] kudra@aus.social 5 points 1 year ago

@Goddess_Amaterasu @bot001 yes, but not directly, I ordered from eBay and then got the order value refunded as they didn't post anywhere on the auction that they were drop shipping. Hot tip 🔥: I do that every time someone does that from Amazon - I don't give Bezos money if I can help it, and anyone not being clear on eBay they are drop shipping from a large competitor seller are breaking the TOS and deserve to get penalised.

The wind was absolutely bonkers in Hobart last night. 100kph gusts. The streets are littered with overturned bins. Looks like a zombie apoc.

Deluxe Decadent Triple Choc Tim Tam's only have 8 biscuits in them and 1 biscuit = 1 serve!

Took kidcalhoon1 to her regular osteo tonight. Neck pain, rib pain, back pain.... Real hard to watch her wince on the table for most of the session. Scoliosis can go jump currently.... Swings and roundabouts I guess.

Thank you bot

Ok another post. The birds for cats video is allowing me a lot more typing and gaming time without the need to constantly twirl a pencil or move them gently to somewhere away from the screen and keyboard.

My new toilet spray somehow smells like hot cross buns and now I really want some fruit toast.
