Well, I left it right till the last minute and am only now having a shower and dinner (because otherwise I would've felt like curling up in bed...)

But I have cleared out 90% of unused/expired things in my pantry!! and consolidated 70% of what remains (the rest I'll still need to use for a while). There was an embarrassing amount of nuts (esp almonds) I had to throw out :(

I've also cleared out random boxes in my car from months ago from when the new car stereo was installed. Recycling bin pretty full after all this.

Pretty satisfied with today's effort! This weekend's big cull is the clothes. I think I'm making decent progress. I seriously need to book a mover ahead of time tho, any recommendations?

[-] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 5 points 6 days ago

Good work. ๐ŸŒž

it's a dreadful job but very necessary, I always feel so guilty at throwing out food, even when it's expired

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 5 points 6 days ago

Oh gosh it was utterly heartbreaking tossing out so many nuts. I just kept thinking back to my starving uni days where I would've cherished all that food and learnt to make so many things with it rather than let it go to waste. It's a good wake up call to keep my dry food purchases over the next few months to a minimum

The last time I moved I used Man with a Van - only it was two of them. No complaints, no damage to items. And some items had to be carried down a narrow & twisty staircase. I believe their charges are about industry standard.

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 2 points 6 days ago

Fantastic, they were who I was looking at. Between you and Spud that's a pretty solid recommendation. I don't want to spend too long paralysed between choosing different movers to save maybe $100

[-] Catfish@aussie.zone 3 points 6 days ago

So long as you donโ€™t get Lawrence. Not sure he still works there, but is a creepy fuck.

[-] StudChud@aussie.zone 2 points 6 days ago
[-] StudChud@aussie.zone 2 points 6 days ago

I like man with a van, personally. Used them when I moved from Epping to the CBD, and then again when I moved from the CBD to Brunswick. I like that I could put it on the website what I had to move, how big things were, and how many (chairs, drawers, etc). And at the time their rates were reasonable.

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 2 points 6 days ago

Yes I really do like their website! They seem reasonable to me and I just want to not have to think too much (esp with new place being up 3 flights of stairs). I'll probably just go with them but need to start consolidating which items I need their help with. Definitely fridge, couch, washing machine, tv stand, mattress, probably accommodate a few heavy boxes and the dismantled bed frame...

[-] Catfish@aussie.zone 8 points 6 days ago

Fuck! I booked a class. Money mean I must actually go and ๐Ÿฆ™talk to people โ˜ ๏ธ

[-] StudChud@aussie.zone 7 points 6 days ago

Stardew Valley is on Google Play Pass... Which I have... But I know it's a timesink... But also I love that genre.

Fuck.

[-] bacon@aussie.zone 5 points 6 days ago

four in real life years will fly by

[-] StudChud@aussie.zone 5 points 6 days ago

Hopefully in four years I'll be in my industry for a little bit too!

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 5 points 6 days ago

Ahh womenโ€™s BBL cricket on right now and tonight.

Sport saves me once again!

[-] StudChud@aussie.zone 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Fuck it I might watch it just for the brain distraction. I think I still have that link you sent me months ago, it would be on that site yeah?

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 4 points 6 days ago

Sent you a DM

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Itโ€™s actually on free to air through the channel 7 website or app.

The link I sent you awhile ago is dead.

I can send you another for cricket if you want to avoid ads.

[-] Llabyrinthine@aussie.zone 4 points 6 days ago

Hola DDT fam,

  • Lovely night catching up with a beautiful friend.
  • Drinks @ Franklins
  • Music @ the Croxton

Itโ€™s a wee bit chilly, but my heart is warm.

Also, am re-watching Twin Peaksโ€ฆ

Joan Chen ๐Ÿ˜

[-] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 points 6 days ago

Manโ€ฆ I feel actual sadness and like Iโ€™m shouting into a void

[-] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 6 days ago

hey, we're here

[-] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I think I've worked out part of a water colour and western calligraphy project I have.

I'll choose a lovely modernish font, one that is free flowing and a little artie. Maybe I'll do two, one that is a little more serious but in the same family of fonts. And then I will practice my arse off and write out the alphabets, photograph and then upload as my own typeface on the puter. ๐Ÿ‘

also, fuck nibs and textas, I'm awesome at using a blade to write and that's what I'll do. I have never used a quill tho.
