I got an anxiety one where something bad was going down and I couldn’t get to the ‘dial’ part of my phone to call for help. Boo. Various versions of this dream pop up when I’m stressed
One of my rental applications has been passed to the owner to look at, giving me a sudden case of FOMO. What if I accept a place and could have got something better?! I haven't even looked at the place yet and I'm already having second thoughts. Hopefully the other place I applied for will come through for me first, it looks about 9.5/10 on my wish list instead of 7-8 ish.
I'm definitely going to have a look. I'd also rather have a certain place to live than hold out for perfection and end up homeless. But I also don't want to just grab the first thing available and end up somewhere that I don't feel happy.
I do have a couple of months up my sleeve, so it will probably end up being about how I feel when I see it in person. There is always that element you can't really tell untill you are there - something to do with the way light falls and air flows and whether you can see sky when you look out the window.
Eyyyyy. Looks like I get to vote on 3 May as well! But not in the Australian elections... in the Tropical Soup ones instead - which I'm not eligible to vote for from overseas. I get to vote hours before I leave! What luck.

Even just having road police be more active in policing exhausts and general car volume. I live near Sandown park, when there's a race on so many hoons cut through my suburb and they just have to "rip it up" when fanging it from speedbump to speedbump in the back streets. The cops could be throwing out defect notices and fines all day long.
This is actually super interesting. Consider screenshotting it all and send a tip to the Guardian. I'm sure the Libs aren't the only ones using these predictive analytics stuff though.
This is why political patties want your email and phone number -- so they can add you to a database and enrich it with data scraped from profiling platforms, data brokers, ethnicity predictors and other commercial data sources.
An annoying thing about political emails is they're exempt from regular opt-in and spam laws so you pretty much just have to block them. Very interesting what they're tracking here though
I reported one of those Trumpets of Patriots ads and was told they were exempt from complaints because they were political no matter how awful and targeting minorities
It really made me angry how they were allowed to get away with saying such awful things and lying.
That pisses me off too. My Do Not Call and Do Not Knock are intended for everybody I don't know or didn't contract in some way. Unless you're trying to tell me the house is on fire, fuck off with your exemption.
Another rental application in. Unfortunately the inspection is today & I can't go because of a dental appointment. But it looks perfect for me in the photos, hopefully I can be considered and get a different inspection time. The place does have too many yuccas. I'm not sure if the excessive green of the lawn is photoshop or if the previous owner did some serious watering before selling to make it look nice but I'll be surprised if it is not dead and yellow in real life. But the house layout is great, there is a sliding door I can put a dog door insert in and an area that looks like it would be perfect to put some vegies in without much effort. So fingers crossed again on tihs one.
The other one I put an application in looks like it might be ok, but there are a lot of maybes that you can't see in the (out of date) pictures that could make it unsuitable too, so I'm not bothering with the crossed fingers for that one.
Edit to add: this is what happens when you plant one little yucca
::: spoiler one little yucca, what could be the harm in that?
:::
Yeah, the trunks on those are massive and look like they are damaging the fence. Who knows what the roots are getting into. In another 10-15 years the small one that's been put in against the house will be causing some serious damage too.
So a heads up to anyone who has a Harmony universal remote - they've decided that come may you can no longer update them. As in you can no longer program them at all. They're useless.
I'm pretty sure that's a violation of consumer law given they're deliberately crippling a hardware device that you own...
::: spoiler Dental bullshit
I let the dental receptionist know due to a constantly recurring tooth infection I needed enough antibiotics to last until my appointment in just under a month.
Script gets sent directly to pharmacy without letting me speak to the dentist - go to pick it up and it’s only 5 days worth. I only realised on pickup so there wasn’t enough time to call them.
I’m going to be ringing them in the morning and then exploring my other options if need be but already know this is going to be a clusterfuck
:::
You might have to keep going back to them, and it may not be their fault (although they should have told you when you made the request). When I had the finger infection the doctor said new govt. regulations mean they are not allowed to order a repeat on antibiotics, even if they know you are going to need more than one pack.
Yeah, I’m keenly aware of antibiotic stewardship 😣
I wasn’t aware of the new guidelines so fingers crossed that’s the only issue. I’m hoping that I might be able to get a pack each 5 days without a fight…
This isn’t ideal for me either. But unfortunately due to being immunocompromised and having already had a root canal the infection roars right back every time I finish. Starts spreading into my jaw and neck.
I’m just trying to contain it until I can get the extraction so I don’t end up in hospital with sepsis.
I don't know if you can still do this but it's worth a try, if you have a regular GP ask them for antibiotics. That's what I did when I had abscesses before I got my wisdom teeth out.
thinking about getting my master bedroom windows tinted. Its only a problem this time of year and despite blockout blinds you still get a tone of light. Cant stick the curtains down cause cats love hanging out on the window sills. Anyone done tinting or found a better solution?
They came with the house when we bought it. The north side of the house has several windows (including our bedroom) and has parklands behind, so it gets windy.
If we didn't have the shutters, windows would have blown in already 😁
I've only done privacy frosting before but the application process is the same. It's a very easy DIY job and the film is inexpensive on ebay and I'm sure other places. All this to say you could definitely set aside an hour or two to DIY it and see the result.
Yesterday's Scary Emails I Didn't Want To Look At And Felt Like Shutting Off The World Over were looked at this am (frog, swallow, etc). They were not as bad as expected. Just need to get one document signed by supervisor who I'm meeting on Thursday.
Work, otoh, has my crank level dialled right up today. Clashing with some poor assumptions and lack of communication (imo) around the scope of this job. I'm used to writing my own quotes for these kinds of things and having full control over managing client expectations including reinterpreting their own terribly written scope. Now I'm spending much much more time than I expected on this... well, it's not my fault or problem at this point, it'll take what it does to meet the scope as directed, and if the company bears a loss on it that's up to them to be tighter about quoting 😇
I can't wait to get back to my usual role because I still resent this side of the job... Luckily this is maybe the second time I've had to do it in nearly a year.
Just fyi - watch out for him raising the dose of the “melatonin” if it isn’t working. As vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin and taken too much or too often can result in toxicity.
What I’m saying is it might be safer to just allow him to abuse the melatonin than take the vitamin D unknowingly and risk overdose. It can also be cumulative if he’s taking it for a while.
Only 3 is hopefully fine if that’s all there is and then it’s finished. But just to be aware that they’re not a safe placebo like a sugar pill especially when someone takes too many
When you're a certain level of chronically ill/disabled you have a lot of time on your hands. But then you're too unwell to actually do much of substance with it, or even concentrate enough for learning >:( It's not restful or easy at all and neither is it fruitful.

You know a very stubborn person might do it so be careful. Edit: Sorry, he already has raised the dose of the actual melatonin to three times the recommended amount. It isn’t safe to do that with vitamin D. https://www.abc.net.au/news/health/2022-07-06/vitamin-d-overdosing-toxic-effect-how-much-should-you-take/101205656

I get music is subjective, and I can see how his stuff is appealing...but critically acclaimed?
Music critics need to get their shit together.

I liked his album Real Gone so I grabbed a bestof and pretty much hated the whole thing.

Just finished listening to Rain Dogs. I didn't hate it, but didn't love it.
Happy to skip any future albums that may be recommended.
CW Stoneking is much better.

Here's one for @Catfish@aussie.zone
I want one.
Catfish@aussie.zone · 3 pts · 1y
Wow! And @Llabyrinthine@aussie.zone I believe
So many tiny curves scare me, but so tempting.! And the lack of blathering on makes it even better. Will be watching more of this person's work.
TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone · 4 pts · 1y
Yeah, something to aspire to. Her and Cornelius just fill me with awe.
Llabyrinthine@aussie.zone · 1 pts · 1y
Oh, wow. Yes, please. Looks like I have some watching to do. @Catfish 🖤
