Wow, wild day… Drove past a servo and saw a ton of smoke. Called 000 and chucked a U turn and then the smoke was all gone. Decided to hop on the FRV radio, and apparently it was caused by a diesel generator for a pressure washer and was more or less just a puff of smoke
The old smokey generator startup. A common caise of smoke alarms. Was 000 nice to you?
Yeah. But she didn’t know how to spell Maribyrnong and honestly neither do I. I had maps open since I didn’t know the address so I was able to read off of that.
Interestingly it looked like the liberty next door had been burnt in a fire too, some of the petrol pumps were a bit charred and the entrances were all blocked off
I generally give up about 3 letters in and go for Mar% and let the computer figure it out 😁
It’s the “byrnong” part that always gets me. Mari…benong? Binong? Bingbong?
Mari-byr-nong
don’t ever live there, the soil is a toxic waste hazard, every evil shit there is, is there, not sure about ionising radiation but it wouldn’t surprise me
the river too
Gym session this evening and had some young dude call me ‘sir’.
I was puzzled until my son informed me that the young bloke was probably scared of me.
Perhaps I should learn to smile more.
grrr
I love singing this song and changing the words to make it sound creepy.

I am woman who will for your honour. I’ll be the hero you’re dreaming of.
Makes it even better with sound effects on the mic.
I know the wrong words to Summer of 69 due to Broadmeadows speed metal band Kurgan’s cover: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5q4pd-fbYIc starts at 11:38.
I grew up in Broady.
Shrieks indicate Boyo has found a spider in the yard. I shall need my cape and hammer.
New mouse day. Logitech G502 Hero. Seems okay, hope it lasts longer than the Razer’s I’ve been using the last few years. I’m heavy handed, I feel I’m heavy everything, I wear stuff out.
Very nice, hope it’s a good mouse, I’ve got a G600 myself and love it and it’s lasted ages for me.
With all the buttons on the side? I don’t think I could handle that.
I’ve got the G700 which only has 3 buttons on the side (but is otherwise much the same) and it’s pretty good, but I think I would struggle with more buttons. I have a game pad I can use for the other hand which works well in combination with the mouse for PC games, but I usually have to write myself out customised instructions for each game so I can figure out what I’m doing.
I’ve got some Alienware something or another and it has 3 buttons on the side and 1 below the scroll wheel for changing DPI (I think) and I don’t use any of them. The DPI thing changes the mouse speed, but got jammed and started doing it randomly which pissed me off so I turned it off. 1 of the side buttons goes forward in chrome and the other goes back, but I have no clue what the other does
Yep, that’s the one, some are hard to reach but with how many there that I could reach, they were pretty handy for some games.
My thumb is brutal on the side of mice. I mostly play action games so I reckon I engage some kind of unconscious power grip when the red mist takes over. My last two mice I’ve worn in the side, and a bit busted middle click a bit.

Rang up my mechanic place and they said they’d do the parking light on the opposite side for 20 so that’s 50 all up excluding any extra time due to difficulties.
At this stage I’m hoping to sort it out in a week’s time, hope I’m able to hold out till then.
That sounds pretty reasonable. I paid just over $42 to buy 2 headlight globes at Supercheap (and that was only special) recently.
Ah ok, are you replacing them yourself or getting someone else to do them?
I did it myself. Fortunately in my car it is a bit awkward to reach the globes but not too hard.
Oh that’s fairly lucky, I wish I could have replaced them myself but it seems the price my mechanic was offering isn’t too bad in the end, cheaper than if I went with Supercheap Auto and did it through their Fitting service.
Marrr in the morn i go mark out the shadows to shove up the arse of the developer next door.
Goddamn clouds
Winter solstice is here. Brrr. 🥶🥶
Happy solstice!! 🌻
Good night everyone. 😘
The night air is so beautiful tonight, cold but smells so sweet.
This is when I’m most productive at reading my emails, believe it or not.
Hey, I don’t judge. I’m at my most efficient cleaning self at 2/3am
Managed to wake up, but feel really sick. Back to bed for an hour or so. Still a success
Yeah I now wake up every day between 5:30 and 6:30 pretty naturally. I reckon as long as you get up and do some basic wake up thing you can then go back to bed and not wreck the habit. I do that on weekends.
I do that too.
brrrr
🔥solstice has rounded. May your year be brighter in whatever fashion you need 🔥
