Got a delayed buttock / hamstring injury from moving concrete the other day.
No-one expects the Spanish inquisition delayed buttock injury.

Our chief weapon is buttocks, buttocks and glutes, glutes and buttocks. Our two weapons are glutes and buttocks, and ruthless hamstrings. Our three weapons are glutes and buttocks and ruthless hamstrings and an almost fanatical dedication to the arse.

It’s nice seeing people’s Christmas trees. I myself don’t decorate because no kids and can’t be bothered. There are a couple of houses nearby that do lots of lights and I look forward to them putting their decorations up. So to all the decorators out there, thankyou for the Christmas spirit, sincerely from the non-decorators. We appreciate it.

It ain’t good I tells you. It ain’t good :(

can I just add , this weather is really shitty for humans
but it’s good for bread making so today I will be making a dozen olive bread dinner rolls and I’ll add a cup of warm milk to the mix to make it extra soft, tender and milky white.

Back from shopping. Soooooo humid. Preston market is crazed, they had the misting spray on to cool people down - in close to 100% humidity. Not terribly effective.
Side note : found a lonely block of frozen tofu at the bottom of the freezer. I’m bored with my usual marinades so any suggestions? I usually do either a curry paste based one or a standard soy/mirin/chilli one.

I ❤️my Teriyaki Sauce:
1/2 cup low sodium Tamari (or soy sauce)
3/4 cup pineapple juice
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
5 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 teaspoons grated garlic
1 teaspoon sesame oil.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the Tamari, pineapple juice, vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, garlic and sesame oil. Whisk to combine well.
Bring to a boil then reduce the heat to medium low. Continue to cook for 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Remove from heat to cool and set aside.

Place is looking a bit more habitable, wfh desk setup, still very cluttered and need to get rid of the poang footstool (chair in bedroom piled with crap) which will open up more space.
Let’s hope my plants will look this lush over the next 6 months! These are the survivors after many deaths (and much neglect in a sunnier place).
tropical
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Holy shit that looks fucking amazing!!!
just_kitten@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Thanks! It is nice looking at the plants from the couch (where I took the photo). Starting to feel cozy. It’ll definitely look nicer once I get rid of the footstool and unpack some of the books.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 year ago
you’re an inspiration 🙂
StudChud@aussie.zone 1 year ago
That’s amazing! 😍😍😍 You are a fantastic home decorator!!
just_kitten@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Aw thanks, I definitely have not been trying hard here, just working with what I have. Sometimes a small space forces you to get creative…
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 year ago
So what’s everyone doing tonight?
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Drinking beer in my armchair and playing games
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Babysitting. So watching minions probably. Party on
Duenan@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Not babysitting but I just did Mario Brothers movie.
tone212_@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Putting up the tree with beers, not sure about mixing alcohol with untangling and placing Christmas lights but let’s see what happens.
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Staying in with Minipeelers and trying to decide on a movie to watch.
TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone 1 year ago
This mob is playing at Shotkickers tonight. Heard them before and they’re pretty good most times. Cover charge though. Shotkickers does a decent feed too. Haven’t yet made up my mind to go.
magic machinebacon@aussie.zone 1 year ago
work
Duenan@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Probably put on the WAFL finals tonight with pizza.
Rest of the time I think I’ll be just trying to pass the time.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 year ago
cooking and cleaning, if I’m lucky I can do some reading or watch a movie
Llabyrinthine@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Now starts the Xmas parties. Had a stupid headache before so I’m hoping I’ll feel better to go to a night I’ve yet again already bought a ticket for.
Beverages may or may not be enjoyed.
Am also in an Uber right now who may be taken the crap route. 😑
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Beverages help everything.
And seriously, I’m so over shitty uber drivers. Can’t foolow a route, drive like shit etc
dumblederp@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Slept straight through the night. ~10pm-5am.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Two breakfast day today 😍 scrambled eggs on toast with avo first. Then cafe at 1130 W my friend to play some chess and have a bagel and coffee

briongloid@aussie.zone 1 year ago
We’ll go with this one, the daily threads have been creeping too far before the day they’re for.
I’m fine with a little early, it’s better than too late.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Shoutout to the time I had a nap and woke up at 6pm thinking it was 6am and made a new thread thinking no one else did
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 year ago
😹
StudChud@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Hahahahahhahahaha
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Brion, are you volunteering to stay up til 12 every night to start the thread?
Baku@aussie.zone 1 year ago
I can probably do them most nights, but I’m weird about doing things in what I perceive to be “the right way”, so only post exactly at, or after, 12
I liked the idea of checking in a few hours before and working out who’s available to post it, but Nath (I think) told me to stop asking, so I did
Duenan@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Not sure what happened but sometimes we have to make it early because we have to do it manually and it was taking a toll on people stating up when they needed to sleep.
In the interests of looking after people that’s the concession we arrived at to look after people so in the grand scheme of things it’s not a big problem.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Paloma time!! Cheers, all!

Blue skies, smilin’ at me … for the first time today.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 year ago
I don’t understand how people can eat a hsp in one go. I have a small one and this is at least 3 meals.
just_kitten@aussie.zone 1 year ago
No xmas tree but bI’ve assembled the bookcase after much effort…
rant at self
…and stupidly not trying to look up what it was beforehand (it’s an old mid-2000s model of IKEA Bestå shelf, the label was barely legible). In doing so, tried doing it the wrong way around entirely and irreversibly snapped the tip of 6 cam lock screw/dowels that are discontinued (114928), on one entire side. The sides and centre part of the shelf no longer lock onto that side. I’ve put the working ones facing the bottom so it still stands, thankfully, but it means this shelf isn’t even worth giving away for free when I move out, it’ll have to go to the tip. Even though there’s a replacement part on thingiverse, I don’t have access to a 3d printer and it’d take a lot of effort to dislodge the old snapped ones, plus I’ve badly scuffed the edges of the bookshelf after all this wrangling.
Really annoyed with myself because i hate sending shit to landfill out of my own carelessness, but I’m going to have to just move on (and remind myself at least my consumption and waste ends with me).
At least the bookshelf is still usable for now and I can start moving shit onto it so I can finish unpacking. And it’s probably had a good run. Still, feeling low… need a win… that doesn’t involve spending money…
it ain't much, but it's honest work
tone212_@aussie.zone 1 year ago
The amount of sales-related emails and texts I’ve been getting is staggering. More than any previous year I feel. These businesses ask for a mobile for an online order and then it gets used to spam promotions. Mass unsubscribing is in order.
TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Errrrgh. Morning. It’s raining. And I have to do a big shopping. Errrrgh. Does anyone sell intravenous coffee?
just_kitten@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Hectic rain on its way, thank goodness - it’s been so warm and humid overnight!
Gonna have a bit of a lie in and then start on moving around shit in the living room and unpacking that stuff once and for all. And putting together the damn bookshelf.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 year ago
It was worth going out!
Was decent and Defs feeling a lot better despite not having heaps in common with the people.
Time for leftover HSP, Cat cuddles and PS5
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 1 year ago
I’m going through my social media profiles retrieving anything I might want to keep. Perhaps a vpn might help me keep them but then if I get caught that’s it.
I’m not expecting many people with weaker ties to keep in contact if I close them.
Ps. This isn’t actually going to protect children, just drive them underground and into unregulated spaces. It’s 100% a grab for control and cheap political point scoring on the part of the Australian government
just_kitten@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Slowly trying to reorganise my living room and unpack in bits and bobs. Realising how goddamn little space this place has sigh. Can’t fit my wfh desk and my bookshelf on the same side of the room without the bookshelf completely blocking access to the blind cords and window winder… unless I have my desk facing the window but that seems like a really bad idea. Then again, I doubt I’ll be wfh that often. It would help if I didn’t have all these damn boxes in the way…

I made a big batch of chicken stock today. Seven serves in the freezer for future soups. Also a load of scraps & soft bone in the dehydrator for future dog food.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Today is the type of soaking rain that is great for the garden. Pity my garden plan is to pull out almost everything currently there and put in some new plants that have not arrived yet!
Oh well, I do have some tomatoes that will be enjoying it, along with the potatoes I planted yesterday.

Sleep? What a novel concept.

Here’s mine for this year which fits the mood

That yew tree has seen 150 xmasses. Great grand parents would be rolling over in their grave if they saw that.

I like the idea of a poisonous Christmas tree 😈

Holy shit that is brilliant! Compare with my laughable effort

The mirror ball is genius!

It’s possible that it stays up permanently 😂

This is both too much and not enough

Well , you’re half right
