Happy Laneway day everyone! Time for one too many beers and eating far too much food. And there may be music on in the background.
Ah, I was wondering what that noise was.
Anyone got good leads on places to acquire non-white patterned sheer curtains? Doesn’t need to be skulls & bats, but not bloody granny florals would be grand.
Spotlight has pinstripes, plains and semi-geometrics as well as the granny florals. I would imagine most manufacturers would have at least some designs that aren’t floral.
You’re getting different search results than I. Looked there first specifically because of the sale. Bugger the internet, will go in person.
I’m getting slaughtered at gin rummy today. Please send good luck wishes.
🍀🤞🏼
I am crawling back 🙂
I drinking piña coladas
While watching exposés
Of speedrunning cheaters
Breaking rules of the games
And it’s narrated by an Aussie
But from Queensland they are
But they’re actually quite funny
So I’ll forgive that faux pasCheers little cherubs ❤️🍺

Nice drop of rain. The garden needs it.
Severance spoilers:
May I say a question?spoiler
You shouldn’t let them have a funeral. It makes them feel like people.

Who the fuck is Ms Wong

I dunno but when I die I will not rest peacefully unless I know someone organises a watermelon likeness of me at the wake

Would a hollow watermelon head filled with alcoholic punch do? That way we wouldn’t have to cut into it.

God, she was so petty! “Anonymous” complaints about paperclips and big words, my arse. She sounds like some bitchy aunties I’ve worked with eons ago.
I was so glad to see Helly R back but so sad to see her trying to grapple with iMark’s coldness towards her. What a difference from Helena when she heard about Ms Casey being his outie’s seemingly dead wife - she instantly suggested they find out what happened as a team, rather than cast doubt.
Also, Ricken is so pathetic.

to be fair there’s nothing worse then a back-to-front paperclip tho… 😂
I just read the top spoiler and now I have to watch.
I’m feeling for the people who went Laneway, they would be getting soaked right now.
I got fucking soaked. We ended up leaving before the headliner. Got ponchos but they didn’t do much.
Too much pushing and shoving and mud, and friend got very overstimulated.
I’m so sorry to hear that :(
Heading back to melbs today.
Haven’t been back since xmas. Gonna be a shock going through the CBD. Always blows my mind down here you only see a few people daily (usually on the foreshore / beach / shops) but people go out of their way to interact. Had more convos with randos down here in the last month than I have in the last 2 years in melbs.
I say bring back the rando convo.
No thanks. I always get stuck with the itchy weirdo rando.
Yup same. For whatever reason the tweakers think I have a “friendly face” 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ I hate that shit so much.
I had the same problem. Actually when I hit late 40s lots less random weird people spoke to me compared to when I was younger. Using being an invisible middle aged woman to my benefit lol.
I’m closing in on 40 and it’s still happening -_-
7 more years from April until I’m 40. I can’t wait!!!
Hell yeah Swedish Chef meme! I fkn love The Muppet Show!
This is our hidden superpower. Shhhhh, don’t tell anyone.
I can’t find the article I’m looking for, but I love the story of the older Aussie woman artist who decided to make a social commentary about how women of this age are frequently invisible by illegally putting up great big posters of her artwork in public places (in Ballarat and Bendigo I think). She would turn up in a hi vis vest and just put up her posters on public infrastructure without a permit and nobody ever stopped her or asked any questions. She got away with it for ages as I recall.
Love this!
Yeah, it’s always the oldies, which I don’t mind or the desperates.
I always get found by people with dementia. I must look like I have the answers for them. Either that or I’ve worked too long with oldies and can spot it a mile away.
Ok so still waiting on Toshiba, software company called and I’m calling back.
And I’ve emailed the 3rd place to get an answer.
The 3rd place is the one I really want, but I don’t think I’m getting it.
getting the f outta dodge should be the top priority. And whatever way that takes without having to whore yourself out or sell bags sounds a shit load better than when you are now tbh.
10000000%
I’m so thankful for the cooler conditions for the next week. I’ve got shit to do and it helps immensely.
Wrong comment lol
But I’m also happy for the cold weather!
Our daughter, our only child, cherished baby girl is out on a date. Don’t worry, she’s keeping us up to date. Plus I have life 360. I know exactly where she is.🥺
aww 🥹
If she (you) need assistance, let us know
Happy to rock up with islander uncles when needed.
Thanks. This kid screams nerd (I’ve seen pix) drives a suburu, is into D n D and looks after old people. OMG. I can easily scare him with a baseball bat.
Good to know.
In any case, if you need a bunch of 100kg+ gospel singing bros to show up let us know.
Otherwise, we can protect him too.
I’m sorry but isn’t it a bit creepy that you location-track your child like this? I’m glad that I grew up before that was a thing my parents could do.
Weird and gross to do to a partner (like my ex did to me, basically forced me to download life360 and then would still accuse me of cheating 🤦🏼♀️), not so weird to do with one’s child, especially if they are underage.
There’s a lot of nasty rhetoric going around from boys and men regarding women and girls, it’s safer knowing where their kid is and with whom.
I dunno, I think we as a society have been restricting the rights of teenagers more and more. I’ve helped a lot of young adults access resources to escape from less than stellar parents unfortunately.
My household uses life 360, and it’s come in handy. If one of us need to be picked up, we don’t have to yell on the phone trying to give out directions. It’s also good for the female safety part.
No one cares what you think or how you grew up.
You know nothing about this person and their family and yet you’re judging them based on a single comment.
Your arrogance is almost impressive if it weren’t so obnoxious.
Okay…I don’t think you’re doing a good job of not being arrogant on the internet either though…
Nope because she put it on my phone in the first place.
Still no joy convincing the mrs on the camper trailer/poptop/whatever you want to call it. Found a couple worth checking out. But the flipside is I found tons of places I want to go assuming we get one.
On this blessed day behold a picture of uranus
Every time I see uranus my spirit is lifted
It’s so romantic 😍
Today I am going to an outdoor event and apparently there will be rain (where?!) so I bought some heavy duty ponchos that will not fit in my bag. Alas. I will give them to their recipients upon arrival, but hopefully it’s a great day.
Looks like the rain is currently waaaaay east, so hopefully it will be okay where you are!
