Looks like Yarrabyte has gone missing in action again. I think they may have a secret life or maybe a second job or something. Or just slept in.
Cheers 🍻🍻🍻
🍾 🥂 cheers!!
Most of my managers and coworkers are away and I’ve been working all my days off & weekend. I am going to make some new corporate T-shirts with my own logo and see how long it takes people to notice.
Any suggestions? I’m in the water industry, so maybe “Wetwork”?

Aw dang it I’m too late to the party, I’d have suggested “Wet ‘n’ Mild”
if you’re feeling dangerous;:
Watersports.

Dampened spirits.
PuddlesPerfect, my company needs a Watersports division. Not for the customers though.
“Name of company”
Making you wet

Neighbours are playing “we are early birds and think 6am is a reasonable time to fire up power tools”. Dangerous game to play next to a woman who thinks midnight is an early bedtime and likes metal.
Especially since His Lordship is in KL right now so there is literally no stopping me
Mine are fixing up their house to lease / sell, and were using a bandsaw last Sunday after 10pm. I thought of taking revenge early next morning with a guitar and amp (I can’t play guitar), but restrained myself. Bloody rude!
Pretty sure the LittleOne has stolen my earrings. If somebody could make him confess his stash location?
Waterboarding works, they’ll confess to anything.
Might not go according to plan, he likes water

You might need to set up some covert surveillance and put out another set of earrings as bait.
I only have so many pearls🙀
I have a broken pair of earrings that were probably $2 from the chemist. I volunteer them as tribute.
stayed up way too late listening to audiobooks about the royal fam
I have thoughts
Dammit, America has infected my brain. I’ve started automatically saying “zee” instead of “zed” and it really pisses me off.
Idk if it’s the right way but I say Zed-bra lol
I say Zee sometimes, damn the USA lol
Zed-bra is correct 💯
I just want my long weekend Is that so much to ask?
I forgot it was a public holiday tomorrow. 💰💰💰
No. Akshully, today is really Friday even though it’s Thursday when written down. This may be a comforting thought.
Woke up to early pakidge on my day off, so i can set everything up and play around with it today.
My numpad arrived and it’s bigger than i expected. A different type of clicky to my keyboard but it feels good. It looks like a futuristic phone from the 80s.
I'm calling you from the future:

Calculator vintage 1985 vibes intensify.
That is so fucking cool!
As long as I buy them one bag at a time I can get free delivery from Bunnnings on things like bags of potting mix. Very tempting to make lots of little orders…
Soo, listening to the audio books and interviews about the brit royal fam
they have the sociopath genes in the family and unfortunately the circumstances means that kids born with that tendency are indulged, like edward 8 and andrew and they become appalling criminal adults
and then the behaviours become so bad that they can’t be ignored and public drama ensues
the other thing is that the royals are living in the past, thinking that they are somehow special and that others think they are special
they just don’t seem to understand the people that surround them are employees who have their own lives , they are employees, not serfs and not their friends
Diana is only a few weeks older than me , she really needed a good friend, someone older, but then she rejected all good advice on how to cope with her life 🤷♀️ she did not seems to get wise, just more cunning, not the great parent that she is deemed to be, good parents don’t include kids in their drama
security seems a bit extreme but then I suppose when your position in inherited, not elected, threats/violence is the only option for change
people forget that the royals and aristocracy collect taxes from their duchies, so people pay council taxes and a portion of that goes to the royals fir no reason other than they are born to it, it’s unacceptable, this is how they are so rich
bring on the republic, elections are soo good, it means change is easy and without drama
Got some diffs of opinion on this - not trolling - just giving my opinion for what it’s worth.
rant
“bring on the republic, elections are soo good, it means change is easy and without drama” - please tell that to Mr Trump
“Diana is only a few weeks older than me , she really needed a good friend, someone older, but then she rejected all good advice on how to cope with her life 🤷♀️ she did not seems to get wise, just more cunning, not the great parent that she is deemed to be, good parents don’t include kids in their drama” -
Imo she was far too young for the role, and was a victim of poor parenting herself. I agree that she made some VERY poor choices but imo she was fundamentally as thick as two short planks. An intelligent person would have run a mile from the whole Prince Charles thing. And a lot of girls did - including Camilla.
“they have the sociopath genes in the family and unfortunately the circumstances means that kids born with that tendency are indulged, like edward 8 and andrew and they become appalling criminal adults - and then the behaviours become so bad that they can’t be ignored and public drama ensues” -
I don’t actually believe in sociopath genes - imo sociopathic behaviour is more to do with parenting and modelling from caregivers. Both the examples you give were raised by nannies - as was King Charles - and those nannies were more or less abusive. Particularly in the case of Ed8 - he was a profoundly damaged human being - bordering on mental illness - and had been from childhood. There was also a large contingent of the aristocracy who all shared a similar remote parenting regime - nannies etc. so the royals were not particularly unique. They were just more visible. And there were a LOT of people who cheered them on in their bad behaviour for a lot of different motives.
I do consider that the British royals have a fundamental streak of plain ordinary stupidity - you can see this from the Stuarts onwards, that is exacerbated by mostly remote parenting and unrealistic expectations from various governments/the general public. Small wonder that so many decided to resign from being reasonable human beings.
I’m just glad they’ve largely lost all their political power - just figureheads now and that’s how it should be. An expensive luxury but one that quite a lot of people can’t do without it seems. And they’re good for tourism.
I just can’t bear the whole idea
spoiler
elections are so powerful the gop have worked for decades to subvert them
I think it’s nature *and * nurture
yes, I think Di was not very smart
people would go see the Tower and the Jewels even if there weren’t a royal fam
the bastards still collect taxes from duchies
Right. 2 interviews next week. On is a “if we like you no 3 stages bullshit” the other is 3 stages bullshit lol
Putting out roughly 20 applications a day. I reckon the one and done is a good chance and I actually want the job. The other would be a stop gap.
20 applications a day wow. I hope you land something good soon.
The new bone conduction headphones are nice. The old ones had touch controls so i had to layer them over my helmet or the strap would pause what I was listening to. Can’t beat physical buttons
I’m as happy with my $15 alixp pair as I am my $200 Shokz pair.
Do you know what they were called? I’m looking for over ear ones that work and sound okay.
These were the cheap ones: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007582608533.html
They weren’t as good as the $200 Shoks pair, but my shokz have broken a little and the company wont address it, so I prefer the cheap pair because if they break I’ll just get another. They’re good enough quality and for the price difference it’s a no brainer for me.
Wow, my mum was just talking about similar ones she got online and how she can hardly hear the wind. If you’ve used then outdoors, has that been the case for you too?
They’re okay, I wear them under a beanie which sorts most wind noise at the moment.
I just bought the same ones as SaneMartigan and they’ve been good. My other pair are Lenovo and have been fine aside from my use case of wearing them with a helmet.
Things are pretty good on Aliexpress, just don’t go for anything that looks too good to be true and check a couple of listings to get a sense of pricing
I’ve never bought a pair of Shokz and I’m not sure what the difference between them would be. It’s not like normal headphones where I can see how more expensive ones would be better
Aside from that they broke a bit, my shokz are a better build quality, I can wear them in the shower (IP68) and the battery lasts longer but as I just said to lowXP, the price difference ends the debate for me.
Sleep screamed again last night. Second night in a row. I think it has to do with sleep deprivation. Last night, I slept for five hours but I did stay up late to do an assignment and woke up early for work. I didn’t even procrastinate that one so much. I reckon once I work on my time management, the sleep will be better too. I have broken down all of my assignments using a planner and have specific time frames to do each step!
I think it’s time to speak to a GP about the screaming.
Yeah I might. It’s affecting everyone else’s sleep too.
If you have a smart watch, check how much deep sleep you are getting. It should be between 1.5 to 2 hours every night. Not saying that’s the problem but that’s what you should aim for, for a restful sleep.
Yeah not looking too crash hot! I would’ve been in bed for about 6.5 hours last night but only got ~5 hours of sleep.

That’s not too bad but I think you could benefit with more. Now look at your REM. You also need between 1.5 to 2 hours. Both are important.
If the screaming is happening with in the first few hours of sleep it’s probably deep sleep related. If it’s happening more towards the morning then it could be REM related.
Overstimulation during the day, both physical or mental, could also give you sleep problems.
REM sleep this week has been just over an hour. The only time I’ve woken up after screaming was approx 1.5 hours after I last looked at the time. I thought this was REM related. But I think the silver lining in all of this is that I get to revise sleep stuff, which will be helpful for my teaching :D
Thank you for your wisdom! I do wonder if you’ve worked in some kind of health related field or if it’s just a general interest thing.
Nah. Sleep studies interest me.
My daughter used to have night terrors as a wee one. I knew exactly when and at what time they would happen.
I hear one of the latest makeup trends is called “boyfriend blush”. I used to be made fun of for having a red face.

why would I want to look like I’m having another rosacea flare 🤷♀️
