Hi cute doggo 👋
just_kitten@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Mickeypuss is so cute. Look as his little paws and those beady eyes.

It’s always fun when the street view car gets pulled in for RBT.
StudChud@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Hahahaha I love this! So random. Their crimes immortalized on GMaps forever (or until they send the car out again to take updated photos lol)
Baku@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Actually even once they do update it, you can still look at historical street views, at least until google decides it’s costing them too much and shuts it doan

Depression is driving me crazy 😭
I think being bed bound for 2 months did not help.
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Rainy grey days too. Hugs. We are here.
Mittens_meow@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Being bedbound is awful - not surprised you’re depressed. Do something nice for yourself
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Shout out to the homeless bloke screaming at me on my way to the station this morning. Just a great way to start the morning. Also love that after having a go at me for what ever imagined sin he calls out “help me” after I’ve walked off and ignored him. Yeaaaaah, not gonna do that dude. My empathy extends as far as not taking your crutch off you and belting you over the head with it.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 7 months ago
This is so sad. It’s like he had a moment of clarity .
He’s angry at society ( and he has cause to be )
but he can only take it out on individuals, but then realises individuals are the only people who can help him .
Doesn’t mean you should put up with it tho, he needs professional help.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I reckon more likely trying to manipulate me cause I’m pretty sure he insulted me for not helping him.

I’ve figured out my next audiobook now that I’ve finished World War Z.
I’m going to try and work my way through Terry Pratchett’s Discworld books. There’s like 41 of them though and figuring out a reading order is pretty complicated. Peoples “guides” online are more suggestions than guides. One thing everyone agrees on though, even apparently Mr. Pratchett himself, is not to start at the beginning.
I’ve started with book #4, Mort. Which is the first in the “Death” sub-series. Like I said, it’s complicated.
Zane@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I hope you love them all. The Witches series was my favourite, my toddler is starting small, with “Where’s my Cow?”, but it’s just as good as the rest of them.
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Ha I started these over the long weekend. In defiance of all advice I am starting from the start (but will probably wander later). I am enjoying them.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Bit chilly this morning. I had to put pants on. They have sloths on them. ☺
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 7 months ago
First morning in UGGs and trackies for me, this year.
Not gonna lie, I dig it.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I put the heater on because Bill had cold paws. 🐈⬛🐾❄️
Aradina@lemmy.ml 7 months ago
The radiator heater has been taken out of storage and is ready to go
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 7 months ago
was 10 when I left my place at 6:40. Its been colder though, I think 2/3 weeks ago was single digits.
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Thank you rubbish truck driver for knocking over my recycling bin. Always a pleasure being hunched over and gathering pieces of cardboard at 730 am.
Good think the recycle truck hasn’t been around yet.
just_kitten@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I’m 100% sure I’ll regret this in a few months but right now the cold is really so welcome. I love not sweating!!
Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I fucking love the cold. I’m genetically predisposed to being warm all the time. So the cold is the only time I feel comfy in normal clothes
Mittens_meow@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I have the most freezing house on top of a hill. Was 11 degrees today, too cold.
Cendana@aussie.zone 7 months ago
It was such a purrrfect last few days.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Myki inspectors on 64 heading out of city along St Kilda Rd, now at commercial rd
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I made a chocolate cherry cake this morning and have already eaten far too much of it.
Catfish@aussie.zone 7 months ago
This sewing thing would go considerably faster if I could do any while the cats are awake. Pin thieving varmints!
Mittens_meow@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I just ate an avocado that wasn’t unripe or overripe. That never happens !!! I should buy a lottery ticket right ?
tone212_@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Haas? Then yes! For Shepard, I feel those are good for longer.
melbourne_wanderer@aussie.zone 7 months ago
my wife’s super power is the ability always to pick perfectly ripe avocados
StudChud@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I could really go a good hot Shepard’s Pie right now.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Aldi have individual ones in the freezer. They are divine.
My homemade ones consist of beef mince with flavours and mash potato on top. No base. Just slapped in a pie dish and baked.
Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 7 months ago
HEATHEN! A shepherd’s pie is made from lamb. Beef makes cottage pie. Identical in almost every respect, but for the beast of origin. Mince is allowable nowadays, but for both sorts really should be (and in MY household still is) made with slices of leftover sunday roast and leftover roasted veg, all moistened with leftover gravy and the leftover roasted spuds roughly crushed to make the top. There is no dish better than that. Try it. I dare you.
StudChud@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Ah I will grab some on the next shop!
Presently we have roast lamb and vegetable noodles leftovers to finish up before getting more food lol
Nath@aussie.zone 7 months ago
If they’re in the freezer, they’re hardly going to be hot, are they? Sheesh!
Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Made with avocado?
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I make vegetarian pie, with mushrooms and vegies in a garlic gravy, mash potato on top made with a little sour cream, butter and paprika on top
just_kitten@aussie.zone 7 months ago
This week has been a lot more cruisey at work after getting through the backlog. Thank heavens for the school holidays. Go away everyone!
Duenan@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Another work person wanting something early this morning disturbing my personal time.
I’m a little irritated by it today and eating into my coffee time early in the moment.
I need to learn to deflect and defer them for later and to be able to tell them that in person.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Just remove the option of contacting you before hours. I have to take teams off my phone every couple of weeks for the same reason.
Duenan@aussie.zone 7 months ago
They were physically in my office space when I got in this morning.
StudChud@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Practice saying: yeah, nah.
Coffee is much more important that other people deferring their responsibilities onto you unceremoniously and early.

I was digging through my photos from Adelaide and found more angry warning signs. So continuing on from my Adelaide complaint thread a few weeks ago:
Being at a train station without intending to board a train is a $1,250 expiration notice, just like not buying your bike a ticket (their version of Myki is on the train, so the station isn’t a ticketed area)
Standing too close to the driver door is a $750 expiration notice
Walking through carriages while the train is moving isn’t just politely discouraged, it’s also a $750 expiration notice
Notably though, they seem to have replaced all the cops with ambulance drivers and Wilton security lol. Only saw 1 cop car there, but about 100 Wilson security and about 1000 ambulances (that must be where all ours vanished to)
prime_factor@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Don’t forget the Victims of Crime surcharge on top of the fine.
Baku@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Yoooo that’s wild
Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I went to this party the other day. There was this lady there that kept staring at me the whole time. I’m going to be in a group of people and she’ll be there as well on the weekend.
Do you think it’s worth trying to ask her out?
I know how this sounds but I missed a lot of this stuff growing up due to bad decisions.
I feel like a teenager with this stuff.
00Steve@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Yeh this weekend sounds like a good chance to actually get to chat to her a bit and get a bit of a feel of things. Then if it feels good absolutely ask her out :)
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 7 months ago
maybe just chat at the party for a while and see how it goes , then ask her out 😊🤞
Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Does the staring thing mean she wants me to talk to her? I know it’s a dumb question but I honestly don’t know 😔
Baku@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Who wants to post tomorrow’s DT in 3 hours?
If you get busy or fall asleep it’s alright! If you sign up but haven’t posted by 12:15, it’s first in best dressed
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Does anyone have a cat wheel for their cats? If so what did you get?
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Package arrived! And turned out to be only one of two items I ordered (and the half that is only useful if I have the other half). ☹️ I found another tracking number for the other item, it is at least also in the country. It looks like they split up so this one could spend some more time in Chicago for some reason.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Gonna have another crack at paramount food court. Any suggestions? Dumplings would be great!
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I was feeling adventurous today so I purchased a flat white instead of my usual cappuccino and I’m disappointed. I’m not sure if coffee even went in there.
So my question is: Is a flat white just another name for a deflated latte because I’m struggling to taste any coffee in there?
just_kitten@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I’m on s3 of For All Mankind and dear lord the writing on this show has gone down so dramatically from the relatively disciplined s1…
wscholermann@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Headlines I’m bored with: the Royal Family, the Israel/Palestine conflict and Brittany Higgins.
Some may consider this controversial but I think daylights savings time should be permanent.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I just brushed Ted Cat. He is less fluffy than thought, he is a hefty chonker, which is why he’s on a diet.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Having a nice lazy start to the morning. Have a GP appointment shortly and currently sitting in a cafe nearby waiting for a bagel and coffee before I slowly head into to work for a short day
Mittens_meow@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I have started watching suits. Only about 10 years too late. It’s hard to find interesting shows that I don’t need to supplement with phone browsing.

Hey guys
I just wanted to let you know I will no longer be making the new thread at midnight. If I’m awake at that time I’ll do it otherwise I’ll be asleep like a normal person.
I have enjoyed steering this ship the last few months and I hope you laughed at least once at my stupidity. I guess this is my resignation letter. I look forward to going back to my regular bedtime.
Many thanks @CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ♥
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I wondered when you would.
The rest was very welcome, thank you.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 7 months ago
I did it because I’m a team player and I honestly got a kick out of sharing what popped into my head at midnight.
I was starting to get unexplained headaches and I’ve put it down to staying up way past my bedtime. I appreciate your thank you. ♥
useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Thanks mate 🤝 maybe the bot can be resurrected one day.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 7 months ago
dammit, we need the bot
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 7 months ago
You’re welcome 🤝
I miss him/her/them 🤖
bacon@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Thank you for your service.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 7 months ago
😂 you’re welcome. Thank you for yours.
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Thank you! I would offer to take over but no force under the sun (or moon) sees me up at midnight unless things have gone very wrong. We’ll figure something out. Maybe I can suss out a bot one day if I ever get time and space
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 7 months ago
No worries.
dumblederp@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Thanks for the efforts, protect ya sleep.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 7 months ago
No worries
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 7 months ago
Thanks for your service 07 It’s been much appreciated. Get some rest.
