  If I were a cheese, I would be a Gorgonzola. It’s not a popular cheese and can be quite salty with a bite from my blue veining. However, there are devout followers who love to crumble it on a boring salad to make it interesting.

    I don’t know about cheese at all, and only eat tasty cheddar, Colby, or parmesan (and don’t even think I’ve ever tried anything else), so I asked GPT:

    You are Gorgonzola. Complex, bold, and quietly powerful—because even the subtlest blue leaves a lasting impression.

    source

    • useless_modern_god@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I tend to gravitate toward the familiar as well.

    Feta. Salty and crumbles easily.

    I’d be that cheddar you get in the box off the non refrigerated shelf. Odd, tasty and melts a lot better than you’d expect.

    Ricotta. Soft, kinda sweet, makes things creamy, can be easy to forget about in the back of the fridge.

    source

      I love ricotta. I use it in my lasagna instead of bechamel

    I think I’d be a Red Leicester. Basic cheddar style with a bit of sauce mixed in.

  My Spotify wrapped has been disappointing me over the past few years. I used to have such an eclectic music taste, but getting older I’m listening to what’s familiar to me a bit too much. I don’t like the complacency.

  Going to spend the next few weeks saving some new music to listen over the holidays, and listening to albums I’ve saved over the year but never bothered to listen. Currently listening to Magdalena Bay - Imaginal Disk, for fans of synth-pop and prog-rock this one is for you.

  source

  • CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Spotify recommends stuff you already play so that’s why I ask the DT for new stuff. The only new artist that I really really like is Dua Lipa.

    source

    • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Dua Lipa, Chappell Roan, Charlie XCX, and Olivia Rodrigo are really great! Can’t recommend Chappell enough!!

    Ahaha, mine is out of control.

    Top songs were all songs in English by non-English artists: Thai, Cambodian, Taiwanese and Korean.

    My top artists were: Tanerélle, Limi, WIM, Sleep Token and Keshi. 🤣

    I forgot I listened to so much Tanerélle this year.

    But I listen to such a wide variety, it’s not really a surprise.

  • Pilk@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    IMO Wrapped doesn’t really handle eclectic tastes really well. Makes the results seem super random.

      Now that’s eclectic! I was expecting Chappell in my top 5, but no. I swear I thrashed her album this year.

    Discover weekly and the radio channels (where you click the radio button based on a specific song and it plays more songs like it) are how I find a lot of new music

    I put it on as background noise while I’m doing other things and if I start bobbing my head, I probably like a song

  taught tinyset to “cheers” last night. thought it was gonna take a while over a couple of days but he kept stopping eating dinner to do it. He doesnt always say cheers, but about 50% of the time he does. thank god i was drinking water or i’d be under the table!

    It’s funny how they copy you and how literal they are. I wanted my son to close the recycling so I closed it with my foot because that was easier for me, I thought he’d push it closed with his hands at his height. Nope, he had to try push the recycling closed with his foot as well

  IT HERE

  Opened the box under my camera as planned. No dramas. No scam. He seemed unhappy I didn’t give him the number over the phone, but I was waiting outside, saw him pull in, and started giving him the code as soon as he was ready. Unless he truly had bad intentions he can’t be upset about that

  All in all, I’m happy. Now my wifi needs should be future proofed for like a decade unless something breaks. Wifi 7 is too expensive, so it’s just wifi 6e, and only gigabit (with a single 2.5gbps port). Way over kill for my 100mbps FTTC plan, but I live in hope that one day I shall behold gigabit FTTP

  skipped the coffee today, no coke either. those 2 black teas are the pillar of my consciousness today but they are pretty wonky pillars. Sometimes I wonder how much coffee powers my mental health barriers and that just makes the days easier? Maybe thats a thread I dont really want to pull on.

  Got mesh setup :)

  As predicted, bit janky. Not sure I’d recommend to link deco mesh for somebody who’s not comfortable navigating unhelpful error messages

  I did come to the unfortunate realisation that chocolate topping I thought was empty (and closed) spilled onto a laptop I had running an ArchiveTeam warrior and BOINC projects. It’s probably been seeking in, basking in the hot cpu for 2 or 3 days

  I isopropyl’d as much as I could, but I’m not confident in laptop disassembly. Now debating if it’s worth taking it to a repair shop to get a proper scrub done, or hoping my surface level (plus whatever IPA seeped inside) fixes it

  Today has been really rough for anxiety. Everything is hard right now and it’s a real struggle to cope. I caved and napped but at least I saw some sun and that will help nudge me towards the daytime.

  Melbcat gets her b shots tomorrow and I’m really nervous about learning to do it.

  The alyssum seeds have a best before of August… guess I’ll see if they sprout. The nasturtium should be fine. There’s an abandoned patch of earth that’s technically mine that I could sow directly into but I kind of don’t want to go out there because of unprotected proximity to a violent crazy neighbour and cooked passers by.

  I might sow them into a container until they’re stronger then either plant them fast when the coast seems clear - or use recycled containers as pots. Or see how well they fight it out with the invasive grass that’s taken over what little soil I have in the yard.

  I would have preferred these be native plants… Just trying to get some pollinators and good bugs in here and using what I could easily get my hands on.

  I might spritz the zucchini with very weak soapy water, maybe like a drop of natural dish detergent, then water it off tonight.
