  This is the view from my accom tonight that I wished I could’ve stayed two nights at, but alas only one… The sound of the river and the clear, fresh air is so healing… could spend a whole week here soaking up the everything.

  Well it’s happened. A good friend of mine, who suffers from major anxiety from childhood emotional abuse, has finally caught covid. In spite of double masking everywhere outside the house and all possible precautions. These new variants are sneaky to the max. Take care out there peeps.

  • imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

    A mate if mine who is similar copped it recently and narrowed it down to a couple of interactions at shops (not masking but a pretty careful person)…if it helps they were sick for about 4 days then boom. Better. Well but of fatigue in the following week but just like the flu.

    I have started masking again on the trains etc.

  Sent some of Dad’s ashes (about a teaspoon) to the sea at the local beach on his deathiversary, like I promised myself I would. Will bury some more in the garden later.
  Now treating myself to a breakfast at yet another local cafe.

  I have discovered a problem with finally having a really comfy bed…I don’t want to get up. It’s cold out there.

  Today has been a good day. Lovely sunshine; I’ve got an interview lined up for next week for a job I really want; I went and checked out some art; I ran into a friend; and I ate cake at Brunetti.

  And now I’m home with a fluffy cat on my lap and a cup of tea in my hand.

    sounds like heaven

    I have spent some time out in the sun, did a little gardening, did some pottering around, chook is in the oven and now I’m listening to Hitch hikers Guide to the Galaxy .

    That cup of tea sounds good, think I will make one.

  Does anyone else have a cheese fetish?

  I just bought 6 different cheeses - burger cheese, cheese sticks, Mersey Valley, pecorino, laughing cow (one fridged, one pantry). They all have different applications.

    Castello blue cheese is well up there for me.

    • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

      castello is delicious on crusty french bread

      and blue cheddar is good too

      Yes. That’s a good cheese! I like it with those fancy fig biscuits.

    My current count is a grated tasty, feta, block of vintage cheddar, goats cheese, Parmesan wedge, cream cheese, Jarlsberg. So that’s 7. Basically the bare minimum.

  It doesn’t matter how much you’ve seen of the photos and accounts of the atomic bombs in Japan, the museum at Hiroshima still leaves a real impact on you. The crowds are huge though, I’m very glad I booked a ticket to enter the museum earlier (7:30-8:30) and take my time without navigating hordes of school students and tourists

  source

  • tone212_@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

    I visited the museum last year. There were people in tears after going through the main section. There’s really no sugar coating that very dark part of history. When you come into the light and massive windows overlooking the peace park after the main section, it’s a nice snap back into the somewhat peaceful present.

  Picked up my MC prescription at lunch today and it might be too early to call whether it’s the products or just a trick of the mind but things seem brighter already. I’ve taken myself out for dinner and I’ve booked a movie ticket after 👌

  I didn’t have to do the complicated blood tests today but I will soon.

  My Minecraft bees absconded so I built a glass hothouse and trapped the new ones inside. I proceeded to watch the little buggers clip through the glass and escape multiple times (retrieving them with leads)

  Some bright spark decided to bring fish for lunch to work and warm it in the microwave.

  What’s worse? They decided to eat lunch at their desk.

  Got to my accom about half an hour ago, booked tickets for the peace memorial museum tomorrow, there’s a cafe right downstairs which is perfect to get myself going asap in the morning. Think I can get it all done in time. I hate rushing through something so important, but it is what it is.

  Of course it’s Aussie Boomers who didn’t have to do their national service, who share facebook support for Rishi’s proposal.

  • SituationCake@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

    I believe in peace not war, but I’m rational enough to know the world just doesn’t work like that and there’s a minimum military that each country needs to maintain. In Australia if we want more people to join the way to do it is to make it a better environment. Examples of military culture like whistleblowers going to jail, Ben Roberts-Smith saga, hazing, attitudes to women etc; it’s not an attractive proposition to most normal people when thinking about careers.

    source

    • Baku@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

      attitudes to women etc

      I’ve been saying a ton of ads promoting women in the ADF, so they seem to be pushing quite hard to change that. Whether they’re actually doing anything in practice, or it’s just a giant marketing budget and a lecture about inclusivity is anyone’s guess. I’m not even a woman, but at least based on my internal stereotype of the average dude in the military, I would feel really out of place and depply uncomfortable, and that’s ignoring the whole killing people thing. Although I could probably be convinced to join a supporting role or something in the DVA

    is a job, not all national service is military, it can be in all kinds of jobs and departments

    I would rather they were just guaranteed public service jobs, that might actually help society, jobs like helping the environment and community service

    source

    • dumblederp@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

      I feel national service would also include community services, clean up, fixing things, elderly care, etc. Not just d-fens force.

    Some boomers did do compulsory national service

    source

    • Nath@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

      It only ended in 1973, so yes the first ~10 years of boomers would have had national service. Even worse: Those kids would have been drafted to go to Vietnam.

      Imagine being the last kid called up. Born a day later, you’d be in the clear!
      Imagine being that kid born a day later - missing out on the draft to Vietnam by a day!

      Whether they were personally called up or not, they absolutely were not in favour of national service at the time.

  Everyones out there talking about how they wish they could have the feeling of their first love or first root again. I’m just sitting here wishing coffee hit the same as it did the first time.

  source

  • Duenan@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

    Maybe what you need is to get several different blends or original coffees and rotate them around so that you get the different taste of them all, sort of like a palate cleanser but over several days of the week.

      Not a bad idea!

  It seems my org has made their decision. They’re going to move the new kid in on the 5th as planned and just put agency workers here. All they had to do is push it back 2/3 weeks and the next LT they’ve lined up will be moving in and it would work out better for everyone

  Too warm with the oodie on, but too cold without it (even though I have a shirt, and two hoodies on).

  I’ve noticed my apartment is weird; the balcony faces north, overlooking the alley, but no view due to the apartment building next door. It is also a taller building than mine, so no sun can hit my balcony until spring/summer when the Earth is closed and tilted appropriately.

  Makes for too cold winters and too hot summers. But! I’ve been approved for URGS, so I don’t have to stress about the electricity bills piling up, all aid off now. And since the Anko brand portable heater carked it last year and hasn’t been used, our electricity consumption has gone down by 7kwh on average. That little Anko heater was a fucking power guzzler.
