Can’t be a midnight bot, because apparently it’s not working at midnight 😅 delayed thread bot

Shy bot is too shy!

halibutherring,

Looks like this thread might close out the day with 2x the comments of the r/Melbourne one.

jezbeenz,

Ha! Suckers!

Lol

Edit: forgot how to tag on Lemmy

I know it’s getting real interesting now. They’re just aiming for the body now. Stokes copped it on the elbow. Aussies got booed off. It’s all happening.

By the way I don’t know how to tag either. 👍

Duenan,
@Duenan@aussie.zone avatar

And Stokes played like a bat out of hell there, me thinks he was a tiny bit angry.

Let’s see what happens after the break.

MisssDarylC,

A couple of weeks ago I added someone from a dating app on Instagram (at their suggestion) and the chat has been on and off, I’m considering biting the bullet just suggesting we go for coffee this week. Thoughts?

jezbeenz,

Make the move!

MisssDarylC,

I’ve made the move, will post an update later if there is one 😊

halibutherring,

Sure!

Just finished the last of this calligraphy practice. Only two mistakes!! I’m quite happy with it. I love the red water colour. :) ( oh dear, the closer I look the worse it looks ) 😂

I reckon it looks beautiful! I’d put it on my wall.

To a completely uneducated eye, that is so beautiful. I love the energy in each character.

Seagoon_,
@Seagoon_@aussie.zone avatar

Thanks. That’s restrained!! If I had my way I’d be doing arabesques and flourishes on everything duckduckgo.com/?q=flourishes&atb=v314-1&iax=image…

jezbeenz,

I have no idea what it means but it is very pretty and dexterous :)

It’s the most famous mantra from the Heart Sutra.

“Gone gone, all the way over, gone to the other shore of enlightenment.”

If you have ever watched or read Monkey and Journey to the West this is shown by the pilgrims sailing to the other shore of a river in a bottomless boat.

One of the pilgrims, the real life person Tripitaka, wrote this sutra.

jezbeenz,

Ty for explaining :)

SituationCake,

The soup I made for diner was very yum. Small dices of onion, carrot, celery, zucchini and corn kernels, fry with generous amount of middle eastern spice mix, bottle of passatta, can of beans and stock. Cook until veg are perfect tenderness and consume with garlic bread. It’s the small dices that make it nice to eat.

CEOofmyhouse56,
@CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone avatar

This sounds really yummy. I love soup like this because you can freeze some and tomorrow’s tastes even better than today’s.

Hear me out

Cook the first half the pizza in the oven
Eat it while cooking the other half

Yea or nay?

StudChud,
CEOofmyhouse56,
@CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone avatar

Since a pizza takes what 10-15 minutes tops I can wait, then I don’t have to get up twice but I like your thought process.

SituationCake,

I miss sitcoms. The kind that are full of corny jokes and have 20 episodes a season. Seems that era of tv is dead, and it’s sad. Shows like Frasier, Seinfeld, Freinds, Big Bang theory etc. I guess with streaming being the main form of tv now it’s a different market.

StudChud,

…streaming being the main form of tv…

It’s too much. It’s too much!

Electronic_Owl,
@Electronic_Owl@aussie.zone avatar

I agree with you, I think the market has become so saturated with content that producers are either going with cringe reality shows, or period/crime drama for ratings, with not much in between.

I grew up in 70/80s UK and we had the likes of The Good Life, Fawlty Towers, Are You Being Served, Hi-de-Hi and countless others sitcoms. Sure, some of the content from those years wouldn’t pass the respect test these days, but they were part of life at the time.

Venting/whinging post warning: Mr Peeler ruined my favourite shot glasses. They were Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec inspired moulin rouge glasses I bought at the monet and friends exhibition at The Lume. I said repeatedly Don’t put them in the dishwasher. I even rescued them a few times when he was about to start a cycle and told him again. And what does he do… the design is all melted and ruined. Aargh! Dammit! End of rant.

the_procrastinata,

Sounds like he needs to replace them.

PeelerSheila,
@PeelerSheila@aussie.zone avatar

He should, but I don’t think he can as I don’t think they sell them anymore and he’s on jobseeker. Oh well, I guess they’re only glasses. Other people have got much bigger problems and here I am whining about glasses!

Thornburywitch,
@Thornburywitch@aussie.zone avatar

The whine isn’t about the glasses methinks. Fully justified vent about lack of memory imo.

StudChud,

I want to apologise to everyone here about having to put up and read about my side of things.

I know there are probably many others in tough positions and I’ve probably had too much a winge and complain today.

I should probably just focus on solving the problem and taking it in stride or waiting to solve the problem instead of being so down about all the worst aspects of it all and what it might mean.

Apologies to everyone for the doomposting.

MisssDarylC,

You don’t have to apologise for doom posting, the community is here to offer support and venting is always welcome! I read your previous comment and it sounds like you’re in a tough spot! I hope you can find some form of a solution.

SituationCake,

Venting is part of solving the problem. It helps to get it out.

CEOofmyhouse56,
@CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone avatar

No need to apologise at all. In fact it’s better out than in.

PeelerSheila,
@PeelerSheila@aussie.zone avatar

You’ve got nothing to apologise for imo.

Goddess_Amaterasu,
@Goddess_Amaterasu@aussie.zone avatar

It’s ok to post about your situation, you’re already ahead as you’ve realised that you need to take steps to fix it. It’d be worse if you didn’t do anything at all and just complaining. A step in the right direction. You got this

No stress. It’s part of the dynamic here. The people that frequent this DT understand that.

RosaliePreistley, (edited )

Don’t stress about the doom posting. We all need this space to vent also and people can understand we all have bad days and most of us are struggling with the rising costs of living.

That you’ve supported your partner whether it’s left you in a precarious position or not is something to be really proud of. No matter how tough things get, they know you’ll be there for them and that sounds like a good relationship.

StudChud, (edited )

Hey mate, it’s okay. Some might not like it, and that’s fine. But we are a wholesome, supportive community. Whether it’s supporting someone’s cooking endeavours, their adventures for grocery shopping, or when their washing machine shits itself in the middle of a wash.

We’re all guilty of complaining and doomposting here - no need to apologise. Some people have the good life here (i wish i was one of them ToT), but there is no comparing us. We’re all (mostly lol) Melbournians. You belong here, friend.

I finally got enough FlyBuys points to get another Bunnings gift card. That last 27c seemed to take an awfully long time. Once it arrives I can get more manure and mulch for the garden.

jezbeenz,

Bloody heated throw blanket died after only 6 months :( I made sure I got a “good” one too. Just checked online and luckily it has a 3 year warranty…
