Trying to do the weekly shop for Coles online and it is just shitting the bed. It's both super slow and keeps locking us out or telling us item can't be added or just not showing us the list. I am going to scream. Anyone else having issues?
Edit: Yeah... still having issues, I'm over it. I wanted to add more shit but I'm tired, I want to go to bed.
I've seen some recent posts here about deleting Reddit accounts. If you do decide to, please consider archiving your user page and any posts you particularly enjoyed onto the Wayback Machine. I've deleted many accounts in my time, and trust me, you'll likely feel nostalgic one day and want to go reminiscing. Or, you'll want to link to that one really well-thought-out argument you made one time in a future conversation. A lot easier to do when there's an easily accessible archive you can just access whenever you want.
I accidentally deleted my tumblr a few years ago, I had it for almost ten years but instead of deleting a sideblog I accidentally deleted the whole thing. I found out that some of my posts, or my page were saved to the Wayback Machine, either by myself or someone else I don't know. But there was a post that I had reblogged that was about like if doing x thing resonates with you it's something a lot of adhd people do.
And I reblogged it and put in the tags about how I do it but I don't have ADHD. Welp, almost ten years later since that post, and yes, young landsharkkidd, you do indeed have the adhd.
In other news, checked the rest of the saved posts and none of them were from the DT. So I screenshotted everything I need to last night. \0/
Please don't put me back on cleanup duty, boss...

I’m sure this is purely anecdotal, but has anyone else observed higher rates of cars backing into parking spots? I feel like it didn’t used to be a thing, and now I see it like twice a day.
