  I really think we need to give this thread a different name like The Melbourne Yarn or The Melbourne Chit Chat / Shit Chat. Cmon marketing people what are your thoughts?

    Melbourne Shit Chat is brilliant!

    source

    • RustyRaven@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      It can change with mood, Chit Chat on a good day, Shit Chat for bad, and Shit Shat for the really bad days

      It’s what my friends and I call a catch up.

      I don’t want anyone to feel like they can’t talk serious stuff here.

      love it!

    Interesting. I’m not against it but, the DT name is legendary. Why change?

    source

    • CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      True. My feelings are that we’ve moved on from the motherland and could give it its own identity.

      Also I’m pot stirrer.

      I think we can keep the DT name and have a subtitle too!

    The Melbourne Yarn sounds like either a knitting group or a bunch of boring old men sitting around having painfully slow conversations that go nowhere. Something more active and exciting would be better. Maybe the Melbourne Choose Your Own Adventure thread.

      Stitch & bitch is pretty common in yarn circles

    I think maybe we can try different ones every now and again.

      That’s a good idea

      The Melbourne Cat Scratching Pole.

      The Force_majeure Daily Memorial Thread?

      Not quite the vibe I was thinking

      source
• Duenan@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  I took out a splinter from my finger yesterday.

  This morning it’s now a stupid blister and hurts like a mother. Left pointer finger as well which is a massive pain.

  Argh.

  source

  • Thornburywitch@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    If there’s any sign of redness around the injury site - go see a doctor FAAAST. You might need a tetanus shot or antibiotics to stop infection. A blister is not a good sign.

    source

    • Duenan@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I’ll keep an eye on it and see how it goes. I don’t really need to panic at this point.

      source
  • Eagle@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    I watched a clip the other day of someone using a syringe to suck out a splinter, I’ve not had one since to try the theory out!

    source
  • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    That’s farked. I hate splinters and blisters. What a nightmare!

  Purchased a bottle of Bearface Canadian whiskey…it’s not great.

  On par with Aussie offerings and nowhere near the Scottish and Irish drams.

  Vaguely annoying that everything is so expensive over Christmas, even in countries that (mostly) don’t celebrate Christmas.

  Unseasonal burst of warm weather is over. Resume standard winter operating procedures. In bed, electric blanket on, rainy weekend ahead.

  source

  • just_kitten@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Ugh, not liking the overcast (maybe rainy) conditions ahead. Everyone who did their laundry this week must be so relieved.

    At least the temps don’t look so bad! More like Sydney temps. I think we’re safely past the 1C mornings and 11C maxes…? hopefully…

      August is never a trustworthy month. But fingers crossed…

  Today was meant to be a lecture catch up day but the day went by and I did fuck all. Woke up late and spent time with the dog. Dog spent the day yawning. Big mood. Went to work and felt anxious for some reason. Did a quiz. Now I am exhausted. Tomorrow, I shall redeem myself.
