I think r/Melbourne on Reddit has really taken a hit. It's like someone let the air out of the balloon.

Agreed. It's sad we couldn't all remain together, but I think this place has the best of us

Unpopular opinion: I wish we would all move back to reddit. I like the layout better. It’s easier to use. I do not care about the politics, I’m all out of energy at the moment.

A woman on the train opposite me is having an absolute blast smiling and nodding her head along to her music. It is so joyous to see. Even better that she’s wearing headphones and I just have to imagine the music!

Ever have one of those mornings that just seems so perfect and well-rested and you feel at peace with yourself ... only to have it thoroughly sullied by the realisation that you have to throw your natural pace out of the window to fit the demands of paid work?

I am going to do the sums this weekend on how I can move to that 4 day week asap while not taking too much of a financial hit. I always told myself I'd do it as soon as I got PR, but fuck if expenses haven't ballooned despite my best efforts.

Damn, all the going ons have been really affecting me recently. The kid getting stabbed on Monday night was the straw that broke the camels back. Of course people have been stabbed since the invention of stabbing instruments, and it happens in every suburb, city, country, and in every decade, year, and (seemingly) month, but it's pretty shit that it all seems to be happening right around my area

This one, and the one that happened in sunshine a month ago are particularly affecting me because on top of them happening in my area, they're both my age too. I'm probably sounding kind of entitled/selfish but it's just a hard nut to swallow that they were my age doing the same thing I do several times a week, then someone decided to just.. end them... Forever gone, all that potential just lost for good

Someone from leadership let it slip that there will be no payrises this year since the business is struggling. That’s fine… except I’m still being paid the same wage despite having a huge increase in responsibilities. Yeah, nah to that. This is what I get for being nice.

Sitting in my Kmart oodie, drinking negroni gin, watching old episodes of the Crystal Maze and ruminating on what my life has become...this is a whole mood.

I think having hair supplements for a few months really helped, hair is getting a bit wild from new growth!!

During my haircut yesterday, (which turned out fabulous btw) I was informed that there is a massive shortage of qualified hairstylists. The lovely lady doing my hair was the only one there and has bookings until Feb of next year. astonishing.

For the real gist: I was trying to put what I saw travelling with my declining mum and the chaos in different words badly.

It was exhausting travelling with her and I feel bad that it was exhausting.

Bunch of orcas have shown up at Merimbula - somewhat unexpectedly. Could they be looking for Taylor Swift tickets? Orcas

Well, we got through the first night of the new sleep plan for baby. He was NOT happy with the new arrangements. But this was to be expected. Just have to keep going.

Also partner is home on holidays at the moment and the division of responsibilities has been a lot better. I actually got time to write yesterday! I wrote a lot! My brain is coming back online!

I’m in such a better mood and feel less depressed just thanks to having that little bit of time to make serious progress on a project. It’s scary how easy it is to lose yourself simply because there is no time and/or energy to BE yourself…

[-] Force_majeure122@aussie.zone 8 points 1 year ago

Real talk.
I think y'all need to post more of your meals. If it's just me posting potato inspired content then people might get the idea that potatoes are actually really fucking amazing, which might increase their price, which I do not want.
Any food content is welcome
